Sincere condolence to Brendan,Liz and all the Balf family on the passing of your dear mother, Eithne.
May her gentle soul rest in peace.
Eithne and her husband, Andrew, were part of a cadre of young couples who were the founding mothers and fathers of the modern-day Churchtown, when, in the 1950s, butter-cupped, pasture fields were disturbed by earth-moving equipment, in order to house the civil servants, teachers and bank officials setting out on the great adventure of married life.

Though old and frail they eventually would become, their presence among us continued to be reassuring, as they were, as Eithne was, the pillars that subtly kept the temple of our community upright, while the rest of us enthusiastically pursued the fruits of the temporal world. We mourn their passing, and gratefully and humbly have taken the baton of responsibility from them.

At a personal level, I had the good fortune to live along the route Eithne took every afternoon, on foot, making her way to say a prayer in her beloved sanctuary, the Church of the Good Shepherd. It was a joy for me every time we happened to bump into each other, her kindness, goodness and cheerfulness radiating discreetly from her.

I occasionally couldn’t resist briefly placing an affectionate and protective masculine arm across her feminine shoulders. Eithne’s kindness to my mother, in 1998, as she lay in the anteroom to the next life, is something I’ve not forgotten.
We offer our condolences to Lorcan and the wider Balfe family at this sad time. May she rest in peace.
