Well done Hugh!

A lovely tribute to your dad. We'll pass it on to some in Barra....

A moving tribute Hughie, it's strange how little you know until hard work put in by people like you makes us more aware. Thank you.
Mum and Dad say well done too.

A very well done story of a true tragedy. We shall remember them.

Hughie,
A very moving history of your fathers happenings.
I am a friend of Don,Maureen,Ryan & Kathleen.
Don sent me on the link.
I will pass it on and promote it to others.

I'm more than a little bit impressed. A detailed and well researched account and a rather touching tribute to your father. I have to hand it to you - Good stuff!

Hughie, what a great job you have done. Now it's on the internet we can take dad's story with us were ever we go.
