The memorial plaque to Charles (Charlie) Love was originally mounted in 1991 and preserved when the flats at the junction of Fahan Street and Rossville Street, Derry, were re-done. (The Runner would later be painted around it by the Bogside Artists.) “In memory of Charles Love, accidentally killed on 28th January 1990. Unveiled by his father Patrick. Erected by the Bloody Sunday Initiative 27th January 1991. Padre Pio pray for him.” Love was 17 years old when he was hit by flying masonry from an IRA bomb while attending a Bloody Sunday memorial.
