He led the Faithful County to Leinster success.
Former Offaly football manager Fr. Tom Scully was very well regarded by players from the 1960's and early 70's.
The Leinster title winning team manager in 1969 passed away yesterday.
Fr. Scully also guided the faithful county to the All-Ireland Final that year, a pre-curser to their first triumph two years later.
Offaly GAA Chariman Michael Duignan says his work away from gaelic games was also very impressive:
