The popular auctioneer presided over GVM rings in Abbeyfeale, Dromcolloger, Kilmallock and Rathkeale for the best part of half-a-century. 

Mr Deady passed away in April, 2025. His  loss was keenly felt by his bereft family, the farming community, GAA, golfing and badminton circles, and in his home and nearby parishes.

As well as raising money for the two very good causes, the calf sale will be an opportunity to remember Mr Deady, share stories and honour his memory.
