Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday June 7th
Margaret Crowley
Not everybody gets a new cooker for their birthday, and even fewer get a new cooker for their birthday, when they reach 100 years.
Born in Lehina, Lislevane near Courtmacsherry on May-day 1920, Margaret Crowley arrived in this world as one pandemic ended. One hundred years later, she is still around to witness another one begin.
When her mother died at the young age of forty, there were nine children to be raised. Her father rejected all calls to have his children separated and sent to Upton and Clonakilty. During the following years, he proved himself to be a loving, caring and very capable parent.
On this week’s edition of Where the road takes me’, Margaret tells her story to John Greene
Her son Jim joins us to wax lyrical about his amazing mother.
And we track down Fr. Tom Sexton who was by cared for as a two year old by Margaret, after his mother died in childbirth.
Where the road takes me, goes to air as usual on Sunday evening next at 7pm on C103.
