As we lovingly remember Matthew at this time, we would like to sincerely thank everyone who sympathized with us, attended the funeral, sent Mass cards, posted on RIP.ie, our neighbours, friends and to all who travelled long distances to be with us to share in our grief. We would also like to especially mention the hundreds of condolences received from those who are unknown to us personally, both nationally and internationally; this outpouring of support was heartwarming at such a difficult time.
A heartfelt thank you to the community in Waterford who held vigils in Matthew’s name and to Faithlegg National School, where Matthew was a pupil, for their support.
We are deeply indebted to all the emergency personnel, first responders, Gardaí and staff at University Hospital Waterford who worked tirelessly to try and save Matthew’s life.
We are profoundly thankful to Davy, Declan & Cora, and all at Tarrant’s Undertakers, for their professionalism, personal touch and the support they gave us in the depths of grief.
A sincere word of thanks to Fr. Christy, who concelebrated Matthew’s funeral mass with Fr. Liam Power from Waterford, with the support from staff in Watergrasshill Parish and the choir; your support and guidance to help us through this difficult time has been very much appreciated.
A sincere thank you to the owners and staff at The Island Crematorium Ringaskiddy, who went above and beyond to make it a most special goodbye to our little man.
We would also like to thank the media, who covered Matthew’s death in a most respectful and empathetic way and for allowing us the space to grieve our little man as privately as possible.
We are deeply indebted to the community of Watergrasshill; the support shown to us during Matthew’s funeral and since, has been the greatest display of humanity from a community; it is heartwarming to witness. From everyone who helped out in the house, controlled traffic and parking, provided food, and organised elements of the funeral, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts and we could not have managed without you.
As we cannot thank everyone individually, please accept this acknowledgement as a token of our gratitude. The Sacrifice of the Mass will be offered for your intentions.
Matthew’s Anniversary Mass will take place on Sunday, 9th February at 11:30 a.m. in Church of the Immaculate Conception, Watergrasshill, Eircode T56H320.

Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.
You can’t bate (beat) the Irish. For weeks we’ve been punished and lashed by all kinds of weather, culminating in the worst gales that ever hit the land, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake and people on the point of despair. Then a little over a week later along comes the Feast Day of St. Brigid and suddenly the mood changes into an extravaganza of celebrations and parades in every corner of the Country. I feel like saying ‘Congratulations Bridget at last you have ‘arrived’. A National Bank Holyday all to yourself. Never have I seen so much excitement. It was as though every community, every single person wanted to shake off the shackles of Storm Eowyn and be part of it all. It was as though we were only too glad to change the subject and face the future with new hope, now that our Mary of the Gaels got her place among the Elite of the Great where we can pay new homage to her and be confident of her help in the future.
We thank Andy O’Connor for submitting these two maps showing the development between 1842 and 1888.

It does not take a special day,
To bring you back to mind,
A day without a thought of you,
Is impossible to find.
Today we light a candle,
And say a special prayer,
We take a trip down memory lane,
And know that you are there.
This is your anniversary,
You would not want a fuss,
Just to be remembered,
And a prayer from all of us.
It is not what we write today,
It is not what we say,
It’s how your family feel today.
We think of you today,
We think of you in silence,
We talk about you too,
We have some great memories,
But we wish we still had you.

A huge thank you to everyone who responded to our call for rushes to make St. Brigid’s Crosses at Millstreet Library. Special thanks to Margaret, Mary, Catherine & her two sons Daniel and Conor, Liz, and Liam for their contributions. We had a fantastic morning (Fri. 31st Jan. 2025) where lots of beautiful crosses were made, both for personal use and for the church. It was wonderful to see the community spirit in full force. Thanks again to everyone who came along and contributed. Happy St Brigid’s Day. Tap on the images to enlarge. (S.R.)
