He gave his all!
O 'Reilly. Also concelebrating the Mass were his friends Father Frank Wallace CSSR, Dr Francis Kearnan and Father J. Mullins SMA. Mr Carley was a long time president of the Holy Name Society. Many of his old friends recall his monthly visits with the then administrator Mons. J. Hogan, prior to the 2nd Sunday in each month, Holy Name Sunday. He was the
principal organiser of the Holy Name retreats at the Monastery, which resulted in the Cathedral branch having the most members attending over a decade. His other works included membership of the St Vincent de Paul Society. He was chief organiser of all functions at the Cathedral, and assisted with arrangements for a Christ the King Procession at Aquinas. In his later years he was the editor of Journal at the Little Sisters of the Poor. Mathew Carley was a retiring man of quiet disposition, never enjoyed wealth, or privilege and indeed never sought it. The measure of his contribution was he gave all his time and talents for the Church he so loved.
We wish to draw to your a ttention that our prices range from a very low cost funeral — through to the more sophisticated which may be desired by some people. We emphasise that the claims of new funeral directors of having initiated low cost funerals are not true. Mead, Son & Co. have always provided low cost facilities upon request and have in fact supplied specially low cost funerals where hardship was observed. For further information please
