It was with much sadness that we learned of the untimely passing of Alice Costello. What a great shame that Alice had to leave this planet at such a relatively young age. Alice was a beautiful lady, I very often met with her in the graveyard, where she would be visiting all of her loved one’s, . Alice was blessed with eternally youthful skin, just a very very beautiful person.
We send our sincere and heartfelt sympathy to all of her family, to her brother Seamus wife Mary and family, to her brother Frank, to her sisters Evelyn, Brenda, and Nora, on the death of their very dear and much loved sister. Sympathy going out to Alice’s Nephew Fr Shane Costello, who Alice was so very proud of on the day of Fr Shane’s ordination to the priesthood in his native Church at Taugheen in recent years, as indeed any aunt would be, so happy, having a priest in the family, is just so wonderful. Sympathy to all of the extended Costello, Grant, and Hession family’s neighbours and friends on the death of dear Alice.
May the beautiful Alice now rest in heavenly peace, where she will be reunited with both parents, and especially her twin brother Johnny, who have gone before her. AMEN 🙏
