FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF FRANCIS GERARD O'SHEA

50 years on

Don’t worry tomorrow will take care of itself, a line from the gospel I quoted in the last article and perhaps a fitting epitaph for Francis Gerard O’Shea. He left this world laughing fifty years ago today. I was in Form three at CBC Warrnambool and he was teaching Grade six and among his students was my little brother Pat.We got the news around 8.30am on a Saturday morning June 29^th 1968 as we were preparing to go into Warrnambool for the usual Saturday morning games of football.
