Sean McGrath, a beloved grandfather and businessman, died from injuries sustained during the Omagh bombing in September 1998. His family described him as ‘kind to a fault’ and his son Conor highlighted his father's sociability and success as a baker, which included a partnership with Harrods. Mr. McGrath was known for his generosity, including donating surplus baked goods to charity. Despite initial hopes of recovery, he succumbed to his injuries after a traumatic three-week battle, leaving behind a legacy of kindness and community spirit that continues to resonate.
"One of his triumphs in the early 80s was making a deal with Harrods in London to supply a selection of traditional Irish breads, as he noticed they had breads from all over the world, but nothing from Ireland."
"I also had to collect dad's car from the car park behind Market Street. It had his shop's name on it, and it was a painful reminder of the life he lost."
