Deepest sympathy to Maria, John, Michael, Margaret and families on the passing of Frances. It fills us all with great sadness to think we’ll never see your mum in the old house again, or receive another letter full of news and pictures, or hear her voice down the telephone. Her passing leaves a void in all of our hearts and our thoughts are with you for the funeral mass, we’re sorry we can’t be there in person. May she rest in peace.
