Over 25,000 mourners came to pay their respects to our dearly departed with over 50 shows each enjoyed by over 500 people each. Wow – the Barley Boys were rocking and guest were treated to special performances on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Final performance was St. Patrick’s Day 2008. We hope to be back in the future but for now, we’ll think fondly on the memories and thank everyone for making us feel so welcome!
