AND remember: Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened! No Regerts! Let’s take a quick look Back, at On This Day in Irish HistoryOn 1 July 1681 - St. Oliver Plunkett, Archbishop of Armagh, was hung at Tyburn, after being found guilty of high treason “for promoting the Catholic faith.” He is the last person to be martyred in England. On 4 July 1921 – While awaiting truce with the English, Eamon De Valera ordered the American flag flown in Dublin to “emphasize the principle for which we are fighting.” On 12 July 1691 - The Battle of Aughrin, the most decisive battle of the Jacobite wars in Ireland, took place. It was won by the forces of William III. Over 7,000 warriors were involved in the battle. On 13 July 1886 - Father Edward Flanagan, founder of “Boys Town” in Nebraska, was born, in my own Co. Roscommon. One of the many great activities that occurred since we last spoke was The Ancient Order of Hibernians and Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians State of Ohio Convention, held in Cleveland this year. Patricia Lavelle, Ray McCann, Jim Kilbane, and Kevin McCluskey chaired, and an outstanding team from the Cleveland ladies and two men’s divisions located in Cuyahoga County threw a flat-out bash – too fun and too what happens in Cleveland, stays in Cleveland embargoed to detail here. It was on Fire! Congrats to all involved in putting on the first in-person convention in Cleveland post-COVID. Well Done! If you are interested in learning more about the Hibernians, the largest Irish Catholic Organization outside of Ireland, with an active and prolific mission of helping others in so many ways, This is your lucky day! I am delighted to introduce our guests today, iIrish Madigan Muses Columnist Marilyn Madigan, and Convention Co-Chair Patricia Lavelle.  Marilyn is also the National VP for the LAOH. *** If you are interested in finding out more, contact iIrish Madigan ...

AND remember: Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened! No Regerts! This morning, we buried my sister Noreen. To our listeners, thank you for all if the hugs, well wishes, shared stories and friendship. At her passing, she was surrounded by all of her kids, grandkids, siblings and our parents. She said several times as we all prayed together, that she was at peace, and I believe that she is. We each told of what will always remind her of us, of how we know she is near when we see it, and she smiled as best she could. She could hear our conversation, tho her oxygen assisted breath was labored. “I am fine, I am fine” she said. We cannot do justice to her heart, her fight, her grace, her faith, her smile, her active support of so many, and her deep love for God. This is Noreen’s Alliterationby John O'Brien, Jr. I see you in the water, when you wouldn’t let me drownI see you in the in the music, as opposed to watching The CrownI see you on the ice, and a fistfight with the male bullyI got your glasses safe; the lessons I absorbed, fully I see you singing at Erieview High, in Annie Get Your Gun impressionsI see you in your young Annie, the motions and facial expressionsI hear you in my head, with gentle little nudgesCape Cod –trying to teach me to smile, we wept over the judges The green crash and Roger Fallon, the IA at West 93rdCamogie, The Jerk, the front porch, the sounds I never heardAt times we had like-minded magic, at times we had Dairy QueenAnd of course, we had St. Patrick’s Day, laughing over everything, so obnoxiously green The stories of Mike, the depths of love, the hope running ever eternalWatching you raise your kids, trying not to laugh, while eyes seemed fire infernalInstilling the love, of God & country, and the one across the pondThe door always open; the kettle always boiling, of this we are inordinately fond I see you in the church, and the bishop embracingThe love of God rising by day, so many trials head on facingI see you Irish dancing, and thinking, Hell NOWhy did you have to leave us, with so many joys still to go? I bid you farewell; watch over your kids and theirs tooThere’s nothing stronger than a mother’s love, for what else can a mother do?Tho you fret, though you worried, you will always be adoredRest in peace, Dear Noni, in the gentle arms of our Lord *** Noreen’s obituary reads: Noreen O'Brien Beardmore April 28, 1961 - June 13, 2021 Noreen Theresa (O'Brien) Beardmore passed away on Sunday, June 13 at home, surrounded by her family. Her last hours were filled with faith, praying rosaries with friends the night before her passing and with her family the morning of. Noreen fought a vigorous battle with cancer and her family considers the battle won as her whole life is a miracle. Noreen was born in Montreal, Canada to Irish immigrant parents on April 28, 1961 and was the oldest of four children. As a devout Catholic family, the O'Brien’s never missed Mass. When they moved to Cleveland, Ohio in 1963, their home melded the best of Irish-American culture, including a beloved Irish festival that the whole family participated in running. Noreen graduated from the all-girls Catholic high school St. Joseph's Academy in Cleveland, Ohio in 1979 and was class president.
