Joan

Mote Park, Roscommon Who passed away on the 27th January 2022

On the First Anniversary of Joan’s passing, Joan’s three sons Luke, Gavin and Tomás, her parents Ted and Mary, her sisters, brothers and extended family, would like to express their sincere appreciation and gratitude for all the prayers, support and presence of family, friends, neighbours and colleagues at the time of Joan’s passing and throughout the year since. The outpouring of care and support from all members of the community, near and far, has been nothing short of humbling and heartening.

We wish to acknowledge everyone who joined us in laying Joan to rest. Those who visited our home, attended the Funeral Home, Funeral Mass (in person or online), the Burial, sent Mass cards, messages of condolences, letters of sympathy, floral tributes and food during this difficult time. No act of kindness has gone unnoticed.

Thank you to all those who went to great lengths and travelled long distances to extend their sympathies and share their fond and precious memories of Joan.

A special thanks to Luke, Gavin and Tomás’ friends for all their support at the time of the Funeral and throughout this past year. At the most difficult time in their lives, you showed up for them and their family in a way we will forever be grateful to you for.

Our sincerest gratitude to St. Dominic’s GAA for their Guard of Honour at the Funeral Mass and for the Mass they arranged for Joan when she was ill.

Our heartfelt appreciation to Tremane GAA and our great neighbours who lined the road outside Joan’s house on the morning of the Funeral.

We say a very special thank you for the Guards of Honour by Roscommon CBS, Ballymurray National School and Coláiste Mhuire, Ballygar.

Thank you to Pat and Gillian Smyth for their guidance with the Funeral arrangements and throughout all stages of the process. We also extend our deepest gratitude to the grave diggers Brian O’Roarke and Jimmy McNeill who prepared Joan’s final resting place.

Our sincere appreciation to Joan’s uncle, Fr. Pat Brennan, for celebrating her Funeral Mass and making it so personal. We also thank the 13 other priests for the honour of having them concelebrate Mass with him.

A special word of gratitude to Canon Eugene McLoughlin who said prayers in the Funeral Home, concelebrated Mass with Fr. Pat and for his visits to Joan’s house at the time of her passing and throughout the years.

To Donnacha Beades and Aileen O’Connor - thank you for the meaningful music and singing in the church at the Funeral Mass. Thanks also to Knockcroghery Parish Choir for their music at Joan’s Month’s Mind.

Thanks to Oonagh Hegarty (The Paper Lane), who prepared the Mass booklets.

We thank Hannon’s Hotel and staff for their catering and hospitality on the day of the Funeral.

Though words seem unable to express just what you all have done for us, we will be forever grateful for all the support, comfort and help we received at the time of Joan’s passing and throughout the past year.

As it would be impossible to reply to everyone, please accept this acknowledgement as an expression of our sincere appreciation and gratitude that we will never forget.

The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass has been offered for your intentions.

Joan’s First Anniversary Mass will take place in St. Patrick’s Church, Knockcroghery at 7pm on Friday, 27th January 2023.

Treasured memories of a loving brother, who passed away 28th of January 2010

If we could have a lifetime wish and one dream come true, we would pray to God with all our hearts just to see and talk to you. A thousand words won’t bring you back, we know because we’ve tried, and neither will a thousand tears we know because we’ve cried. You left behind our broken hearts and precious memories too, but we never wanted memories, we only wanted you.
