Rest in Peace

Ann emigrated to the US over sixty years ago.  She met her husband at Gaelic Park and started their family on Mosholu Parkway in the Bronx during the 1970's .  She made frequent visits to Corlough and Carrigallen with her children and regularly visited her numerous friends in the surrounding parishes.  She dealt with the loss of her husband in 1990 and raised her two children in St. Brendan's Parish. She graduated from College in 1996 and worked for the NYC Board of Education only retiring three years ago this June.

Ann lived many years with an underlying heart condition and fought to remain an active mother and grandmother to her family. She passed away peacefully at home with her family saying the rosary at her bedside. She lived her life dedicated to her Catholic faith.  She will always be remembered as a hardworking, kind and loving person.

Ann will return to Ireland on Wednesday, 23rd September. Removal from her home in Carrigallen at 5.15pm to arrive at St Patrick's Church, Corlough at 6.00pm.  Funeral Mass on Thursday at 11.00am.  Burial afterwards in Carrigallen Cemetery.
