I remember Mr Rainbow so well from when he,my da and Matt's da were all in the college together.
Last time I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Rainbow was in Pearse Mess after the memorial service for all our soldiers who had lost their lives while on active UN duty overseas.
He was busy organizing the food, and drink and making sure everyone had what they needed/wanted. But he did all this with a joke and a smile for everyone. He had a knack of making people feel included and important,not to mention special.
A lovely,lovely, man. Someone all us Shadowers always looked up to aspired to be like.
Deepest Heartfelt Sympathy to Maria, Arthur and all the Rainbow Family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this your lowest point.
Fond Regards
Mary Farrell and Family(Pearse)
