Kathleen Tierney
(née Cunningham)

Kathleen Theresa Tierney (nee Cunningham) Broomfield East and formerly of Clooneen, Granard, Co. Longford.

Kathleen passed away very peacefully on Sat, 22nd of January 2022, in the wonderful care of the doctors and staff of Ward 3B University Hospital Cork. Predeceased by her cherished daughter Shirley Tierney Everatt and recently by her beloved husband Paddy J Tierney.

Heartbroken and missed by her wonderful daughter Brenda and her ever loving son Mervyn. Also missed by her sister Breda Flood and her husband Pat (New Jersey), Sisters in law Rose and Beatrice Cunningham (Granard), Mary Tierney (Butlersbridge, Cavan), brother in law Vincent Tierney (Kettering, UK), his wife Elizabeth, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, Eileen, nieces, nephews, in-laws and her many friends, particularly her best friend Sue Perrott who visited, supported and helped her twice weekly for the past number of years.

A huge thank you must also go to Brenda for her wonderful Home Caring 24/7 for Mam for the past 3 and a half years and also for Dad for the first 1 and a half years of a 3 year period. Practically single-handedly she ensured that both their final wishes were brought to fruition with immense dignity and grace.

May Kathleen Rest In Peace
