Clonoe parish priest Father Benny Fee has said he is honoured to be made one of four new canons appointed by the Archdiocese of Armagh.

News of Canon Fee’s - as he will now be known - new appointment was made public just in time for the church’s Easter celebrations.

“It was announced yesterday (Thursday, March 24) by the Archbishop of Armagh that he was appointing four new canons to the metropolitan chapter of the cathedral,” Canon Fee told the Times on Good Friday.
