It was with a great personal sadness that I learned of the death this morning, Monday 10th August 2020, of Mr Patrick (Paddy) Doyle, No.7 Moyne Road, Thurles, Co. Tipperary.
Mr Doyle who made a total of three championship appearances with Tipperary between 1965 and 1966, was vice-president of Thurles Sarsfield’s and a former All-Ireland winner. A winner of seven senior county titles with Thurles Sarsfields, he also managed the Laois hurlers and coached the Tipperary minor team for some three years.
Mr Doyle passed away this morning, peacefully, surrounded by his loving family.
Predeceased by his beloved wife Kay, his brother Jimmy and his sister Olive; the passing of Mr Doyle will be most deeply regretted by his heartbroken children Karen and David, son-in-law Liam; Richelle; sisters Anna and Breda; his grandchildren Eve and Kate to whom he was devoted; nieces; nephews; extended relatives; GAA associates; neighbours and friends.
Requiescat in Pace.
