Fúm/About Me

Not far from retirement. I spent time in Ireland with my wife and adult sons in May 2025 and connected with a long-lost relative. I learned a lot of fascinating things about my family that remained in Ireland. And being from An Spideal, they are pretty intense about preserving the language. So I’m trying to do my little part to invigorate the language here in the US.
