We are so sorry to hear of Sr. Mary Paul’s passing. Over the time our Dad was a resident at Sonos in Knock we had many conversations with her on our walks down the hall passing her room and seat with a view of everything on the corner of the second floor. We would often sit down for a chat with her and she would talk to us fondly about her nieces and her proud Tipperary heritage.

May she rest in gentle peace and meet up with Dad again in heaven. He passed away only a couple of weeks before her.
