    Sad to hear about mick's wife who passed away yesterday..may she rest in peace...

    Taken from the hoganstand .com

    RTE hurling analyst Michael Duignan is mourning the death of his wife Edel after a long battle with illness.

    Edel passed away at St. James' Hospital, Dublin yesterday. Her remains will be brought to St. Colmcille's Church, Durrow (on the main Tullamore-Kilbeggan Road) this evening with her funeral Mass taking place at 10am tomorrow.

    Before becoming a TV pundit, Michael had enjoyed a long and successful hurling career with St. Rynagh's and Offaly, winning All-Ireland medals with the Faithful County in 1994 and '98. He also played football for Offaly and managed the Meath hurlers to a famous Leinster SHC victory over Laois earlier this decade.

    The All-Ireland junior winning Offaly camogie team's planned visit to Michael's home town of Banagher last night was cancelled as a mark of respect.

    gutted to hear this, one of my favourite characters on the Sunday game and i think hes a very knowledgeable and honest man. met him in tullamore last year in a shop and he was very polite, he had 3 young lads with him, i assume they were his sons, 2 of them were anyway. all under 12. terrible loss for them, may she rest in peace.

    Terrible news, Michael is only 41 so I'm presuming that his wife was in or around her late 30s, so tragic to lose a wife and mother at such a young age.May she rest in peace, and God give strength to all of her family at this awful time.

    Met Michael on a few occasion in Cheltenham, pure gentleman. Heard a while back that his wife was ill, but I didn't expect to hear this. Terrible news.

    May she rest in peace.
