Dr. Tom Cavanagh

WLP was very saddened to hear of the passing of Dr Tom Cavanagh. Dr Cavanagh was a native of Cork with strong family ties to Waterford. A successful business man, philanthropist, educationalist and environmentalist. Dr Cavanagh set up the TOMAR Trust in 1994 and both have been huge supporters of the community & voluntary activity in rural Ireland.

WLP is proud to be a partner of the TOMAR Trust and wishes to extend its sympathy at this time to the Cavanagh family on their great loss.
