Duffy helps celebrate the life of brave fan

BIG-HEARTED Keith Duffy proved he never forgets a fan when he turned out for a posthumous celebration of the life of one of his most special admirers.

The actor and former Boyzone star stepped out to join the family and friends of Margaret McLoughlin in remembering the plucky young Dubliner whose legacy has been a fundraising campaign for others who face the same challenges she did.

Yesterday would have been Margaret’s 29th birthday but she passed away in 2003. She had Down Syndrome and since her death her family have been fundraising for various organisations that provide support and assistance for people with Down Syndrome and their families.
