A fantastic evening of celebration was recently held in Tramore for Fr Richard O'Halloran as he celebrated his 25th anniversary in the priesthood.
The high esteem in which Fr. Richard is held was clear to see, with a packed church filled to capacity as parishioners from Tramore, Carbally, Dunhill/Fenor, and surrounding areas turned up in droves to honour their well-loved priest.
The evening began with a beautiful and special Mass, attended by many visiting priests and the Bishop of Waterford & Lismore, Most Rev. Alphonsus Cullinan.
After Mass, the celebrations moved over to the Glór Na Mara National School hall and the school are thanked for the use of their wonderful hall.
A beautiful milestone marked by presentations from the various parishes, plenty of laughter, and a very special moment as Fr. Richard cut his anniversary cake alongside his proud mother, family, friends & Parishioners.
Huge Congratulations, Fr Richard, on 25 years of faithful service.
