Tower and Castle Café on John Street in Kilkenny city helped to bring Darkness Into Light recently by opening their doors at 5am on the morning of the walk to serve all the local participants.
Every cent raised on the morning from coffee sales, a grand total of €700, will now be donated to Pieta House - a national mental health and suicide prevention charity.
Tower and Castle Manager Noel Buckley and Kilkenny Darkness Into Light Chairperson Aurellia Mackin commended all the people that turned out and took part that morning.
Today, on his birthday, we examine the amazing Irish ancestry of Bing Crosby.
Editor s note: Happy Birthday, Bing Crosby! On May 3, 1903, we welcomed a legend into our midst and in tribute, we are looking back at the amazing Irish roots of the singer. Crosby sang many Irish songs during his time and is it any wonder that they were some of his favorites what with his great-great-grandfather coming from County Cork.Â
After years of research, Dr. Noel Buckley has traced legendary singer and actor Bing Crosbyâs lineage back to his great-great-grandfatherâs home in West Cork.Â
Buckley, who is a big fan of Crosby, explained, âAll that is left now is a ruined ivy-clad wall . the gable end of the family home,â and went on to point out that, âif proper interpretive signs were installed, or if a plaque was erected, it could become a massive attraction in the area.â
