Today we remember Seamus Ruddy on the 40th anniversary of his disappearance. Seamus was a much loved son, brother & uncle.
For 32 years his body had been secretly buried near Rouen in France. Thankfully, Seamus’s body was recovered eight years ago and brought back to Newry for Christian burial.

The retirement of Jon Hill is truly the end of an era.
For nearly 20 years Jon has worked tirelessly to find those murdered and secretly buried during the Troubles. His contribution to the success of the ICLVR has been immense. The Families of the Disappeared wish Jon a long & happy retirement.
