Memorial for first IRA Volunteer killed on active service
MEMORIES of the first IRA volunteer to die on active service following the outbreak of the recent conflict are to be shared at a plaque unveiling at the Westrock Community Garden in Ballymurphy.
Thirty-five-year-old father of six Michael Kane, who originally hailed from the New Lodge area of North Belfast, had his life cut short in a premature explosion in September of 1970.
The plaque dedicated to Michael Kane will be unveiled at the Westrock Community Garden this Sunday September 26, at 3pm, and will feature a short speech by veteran republican activist Joe Austin and will be chaired by Anne Marie McWilliams. All are welcome.
