It is with great sadness we heard today of the passing of Mervin Phelan after a long illness, born bravely. Our thoughts are with his wife Betty, sons Colman and Mervin, daughters Anne, Kathryn, Jacinta, Siobhan and Orla and the extended family.

Mervin had been a great servant to the Club including more than 15 years as a Club Trustee till 2014. In addition Mervin had been involved for a long time with the Howth-Sutton Lions Club.

Funeral Mass at 10am on Friday, February 2nd, at St Fintan’s Church, Sutton, followed by burial at St Fintan’s Cemetery, Sutton. No flowers. Donations, if desired, to The Alzheimer’s Society of Ireland, www.alzheimers.ie.

Rest in peace Mervin.
