Sudden Death of Fiachra Mac Gabhann
It is a cause of great sadness that the National Folklore Foundation has lost a founding member of the organisation. Fiachra Mac Gabhann, was a staunch supporter of the recognition required to maintain awareness of tradition. He played a crucial and active role in the vision and delivery of the aims of the Foundation. His unique combination of wisdom and easygoing personality was both a joy and privilege to have experienced.
