The community of Donegal Town certainly know how to give a local hero a real send-off.
Local lad David Crawford, 20, is heading to Italy to represent Ireland in the European Futsal Down Syndrome games.
His proud parents Bryan & Amanda, brothers Jonathan and Karl, sister Alex and grandmother Margaret are so grateful to the Donegal community for supporting David all through his extraordinary life.
A special mention has to be given to his coach; Tony McNamee who saw David’s goalkeeping potential and was there this morning for the send off.
Have a great time David and wear that green jersey with pride!
With thanks to Paul O’Sullivan for the pictures.
