On the First Anniversary of our mother’s passing, we her family wish to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation to all those who sympathised and supported us on our sad loss.
During her 10 year illness, Mammy was helped by so many great people . A special thanks to all the Public Health Nurses, especially Elaine Reardon, Áine O’Riordan and Chris O’ Donoghue, Occupational Therapist, Doctors from Tullig Medical Center and the wonderful home helps, Eileen Coakley, Eileen Murphy, Margaret Cronin, Bebe White, and our neighbour Sheila McSweeney which gave us the opportunity to keep Mammy at home as long as was possible.
Her final years were spent in Millstreet Community Hospital in great comfort thanks to the tremendous care and respect she received from Margaret Collins and her staff.
Our thanks to those who sent Mass and Sympathy cards, floral tributes and those who wrote messages of condolence on R.I.P.ie .
We would like to express our appreciation for the support and kindness of our neighbours, friends and relatives and all who lined the roadside, those who came and waited outside the funeral home and the Church and everyone who joined the funeral Mass online.
We would like to acknowledge the great work carried out by Davy Tarrant and his staff. They always ensure that everything goes smoothly for a grieving family during what is a very stressful and and sad time and for this we are truly thankful.
We would like to give a special mention to Fr. Jack Fitzgerald. Fr. Jack called to Gortavehy for many years and that meant a lot to all the family. We would like to thank him especially for doing such a beautiful Mass. It gave us great consolation to have her honoured in such a lovely way. We would also like to thank Sharon and Julie, Jerry Doody and all who contributed to making the Mass so special.
As it is impossible to thank everyone individually please accept this as a token of our sincere gratitude.
Anniversary Mass will be held on Sunday 23rd January at 11.30am in St. Patrick’s Church Millstreet.
