Dear Greta,

Thank you so much for your care and contact over the last 9 years since my mum (Ann Dillon) died. It was so wonderful to hear your memories of those nursing days and delight in the memories you shared. I hope you are having a good reunion with her now and continue to pray for us.

I'm very grateful I got to visit you only a few short weeks ago and reminisce one last time.

Sincere condolences to the Bunyan Family,
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam

“Those we love don’t go away,

They walk beside us every day,

Unseen, unheard, but always near,

Still loved, still missed and very dear”.

I am very sad at your passing and condolences, to the rest of the Bunyan family and the Poor Clare Sisters - Ballsbridge, Dublin.

You were a kind heart in a cruel world, always laughed, always loved to chat and brought lots of sunshine, wherever you went.

In an old Kerry expression, and very true in this instance, Gretta was a walking saint. She could and would only see good in each person, I will miss her Christmas letter, knowing that it always contained tydings of real joy and messages of what Christmas really meant.

May you rest well in glorious peace.
