Funeral arrangements announced for Lord Henry Mount Charles
Funeral arrangements have been announced for Lord Henry Mount Charles, the eighth Marquess Conyngham, of Slane Castle, who died on Tuesday aged 74 after a long illness. Lord Henry will repose at Slane Castle on Tuesday, 24 June and those wishing to pay their respects are invited to do so between 3pm–7pm. The funeral will take place on Wednesday, 25 June at 12 noon in St. Patrick's Church of Ireland, Slane. Due to very limited space inside the Church, seating will be "reserved and allocated for family, with provision made for those outside". The family said they "would like to welcome those attending to sympathise after the service in Slane Castle". Earlier today the family of Lord Henry opened the gates of Slane Castle inviting members of the public to pay their respects and sign a Book of Condolence in honour of the late music promoter and custodian of one of Ireland's most iconic venues. Lord Henry was widely credited with transforming Slane into a globally recognised live music destination. His son, Alex, the Marquess Conyngham, said in a statement that the family had been "profoundly moved" by the public response to his passing. "We have been truly touched by the strength of public sentiment and are deeply grateful for the countless expressions of sympathy and shared memories," he said. "Dad's warmth, spirit and dedication to Slane, its people and its legacy forged friendships that extended incredibly far and wide." The Book of Condolence will be available to sign on the grounds of Slane Castle today and on Sunday between 10am and 6pm. "This will be an opportunity for all those who knew Henry, enjoyed the magic of Slane, or simply wish to express their sympathies to come together in his memory at the place he loved so deeply," the family said in a statement. They also expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support and requested privacy as they grieve.
