The Meath Writers' Circle ~ Bridie Halton.
*The sad news of the passing of one of our long-time members on Friday was a shock to everyone. Bridie Halton was a member of our group for many years and will be remembered for her contributions and fund raising for the group. Her compilation of the poems of her cousin Felix 'Among The Breffni Hills' was a major undertaking, as many of them were not written down and the fundraising event for the launch of the book in the Knightsbrook Hotel in Trim in December 2014 was a night to be remembered and a brilliant success with all kinds of music and entertainment laid on. She also had a talent for recitations and their performance from memory. She will be missed. Her funeral takes place today in St Joseph's Church, Loughduff in County Cavan at 3pm. May she rest in peace.
