Today (November 9) is the 28th anniversary of the disappearance of Jo Jo Dullard.

The Kilkenny woman's last recorded sighting was at a phone box in Moone, Co Kildare on Thursday, November, 9, 1995.

A special gathering to remember Jo Jo Dullard will take place in the Kilkenny Castle grounds on Saturday, November 11.

The occasion will be marked with a special gathering at the Kilkenny’s Missing Persons national monument on Saturday organised by Kathleen Bergin, Fr Willie Purcell and Deputy John McGuinness. Music will be provided by Kilkenny Gospel Choir and all are welcome to attend.

The monument was first unveiled by the then President Mary McAleese on May 26, 2002 and features the handprints of family members of the missing. The monument was commissioned by a trust established by the late Mary Phelan, from Callan, Co Kilkenny, whose sister, Jo Jo Dullard has not been seen since November 1995

People are advised to meet at the entrance to Kilkenny Castle at 1pm. There will then be a walk to the monument where there will be prayer and reflection, music by Kilkenny Gospel Choir and an address from Deputy John McGuinness and Mayor Joe Malone. All are welcome to attend.
