The funeral Mass of Anton O'Toole takes place this afternon in Mount Argus Church.
I first met Anton approximately a year ago. We were chatting a few minutes before I asked him where he had been at school.
When he told me he had been at Synge Street I asked him if he was the famous Dublin footballer he replied: " Ah, I kicked some ball when I was a young fella."
