Thanks for Jeremy Burke fundraiser


Thank you to my wonderful friend and neighbour Orla Douglas-King who celebrated her 50th birthday recently and had a fundraiser in memory of our beautiful Jeremy, writes Louise Kelly. Orla’s endeavour raised a whopping €3,402.30. 
It was a bittersweet night so near to Jeremy’s 1st anniversary but the most wonderful thing to witness and I am so thankful to have had the strength to be there. This money will go a long way to helping some CPC students further their musical careers as well as supporting charities close to our hearts. 
A word of thanks to the following to Cllr Chris Pender for volunteering his time and reducing the cost of hiring the venue.
Also for the support with hampers and prizes from the following in Kilcullen — Burkes Pharmacy, Centra Kilcullen, Fallons Bar & Restaurant, O'Connells Pub, McTernan's Pub, Bardon's Restaurant, Stina Flowers, Nolan's Butchers, Eurospar Kilcullen, The Spout Bar, the Hideout Restaurant, Lily O'Brien Chocolates, Cai Palileo, Jim Kelly, Liz Deegan Hairdresser Ballymore, Pat and Lorraine Kelly, and all Orla’s friends and family in helping to organise the event and Ann Delaney for helping on the night.
And, of course, Orla herself and husband Mick for their ongoing kindness, support and selflessness.
