Robert’s wife Betsy, his children Theresa, Anthony, Rachel, Sabrina, David, Samantha & Ben & all his family would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every person who offered sympathy & support throughout our recent sad loss.

Thank you to those who visited the funeral home, attended Robert’s removal, funeral Mass & burial, those who sent Mass cards, those who phoned, text or shared kind messages of sympathy online & to those who couldn’t be present but joined us on webcam. Thanks also to all those who donated generously to the Arklow Lifeboat in Robert’s memory;

Our sincere thanks to the doctors, nurses & staff of St. Vincent’s Hospital & to the team at Sheltonville Surgery for their great care over the past few years & most especially throughout Robert’s final weeks. Thank you also to the staff of Grant’s Pharmacy for all their assistance.

Thank you to Fr Pádraig Ó’Cochláin for his prayers, guidance and beautiful funeral Mass & to Karla Tracey & Bridget Kenny for such lovely music. 

To our own extended families, our wonderful neighbours & friends, your kindness & support will never be forgotten.

Thanks to John Earls for leading Robert’s funeral procession with such dignity & respect, to Jimmy Reid for his beautiful musical tribute & to Peter Dempsey for releasing the doves of peace.

Thanks also to Joe & Tom from RSS for tending to the grave, the management & staff of The Old Ship for their hospitality & 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. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will be offered for the intentions of all.

Robert’s Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated on Sunday 25th August at 8.30am in Saints Mary & Peter’s Church. Those who cannot attend are welcome to join via webcam;
