Book excerpt: Ireland Co Clare I wrote this book Ghosts of Kilrush to tell the story of a young boy who to all sense and purposes was abandoned by his father, left in Kilrush on the West Coast of Ireland with total strangers. Joe Riley never saw his father again for 12 years until he returned unannounced one day; he was a total stranger to me. The book was written to thank the family who cared for me and to the memory of all those beautiful people in the town. People who helped shape my character and my life for better or for worse. I have over the years looked back to try to answer the question "why was I left in Kilrush and separated from my real family" This is a question that has haunted me throughout the years of my life and I have never really found an answer and maybe there is no answer, it just happened. I have received countless letters and e-mails asking "what happened to Joe Riley when he left Ireland" In an attempt to answer this question I have re written the book. Within the original book I have weaved what happened since I was sixteen years of age in the chapters of the old Ghosts of Kilrush" It is an attempt if only briefly to answer where I went and basically what happened to me over the years. If you have not read the Ghosts of Kilrush please do so, it is a snapshot of those days. It tells of how people lived in those harsh days, people who cared for each other, simple people who laughed and cried together. These people lived on a daily basis in the beliefs of "Faith, Hope, Love and Charity" they practiced these virtues each and every day. Their lives were simple but their belief in the Lord God almighty ruled their way of life from birth to the grave. These were the values that I was brought up with, I was surrounded by genuine people whose lives were simple but it was these very people who laid the foundation for later generations who left Ireland to travel to countries al around the world. These are the foundations that I received from the people of Kilrush. I was brought up by a religious woman and a very wise man "My Uncle Andrew" He taught me that a man is what his values are. My thanks cannot be expressed in words, the love and affection I have for My Aunty May and Uncle Andrew Deloughery. Gratitude is what is in your heart and values that take you through your life, how do you say thanks in words. In the early years of my life I tried too hard to become a man of success, how misguided was I and at what cost. As you read through the pages of the book you will realise that in my latter years I have strived to become a man of value. As the years churn on I am so lucky to have known so many people that it's so hard to say goodbye to.
