Bernice’s mum Patsy, dad John, brother John, her aunts, uncles, cousins & all her family wish to express their most sincere gratitude for the continued kindness & support shown to them throughout this sad time.
While current circumstances couldn’t allow for a huge gathering of extended family & friends to celebrate the life of our beautiful Bernice, we are overwhelmed by the many ways in which you found to express your sympathy, love & support with cards, letters, flowers, online messages & for joining in the celebration of her Funeral Mass via webcam. This has brought us much comfort & we ask that you keep Bernice & all our family in your thoughts & prayers.
Thank you to the emergency services in the U.K. who assisted us on the day Bernice passed away & to Don & his team at O’Dwyer Funeral Directors who helped bring her home to the family who love her, your professionalism & gentle compassion will never be forgotten. To Bernice’s, & our own friends in the U.K., we thank you for your beautiful flowers & many expressions of sympathy & support.
Special thanks to Fr. Brian McKittrick for celebrating such a beautiful Mass & to Mary Graham for her fabulous music. Many thanks also to Rowena, Megan, Gabriella & Ellen for taking part in the liturgy & to Lucinda for your touching tribute.
Thank you to Bill & Joe from R.S.S. for tending to the grave & to all at John Sweeney & Sons Funeral Directors.
Bernice’s Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated on Sunday 6th December at 10am in St. Joseph’s Church Templerainey & all are welcome to join via the Church Webcam;
