An Irish man and his English girlfriend have been killed in an accident in Qatar. Eamonn Morgan from Newry and Charlotte Sant from Manchester were members of the Qatar GAA club, who took to Facebook to confirm the news. “For the Irish abroad, a GAA club can offer more than the team – it offers a sense of community, a sense of family, a home away from home, and Qatar GAA is no different,” wrote chairperson Peter Crowe. “It’s with a heavy heart that we mourn the loss of two of our members, two of our friends, two of our family." Eamonn and Charlotte pictured together.  “I had the privilege of playing with Eamonn for the past year, an absolute gent, never to be seen without a smile on his face and the definition of a ‘character’ as we’d say back home."  “I also had the pleasure of training Charlotte for the past year, a sweet girl, who took to a new sport with more enthusiasm than you could ever ask for. “Eamonn and Charlotte will be sorely missed, people often don’t realise at home how much of a community can be built away from home, but I can tell you, sincerely, that Eamonn and Charlotte were very much central to the community that is Qatar GAA and it will be hard to imagine it without them." The Qatar GAA men's team.  “They will remain forever in our hearts and we are thinking of their friends and family back home.” A prayer service will be held in memory of the couple this evening and for two other people who are believed to have been injured in the accident.
