Ann O’Rourke

My Name Is Bridget writes:

Ann was left on a doorstep of an orphanage in Longford as a baby. She was there until her teens and was “raped, beaten and starved”. Her son said her life was “hell”. Ann never found her parents. Ann, 68, died from coronavirus recently. RIP

Meanwhile…

She had 3 children and 5 grandchildren. She stayed friends with women from the home and they all cared for each other
