A table quiz in memory of Gerry McCarthy and in aid of Galway Hospice took place on Saturday, 2nd December 2017 in Conneely’s Bar, Kilkerrin, Ballinasloe, raising €2,175.95, with additional donations made following the official cheque presentation. The memorial event was organised by Gerry’s friends, who said that Gerry himself loved table quizzes.

Thank you to everyone who took part, sponsored a prize, made a donation or helped in any way.
