Peter Hannigan - RIP
It is with a heavy heart that we have to inform you of the passing of Peter Hannigan from a recent illness.
Peter was the lifeblood of the Irish Society and was beloved by all its members and those from the various clubs that used the Irish Society. It will be a much poorer place without him
Our deepest condolences go out to his family, Ellen, Jacqui, Shelley, Liam and Lisa.
If you'd like to pay your respects, the funeral is on Friday 13th Jan at St Anne's Church, Emmet St, Newtown at 10.30
Burial at Whenua Tapu cemetery (Just after Plimmerton on SH1) at 1pm
Messages can be left to the family in Peter's tribute book at www.tributes.co.nz
