GOD’S GARDEN
God looked around His garden and found an empty place. He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face. He put His arms around you and lifted you to rest. God’s garden must be beautiful He always takes the best. He knew that your were suffering. He knew you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on Earth again. He saw the road was getting rough, and the hills were hard to climb. So He closed your weary eyelids, and whispered “Peace be Thine”. It broke our hearts to lose you but you didn’t go alone for part of us went with you the day God called you home. Loved and remembered by her family. Masses offered.

Many thanks to all Dad’s colleagues in the National Parks and Wildlife Service who travelled to extend their sympathies to us. To our kind and generous neighbours and friends who brought food and refreshments to our homes and continue to support us in many ways, we are forever grateful. Special thank you to Fr. Tom Kearney who prayed with Dad during his last weekend with us and concelebrated the Funeral Mass together with Monsignor Roche, Fr. Breslin and Fr. Allman. To Emma McVeigh for the beautiful music and singing and to the members of Glinsk Altar Society who prepared the church so beautifully. We are grateful to those who donated to Glinsk Pioneer Total Abstinence Association in memory of Dad, he was very proud of his gold pin and all it represents.
Heartfelt thanks to the staff in Roscommon University Hospital, Dr. Christy Cunningham G.P. and staff, David Hynes Pharmacy and staff - you all helped Dad to enjoy his life into his 90th year. Thank you to the wonderful staff in Roscommon Palliative Care who helped us to care for Dad at home over his final weekend.
We will be forever indebted to our neighbours who prepared Dad’s grave so beautifully and to those who managed the traffic flow so well in terrible weather conditions. A special word of gratitude to members of our community who formed a Guard of Honour for Dad, it was a lovely tribute to him.
Thanks also to Pat and Gillian Smyth for their guidance and professionalism with all the funeral arrangements and to Aidan Maloney, Delicious Catering for refreshments and Tommie and Dolores Dowd for their hospitality.
