Greetings to all fellow Stickmakers . It is with regret that I inform you of the sudden passing of one of our colleagues in the Celtic Stickmakers Club . Mr John Hayes late of Mill street , Blarney , Co. Cork was a popular member of our Club since its’ inception in 2006 , and his passing is a sad shock to us all . I would like to extend our heart felt sympathy to his family from the Committee and members of the Celtic Stickmakers Club on their sad loss .
