GAA Now

Watch this feature broadcasted on RTÉ's 'Thank GAA It's Friday' from 2015 which featured the late Peter Keogh who reflected on his love of Wicklow GAA and followed him working for the Wicklow People on a Championship matchday involving Armagh and Wicklow senior footballers. A legendary local GAA reporter for the Wicklow People newspaper and a President of Wicklow GAA for more than 20 years, Peter passed away this weekend aged 86. A native of Talbotstown close to Kiltegan, a small village in south Co Wicklow, located right on the border with Co Carlow. As he said himself, he was born a couple of weeks after the Kiltegan GAA club was founded in 1929, so he was born alongside his local club. Paying tribute to the late Wicklow GAA President, Uachtarán Chumann Lúthchleas Gael passed on his condolences to the Keogh family and all of his friends and the community of Wicklow GAA. "On behalf of the wider GAA family I'd like to offer my condolences to the family and friends of Peter Keogh. He served the GAA with distinction in variety of ways for so long and we are all saddened to learn of his passing. We offer our sympathies particularly to his daughters Josie and Breda.
