Ann Callaghan
(née Garvey)

I am so sorry to hear just now of Ann's passing. We worked together for many years at UCC. She was the kindest and most loyal colleague I could have had. A wonderful chef too.Thanks for the memories, Ann. God rest her most kind and loving soul.

Sincere sympathy to the Callaghan family on the death of your beautiful Mum, Ann. She was a lovely lady in every way. I will never forget her kindness to me when I was a student in the Italian Dept., in U.C.C., many years ago. May she rest in peace.

May God be good to Ann and give strength to her family at this sad time.

My sincere and deepest sympathy at this difficult time. May she rest in peace.

My sincere sympathy to the Callaghan family on the death of your dear mother Ann. She lectured to me in 1st Arts and conveyed her love of Italy and the language to our class. On a splendid holiday organised by her friend Catherine to Italy we became friends. She was a lovely warm person . I also knew your Dad when I was UCC Medical Librarian - he was a regular user of the Hospital Library. May they both RIP.

Sincere condolences to the family on the death of such a lovely person as Anne. As her student in UCC Italian Dept. many years ago, I remember her with great fondness, always encouraging, engaged and interested in her students, her great sense of style and elegance brightening up the day. A true lady to the core. May she rest in peace.

We were sorry to hear of Ann’s passing. Always a kind, gentle and courteous lady we are sure she will be sadly missed by family and surviving members of her academic and neurological communities.

I have lovely memories of Mrs Callaghan from my time in UCC many years ago. She was a lovely lady and always approachable. May she rest in peace. Sympathy to all of her family.

Mike, Tom, Helen and John, we were so sorry to hear this sad news. We're grateful to have had the chance to meet your amazing mum, Ann, several times. She was warm and intelligent, engaged in the world around her and always great to chat to. She'll be much missed by all who knew her. Love to you all at this difficult time

My sincerest condolences to all the family. Ann contributed to the European Drama Course and I remember our meetings, her creative contributions to curriculum development - always a friendly smile on her face. May she rest in peace,

Sincere sympathy to the Callaghan & Garvey families on the sad passing of your mother. May she rest in peace.

Sincere sympathies to all the Callaghan family (cousins), and extended family, on the loss of your wonderful mother Ann. RIP. When Ann retired from UCC, I used to enjoy calling over to her and share conversation over a cup of tea. As an undergraduate, Ann persuaded me to talk to Prof Des Clarke (Vice President of UCC and Head of Philosophy Department) when I wanted to switch from French to Philosophy but the deadline for switching had passed. It was good advice from Ann, as Prof Des Clarke persuaded Prof Tom Dunne (then Dean of Arts), to let me switch subjects, for which I was extremely grateful. As ever, Ann was wise, intelligent, graceful and eloquent and I always enjoyed her company, especially her dry wit and wry sense of humour. I will miss her very much. May she rest in everlasting peace. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam dílis.

I’m so so sorry to hear this sad news… Helen I have so many happy memories of your wonderful mum, she had such a soft and genuine smile and it always came so freely whenever I was in your home. I’ll never forget her face when she came home from work to discover you’d broken your arm! I hope she’s happily with your equally lovely dad. May she rest in peace. My thoughts are with you all and I’m sending heartfelt love to you xxx

Helen, thinking of you and your brothers and families at this sad and difficult time. Your mum Ann was such a lovely lady, and so accomplished, cultured and elegant as well. Thinking of you ….. Helen, Pat, Donncha and Aoife McKelvey
