It is with real sadness that we learnt of the passing of Benny Russell yesterday evening, on his 88th birthday, an absolute gentleman to the core. 
In GAA terms, the measure of a person can be seen in the amount of time/years you give to teams that don’t involve any of your own kids, Benny gave it in spades and more.
It was great to see him one last time on the sideline just a couple of weeks ago supporting his granddaughter Shannon playing for the senior ladies team.
We extend our deepest sympathies to Terry, Shannon and the rest of the Russell family at this very sad time.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam 💚🖤
