On behalf of Balbriggan Liaison Commemorative Committee we wish to express our delight and thanks for the great turn out yesterday to commemorate 1916 and to remember Sinéad Ní Fhlannagáin  De Valera. A special word of thanks to Deputy Eamon O’Cuiv TD and the extended Flannagan and De Valera Family for attending and unveiling the plaque.

It was a great day to celebrate our heritage and the participation of St Patrick’s Brass and Reed band and the Old Fingal IRA Commemorative committee certainly added to the success of the event. We would also like to recognise the great work done by Patrick Hickey of McNally Monumental for the work and design of the plaque.
