While Cindy is irreplaceable, we hope that everyone who knows and loves EFF will help us find our next leader.

It's impossible to comprehend the pain that Katie and the boys are enduring. Barry was known to everyone as a funny, kind and caring man - a loyal friend, a loving partner, and an incredible father. He was deeply dedicated to his job which he loved with An Post and took immense pride in providing for his family. Above all, he cherished every moment with his children: Jayden (17), Jaxon (10), Archie (9), and Bodhi (2).
