In loving memory of Mary Ann O'Beirne, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, daughter, aunt, sister, cousin and dear friend to many others, was called home to be with our Lord on Thursday, 18 July 2024.

Dr. Robert & Mary Ann O'Beirne celebrated 63 years of marriage. Together, they worked hard to raise their family and build a successful life. They were blessed with 12 children, 25 grandchildren and 25 great-grandchildren. Their steadfast faith in God and their precious children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were always the center of their lives. Mary Ann also had many nieces and nephews who she loved dearly.
