We are deeply indebted to Dr. Michael Casey, the staff at Tullig Medical Centre, Mrs. Nora Casey, and Dr. Mark Henderson for the remarkable kindness and care shown to Tim.

A sincere thank you to Mulcahy’s Pharmacy, to our dedicated community health nurses, and to his committed carers at home and at Araglen House.

Thanks to Tim’s good friend Séamus and the choir, and organist Kathleen O’Connor, who greatly enhanced the celebration.

To Davy, Cora, and all at Tarrant’s Undertakers, we are most grateful for their professionalism and personal touch.

 A special thanks to our wonderful neighbours, relatives, and friends who supported us at this difficult time and to all who travelled long distances to be with us to share in our grief. Thanks to those who organized the parking and all who took part in the guard of honour.

 The numerous messages of condolence we received have been a huge consolation and all were gratefully appreciated.

Wonderful School Photo of the 1940s

We thank Eily Buckley not only for the wonderfully historic School Photo of the 1940s but also its very comprehensive caption.   The photo features Eily’s late sister, Mary who was also known as Sr. Rupert, a Presentation Sister who was especially renowned in her role as Choir Coordinator supreme in the very beautiful St. Mary’s Cathedral, Killarney.  This photo is sure to evoke special memories for many.   It was taken in the playground of Millstreet’s Presentation N.S..  Tap on the images to enlarge.  (S.R.)
