On behalf of the Farrell Family.

The loss of a loved one at any time is a very sad occasion for family and friends.
At this time, with all the restrictions the loss is made sadder and all the more difficult.
I want you to know that as Public Representatives, we all understand the burden that the current regulations place on all.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy at this time of loss.
In time I hope you will be able to reflect and remember fondly the moments you shared with Tara.
Stay safe and look after each other.
May she Rest in Peace and God bless you all.

So sorry to hear of Taras passing. I had the pleasure of working with Tara for many years in Cappagh from when she initially started, left for the Mater Private and then came back in her managerial role. She was a tour de force in the department and was already hugely missed during her absence since her illness. She was an example of bravery to us all during her sick leave turning up in the coffee room on several occasions bringing in breakfast for her colleagues and catching up on how their lives were going - never focussing on herself despite the awful illness she was fighting - except to say how great Mark and his family were to her. Words are inadequate to express my sympathy to Mark and Taras mum except to say that hers was a life lived as much to the full as possible and we are all better people from having known her. Rest in peace.

Mark, So sorry to hear of Tara's passing.

So deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Tara. My sincere condolences to all who loved her. Rest in Peace Tara x

Sincere sympathies to all Tara’s family. I had the privilege of working with Tara in St Marys ward in Cappagh. Tara came to help with the paediatric section of the ward. She had a lovely way with the children and was always in good form and full of ideas. Tara worked hard but always with a smile, nothing was a problem, we all loved to see her coming. May she rest in peace

My most sincere condolences to Tara's family. An inspirational woman who I had the pleasure to work with and learn from in Cappagh. She'll always be in our hearts.
