Maura Wall-Murphy

Though I never met Maura or Denstone I’ve just completed reading “Rumour of Hope” a most beautiful memoir and May they both rest in peace

So sorry to hear of Maura’s death she was a great friend to myself and my Dad & Mum John & Mona we enjoyed many holidays in Rathmullen Co Donegal and trips to Coleraine with Maura & Denstone.
John & Mona were at Maura & Denstone Wedding and I still have the photos.
I will always remember you Maura you were so good to me. Ann

Sincere sympathies to all of Maura's family. I had the pleasure of having many an interesting conversation with Maura as I dropped her medicine to her from Doran's Pharmacy. Every conversation was different, no topic was off limits and Maura was always keen to understand and to listen. What her body may have lacked in strength, in her later years, her mind and her determination more than compensated for. Maura was a one-of-a-kind and will be missed by all who knew her. Rest in Peace.

My sincere condolences. Maura was a woman of integrity, forward thinking and open. You will be sadly missed.

About 20 years ago on a train to Dublin for a Munster match I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Maura for a few hours. Such great company and an inspirational lady. Told me all about her life and her late Denstone. She drove me from Heuston to Ballsbridge and offered to take me to Cabinteely for breakfast. Only time I ever met her but never forgot and thought about that morning a lot over the years. May she rest in peace.

My deepest sympathy on the death of Maura. Her husband Denstone was a well respected teacher in Cabinteely Community School.
May she rest in peace.

Paddy Rose and the Kelly family. Our condolences on the passing of your inspirational aunt Maura. Rest in peace Maura.

My sincere sympathy to Maura’s family. She and Denstone became great friends of my late parents Sylvia and Paddy when they lived in Sandymount many years ago. She was always so very kind and interesting with such panache, and was a true pioneer for women.
Happy memories of visits to Coleraine and Cabinteely, and lucky Trixie dog who was abandoned, followed me home from school, and landed on his paws when Maura & Denstone took him in.

May Maura rest in Peace.

Maura was a wonderful lady and neighbour, may she rest in peace.

To honour a fantastic aunt who showed us much love, care and understanding.

Also to honour her commitment to our mum her sister Gobnait & husband Jerry
My you rest in peace with your creator, Denstone, your mother and loved ones

Deepest sympathies to Mauras family. And friends. Back in the mists ot time I soldiered with Maura as we explored setting up the family mediation service I was so grateful for all her mentoring. And sharing of her wide experience and knowledge. May she rest in peace. Joan.

My sincere sympathy to Mauras Family and friends. I met Maura over 4 years ago as a carer. It was wonderful knowing Maura. She was a truly fabulous person. I loved my visits to Maura as we had such intresting conversations. I admired so much the way Maura dealt with her illness such a strong minded person. She was truly inspirational. Such a stylish elegant Lady. I will miss you Maura. There is another Angel in Heaven.

So sorry to hear of Maura’s passing, she wasn’t just our neighbour, herself & Denstone were always treated as part of our family. So many memories & fun times, will never forget the day I spent with Maura & Gobnait in Sydney on their stopover in Australia in 1996! Maura was a visionary & so inspirational- one of a kind xx

Deepest sympathy to Maura’s family and friends.
I was lucky to meet Maura 3 years ago when working as a carer. And later on she became more like a friend and life mentor.
Maura was always so graceful and warm. Her resilience in fighting her illness was truly inspiring. She was also a patient listener, her encouraging words and her presence provided the strength when I needed it most.
Those time spent with Maura was too short but still a gift for me and will forever be cherished.
Though you may no longer be with us in body, your spirit lives on in the hearts of those you touched. I will always hold you in the highest regard. Thank you Maura for everything, may you rest in peace.

Sincere sympathy to Maura's family on her sad passing. I have fond memories of Maura when she was part of our Poker group . A lady of great humour, intellect and courage. Rest in peace, Maura

I am so glad to have been introduced to Maura by a mutual friend Margaret (Murphy) Hughes many years ago.
It was always so enjoyable, entertaining and interesting to meet up with her.
Her courage in dealing with her final illness was truly inspirational.
May she Rest in Peace.

Sincere sympathy to Maura's family and friend. I was an MEd student in TCD more than four decades ago, yet one of the most vivid memories I cherish is Maura's sessions, her vivacious presence and zest for life. In my memory she will continue to be a force of nature. I have no doubt that at this difficult time, her contributions to other's lives will be a significant source of solace.

Sincere sympathy to Maura’s family. I remain grateful for her introductory course on family mediation that I attended in 1999 - May she Rest in Peace.

Condolences to Sinead and all Maura's family, carers and friends. Having heard many great stories about Maura from Sinead, she was a mighty lady who was very well cared for. May she rest in peace.

My condolences to Maura’s friends and extended family. May she Rest in Peace

May Maura Wall Murphy rest in peace. She pioneered the concept of Family Mediation in Irish Social Work

So sorry to hear about Maura's passing and she will be greatly missed. Held in the highest regard by all and a really inspirational person, she was also a very empathetic and encouraging listener. No matter what was going on in her life she loved to make time for a chat and was always great company. Her supreme intellect always gave such nuanced insights and her razor sharp wit will be a huge loss.
Rest easy, Maura. You deserve it.
Níl sí imithe uainn ach imithe romhainn.

So sorry to hear of Maura’s passing. She will be missed by all who knew her.

All in Lissarda, home place of the remarkable Denstone Murphy, Maura’s loving husband (and dear friend of my father, Ted. Denstone loved to quote Walt Whitman: "Every man shall be his own priest.") mourn Maura’s death —and remember with affection the deep and revolutionary love they held for each other. May they rest together in peace.

I will light a candle for Maura, who I loved, and will think of her with great fondness this Saturday, and after, and of the wonderful brief time we had together. She was inspiring, not only in what she did, but in who she was. May we all carry that part of her with us.

My deepest sympathy to all Maura's family and friends on the loss of such a wonderful person. She was an inspiring mentor and leader in the world of family mediation. Ireland owes her a huge debt of gratitude for her expertise, courage and concern for others.

Thinking of her beloved Sister Gobnait and her Husband Denstone at this sad time.

Very sorry to hear that Maura has passed. I knew her as a fellow mediator and she was always very generous in giving advice and sharing her knowledge. She has left a great legacy in the mediation world.

It was a privilege to be acquainted with Maura in recent times. Integrity shone from her.

Deepest sympathy. Safely Home in Heaven ,Maura after a long life.

We are sad to hear of Maura’ s passing- an absolutely lovely lady who we got to know through the wonderful theatre group from years ago. She was an amazing warrior in managing her illness so well over the years and in having such a candid and independent view on life and living. May she rest gently. Ed and Avril.

My wonderful Maura - friend and neighbour. You have been such a huge part of my life for almost forty years I will miss you so much. However, I am happy that you had the death you wished for - at home and quickly.
Will love you always x

Deepest sympathy

I will miss my dear friend Maura so much. She was an inspiration to me over the years we lived as neighbours. However her quality of life was so poor recently, I'm relieved she's finally at peace.
Love you always Maura and love the memories.
