Family offer ‘heartfelt thank you to our quiz night heroes’

We want to express our deepest gratitude and appreciation to all the remarkable individuals who made our quiz night for the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust an exceptional success. It is with immense joy and gratitude that we thank each and every one of you for your incredible support.

First and foremost, we would like to extend a special thank you to Michael Duffy, the fantastic quizmaster, and his dedicated team of volunteers. Your unwavering commitment and tireless efforts were instrumental in creating an evening filled with laughter, excitement, and camaraderie. Your passion for the cause and the hours you invested in making the event a success did not go unnoticed. We are forever grateful for the extraordinary experience you provided.

Sincere thanks also to the management and staff of the Annebrook Hotel for hosting the event and providing great hospitality and service on the night.

To all those who attended the quiz night and those who generously donated online, we extend our deepest appreciation, not forgetting the many local businesses for gifting such generous raffle prizes. Your presence and contributions made a significant impact, in raising funds and in spreading awareness about the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust.

The generosity and kindness displayed by every one of you have deeply touched the hearts of the Noone family. They are truly humbled and appreciative of the unwavering support they have received.

We are thrilled to announce that, thanks to your remarkable efforts and overwhelming generosity, we were able to raise an astounding €5700. This outstanding amount will go directly to the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust, providing vital support to those in need.

We would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the North Westmeath Cards Society for their separate contribution of €801. We extend our thanks to the entire committee for their hard work and dedication in organizing a successful fundraising event and donating that money to the KBRT.

It is with great delight that we handed over a total of €6500 to Colin Bell, Kevin’s wonderful father, on behalf of the Noone family in memory of their beloved Lorraine. Your support has not only brought comfort to the Noone family but has also made a lasting impact on the lives of countless individuals.

Lastly, we want to express our sincere appreciation to our local newspapers for their support in spreading the word about our Quiz Night and the Kevin Bell Repatriation Fund has been invaluable.

With heartfelt appreciation, Eileen Earley and family.
