Tom Ryan & Kathleen Mullen
Looking through your wonderful site and photo gallery I’ve spotted my Dad in 2 of your photos – one named The Lads on Dingle Road (he’s first on the left) and Dennis Doyle and his Mates (half hidden in background). Dad’s name is Tom Ryan formally of Inver Road and he married Kathleen Mullen of Bannow Road in Church of the Precious Blood – their photo won photograph of the year (in The Evening Press I think). Dad was Mr. Dublin and Mr. Ireland (the Dublin title being the bigger competition?!) for Body Building and have plenty of photos and one or two press cuttings if you would like to put them up on your website. Dad and his family and group of friends were friends of Dickie Rock. Mam and Dad celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary in 2008 and Dad’s sister Deloras along with her husband Anthony Denis (who is also in the Dingle Road photo) just celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary last night
