Cén chaoi an bhuil sibh. Is mise Labhrais Ó Fallamhain agus is meiriceannach mé. .... I only have a little Irish but I use the language as much as I can. I am a descendant of Redmond O'Fallon from Cam and Dysart Parishes ...but that's a very long time ago. I'm afraid we're just Americans now, but we never forgot the country that started us off. GRMA for posting these videos. ☦️
