Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. My Dad, Joe Fenerty, died on 28 February 2013. He was a wonderful man, scientist, academic, teacher, husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He had an amazing life and was blessed with a peaceful death. Towards the end of his life Dad, and Mum, attended various Altzheimer's Society events such as Tea Dances and the fantastic Singing for the Brain sessions‎. These events brought great pleasure and support for them both but can only continue with financial support to the Altzheimer's Society.

This walk is a personal challenge for me too having recently had another operation on my knee, the second this year. I am proud that my boy will be walking with me on the day in memory of his Grandad.
