James McHugh Remembered | Cork News

A heartbreaking tragedy struck Cavan this week when James McHugh, the legendary 1992 All-Ireland-winning Donegal footballer, died in a car crash at age 62. His wife Noreen, also in the vehicle, suffered critical injuries and later passed away. The collision occurred on the N3 near Virginia just before 2 PM Monday. Gardaí are urgently seeking witnesses or dashcam footage from 1 PM to 2 PM that day. Tributes have flooded in, honoring James not just as a sporting icon but as a devoted family man and proud Kilcar native — the first player from that historic 1992 team to die. His legacy lives on through his courage, storytelling, and the indelible mark he left on Donegal GAA. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
