The sad passing of well-known business man Teddy Blaney occurred yesterday.
In a touching tribute, the President of Letterkenny Chamber of Commerce Gerard McCormick has this morning extended his deepest condolences on behalf of the Chamber to Mr Blaney’s family.
He said, “It was with great sadness that we learnt today of the death of Teddy Blaney, who was synonymous with the Milford Inn for many years and later the Blaney Group.
“His reputation for hospitality was known far and wide and Teddy was always a very innovative, ambitious and modest man who clearly loved working with people.
“Supported by his wife and all the family, Teddy was always smiling and welcomed us into his establishments over the years.
“Letterkenny Chamber was proud to have Teddy and the Blaney Family as members of the Chamber for many years and indeed Teddy was the Letterkenny Chamber’s Business Person of the Year back in 1997 and in 2008 he was entered into the Chamber Hall of Fame for his life long contribution to the business life of Letterkenny and Donegal.
“Our deepest sympathies to his wife Rene and the Blaney Family.”
Pre-deceased by his brothers Neil T. Blaney TD and Harry Blaney TD, he is deeply missed by his loving wife Renee, sons, daughters, sons-in-law, daughters-in-law, grandchildren, brothers, sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, relatives and friends.
Mr. Blaney will be reposing at his late residence from 3pm today (Wednesday). Funeral from there at 12:20pm on Friday, for 1pm Requim Mass in St. Eunan’s Cathedral, followed by internment in Conwal Cemetery.
Sincere sympathies are extended to his family.
