€23k raised for Donegal boy, 7, after untimely death of dad aged 37

More than €23,000 has been raised for seven-year-old Finley to help support him financially until he is 21, after he tragically lost his father Gerry due to lifelong complications with diabetes.

Gerry Glackin, 37, died on May 9, leading to his friends and family having their "world torn apart" upon hearing the devastating news that their son, brother, father, uncle, work colleague and friend, all in one, had died suddenly.

Gerry's family have set up a GoFundMe to help financially support his son Finley, who was his world, so that he "does not have to struggle through life with any financial issues."
