We offer our heartfelt thanks to the many friends, neighbours, worker colleagues who visited our home, attended the Wake, Funeral service and burial and who provided emotional and practical support for us at this difficult time, especially those who brought food and helped around the house.
For those who telephoned, travelled long distances, sent floral tributes, cards and messages of condolences on RIP.ie, as well as those who made charitable donations, we are truly grateful.
To all those who participated in the Mass, especially the choir, Reverend William Davern who celebrated Mike's Mass with Fr. Sean, Canon Ryan and Fr. Eddie. Declan from Martin Ryan Transport who escorted Mike from home, Marcus from Davern's Funeral Directors for his sensitive and professional handling of arrangements and Helena Ryan who showed great kindness and practical support to our family at such a difficult time for us, your help and support made our loss more bearable.
A special word of thanks to the doctors and nurses of the intensive care department of UHL who looked after Mike in his final days, especially Dr. Jonathan Roddy, Ellie, Peter, Martina and Claire, the organ donation team Jen & Bernie, Liz from Patient Advocacy. The compassion and kindness they showed to us as a family will never be forgotten.
We would especially like to thank all those who continued to support us and look after us this past year since Mikes passing, we will be forever grateful.

The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will be offered for your intentions.
The First Anniversary Mass for Mike will be held on 25th of August at 11am in St John the Baptist Church Hospital. All are welcome.
Those special memories of you will always bring a smile,
if only I could have you back for just a while.
Then we could sit and talk again, just like we used to do,
You always meant so very much and always will do too.
The fact that you're no longer here, will always cause me pain,
But you're forever in my heart, until we meet again.
