Folks on behalf of RATH and Dalaradia can we say a huge thank you to everyone who attended the Rathcoole Row on Row service today.
The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members.
A special thank you to the following groups/members for laying wreaths:
Alison Bennington as Veterans Champion for Antrim and Newtownabbey
Stafford Ward, independent

A huge thank you to Rathcoole Protestant Boys. A fine performance by them.

Thank you to D.Coy military enthusiasts for attending.
Many thanks to Richard, Mark at the Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council and Gerard at Clanmill for their help.

Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much! Not for glory nor riches, but for our people.
Lest we forget
