Glentoran Football Club was sorry to hear of the sad passing of lifelong Glenman, Gary Cowan.
Gary joined the Ballymacarrett Glentoran Supporters Club as a teenager at its founding in 1975. Sadly, Gary will not be with his club to celebrate its 50th anniversary next year.
Ballymac Chairman Thomas Sewell spoke to www.glentoran.com about his friend: “Gary was a founder member of the Ballymac, giving 49 years’ great service to the club, including the past 20 years when he held the post of Club treasurer . Gary never missed watching the Glens, no matter where they played. Year after year Gary travelled all over Europe to watch his beloved team. He was a member of the Northern Ireland Programme Committee and stood and sold programmes at Northern Ireland home games. He also travelled to see NI play at the 2016 Euros in France and he also loved his trips to Millwall with his two sons. He will be very sadly missed by all his good friends in Ballymac GSC and all around the Oval. Rest in peace Gary.”
Gary was the beloved husband of Karen, much loved son of Nadia and the late Ken, loving father of Glen, Tom and Emma, devoted granda to Lara and Lila and brother of Janice and Gregg. Everyone at Glentoran sends deepest condolence to all of Gary’s family and friends.
Gary’s funeral service will be at 2.40pm on Wednesday 7th February at Roselawn Crematorium.
