Noel’s wife Tracey, his son Niall & all his family would like to sincerely thank everyone who offered sympathy, comfort & support throughout Noel’s illness, at the time of his passing & during the weeks since.

Thank you to everyone who visited the funeral home, attended Noel's removal, funeral Mass & burial, sent Mass cards, letters, texts & online condolences, those who travelled long distances to be with us, those who couldn’t be present but joined us in the celebration of Noel’s life via webcam & all those who donated generously to Arklow Cancer Support Group in honour of Noel’s memory.

Our heartfelt thanks to the doctors, nurses & caring staff of Tallaght Hospital who brought such comfort & dignity to Noel’s final year.

Special thanks to Fr. Pádraig Ó’Cochláin for Noel’s beautiful funeral Mass, to Fr. David Brough for his graveside prayers & to Michael Flood & Patricia Kavanagh for such lovely music.

Thank you to Adrian Earls for his beautiful graveside lament & to Noel’s many friends from Arklow Golf Club & Arklow Town Football Club for your respectful Guard of Honour.

Thanks also to the management & staff of The Royal Hotel for their hospitality after the funeral, to Joe & Tom from R.S.S. for tending to the grave & to all at John Sweeney & 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.

Noel’s Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated on Saturday 6th January at 6.30pm in St.’s Mary & Peter’s Church. Those who cannot attend are welcome to join via the church webcam
