Thanks Kev.

From: Michael Mangan

I would just like to express my thanks for all your efforts in organising the St. Brendan's 50th Anniversary Dinner Dance.
We had a great evening, and I know my Dad was very touched by the presentation of the Lifetime Achievement Award - thankfully he didn't get the chance to make a thank you speech.
I also believe you were involved with a presentation he received at the Town Hall earlier in the month.
I know my Dad has given a lot of his time over the years to helping people, and he's never looked for any thanks, but I know that he has had one of the best months of his life and is extremely proud that his work has been recognised.
Once again thank you on behalf of all the family for all your efforts, they have been very much appreciated.

From: Shirley

Thanks for the email and thanks also for your support of BHF and Lauren and Fi too.
Have a really happy and healthy 2010.
Take care

From: Lucy Frances Smith

You may remember I wrote to you in January to ask for a donation to be used in a raffle/auction to raise money for Breast Cancer. My family and I in association with Saint Kentigerns Social Club and The County Fermanagh Association held a charity night on the 1st of February. The funds raised will enable continued research so that one day we will beat cancer.

I would like to take this opportunity to give my heart felt thanks for your generosity. The evening was a fantastic success and with the help of your donation we managed to raise a grand total of £10,215!

All funds went to The Genesis Appeal based at Wythenshawe Hospital. The Nightingale & Genesis Prevention Centre is the only purpose built breast cancer prevention centre in Europe. Fundraising is essential to facilitate the new centre and to support the research projects and medical teams who are based there.

1 in 10 women will currently be expected to develop breast cancer in their life time. Genesis’ mission is to create a future without breast cancer by making 1 in 10, none in 10.

Once again, thank you very much for supporting us.

From: Martin Barnes

Just a little note to say again thanks to you and all your people for a wonderful night.
You looked after us really well and everybody thought the room was dressed brilliantly.
Please forward my personal thanks to all the team.

Hi Kevin

My parents have only just got over the shock of the surprise party.

Please pass on our gratitude to all the staff at St Kent's, they were ever so helpful and could not do enough to help. All who attended were very
impressed with the customer service they received from start to finish.

Thank you for also for keeping us in order with speeches and presentation
of the gifts etc (my relations from Ireland are still giggling that they
were only allowed one of each off the buffet and Father Tom's dog coming in
for a visit).

I wish you all the best for the future.

Thank you again

Hiya Kevin,
Well we're all done and dusted after a long sunny day's shooting in Connemara. Now I have to view all the material before putting it together to make a programme.

I just want to thank you and all your staff for your welcome and hospitality. You're a great man for the fixing! A real producer.

It was a pleasure, and I still can't get over the fact that you're not 65!
Just as well. Anyway, we worked hard but we had a good laugh as well.

Best wishes from Galway

That sounds absolutely fantastic, it seems that I've come across a brilliant deal in choosing your company to have the party in. I've taken a browse at the menu, my boyfriend is a vegetarian and so probably I will be selecting that. This is fantastic news. If possible, could you send me the address and general location of your club.
Thanks alot, you literally have made my day.

Kev,
Please pass on our thanks to all your staff for their hard work on the night and helping to ensure it was as good success.
I am contacting Christies this week to arrange the donation, let me know what I need to do about the shirt and where that money needs to go.
Below is a thank you message to everyone from Steve.
Thanks again for a great night and all your help.
----
Just thought it right i send an email to you all to say how overwhelmed i am at the generosity of you all, not only towards the Christie fundraiser for Prostate Cancer but also to myself.

My retirement came so sudden i didn't really have time to say goodbye in the way i wanted to and also thank the many people that donated so much money towards the fundraiser which at this moment as i write stands somewhere in the region of £4,350 with some other donations still to come, id like to thank all the people who bought raffle tickets and those that bought tickets for the "do" which in my opinion and everyone else's that ive spoken to since was a fantastic night that i will never ever forget for the warmth and good feelings towards me, so thank you all sincerly from a still can't belive it me.
I need to say a special thank you to several people that went a million miles out of their way to make the fundraiser night such a massive success that ran so smoothly you'd think they'ed been doing this sort of stuff all the time rather than in their own time after work, so a special thank you from the bottom of my lil heart goes out to, Sarah O'Meara, Paulette Harrison, Beth Griffiths, Kerry O'Donnell, also to Shelagh (singer/friend) for her time and donation, Deb Foley for the kind donations, Sue Kane for all her efforts with the Town Hall venue and last but not least my lil Mum for her generosity too.
Yes there were plenty others that helped out but those above deserved special mention as i know how hard they worked to make the night the night it was and one im never gonna forget an i feel lucky to be able to call them my friends too.
I also want to thank Kevin the guy that runs St Kentigerns Social Club for all his efforts in making his contribution to the fundraiser with all his help in the aution and making sure the bar was well run and for letting us have the venue for free and also printing the tickets, i just want him to know im so gratefull and i doubt we could of had a better place to hold the event, thanks Kev.
I can't really put into words how overwhelmed i am at all this, everyone that contributed to this event and mega amount raised shows there is so many nice an kind hearted people around, so can you all pat yourselves on the back and let me say a big THANK YOU once again to you all, i really appreciate what you all have done and will never ever forget it.
Thank you from a very humble man..
Steve.

From :Mr and Mrs Linda Fitzpatrick.
