Off Topic - A Bit of Personal Joy

DonegalMan

This time last year, many of you actively followed the story of my missing sister-in-law Attracta Harron and posted/sent messages of support which were a great source of comfort to the family.

It was a year past on 11th December that Attracta was murdered - though we did not recover her body until 5th April - which was obviously an emotional anniversary for us all.

Anyway, a piece of happy news in relation to all this, Michael and Attracta's first grandchild Michael Joseph Harron, to be known as Joseph, was born on 22nd December at King's College Hospital London weighing 7lb 8oz. (My dad was called Joseph and Attracta had a brother called Joseph)

Here's a picture for those who want to do the 'Oooh' and 'Aaah' bit

The family are doing as well as can be expected in the circumstances, this first son/grandchild/nephew has obviously helped them, the main thing now is to get the trial out of the way, hopefully before the summer.

Congrats to all concerned Martin.

Martin,

I know the deep impact Attracta's murder had on the town and this showed the high esteem she was held in. The new arrival will bring much joy and help the family through the rough times ahead.
