Last year was the most turbulent of our lives, following the very sudden passing of our Dad & Mom's Husband - Peter Tobin.

However, since then we've learned that grief isn't always about sadness and tears, and the immense pain we feel is a reflection of the monumental love that housed each of our relationships with Dad.

We are lucky to be blessed with an abundance of memories and stories, which in the extra tough times we can call upon to lighten the load on our heavy hearts - turning tears of sadness into reminiscent laughter. Dad would hate for the fun, happiness, humour and positivity he brought into our lives to now be overshadowed by sadness of his passing and this is something we've thought about a lot over the last 9 months. How do we move forward whilst bringing the essence of the positive impact Dad had on those around him and his fun loving presence along with us?

So, in April we will be hosting a memorial fundraiser. A chance to make new memories, in Dads memory. A light hearted and fun filled evening, in which we hope you will join and support us in raising funds for some very worthy causes that are personal and close to our hearts as well as Dad's and most importantly honour the one of a kind character that is our Dad.

From now until then we will be fundraising for three exceptional charities where all funds raised will go directly to where they're needed most:

Suaimhneas - A Cancer support service, extending a helping hand to all those affected by cancer, including families, friends, and carers by creating a supportive and warm environment and providing emotional support, practical help, and information in a safe, positive, and confidential manner. Services include counselling, bereavement support, therapies and reflexology, mindfulness & yoga, bra & prosthesis fittings, and art groups. They aim to empower anyone who may journey with cancer with hope, dignity, and strength.

Julian Benson Cystic Fibrosis Foundation - dreaming big by working hard to open Ireland's first home away from home for children, adults, and their families living with Cystic Fibrosis. This home will be known as Tranquillity House and will be a haven of comfort for those who need it most. With your help, they can continue doing more for the 1200 people affected by CF in Ireland. Ireland has the highest incidence of CF in the entire world. With your donation, be part of a legacy that will serve the Irish Cystic Fibrosis community for many years to come.

Friends of Nenagh Hospital—Provides assistance and comfort to patients and their families at Nenagh Hospital. All committee members are volunteers and liaise closely with hospital management and staff to identify patient requirements that aren't always covered by the HSE, whether big or small.Recent donations resulted in the creation of the Gloster Suite, an exceptional facility that provides private and tranquil surroundings to end-of-life patients and their families. Its value is immeasurable.
