The GAA community of Tyrone is shocked by the news that former county goalkeeper Jonathan Curran has died at the age of 33.
He felt unwell at home this morning and was rushed to Craigavon Area Hospital.
Curran won three Ulster SFC medals and a Celtic Cross in 2008 as a substitute goalkeeper during the golden age of Tyrone football.
The Coaslisland clubman left the county panel in 2012, citing family commitments as his reason for walking away.
He was in goal for the 2004 Tyrone minor team that beat Kerry 0-12 to 0-10 in the Irish final, lining up alongside players like Colm O’Neill and Colm Cavanagh.
Curran won a Tyrone SFC title with Coalisland in 2010 before turning away from soccer a few years ago. He also played soccer with Dungannon Swifts.
Jonathan, a hairdresser in Dungannon, is survived by his wife Clodagh and two young children, Darsai and Neasan, his parents Anthony and Alicia and his brothers Louise and Stephen.
“The people of Coalisland and the club are devastated by the news,” club secretary Vinny McCann told RTÉ Sport. “There are no words.”
