Thread Name: Obit: Jimmy Murray, South Roscommon
Subject: RE: Obit: Jimmy Murray, South Roscommon
Martin thanks for posting this, I was 10 years old when accompanied by my elder brother Hugh[RIP],I seen the great Jimmy I had him point out the members of the great Roscommom team of the mid 1040s, Jimmy was the captain that day as he opened our local County ground in Armagh.
I met Jimmy in 1977 in O`Connell Street in Dublin, we were on our way to Croke Park to see Armagh play Roscommon, I still have the photo of Jimmy I took that day, a true gentleman.
May the soil of his beloved Roscommon rest lightly on one of Gaelic Footballs greats.
