Subject: RE: BS: Statue of Michael Collins
Getting back to the unveiling ceremony - Liam Neeson said that Michael had helped him when he was in hospital in New York following a serious accident. He asked himself:"What would Mick do?" and in a great rendition of a West Cork accent, Liam declared: "You were told to do one-hour physical therapy - you will do two hours and be thankful for it." Liam went on to say that, "If my presence here today will help to keep alive his memory, I will be doubly honoured."
