Remembrance Sunday 2019
The men and woman who organised the remembrance ceremony.
Jim Halpin who has done most to remember the fallen soldiers from North Kerry.
Taking the salute
Raising the tricolour
For me the two most spine chilling moments of the remembrance are firstly the reading out of the names of the fallen. These are local names familiar to us all, ancestors of local people who made the greatest sacrifice. The second moving moment is when that bugler plays the last post, bidding farewell to those who served.

Kanturk, My Home Town
We, Kanturk natives, are lucky to have a Facebook page dedicated to Kanturk Memories where people share photos and memories.
The above treasure is of a carnival in 1941. Goggin’s was one of the local mineral water companies.
I’m taking a trip down that Memory Lane tomorrow evening, November 15 2019 for my Ahern family are organising a Kanturk launch of A minute of Your Time in the Edel Quinn Hall at 7.30. I’m looking forward to meeting up with old friends and cousins. My cousin, Eugene Brosnan is going to play the music and my super caterer, sister in law is looking after the nibbles.. If you are in the area, drop in. It should be a good one.
