Clare Uilleann Piper Pleads For Return Of “Priceless” Stolen Instrument

A Clare musician says having her “priceless” instrument stolen the weekend her brother passed away has made the grieving process all the more harrowing.

Corofin native Siobhán Hogan has issued a public plea for her uilleann pipes, which were taken from her car in either Ennis, Limerick or Gort over Easter Weekend, to be returned to her.

The incident has caused particular distress to Siobhán as it coincided with the death of her brother Michael who passed away at University Hospital Limerick on Good Friday after spending 16 days on a ventilator.

She says as her instrument has given her great comfort in times of loss in the past, it’s especially painful to be without it now.
