i will miss you so much
JOHN KEANE
Three generations of the Keane family; my father Sean, my son Aidan and I have enjoyed the hospitality and good humour of my Aunt Mary. I spoke with Aunt Mary last week and being unable to do so again will miss her even more. I take comfort in Mary’s great faith and that The Lord has called his child home, may she rest in peace. My deepest condolences, prayers and best wishes to Sean, Shannon, Sheila, Brian and their families.

I have fond memories of my Aunt Mary when I visited America for the first time and spent the summer in Elmhurst and also when seeing her on trips to Ireland. May she rest in peace. My condolences to Sheila, Brian, Sean and Shannon.

RIP Aunt Mary, you will be sadly missed. You sent me a lovely letter following my mum’s passing which cheered me when I was at a very low point.
My condolences and sympathies to Sheila, Brian, Sean & Shannon.
