Bravo Two Heroes

We can be heroes…

ercifully, the sun came back out after yet another shower today just as we met up with Fiona Roche and Delia Barry.

Neither was quite sure why we were meeting, so Fiona brought mixers and snacks.

And Delia brought her poitín flask. Just in case.

As it happens, we should have raised a toast or three this afternoon, given that these two much-loved ladies had each received a big chunk of the votes for this year’s Local Hero.

And rightly so, given that both Fiona and Delia spend pretty much their every waking hour making Greystones a sweeter place to live.

Fiona, Niamh & Delia WEDS22MAR23

Hollywood fave Delia with her sterling charity work – the latest being the knitting of four Aran sweaters for a GCS raffle – and awards magnet Fiona with her seemingly endless supply of drugs to ease our ticky hearts and troubled souls.

There are, of course, plenty of other local heroes in this town – as proven in 2021 and 2022 – and it’s important to let them know that the lucky people of Greystones appreciate their good works. And it’s important for us to once again thank Niamh O’Leary at AIB Greystones for sponsoring this groovy competition.

Congrats to Delia and Fiona, and to all those who got a shout-out in the poll this year.
