A big thank you to the Board and Staff of the Hibs for this and their support at every stage since the spark of a idea, when one of St. Patrick's Branch members highlighted this untenable situation at a Branch meeting, the fund raising stage and the fruition, culminating tomorrow, in an event that has brought all elements of the Hibernian Family together. The unbelievable generosity of Hibee punters without whom the £3000 Headstone couldnae have happened, is staggering. Thanks to everyone.

See you tomorrow.

As I said a couple of weeks back - wouldn't it be great to properly respect the last manager to win the SC......with the next manager to do so in attendance......

Very pleased that Terry will be there to see the great spirit and essence that makes us what we are as Hibernian

[Hibernia Na Eir]

Fine pictures :agree:

I must have been next to you as my pictures are from a similar spot. It was an honour to attend what was a dignified re-dedication to Dan McMichael.

Brilliant piece. Every Hibs fan should read that.

[Hibernia Na Eir]

what a great day/evening. Had the pleasure of being in the company of Dan's descendents after game and what a great bunch of folk (even if they were of the wrong green persuasion!)

A huge thank you to all the footsoldiers who gave up their time over the last months to phone, email, pedal, barter and organise fellow hibees to arrange this touching and just tribute to Dan's memory.

Likewise Suzy,we were still talking about it with our other family later on, a good experience for us!

Father John McFadden, good to see a familiar name and, albeit a Celtic fan, he does have a very soft spot for Hibernian.

Helped me and my family get through some very tough times about ten years ago.

[The Harp]

Really pleased that Saturday's memorial service for Dan ran so smoothly. Great to see members of the McMichael clan there and the speech from Dan's Grandson was spot on. Well done to all who were involved in organising the event and to those who participated on the day.
A truly memorable Hibernian family occasion.
