Belated condolences from Breege McGreal (daughter of Pat McGreal (Achill) and Madge McCauley (Aranmore). Unfortunately I don't have contact details for anyone, and my son found this while researching our family tree and my Uncle Manus. It would be great to make contact with my McCauley cousins in Chicago. Breege O'Sullivan- McGreal (e-mail: [email protected])

I truly loved your mother and father. They were very good to me. I'm so sorry I missed the service but I received the information too late. At least I did get to say goodbye to my dear Aunt Gracie. With all my love,

To the family of Grace~

I loved your mother and father.
My mother and I used to visit every Friday or Saturday nite with all the friends from Arranmore. We would laugh our heads off at everything.
I was about 14 or 15 when Grace asked me to be Godmohter of Maryanne. She was very trusting, me in high heels on those high stairs.
Becuase of health reasons we are unable to attend the wake. I will have a mass said for dear Grace.
Maryanne, if you ever get a chance, please call me 773-282-0263.
We're truly sorry ~ we loved her.
