There was widespread shock and grief in the Quay / Point Road community and beyond following the tragic death at sea on February 12th, 2012 of Stephen Fergus, Waterview, Lower Point Road, Dundalk. Born in 1963, Stephen was an outstanding footballer with Sean O'Mahonys, winning minor titles in 1981 and '82 and netting the first goal as the club captured the county intermediate championship in 1992. Sean O'Mahonys GFC provided a guard of honour at Stephen's requiem mass, where a huge congregation gathered in his honour.
