He has dedicated his life to bettering the lives of children across Donegal and Ireland.
Patsy McGonagle to be given Freedom of Donegal
And now Donegal is to say a small ‘thank you’ to sporting supremo Patsy McGonagle.
The Ballybofey man has nurtured athletes from an early age and encouraged them that to take part is to win.
He has also been instrumental in developing the Finn Valley Centre and put countless numbers of children through his hands.
Now Patsy is to be given the county’s highest honour – the Freedom of Donegal.
Patsy will receive the honour from Mayor Frank McBrearty at County House in Lifford on June 14th next.
The sporting leader will be surrounded by family and friends from Donegal and further afield as he collects his honour.
Patsy will become only the sixth person to receive the honour, joining singer Daniel O’Donnell, sportstars Shay Given and Packie Bonner, songwriter Phil Coulter and the Brennan family from Clannad.
