Probably the most devastating news a family can receive has been visited on the most decent of families with the news that their son at about 4 years old has been diagnosed with a rare and extremely serious malady.
The Church was overflowing tonight as their friends and neighbours and all who heard about the Rosary recitation crowded in and fervently prayed that God and Mary in their infinite mercy and compassion would see Their way to cure this most dear and loved child.
The bonds that are formed during childhood and in rural growing up were well illustrated as Brian Newman and Donal Daly ,home from the States and England ,were amongst the may who showed up in solidarity .
Donal recently brought home his daughter to make her First Holy Communion with the Dunderry kids of which my grand daughter Ciara was a celebrant also.
We are a close and deeply caring community indeed.
