The late Michael Moore, of Knockowen Road in Tullamore, and formerly of Moyne, Templetuohy, Tipperary, who died on Wednesday. 'He had a rare gift': Former student's tribute to late Clara school principalA former student of Michael Moore, the late principal of Árd Scoil Chiarain in Clara, has shared a heartfelt tribute to him following his passing on Wednesday. Michael Moore was my metalwork and mechanical drawing teacher in Árd Scoil Chiarain in Clara, long before he became principal. Later, as principal, Michael carried that same calm, compassionate spirit into leadership. Thank you, Michael Moore — teacher, principal, encourager and gentleman.
