On the first anniversary of Nora's passing, her husband Jerry, daughter Mary Margaret, sons Edmond & Jerry, son in law Peter, daughters in law Carmel (deceased) & Sonya, grand-daughters Emma, Konnie & Sarah, sisters, brothers, sisters-in-law & brothers-in- law would like to express their heartfelt thanks to everyone for their sympathies & support on our very sad loss.

Our sincere thanks to our extended family, friends & neighbours who called to our homes to share their fond memories of Nora. Thanks to all who sent mass cards, flowers, messages of condolence, made phone calls & attended the Rosary, Requiem Mass & Burial. Also, to those who couldn’t attend but kept us in their thoughts & prayers.

A special word of thanks to the Emergency services. To Fr. Francis Manning for the comfort he gave to our family & his thoughtful & eloquent celebration of the funeral. Thanks to the sacristan Kathleen Enright for helping with the mass. Thanks to Jerry O Riordan & Christy Mullane for the beautiful music.

A sincere thanks to Grace’s Funeral Directors, Kanturk for their kindness, thoughtfulness & professionalism with the funeral arrangements.

As it is impossible to thank everyone individually, please accept this acknowledgment as an expression of our gratitude. We appreciate more than words can express & it will always be remembered.

First Anniversary Mass will take place at 11.30am on Sunday 23rd October in St Mary’s Church, Newmarket.

God called your
name so gently
That only you could hear
No one heard the footsteps
Of the Angel drawing near…
Softly from the shadows,
there came a gentle call,
you closed your eyes
and went to sleep…
You quietly left us all.
