DEATH

The death took place on Monday last of Noelle Kirschner, Hospital who was the music teacher in Emly National School. There was great shock in the community when the news of Noelle’s death became known.  She was a popular and inspiring music teacher who in a small number of years teaching in Emly school has left a marvellous inheritance and love of music in the children.  A group of senior children from the school played at Noelle’s Requiem Mass in Hospital church.
