The death has occurred of
Tony Langlois
The death has occurred of our darling Tony Langlois, North Mall, Cork (and Jersey) On October 12th 2024, unexpectedly.
Tony, beloved husband of Úna, proud father of Aislinn and Pascal; grandfather to Arlo, Auryn and Senan. Son of Roy and the late Anne, and brother to Jeff, Kate, Richard and Denise.
His extended family of brother-in-law and sisters-in-law, all his relatives, those he had special relationships with, and his circle of friends from far flung places including Morocco, Algeria, Liverpool, Belfast, France and the UK – mourn his loss deeply.
Tony had a wide ranging academic career as an ethnomusicologist moving into media studies for the past many and happy years at Mary Immaculate College in Limerick, where he counted colleagues as friends. His interest and passion for music, sound and vision brought him to the centre of artistic communities and his creative comrades include IndieCork Festival and the 13th Parish Film Festival. He was the catalyst and founder of both.
Rest in love and peace dearest Tony
