BALLYMONEY lady Eileen Reilly is our next worthy winner of the Bouquet of the Month thanks to her friend.
Eileen of St Patrick's Park has been offering respite care for children with special needs since her daughter died 18 years ago.
In an emotional letter Anne Holmes wrote to the Times on behalf of all the children she has cared for in the past: "We would like to nominate Mrs Eileen Reilly for your monthly bouquet.
"Eileen had the misfortune to lose her own disabled daughter aged 2 and half years, 18 years ago.
"Since then Eileen has devoted her time days and nights to providing respite care for children with special needs as well as caring for her own family.
"We feel that she is a deserving candidate for this award. This letter is on behalf of all the children she has cared for in the past."
