There’s always a notable stretch in the evenings when the anniversary of Bertie Fisher rolls around.
Last Thursday week marked twenty years since the death of the rallying legend who enthralled the masses that lined the ditches, fields and side roads all over. During a 32-year career – his first event was as a navigator the Erne Safari Rally – the sporting icon notched up 43 victories. His titanic tussles with Austin McHale have become the stuff of rally folklore.
On Sunday, January 21st, 2001, the Fisher family were a short distance from home when their helicopter crashed near the Fermanagh village of Monea. Bertie’s son, Mark (27) and daughter Emma (25) were killed instantly. The following day, the life-support machine keeping Bertie alive at the Erne Hospital was turned off. His wife, Gladys and other son, Roy, who both suffered serious injuries, survived. It was a tragedy that shook the world of sport. Ditto the world of business.

ROCKPORT Pen Bay Medical Center (PBMC) is celebrating the opening of a new 42,000-square-foot Health Center on its Rockport campus – and the opportunity it presents to expand and improve access to primary care in our coastal communities.
