I haven't been on here for a while, but today i've found a special reason too. My husband was Patrick Strogen, he owned Fido Dido, which some of you might remember. For those who dont, Patrick passed away in 2009 from cancer, his beloved 1980 mini kept him going throughout his illness. On the day of his funeral many of you came from all over Ireland to pay your respects. Last week our daughter turned 18 and today i fulfilled his final request and i signed over his beloved car to her. She can't wait now to pass her test and continue in her fathers footsteps. In fact within an hour of hearing the news she went online and joined the IMOC site. Her username is Lauren Rose Strogen. i know she will make her dad proud. And will look after Fido with the same care that Patrick did.
