Twenty-ninth anniversary of the passing of Garda Michael Joseph Lawless

Today marks a sad day for gardaí throughout the divisions, and retired members of the force,  as they remember their friend and colleague who lost his life in a road traffic collision twenty nine years ago. 

Garda Michael Joseph Lawless was travelling from his home in Ballyshannon to Dublin to a Garda Representative Association (GRA) meeting when his vehicle was involved in a road traffic collision near Cliffoney, County Sligo. He sadly passed away at the scene. 

Today garda marked the occasion by posting a moving message of remembrance to their social media site wherein they say they honour his memory every day.

Ar Dheis Dé go raibh a anam dhíl.
