A thank you to Sunderland AFC from the ROHA

[Ray of hope appeal]

Saturday’s victory at the Stadium of Light was watched by Ray Kennedy. The Ray of Hope Appeal would like to extend our sincere thanks to Niall Quinn and his staff for making Ray feel so welcome. Thanks in particular to Niall for taking the time to greet Ray before the game. Sunderland are a well run football club with a thoroughly good man at the top and we wish them the best of luck for the season. Thanks also to Chauffeur Drive North East for their help in getting Ray to the ground and for looking after him so well.

 

Sunderland have been superb to us since we contacted them about our visit in April’s 92 club tour, giving us a signed ball and now giving Ray a seat in the Directors Box. Ray rarely leaves his house save for doctor’s appointments so this was a major excursion. The Ray of Hope Appeal’s remit is to give him a better standard of life so it was great to see him smiling after the match. He told us that he was tired but delighted when we met him after the final whistle.

 

While thanking Niall and his staff its important to remember that its your generosity and support that made Ray’s trip possible. Whether you donated into a collection bucket, attended the launch night, sponsored the dash, joined the Euro predictions or donated in any other way, YOU have helped Ray Kennedy.

 

Thank you for your continued support

Anyone posted this on the Sunderland sites? Worth sharing.

Niall Quinn proves yet again what a c*** he really is, probably did all this so he gets a thank you on the forum!

I received an anonymous email from someone called budlinred@yahoo.ie informing me that Niall Quinn only gave Ray Kennedy a seat next to him in the Director's Box so he could stamp on his foot, poke him in the eye and steal his hat.
