Magnificent “Tranquility Garden” Developed at the Boeing by the River Blackwater

A truly magnificent “Tranquility Garden” has been very creatively developed at the Boeing by the River Blackwater in the Dooneen/Dromsicane area.   Remarkable work has been carried out over the past several weeks by four supremely dedicated Volunteers assisted by willing helpers also.   Sincere congratulations to Mary and Ted Collins, Dooneen and to Francis and Frank O’Riordan, Dromsicane on completing such an inspiring Haven of Peace – a  very beautiful Tranquility Garden – in memory of the late Eileen O’Riordan with the dedicated seat and tree in view of her always welcoming family home where she shared such great happiness, generosity and kindest to one and all.  Here we share a selection of images – many of which have been very kindly shared by Mary Collins – showing its gradual development over recent weeks.  Large amount of Visitors have been calling to view the development especially during this splendid weather.  Tap on the pictures to enlarge.  (S.R.)
