But first I want to identify areas of work that has been done on our behalf and to thank all those who enable the cathedral to make such impact on the life of the city and country as it now does. Here I include all our administrative staff in the office and vergers' departments. Carol, Barry and Freddy, Angela and Lesley, Valerie and Joan are familiar faces to all of us. They know the time and commitment they give to the cathedral. 1 May. I thank also the Reverend Douglas Slator and Archdeacon Brian Snow for their help and assistance.
Music plays a significant part in the cathedral's life.
Mark Duley , Andrew Johnstone and Stephen Candow with the two cathedral choirs have gained us a reputation for excellence second to none in Ireland. We wish them every success in their travels. Allen Figgis for many people was the very embodiment of Christ Church. He leaves behind a legacy of memories for all of us. May he rest in the peace of Christ.
