A vote of sympathy was passed at Tipperary County Council's monthly meeting today (Monday, July 8) to the family of former Tipperary Senior hurling goalkeeper Peter O'Sullivan from Cashel, who has died.

He is survived by his wife Joan, son Seamus, daughters Noelette, Siobhán, Laura and Catherine, sons-in-law Amlaoibh, Diarmuid, James and Seamus, Seamus’ partner Ann, grandchildren Áine, Diarmuid Óg, Ciarán, Mícheál, Sean, Hannah, Olivia and his Goddaughter Ella, sister Kit, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, relatives, neighbours and a wide circle of friends.
