The funeral mass of a seven-year-old boy from South-East Clare who tragically passed away after getting into difficulty in a hotel swimming pool, will take place today.
Shay Lynch from O’Briensbridge was pronounced dead at University Hospital Limerick on Saturday afternoon following the incident at the Lakeside Hotel in Killaloe.
He was a first class pupil at Scoil Seanain Naofa in Clonlara and a member of Clonlara GAA Club, which have both paid tribute to him as a talented, loved and valued member of their communities.
Shay will be laid to rest in St.Thomas’ Church Grounds in Bridgetown after 11am funeral mass in St.Senan’s Church Clonlara.
He is survived by his parents James and Tania and sister Abi.
