Rev. Fr. Michael O’Leary:
Rev. Fr. Michael O’Leary , whose death took place last week was the longest serving Parish Priest Moyvane ever had. He came to Moyvane in September 1980 and retired to Knockmoyle, Tralee in 1998. A native of Killiney in Castlegregory, he was born in June 1919. During his time in Moyvane, he was an active and well-respected member of the community, supporting Moyvane GAA and helping to set up the committee that rebuilt the old Marian Hall. He was supportive of all parish activities and the turnout at his funeral was a testament of the esteem he was held in. His funeral Mass was celebrated by Bishop Bill Murphy, assisted by a large number of priests from the Diocese of Kerry. It was his wish that Moyvane be his final resting place and the people of the parish were happy to welcome him back. Sympathy is extended to his sister, Betty, brother, Sean, nieces & nephews.

GAA – Juniors:
Moyvane Juniors were very unlucky to lose out to Asdee by 1 point in the Final of the Intermediate North Kerry Championship played in Ballybunion on Saturday last. Both teams gave a fantastic performance in this tight and exciting game. Moyvane were first off the mark with points from Donal Leahy and Damien Flynn. Asdee scored 3 points and Cal Flynn brought Moyvane level at half time on a score line of 3 points each. Moyvane showed their best football in the second half and with 3 well taken points from Damien Flynn ended the game just 1 point down on a final score line of Moyvane 0-6, Asdee 0-7. Congratulations to the team, manager Oliver Carmody and his selectors on a very brave and entertaining performance. Moyvane team and scorers: Kieran Walsh (captain), Timmy Kennelly, Eoin Stack, Michael Woods, Cal Flynn (0-1), Oliver Carmody, Tom Keane, Kieran Stack, James Kennelly, Mike Greaney, Aidan Keane, Niall Mulvihill, Donal Leahy (0-1), Damien Flynn (0-4), Chris Foley. Subs: Niall Sheehan for Niall Mulvihill, Kevin Kennelly for Chris Foley, Patrick Finucane for James Kennelly.
GAA – Senior Fixtures:
