It is with the deepest personal regret that I learned of the death, on Sunday 27th June 2021, of Mr Rory Long, Brittas Road, Thurles, Co. Tipperary and Glasheen, Co. Cork.
Mr Long sadly passed away, while in the Republic of the Philippines, in Southeast Asia.
The dearly loved and treasured son of Matt and Jacinta, beloved brother of Mary, Barry, Evan and Denise; the passing of Mr Long is most deeply regretted by Jen, Mags and Pa, by his aunts, uncles, and cousins, by his adoring nephews and nieces Sophie, Emma, Cian, Darragh, Adam, Sam and Zach, by his extended family and his many, many friends and neighbours both at home and in the Philippines.
Requiescat in Pace.

Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust.
This fund has been established by Mr Long’s family to support the extraordinary work of the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust, https://kevinbellrepatriationtrust.com, without whose support it would have been almost impossible to repatriate Mr Long‘s remains in the present world circumstances. It is the most wonderful organisation, solely dedicated to the repatriation of Irish persons where difficulties arise in doing so. It is a charitable trust completely dependent on voluntary contribution and it is our hope that this fund will assist in furthering their mission. Thank you, on behalf of the family and on behalf of all those who have and who may benefit from the trust.
