Ar scáth a chéile a mhaireann na daoine" (People live in each other's shadows)
We are all interconnected. During this time of sorrow, may we offer mutual support, shelter and strength to one another whilst navigating this community bereavement and loss of a loved one. May we share our humanity, vulnerability and human need to look after each other. May we shield and protect each other from adversity through our presence and interdependence.
May we all emphasise the importance of community support and solidarity during this time of sadness and may we all come together and be a reminder to each other that no one is expected to go through life's challenges alone.
The funeral will take place Monday morning with the wake at Padraig's home 12pm - 10pm Saturday & Sunday. Those wishing to pay their respects should park at Loughmacrory chapel car park where buses will bring you across and back.
D’imigh tu i mblath na hóige, ar Sholas na bhFlaitheas go raibh do anam geal
(You departed in the bloom of youth, may your pure soul be granted the Light of Heaven)
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
