To mark the 10th Anniversary of the ordination to the priesthood of popular Mulranny priest, Fr. Declan Carroll, a concelebrated Mass was celebrated in Mulranny Church on Tuesday evening and was followed by a reception in Nevin’s new function room. Many tributes were paid to Fr. Declan, on his many fine attributes and the huge crowds which attended bore testimony to the esteem in which he is held. A number of presentations were made to Fr. Declan and a special welcome was extended to a group who travelled from Innishboffin. Fr. Declan’s parents and family joined a very large attendance for the celebrations.
