Calling all the families, Murphy, Cannon, Duffy, Fogarty, Purcell, Murphy, O'Hanlon, McKay, Herlihy & Hegarty. You are all invited to the next Murphy family reunion. If you regularly read the Murphy blog you will know that Des & Sue have taken a step back from organising the reunions. Their experience & knowledge is second to none & they have agreed to help their apprentices! (did they really think we would let them off lightly haha). We have family members throwing their hats in with ideas & offers of help. This is great news. Des & Sue have been amazing over the years bringing our family closer together. It would be a crying shame to let all their had work fall by the wayside & not continue with the now tradition they began. Its up to us all to keep it going for years to come. OK gang come on lets all get into the spirit of it. How amazing to be part of a family such as ours. We may not see each other often but when we do its like we saw each other yesterday. Our children & children's children have formed friendships over the years .This alone is wonderful. The stories that have come out of previous reunions are amazing for eg 2 second generation cousins being at the same uni . After a casual conversation with each other re coming to Liverpool for a wkend found they where related & it was a reunion they where both coming home for.
We are hoping as many families as can will come & enjoy a fantastic weekend, great company, great venue, great food, great music (with surprising band members) great craic. Why not tie your weekend in with a trip down memory lane. See where our grandparents, parents ,yourselves once lived. Come & catch up with family you haven't seen for some time. We have an amazing wonderful city. Our city has always been open minded to change & development. If you have not visited Liverpool for some time you will be amazed at its beauty & splendour. We will be emailing /writing to those not using email to everyone in the next week or so with a full list of relevant info.
Regular updates will be posted on the blog thanks to Cormac
Much Luv Catherine & Clare (Hegarty McKay)
