This Working Life: ‘I love doing the Glasnevin Cemetery tour – I get to add new elements to it’
So many go straight from school into college and hate it. I took some time out and did some work and then found out what I was interested in.

“Down with this sort of thing.”
Today we remember one of Ireland's comedy greats, Dermot Morgan, who continues to make us laugh years later as the star of Father Ted.
His cremation service was held in Glasnevin Cemetery #OnThisDay in 1998, prior to burial at Deansgrange.

Today, we remember Grace Gifford Plunkett (b. #OTD 1888). Following the execution of her husband Joseph Plunkett in 1916, she became an activist, and used her skills as an artist to oppose British rule, and later, the Anglo-Irish Treaty. She is buried in #GlasnevinCemetery.
