Priests and Seminarians, faculty and staff came together today in Renehan Hall to celebrate Tom Corcoran's 80th birthday and his 58th year in Maynooth.
Monsignor Hugh Connolly, President of the College, presented Tom with a plaque, carved on Tipperary Slate, honouring the special occasion.
In his reply, Tom spoke of the 10 presidents he has served since his arrival on Campus in 1951 during the presidency of Monsignor Edward Kissane.
