Limerick calls for ‘heroes’ to shape city
Mark Quinn, who conquered Everest last year aged 27, and John Loftus, 63 who both hail from Limerick, spoke of their personal stories of triumphing against the odds and encouraged the people of the city to grasp the opportunity to do the same.
Mr Loftus, also known as “The Bullet”, and who runs an asset management agency, received a kidney in 2000 after contracting a virus that was slowly killing him.
