Helping to cut the birthday cake: with Bridie McGuire (left)

Congratulations to Bridie McGuire, Castleblayney, County Monaghan, who was 90 last Friday, 12th July. Her family made a ‘This is Your Life’ presentation to her. They asked me to fill the role of Eamonn Andrews, which I gladly did, in view of the link between us through my grandfather, John F. Smyth from Conabury. More details in The Northern Standard.
