James Kavanagh was murdered on the 31st of May 2004 outside the Irishtown House Public House. James was stabbed to death while sitting in a car waiting for a friend. Although the Gardai investigated the murder at the time, no witnesses came forward and the case was never resolved with no charges ever being brought against anybody.

James was the only son of Pat and Bridie and the only brother of Deborah, Sinead and Margaret . He left a fifteen year old daughter and a grieving family behind him after his untimely death at just 34 years old. Even though he died almost six years ago now, he is still fondly remembered by all his family and friends.

The Kavanagh family will not be able to end the grieving process until this is cleared up once and for all. For the family’s sake, if anyone out there has any piece of information no matter how small, please get in touch with Irishtown Garda Station on 01 – 6669600.

Or call Crimestoppers on 1800 25 00 25.
