NOELEEN DUNPHY – WINNER OF THE 2019 DURROW COMMUNITY ENDEAVOR AWARD! Absolutely huge congratulations to Noeleen Dunphy on being presented with this year’s Durrow Development Forum Community Endeavor Award. She is Vice Chairperson of DDF, responsible for the maintenance and facilitates walks on the Leafy Loop Walk, visits the elderly and she is always first and last on site at the Durrow Scarecrow Festival. This is just a small amount of what she does in our community. Noeleen is a rock in our village, always the first to volunteer and has alway declined to be recognized for what she does saying that she does it because she loves Durrow. There was great secrecy in this presentation and it was more than well deserved!
