Featuring an original theatrical presentation "The HEROES" Written and Produced by Mary Kate O'Connell Edward Patton, historical advisor   In our continuing chronicle of the Irish in Buffalo, we celebrate 3 Irish-Americans Julia Lanigan Durney Hogan, Bishop Stephen Ryan and Captain Edward Frawley who stood out as Everyday Heroes. In the late 1800’s when the Buffalo Irish were engulfed in desperate poverty, intense prejudice and uncertain safety for home and family – these 3 Heroes risked their own lives to help a people in trouble. They knew that doing right by others was the greatest reward. Reaching out to help to preserve the home, soul and safety of Buffalo's Irish Community: THE HEROES.
