Patrick O'Hanlon is a well preserved man and I would love to make an appointment with him and see if we are compatable.
A special meeting of Greenore/Cooley Fisherman’s Association took place in The Blue Anchor, Bellurgan, on 10 April 2006, commencing at 8.00 p.m.
Present were Archbishop Michael Desmond Hynes OMA, chairperson, Sean Crudden, secretary/treasurer, and Damien Hulme.
Apologies were received from Pauline Merrigan and Pat O’Hanlon.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read by the secretary and adopted.
It was agreed that work was needed on membership and that we would produce ourselves a membership card.
The secretary read a letter, dated 7 February 2006, which he had written to Paddy Donnelly, SEO, Louth County Council, about "The Cutting" in Greenore. There was no reply. It was agreed to try to get The Greenore Residents Association represented at a meeting of The Ruling Council of Greenore/Cooley Fisherman’s Association to be held in Greenore on 22 May 2006 at 8.00 p.m. Garret Kennedy and John Daly were mentioned.
The secretary read a two page letter from Dr Caroline Roche of Aquafact, Galway, concerning the Oriel Windfarm project and the map included with her letter was studied in detail. The chairperson said there were no objections. "It’s out far. Cooley will not be worrying too much about it," he commented. The secretary was instructed to reply to Dr Roche.
The meeting adjourned sine die.
A meeting which had the character of an annual general meeting of Greenore-Cooley Fisherman’s Association (GCFA) took place in The Blue Anchor, Bellurgan, Co Louth, starting at 8.30 p.m. on Tuesday 12 February 2008.

The next meeting of GCFA was fixed for Sunday 6 April 2008 commencing at 11.00 a.m. in 5 Anglesea Terrace, Greenore, Co Louth.

Patrick O'Hanlon, The Farm, Greenore, Co Louth, passed away quietly in Carlingford nursing home, having received the last sacrament, on Monday 7 July 2008. His funeral - a surreal and lovely affair - took place in Boher Church on Wednesday 9 July 2008 starting at 11.00 a.m. Fr John McKeever CC celebrated the funeral mass and Fr McParland PP assisted him at the graveside. Baritone, Henry McCloskey, sang the hymns at mass beginning with "Nearer My God to Thee" and concluding with the Tommy Makem song "Goodbye Carlingford, Farewell to Greenore."
Pat in recent years bought and ran a grey Ferguson tractor which he used for getting about on the roads and for towing his boat "The Belter." More recently still he purchased a brand new red Nissan Micra which he was well able to drive.
He lived in Greenore all his life working on the family farm, fishing and, later, for short spells in Greenore Golf Club and in "the port."
Pat was a softly spoken man, very understanding - in particular he understood the problems of those suffering from mental illness. Good company he was, in his own way, quite discerning and astute. An inoffensive man Pat was popular with all who knew him and he will be missed around the village of Greenore and other places he was wont to visit in Newry and Dundalk.
Pat served for a time as treasurer of Greenore/Cooley Fisherman's Association retiring from that office in 2006 when he was 80 years of age.
He was predeceased by his brothers James and John and by his sister Mamie.
