'She was such a kind and caring person and we hope that we are able to continue her legacy of helping others.'
The family of a passionate Co Down fundraiser have raised thousands in her memory for the Ulster Hospital.
Her daughter Kiera said: "In August we were devastated when our mum suddenly became very unwell and passed away in hospital a couple of days later. We had been texting her hours beforehand and we are still struggling to come to terms with her loss. "Following her loss we felt that we needed to do something to honour her memory and all that she has done for others and decided that we would do a fundraiser of our own to give back to the intensive care unit at the Ulster Hospital who looked after her so well in her final days.
The fundraising night on October 28th proved to be a huge success, with the family raising over £6,000 for the intensive care unit at the Ulster Hospital.
