We hold you close within our hearts, and there you shall remain, to walk with us throughout our lives, until we meet again. So rest in peace dear loved one, and thanks for all you’ve done, we pray that God has given you, the crown you’ve truly won.
When God was making mothers, he must have made a fuss. He spent a lot of time on one and gave that one to us. Of all the gifts in life, however great or small, to have you as our mother was the greatest gift of all.
On losing a Dad As time drifts on, I stop to think about it all. The absence of a Dad, gone, forever more. A strong warm hand; a safe secure hug. A broad wide smile; a short trip away. Those times well spent; those days never lost. I am sad that you are gone but I am glad that you were always there. A dad; my dad. I am longing you forever more.
Sadly missed by your son Michael, sisters Mary, Nancy, Monica and all extended family members. Anniversary Mass will be held this Sunday 28th May at 10am in St. Patrick’s Church, Athleague.

We, Bridie’s daughter Lorraine and son Aidan wish to express our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to all those who supported us in our recent loss. We are truly grateful to those who called personally to our home, attended Bridie’s Removal, Funeral Mass and Burial and to those who watched the Mass online. To those who sent Mass Cards, perpetual enrolments, messages of condolence by text, phone and via RIP.ie, floral tributes and to those who travelled long distances to be with us, we were very touched.
We are extremely grateful to our wonderful relatives, neighbours, friends and colleagues who offered help and kindness in so many ways.
Our sincere thanks to our priest, Fr. Francis Beirne, who celebrated the beautiful Mass and for his support and spiritual guidance. To Liam, Maura and Marion for the beautiful music and for making the Mass so special. To Anne Harlow from Signature Flowers for providing the beautiful floral arrangements.
To Henry from Hamrock’s Funeral Directors for his outstanding professionalism, support and kindness afforded to us over the days of the Funeral when assisting us with the necessary arrangements. To the gravediggers who worked so hard in preparing Bridie’s final resting place in Tisrara Cemetery. Thanks to the Athlone Springs Hotel for the lovely meal provided after the Funeral service. A heartfelt message of thanks to all those who provided food and refreshments to our home during these times.
We will be forever indebted to Geraldine and the wonderful doctors, nurses and staff at the Roscommon Palliative Care Support Unit who cared for Bridie with such kindness, compassion and dignity during her final weeks. We would also like to thank the doctors, nurses and staff at the Galway Clinic, special thanks to the staff of Our Lady of Knock for taking such great care of Bridie during her illness.
To Louis in Conlon’s Chemist, Athleague and Dr Elizabeth Sweeney McSharry and the team at the Family Care Practice, Roscommon for their professionalism and support in caring for Bridie over the years. In addition, we would like to extend our gratitude to the Public Health Nurse, Palliative Care Nurses and Home Support Carers. A special word of thanks to Linda for her exceptional care and kindness shown to Bridie over the past year, we will be forever grateful.

Softly in the morning, you heard a gentle call you took the hand God offered you and quietly left us all.

You never looked for praise, you were never one to boast, you just went on quietly working, for the ones you loved the most.
Your dreams were seldom spoken, your wants were very few, and most of the time your worries, went unspoken too. We miss your smile, your joking ways, we miss the things you used to say, and when old times we do recall, it’s then we miss you most of all
The gates of memory will never close, we miss you more than anyone knows.
Always loved and remembered by Lorraine and Aidan.
~~~~~~ There’s always a face before us, a voice we would love to hear. A smile we will always remember of a brother we loved so dear.
Never forgotten, Liz, Catherine and Padraig.
Bridie’s Months Mind and Joe’s 5th anniversary mass will be celebrated together in The Church of Christ the Good Shepherd, Four Roads on Sunday 28th May 2023 at 11am.
No matter how life changes, no matter what we do. A special place within our hearts is always kept for you.
You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide, and although we cannot see you, you are always by our side.
Sadly missed by her husband Michael, sons Michael and Seamus, daughters Marie, Deirdre, Siobhan and Elaine . Mary’s anniversary mass will be offered in Sacred Heart Church, Roscommon on Saturday 27th May 2023 at 10.00am

Kilrooskey, Corbo, Co. Roscommon (3rd Anniversary) Who passed away on 28th May 2020
If we could visit Heaven, even for a day, maybe for a moment the pain would go away. We’d put our arms around you and whisper “We love you”. Living life without you is the hardest thing we do. No matter how we spend our day, no matter what we do, your memory is our keepsake, of which we’ll never part. God has you in His keeping, we have you in our hearts. “No longer by our side, forever in our hearts”.
Lovingly remembered by your mum Pauline, sister Evelyn and brother-in-law John.
We think about you and we always talk about you too. We have such precious memories but we wish we still had you. Those special years will not return when we were altogether, but the memories that are in our hearts will stay with us forever.
Broken Chain
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one the chain will link us again.
Lovingly remembered and sadly missed by the Mulryan and Walsh families. Masses offered.

Forever loved Evan,Kayla and Ryan.
David’s 2nd Anniversary Mass will be celebrated in St. Ronan’s Church, Taughmaconnell on Sunday 28th May at 11 am.
