Steve’s wife Jane, son Patrick, daughter Margaret, son-in-law Jason, granddaughter Amelia & all his family wish to thank each & every person who supported them through the heartbreaking loss of a much-loved husband, father, grandfather & friend.

 

Thank you to everyone who visited the funeral home, those who attended Steve’s removal, funeral Mass & burial, those who sent Mass cards, letters, texts & online condolences, those who sent floral tributes & all those who couldn’t be present but joined in the celebration of Steve’s life via webcam.

 

Thank you to the doctors, nurses & caring staff of Beaumont & St. Vincent’s Hospitals for their great efforts throughout Steve’s final weeks.

 

A very special thank you to Fr. Martin Jose for his kindness, guidance & for celebrating such a beautiful funeral Mass & to Avril O’Toole & Bridget Kenny for such lovely music.

 

Thanks also to Peter Dempsay for releasing the doves at Steve’s graveside.

 

To David, Louise & all our extended family, our kind neighbours & friends & to Steve’s colleagues, your support & compassion will never be forgotten.

 

Thanks also to Jason & Tom for tending to the grave & 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.

 

Steve’s Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated on Sunday 7th September at 11.30am in St. Mary & Peter’s Church. Those who cannot attend are welcome to join via webcam;
