Cathal Forde - Funeral service - Friday April 13th

The club would like to thank everyone who came along to Cathal's funeral service on Friday night in Cricklewood. It was a very emotional occasion for everyone involved with the club and for Cathal's family members who were present. It was great to see so many from across the London GAA community and beyond joining us as we paid our respects to one of our clubmen. Cathal was flown back to Ireland Saturday morning and was buried after midday mass in Gort on Sunday. Some of the players and committee members also travelled for the funeral in Ireland. Gone from us in this life but never forgotten. RIP Cathal.

RIP Cathal Forde

Is it with great regret that we announce the untimely passing of Cathal Forde who died last night (April 10th) at the age of 28. Cathal was corner back on the Kilburn Gaels team that won the clubs first county title in 2010 and was very popular and well liked with everyone in the club. A native of Gort in County Galway, he came to London just under 3 years ago and has been a regular fixture in the senior side since he came along with his brother Niall. He is a former student of GMIT and was working as a site engineer here in London. Everyone at the club is deeply saddened and shocked by what has happened and our thoughts at this time are with his girlfriend Sheila and the Forde family. Ar dheis de go raibh a anam dilis. 

   

Cathal Forde who passed away at training Tuesday night.
