Whenever Rialto Gaels are mentioned, you immediately think of Brian Gregg.
My first memories of Brian date back to the mid 1950's.
Every Friday at lunchtime we would go outside the school gates and Brian would be there every week without fail, leaning against the small wall which faced you when you turned left after coming out of the school
Surrounded by an enthusiastic group of football and hurling mads fellas, Brian would arrange who was meeting where for all the matches over the weekend.
All over the years (and we are now talking 50 years) Brian has always made a point of keeping in touch with as many of us as possible. I don't know anyone who knows as many people as this man.
If Knighthoods were awarded in Ireland Brian would have been officially Sir Brian a long time ago !
On behalf of the Team of '59 I would like to thank Brian for all the time and effort he has put in over the years, it is very much appreciated by us all.
