You said that you'll stop that or try and fight to stop that from happening.

You know, Michelle, when you're talking there, I can hear that there's still trauma there.

I can hear it in your voice, even when you call him daddy.

I mean, you clearly loved this man.

What do you want the listeners to know about your dad most of all?

Well, Michelle, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us and giving that lovely tribute to your dad.

You can really see the love that you had for your dad and the love in your family.

And he just comes across as just such a lovable man.

Oh, he was.

And my thanks to Michelle Ryan and earlier to Catherine Feagan.

Tessa, this is the first episode of Seachtain.

There's a new episode every Tuesday with stories and stories about your life on the island.

It was like I was talking to the audience team.

Just a heads up, this podcast contains references to suicide, so please take care when listening.

On a cold winter night in December 2000, Sandra Collins went missing from a small fishing village in Mayo.

More than two decades on, the silence and mystery around her disappearance continues to linger.
