Sean O’Kane passed away in January 2022 following a brave battle against illness but such was his impact on life at the Creggan school that his influence is still keenly felt by pupils and staff. Mr O’Kane coached many successful St. Joseph’s teams and the esteem in which he is held was evident in the numbers present for a superb weekend of football which was a fitting tribute to the much missed English teacher . . .
