| IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT |
With great sadness, Cleveland's Irish Cultural Festival announces the passing of legendary musician Tommy Makem after a long struggle with lung cancer. Tommy had been a staple of the festival for decades, and no words suffice to express how much he'll be missed. To leave a note of condolence, or record your memories of Tommy, visit our guestbook and select "Memories of Tommy Makem" from the dropdown menu—a small, but fitting tribute to the man who has brought so much joy and music into our lives. | | |
