On behalf of Duffry Rovers GAA and Camogie Club, we extend our deepest and most heartfelt sympathies to Peter, Kay, Dara, Aoife, and the extended Shortall and Doyle families, following the sudden and untimely passing of Rory Shortall.

Rory, a beloved son, brother, grandson, cousin, and nephew, was taken far too soon, leaving behind a profound sadness in the hearts of those who knew him. As a young member of our community, Rory was not only a cherished family member but also a dedicated and passionate athlete who proudly wore the Duffry Rovers jersey. His commitment to the game and the friendships he forged with teammates throughout the years will remain in the memories of all who shared the pitch with him.

During his time with Duffry Rovers, Rory showed an unwavering spirit, always giving his best for the team. His youthful energy, talent, and determination inspired those around him, and his sudden departure has left a gap that will be deeply felt by the club, his teammates, and his many friends.

As we come together to grieve, we also remember the many fond memories shared with Rory — his infectious smile, his dedication to his sport, and the joy he brought to everyone’s life. We also stand by his young friends and teammates, who have lost a peer and a brother-like figure far too soon.
