Luby Family Cloone Co. Leitrim Fund

Donation protected
The aim of this GoFundMe page is to provide financial assistance for the bereaved family of the late Mick Luby  Cloone Co. Leitrim - For Mary, his Partner and his five children Mikey, Ciara, Lauren, Anthony and Conor.
On Monday 7 October 2019, Mick was rushed to Sligo General hospital and within a few hours, Mick was diagnosed with Acute Promyelocytic Leukaemia (APML), a rare sub-type of acute myeloid, leukaemia. Mary, his Partner and his children learned this heart-breaking news as the Consultant Haematologist explained statistics, that only 6 in 10 million get a diagnosis of APML (in fact there was a better chance of winning the lotto) but just 1 in ten have a chance of survival. As the day progressed, Mick’s condition became more critical as serious haemorrhaging occurred. To give Mick every chance of survival, he was transferred to Beaumont hospital, but by Tuesday 8th October, Mick had gone to his eternal reward.



The loss of their father Mick must be so difficult for his young children Mikey, Ciara, Lauren, Anthony, Conor and for his Partner Mary. Their grief journey is a very personal one, but this GOFUNDME page endeavours to give the family some financial security for the future


Mick Luby grew up in Moyne Co. Longford, but his heart took him to Cloone Co Leitrim where he met Mary. Living in Cloone for more than 20 years, his life was centred around Mary and his five children He was hardworking and he had recently set up a new business Auto Vision Systems which offered Vehicle CCTV cameras and telematic systems to Transport Companies. His untimely death prevented him from providing for his family as would have been his wish and it is for this reason that the Cloone community and Mick’s friends wish to lend their support to this endeavour.

The people of Cloone and the surrounding areas were shocked and saddened by the untimely death of 42-year-old Mick Luby on 8th October 2019. A Committee has been formed to fundraise for the family. As well as this GoFundMe page, a Benefit Dance has been organised in Clarkes Hotel, Mohill on Saturday 29 February 2020 at 9pm. Tickets are on sale for this event: enquires to +35386 0526324 or you can donate at an account in Mohill Post Office.
Your contributions will be greatly appreciated by donating to this GoFundMe Page; buying a ticket for the Benefit Dance or by donating at an account in Mohill Post Office.
