RIPA dark cloud ascended on our club and all its members when we heard of the unexpected death of Maurice (Mossie) Hyland R.I.P. last Wednesday, Mossie a proud club man, a player, a medal winner south and county, a referee, board member, and committee member, and a staunch supporter of the club he loved all his life, every single member of Cahir GAA Club want to offer their condolences to the Hyland family and extended family and friends of Mossie, our thoughts are with the Hyland family at this very sad time, May he rest in peace.
