Celebrating Órla

A little girl who filled every room with laughter

Run for Órla is being created by Eamonn and Una Shealy in loving memory of their beautiful daughter, Órla. Full of joy, courage and curiosity, she loved the outdoors, family adventures, her treasured red blanket and speaking to the moon and stars.
