Rev. Oliver Crilly

Due to Funeral Arrangements for Fr Crilly, 10am Mass on Monday is cancelled.
Tuesday Eucharistic Adoration is also cancelled.

It is with immense sadness that we learned this evening (28th June 2025) of the passing from this life into eternity of Fr Oliver Crilly. Just last week Fr Oliver celebrated the Diamond Jubilee of his Ordination to the Priesthood and we in Urney and Castlefinn feel tremendously blessed that he spent the twilight years of his priestly ministry among us. Even though old-age and ill-health slowed him down considerably in the past few years it was of the utmost importance to him to continue to exercise his ministry by offering Mass in St Anthony’s Oratory in St Mary’s Church on Monday and Friday mornings.

Fr Oliver will be missed in all parts of our parish but especially, it should be acknowledged, by the congregation of St Mary’s Church and the people of Castlefinn who had such great affection and admiration for him and of whom he was so immensely fond.

Might I say how greatly I appreciated all the advice, counsel, help and support he gave me since my arrival in Urney and Castlefinn almost six years ago but especially since I became the administrator of the parish in 2020. I will miss that, of course, but also our conversations about the state of the Church and the world, his reminiscences of his various ministries, the love of the Irish language that we had in common, and also his hearty laugh.

He was a good friend to us all and life won’t be the same without him but as we say goodbye to him in sorrow we also joyfully send him onward to life without end in the presence of the Lord he served so faithfully.

Tar, a dhuine bheannaithe m’Athar, glac mar oidhreacht an ríocht a ullmhaíodh duit ó thúsú an domhain. Matha 25:34
