A Cork woman who bought Joe Dolan's hip bone on eBay for €690 is seeking a new owner for the late singer's body part.
Maggie Keating (39) from Mitchelstown in Cork, told Mark Prendeville on Cork radio station Red FM that she has been a fan of Dolan's since she was 17.
"My mother followed him from her dancing days so his music would have always been on in the house when I was growing up," she said.
"I went to my first concert of his when I was 17 and from around 1995 we would have been very friendly, I met him loads.
"He was very down to earth and would have always come over to chat."
She also has a suit of Joe's which her sister-in-law Bridget bought in aid of Daffodil Day. She thought she'd add to her collection when Dolan was convinced on The Podge & Rodge Show to sell his old hip - following a hip replacement, of course - for Autism Action.
Keating eventually bought the hip, signed by Joe Dolan, for €690 after an auction on eBay. And when he died in 2007, she took comfort from displaying it in her house.
"It was always nice to look up and see it, it was on display in my house but then some people would pretend to bite it as a joke or throw it to the dog so I wrapped it up and put it away in case it would break," she said.
Now she wants to sell it but body parts can no longer be sold on eBay, so Red FM are helping her to find a buyer.
"I don't know how much it would even be worth but I have had my joy from it and now maybe it would be time for someone else to, if I could get the right money for it," she said.
