John’s daughter Áine, sons Daragh, Niall & Benjamin, brothers Joey, Michael, Tommy, Pat, Kevin & Kieran, sisters Mary, Una & Ita & all his family wish to extend most sincere thanks for the many expressions of sympathy & support shown to them throughout John’s recent passing.
Thank you to everyone who visited John’s home & to all those who attended his removal, funeral Mass & burial, especially those who travelled long distances. Thank you to those who sent Mass cards, those who phoned, wrote or shared happy memories online, those who couldn’t be present but joined in the celebration of John’s life via webcam & those who donated generously to Wicklow Hospice in his memory:
Our most sincere thanks to Dr. Sinead Sheehan & to Michael Tierney & his staff, to the kind & caring staff of St. Vincent’s Hospital, Dr. Lisa Prior & the team at the Beacon Hospital & Wicklow Hospice for the comfort & dignity you brought to John’s final weeks.
Special thanks to Fr. Derek Doyle for his understanding & support throughout this difficult time & for celebrating such a beautiful funeral Mass, to Liam Kinsella for his wonderful singing & to Bridget Kenny for such lovely accompaniment.
To colleagues, neighbours & friends, old & new, we thank you for your continued support & kindness.
Thanks also to the management & staff of the Arklow Bay Hotel & Delightfully Delicious for their hospitality, to Chris Caffrey for tending to the grave & to all at John Sweeney and Sons Funeral Directors.
As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, we trust that this acknowledgement will be accepted by all as a token of our sincere appreciation.
John’s Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated on Sunday 22nd June at 11.30am in St.’s Mary & Michael’s Church. Those who cannot attend are welcome to join via webcam:
