Sincere condolences to Mother Karol and community and to Sr Maire's family on the passing of a person so fully imbued with true Benedictine spirituality.
I first met Maire when she was a research fellow at St Hugh's College in Oxford and I was a graduate student in the Music Faculty based at The Queen's College. She was a familiar figure negotiating the road network of Oxford on her bicycle, and many's the fine conversation I had with her as I came to appreciate increasingly the depths of her intelligence and spirituality. My wife Patricia and I renewed our friendship with her in recent years and we were so very sad to learn of her passing. May she Rest in Peace and Rise in Glory.

I have lost a beloved, lifelong friend, whom I will miss greatly. We all have lost an outstanding personality with a loving heart, great intellect and wide foresight. She created an intellectual center through the corporation with Notre Dame university, as well as a spiritual center by realizing the plans to build a new monastery.
The west of Ireland and beyond will profit immensely from this legacy

Sincere sympathy to the Benedictine Community and her sister Una and Family on the death of Sr Maire. May her gentle soul rest in Eternal peace.
Sr. Maire was much loved by the Connellan family. My late parents, Marie and Liam Connellan, valued her friendship enormously. We held her in such high regard, often marvelling at her great intellect, her vision and her humanity. She had a delightful sense of humour too. We were blessed to have had her in our lives.
It is very comforting to think of her now experiencing the love in the Cardinal Basil Hume quote she shared with me after Mum's death : 'Soon after you're dead - we're not sure how long - but not long, you'll be united with the most ecstatic love you've ever known. As one of the best things in your life was human love, this will be love, but much more satisfying, and it will last forever'.
My sincere condolences to her family and to all the community in her beloved Kylemore.
We are so very sad to hear of Sister Maire's passing and send our thoughts and condolences to all the community. Though we only knew her briefly, Sister Maire made a great impression on us and we will long remember her wise words and warm welcome.
