Frances’ husband Leo, her sons & daughters Jenny, Leo, Barry, Noel, Síobhán, Niamh, Jonathan & Elaine (O’Reilly), her brothers Joe, Mick & Peter along with our extended families wish to extend our heartfelt thanks for all the kind expressions of condolence and support we received on the recent sudden loss of our beloved Fran.

We thank most sincerely all those who sympathised with us, attended the funeral home, removal, funeral Mass and burial, all who sent mass cards, sympathy cards, floral tributes and to those who travelled long distances to be with us.

Our thanks to Fr. Pádraig O’Cochláin for celebrating such a beautiful funeral Mass, thank you to Michael Flood & Patricia Kavanagh for their wonderful music. Thank you to Fr. Roger O’Neill for a prayerful committal service & John Breen for the moving tribute you paid to Fran.

We wish to offer our sincere thanks to Dr. Foster & Nurse Lauren, Laura & the staff of Armstrong Life Pharmacy for the care & kindness shown to Fran over the years.  We are eternally grateful to the Ambulance crew and An Garda Síochána for their compassion and professionalism.

Our grateful appreciation to Helena and all at Hudsons Funeral Directors for their compassionate manner and kindness in dealing with the funeral arrangements.  Thank you to Joe and Tom, who took such good care preparing Fran’s final resting place.  Thanks to The Bridge Hotel & The Loch Garman Arms for their hospitality.

A special word of thanks to our very kind relatives, neighbours and friends, who helped in any way.

Due to the amount of support we received it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, we trust this acknowledgement will be accepted by all as a token of our heartfelt appreciation.

Fran’s Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated on Sunday 16th October at 11.30am in The Church of Saints Mary & Peter, Arklow, which can be viewed on http://www.arklowparish.ie/webcam/
