We are heartbroken to share that our beloved Shea McCabe has sadly passed away. A freak accident turned into our worst nightmare, his body was lovingly recovered thanks to the incredible efforts of the rescue services in Cork. We are deeply grateful to every person involved in bringing him back to us.

Shea’s body now needs to be brought home from Cork to Pomeroy, and we want nothing more than to lay him to rest with dignity and love. The costs of transport and funeral arrangements have placed a heavy financial burden on the family at a time when we are already struggling with overwhelming grief.

This tragedy comes after an incredibly difficult period for the family.

Our family lost Sheas brother Jason in October 2023 & our mother just 7 months later in May 2024. Coping with so much loss in such a short space of time has been unbearable for our family

We are asking for support to help cover:

• Transporting Shea home to Pomeroy

• Funeral and burial expenses

• The family also want to give back to the cork search & rescue team

. Support for his beautiful son Cahan (aged 3)

Any donation, no matter how small, will help ease the financial pressure so our family can focus on grieving and honouring Shea’s memory. If you are unable to donate, please keep Shea and our family in your thoughts and prayers and share this page.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, support, and compassion.
