Honouring the country’s inspirational unsung heroes

The widow of murdered garda, Adrian Donohoe, has spoken publicly for the first time about the devastating impact of her husband’s violent death on her family.

Caroline Donohoe described Adrian, who was shot dead while responding to a robbery at Lordship Credit Union outside Dundalk last January, as the love of her life.

“I will miss him every minute of every day as long as I live,” said Ms Donohoe who accepted a posthumous award on her husband’s behalf at the Rehab People of the Year awards in Dublin on Saturday night.
