Laura Murray fundraising for Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust in Waterford Athletic Club Half Marathon 2024

Hi everyone. My brother Liam died suddenly while living in Sacramento, California aged 42. Receiving the awful news changed our lives forever. Liam was one in a million. He was my best friend, my only sibling and made me laugh every day. He had a great sense of humour and a heart of gold. When he died we were advised to call the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust. They immediately re-assured us they would help navigate the difficult journey bringing Liam home to Ireland. I don't think people realise how much paper work is involved in repatriation, let alone the cost. The support we received from Colin and Mairead Bell was beyond words. We will be forever grateful to them for helping us through such a traumatic time. I have decided to run the Waterford half marathon on 30th November in memory of my dear brother and for this incredible charity and their amazing work. Running has been my lifeline this last year. Any donation however big or small is massively appreciated. Thank you. Laura
