A special mass is to be celebrated next week for a father of two that was killed in a road traffic incident in Knockatallon.
Rowell Ladao tragically lost his life in a bicycle incident in the early hours of the 21st of September.
He had recently moved to Co Monaghan on a work visa 6 weeks ago. An 'in memory' mass will be held next Wednesday the 9th of October at 7.30pm in St Joseph's Knockatallon.
Donations will be accepted at the Mass for Rowell's devastated family back home in The Philippines, to help alleviate funeral, and future, expenses that they will incur due to Rowell's untimely passing. A GoFundMe page has also been set up by the Knockatallon Community, who say their thoughts and prayers are with Rowell's young family at this devastating time.
