ENNISKILLEN has lost another of its popular characters this week, with the passing of Eugene Kelly from Hillview.
Best known as a founding member of Fermanagh’s successful Talking Newspaper for visually impaired people, Eugene and his guide dog friends were a familiar site around the town as they made their way together.
A true Enniskillener, Eugene was born between the bridges in Queen Street in 1934. The son of Paddy and Mary-Jane Kelly, Eugene was the youngest of eight children and he often told stories of how the family lived off the fruits of the lough.
