Tom O’Sullivan……..A Thank You
Tom’s family wish to thank you for the wonderful send off given to him on the 29th
and 30th December 2024. It was a tribute fit for an old chieftain. We are certain he was chuckling at
some of the nice things said as we can imagine how he enjoyed the rousing music at the Church and
the cemetery. Thank you to Fr. Fitzgerald for the use of Ballydaly Church for his reposing. It has
always been special in our lives. Thanks to Fr. Kennelly for celebrating the Mass, a link back to old
days. Thanks to Fr. Winter and Fr. Paddy for their participation in the ceremony. The choir and
organist did a superb job and added so much to the occasion. Thanks to Sharon for her work in the
preparation, to Marcella for her thoughtful arrangements and to Davy for his advice and guidance.
Thanks to all those who visited the church on Sunday or attended the Mass on Monday. Thanks to
James Linehan and his group of musicians for their uplifting and impressive contribution. Our thanks
too to those who posted condolences, many of them very touching. Thanks to all who kept in touch
with him during his time in Araglen House where he received such care and loving attention.
Finally we come to the Ballydaly community who gave of their time and resources on Sunday and
Monday. Our words are inadequate but your generosity will be long remembered.
