Just over a year ago I lost my best friend and Brother in Law John Perry very suddenly to a stroke just days short of his 50th birthday, and then at Christmas my Mother, Celine Rice, died suddenly of the same cruel illness.  On the 22nd August this year In memory of these two special people a large group of my family circle are climbing  Croagh Patrick, a mountain near Westport, Co Mayo, Ireland, in aid of Northern Ireland Chest Heart and Stroke.  This place was chosen as it's where my Mother was born and grew up and it was John's favourite place to visit.  The charity is of special signifigance to us so please give what you can to this very worthwhile cause.  Thank you.
