New Irish Science Fiction Association

Dear Friends,

Frank Darcy, a well known and much loved science fiction fan, lost his battle with cancer and passed away at 6:30 on Wednesday morning. He is a former organiser of the Dublin sci-fi meetings, and has been running P-Con for the last few years.

Bad news: Christine Darcy just phoned to say that Frank died this morning at around 6:30 in Our Lady's Hospice in Harold's Cross. She said that it was very peaceful and he just slipped away.

He will be in Our Lady's Hospice in Harold's Cross until Thursday evening, when the removal at 17:30 to St. Agnes' Church, Crumlin. The funeral will be at 10:00 mass on Friday morning.

Directions to the church can be found at http://www.crumlinparish.ie/location

Frank regularly attended NISFA meetings for as long as his illness allowed him to. He will be greatly missed by all his friends.
We hope to see many of you at either the removal or the funeral.

The NISFA Team
