Patrick’s daughter Siobhan and son Steven along with all his family wish to extend their most sincere and heartfelt thanks for the support and kindness shown to them at the time of their Dad’s sad passing.

Thank you to everyone who visited Dad’s home, brought food, attended Dad’s removal, funeral Mass and burial, sent mass cards and especially those who travelled long distances to be with us and those who could not be present but joined us via webcam.

Thank you to those who made charitable donations to www.alzheimers.ie in Dad’s memory, we are truly grateful.

Our warmest thanks to the management and staff of Asgard Lodge Nursing Home for the love, care and dignity shown to Dad during his time there especially during his final days. A special thanks to the staff for the care and support shown to us during Dad’s final days. Also remembering Theresa who cared for Dad at home, we are truly grateful.

A special thank you to Arklow Medical Practice, especially Dr. June Coates for the care Dad received over the years.

Thank you to Fr. Murphy for celebrating such a lovely funeral Mass and to Rose Hudson for the beautiful singing.

To Helena, Willie and Christopher, Hudson Funeral Directors, thank you for your utmost professionalism and compassion.

Thank you to Joe & Tom for tending to the grave and thank you to the management and staff of the Arklow Bay Hotel for their hospitality after the funeral.

To those who helped in any way, your contribution made our loss more bearable. As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually please accept this acknowledgement as an expression of our deepest gratitude.
