ROSALEEN LONG RIP

Everyone at Bohemians wishes to extend our very deepest sympathies to the extended family and friends of manager Keith Long following the sad passing of his mother Rosaleen.

Rosaleen was a constant supporter of Keith throughout his playing and coaching career, and was rightly extremely proud of the huge role that he has played in rebuilding our club.

She was particularly proud to be present at those memorable evenings at the Aviva Stadium last season as Keith led the club on one of our greatest European runs.

She attended those games with her family, including Keith’s three daughters Jorja, Grace and Esmay, with whom she is pictured above.

We encourage all members and supporters to sign the online book of condolences for Rosaleen in solidarity with Keith and his family, and to let them know that they are in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time.
