🇺🇸❤️ What an amazing story — and a wonderful visit to our café today! ☕️
We were delighted to welcome Nancy O’Grady and her husband Lyell, Nancy’s sister Colleen O’Grady and her husband John, along with their brother Tom and his wife Donna — all the way from the USA! 🇺🇸
The family are visiting Ireland to celebrate receiving their Irish citizenship, and what makes their story even more special is their connection to Fethard. 🇮🇪
With the help of our PP, Fr. Liam, they were able to trace birth and marriage records which showed their family connection to the Sayers families of Fethard.
They met with Fr. Liam in the café today to thank him personally for all his help. It was lovely chatting with them, and you could immediately see just how incredibly proud they are of their Irish roots. 💚
They absolutely loved our café too — and they’re now following us on Facebook! 🥰
And before they left, they told our Annette that if she is ever in their neck of the woods, she is to be sure to get in touch — they’ll give her the VIP treatment after the lovely welcome she gave them here at the Community Café today! ❤️🇺🇸
We’re getting around!!! 😂❤️🇺🇸
It was an absolute pleasure to meet you all. We hope you’ll make it back to Fethard again soon.
Safe travels, Nancy, Lyell, Colleen, John, Tom and Donna — and thank you for calling in to see us! ☕️☕️
