Clodagh Magliozzi

A light went out on our road in Beechwood Lawns with the recent passing of Clodagh

Magliozzi bright beautiful and loving.

For her parents Dave and Deirdre her siblings Laura, Daniel and Anna their

sadness and pain are immense as they struggle to come to terms with the loss of

Clodagh and the void that is left by her absence.

The family were deeply moved and comforted by the support they received as family,

relatives, friends and neighbours from Rathcoole and surrounding villages came to

offer help support and sympathy. Children from the local hurling/camogie club, school

and the choir lent an air of quiet dignity as Clodagh was laid to rest on June 17.

Clodagh in her short life was loved by all who knew her but most especially by her

parents, siblings and family. She had loads of personality as we see her dressed in her

princess dresses and rubber boots as she stamped about in rain puddles in Rathcoole

Park. She loved to admire and rub every dog that passed her way.

She was cherished in Happy Feet playschool by the teachers, her pal Erin and all her

other little friends and she loved going there. After school and homework in the eve-

nings our families would descend to the Rose Garden in Rathcoole Park and make it

our playground, Clodagh in her purple coat and blue bumble bee bike or in her dress-

up dresses would seek out her pals Erin and Ali. The older kids would play ball. The

mothers would stand discussing the events of the day, keeping a watchful eye,

interrupted by an argument over a pram, doll, bike or bang of a ball to the knee.

As our kids grow older and move to secondary school, these days in the Park will be

less, but Clodagh you are an integral part of these memories for us, as we watched

and you played in a corner of the rose garden with your pals, putting a smile on our

faces.

Is Santa coming to town?

Santa IS coming to town. There was quite a good attendance at the Christmas lights

meeting in the Community Centre on the 17th July. Many volunteered to continue

lighting up Rathcoole for Christmas. However we could still do with a few more

helpers, workers and co-ordinators and so we are going to have another meeting in

the Community Centre on Wednesday 18th September at 8:30p.m. to kick off this

year’s programme of work. All are welcome. Even if you don't want to help but have

some ideas you would like to share. We would welcome your contribution. Let’s

make Christmas 2013 the best yet.

Now is the time to act !

R.A.M.S - Trip to Bunratty

July 25th 2013

An early start was arranged—Depart time 8-00am! The words of a song came to mind “It’s a long way from Clare to here”. However we discovered that the new road network made the journey quite short. Heading down the motorway, we soon arrived at Rackett Hall near Roscrea. Here tea/coffee and scones “provided quite a lift” and set us up for the rest of the trip South West. In a surprisingly short time we were traveling through the Shannon tunnel and soon found ourselves in County Clare. While there had been some ’light showers’ earlier, we arrived in Bunratty Castle and Folk Park to brilliant sunshine. We were given a guided tour by a most “enthusiastic” escort who through “words and actions” opened our minds to a time when the castle was the stronghold of the O’Briens—Kings and Earls of Thomand; The vaulted hall with the minstrel’s gallery, once the living quarters of the soldiers is now used to entertain guests at it’s “Medieval” Banquets”. We marvelled at the beautiful French, Belgian and Flemish tapestries decorating the walls of the great hall where the Earls passed judgements from the “ Chair of the Estate”. Following the guided tour we had a pleasant time to ourselves to stroll around the Folk Park and village. We were all more than ready for a very tasty four course lunch served in the “Corn Barn”. Afterwards we had time to explore the other main attractions, e.g. “The School House” (memories of other days!), Tea room, Bunratty House, farmhouses from the earliest period and Ardcroney Church which was taken stone by stone from Ardcroney in County Tippperary to Bunratty Folk Park. Before departing many retired to Dirty Nelly’s Pub nearby where a sing along was greatly appreciated by tourists from abroad - The gathering in action!. The journey home ‘shortened ‘ by a visit to Hayes pub in Moneygall, (in the footsteps of President Obama). Refreshments were supplied and entertainment was provided by a now “well - sung– out R.A.M.S On the way home we ‘mulled’ over a most enjoyable and educational day trip. It was a full “12 hour day” as we arrived back at approximately 8-00pm. In the words of the song “The end of a perfect day”
