The town of Navan will be in shock today at the announcement of the sudden death of Donal Reilly. Originally from Navan, Donal is from the well known Reilly family and a son of Daniel Reilly. The announcement today on rip.ie says he was in Beijing, China when he died suddenly.

Donal trained as an auctioneer and ran a successful auctioneers business into the mid noughties.  The Reilly family originally hail from Cannistown and Donal is a nephew of former Cathaoirleach and Fianna Fail councillor Tommy Reilly. We extend our sympathies to all the family on their loss. More to follow.
