Charlie Donnelly is a 28 year old plasterer
from Fermanagh. His family have not heard from him since January 2005
- he was believed to have arrived in San Francisco around then along
with his cousin, Eoghan Charlton. His mother and sister made a special
trip out to San Francisco to try to find him and are now understandably
very concerned about his welfare and are pleading for any information
about his whereabouts.
Can you please pass this photo along to all your
contacts and connections - and if you happen to have any information
please let Charlie's sister, Rina Donnelly know. Her contact information
is donnellydennehy@comcast.net and her phone number in Boston is
(617) 803-5404. |

An informal social club has been launched that
enables GAA members in the Bay Area to easily inform each other
about any parties, trips, or other social events that they may be
planning and to which they want to invite people in all of the clubs.
It is hoped that this useful resource will help everyone to get
together and have a great time while skiing, camping, rafting, drinking,
or just getting to know each other better in general.
To access the club and join up, go
here. |
