Saddened at the news of Seamus's passing.
Our deepest sympathy to the entire Mc Gowan family on the passing of Seamus. I have known Seamus for most of my life, to say he was a unique person would be a complete understatement. I’m not going to repeat what others have already correctly said about his contribution to Melvin Gaels and indeed the community of Kinlough and beyond, this is without a doubt the work of a modest legend. I can honestly say that Seamus was single handily the most influential and hands on person I have ever known in this community. He put a huge effort into the wellbeing of Kinlough and beyond. Seamus had three religions, his Christian faith, Gaelic football and Irish Traditional Music. After his family he devoted his life to all three. In my many years living abroad, no visit home was complete without paying a visit to Seamus McGowan and his beautiful wife Bridget. One had to make sure that you weren’t in a rush anywhere when you arrived at their home as you knew that the conversation would always get very interesting and the stories could last for hours. Until we meet again mo Chara, Slan abhaile. R.I.P. 🙏
Deepest sympathies and thoughts to all the family.

Such fond memories of Seamus & his ceaseless committment to community affairs in Kinlough. He was always selfless , fun & generous.
Its hard to now believe , but he travelled the countryside selling "tickets" to raise funds for the original local football field in late 60s.
