Goodbye Fr. Oliver
Kildalkey National School would like to say Goodbye to Fr. Oliver Devine.
The local parish priest for the last nine years, Fr. Oliver has been an integral part of the parish and indeed the school for all that time. Many students have passed through the school having received Holy Communion from him, having received the Sacrament of Penance from him, some worked with him in the Church and all would have had dealings with him.
The Chairperson of the Board of Management for that period, he oversaw many changes in Kildalkey National School. He was Chairperson when the plans for our new school were developed and finalised. An enthusiastic and affable presence always in the school, he will be sorely missed.
This morning, the school gathered to wish Fr. Devine the best of luck in his new role in Westmeath. Miss Pykett presented Fr. Devine with a gift from the school staff and Cormac and Moya presented him with a git from the altar servers. Mr. Fox spoke warmly of Fr. Devine's contribution to the school and thanked him for all his efforts. The whole school, along with many parents and locals were present to thank Fr. Devine.
We wish Father Oliver all the best in his new parish. Go raibh míle maith agat, Father.
