A DAD-of-three who died while playing in a Christmas sports event on St Stephen’s Day was an out and out family man with “a larger than life character“.

The #sudden #death aged just 45 of Jamie Wool, from Tivoli in Cork City while playing for #Mayfield GAA has shocked the entire community.

In a fitting tribute Mayfield GAA club described Jamie as “an incredible person who lit up every room he entered”.

They state on the club’s website “It is with great sadness we announce the sad death of Jamie Wool.

“A former club player, Jamie’s incredible wit always lit up every room he entered. Never one to shy away from a sing song you always knew the banter was’nt far away with Jamie about.

“His spectacular appetite for work was always clear to see and his work around the community will be sorely missed. His work on Pitch For Pitch was only one of many things he did for our club.
