Millstreet & Derrinagree
Who passed on
13th December 2022
We think of you with love today
But that is nothing new
We thought about you yesterday
And the day before that too
We think of you in silence
And we often speak your name
All we have are memories
And pictures in a frame.
May his gentle soul Rest in Peace
Lovingly Remembered and Sadly Missed

Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.
Time is flying, with the first ten days of December already gone. Let us not waste our days before the 25th. Or we will end up in a mad rush and spoil the lovely Festive Season for ourselves and those around us . Think about it and if you do you’ll have to agree that getting ready for Christmas could go on for months ahead of the big day. All through the year we come across bargains and offers that would make great Christmas gifts but we tell ourselves that there is plenty of time and other chances will turn up and before we know it we’ve fallen into the same old trap of buying at the last minute. There is a great air of celebration around the place with two weeks more to go. The lovely Christmas Cribs which were made by our gallant Men’s Club have made a great difference this year. The one at the Chapel Gate was blessed by Canon John last week. He invited us all out after the ten o’clock mass one morning and a great crowd assembled. Likewise he blessed the other one on the grounds of our hospital. Each time he complimented all those who were responsible for these two new and welcome features in our Christmas scene.
