Sincere sympathy to the Claffey family. Mary was one of the first female teachers in the male dominated CB S. She taught me IRISH in the early 70s. As a commerce and business studies teacher ,her catch phrase to her students was-- Everybody should have a ruler,a red biro and a ready reckoner--- A LADY, May you be at peace. RIP.

To the Claffey Family
Deeply sorry to learn of Mary Claffey's passing. Mary and I became friends in 1946 when we were in Loreto Convent making a friendship that eventually became life long. Memories of that life are too numerous to list but were everlasting. Mary was accomplished piano player an excellent student, and secondary school teacher. She was generous and kind and sensitive to everyone's feelings or need for friendship. With Sincere Sympathy to Tony and Anna

Sincerest sympathy to the family of Miss Claffey. Although I only ever was in her class for singing or on locum, when another teacher was absent, I always found her a lovely lady and very conscientious. A measure of the lady and how well she was thought of, can be seen from this condolence book and also the heartfelt messages and memories expressed on the Portlaoise CBS Group on FB

Sympathy to the Claffey family, Mary was a wonderful teacher and had a great love for business subjects, always reminding us students not to forget the red Biro, blue biro and the ruler for our bookkeeping. From memory she always drove a Westmeath registered VW Golf, a county she was very proud of.

Ah, dear Mary Claffey, a lady through and through and one of the marvellous staff of CBS, Tower Hill back in the day. I was lucky enough to have been a student there and when I returned to complete my 'Dip' as it was known then, Mary couldn't have been more supportive. I look back on my education there with great fondness and am so lucky to have had the best teachers and mentors. Thank you, Mary. May your gentle soul rest in peace. Thoughts and prayers are with the Claffey family at this sad time of loss.
