My name is Michael John Connell I live in the small village of Letteragh, Rahoon, Galway....where Margaret was born and raised. May Dad was Margaret´s Uncle John Connell, a brother of Margaret´s Mother, Mary. When any of the Griiffin family were going into town they would stop off at our house, a thatched cottage, on the Rahoon Road. They all called my Dad "Dada Connell".
I offer my sincere sympathy to all the Healy and Griffin families on the passing of Margaret. No doubt she will be greatly missed by you all.
May she rest in peace.

Such dear person. I was Elaine´s teacher at our Lady of Mercy. I had interactions with her siblings also. Such a good group of kids who showcased the love and guidance that Mary provided them. I hope you always remember her kindness and love. God bless all of you. Cindy Rogerson
