Familiar voice gone but not forgotten as Show must go on
The voice of the late Sir Major Hugh Walker of Hospital, Co Limerick was familiar to show visitors as he commentated on the riding classes. He was also a very active member and former chairman of the Limerick IFA Horse Committee and devoted a lot of his time to promotion of horse breeding.
The trophy has been presented by Derry O’Donoghue on behalf of the Walker family, in memory of the late Hugh Walker who died during the past year and John Walker, who died recently. It will be awarded at this year’s show to the best turned out entry in the driving classes.
