Now in his late 70s, John, a fierce advocate for justice for Tuam’s victims, was reunited with Bridie after 38 years. She gifted the hair to his wife, Julie, at their wedding. The artifact, now hailed as the museum’s most precious treasure, anchors the powerful exhibition “Survivor Stories: Tuam and Ireland’s Institutional Past,” opening July 1, with John—once a framer himself—approving its elegant display.
