Dear Mark & Erc, sincere sympathy to both of you & your families on the sad loss of your dear mother. I have such lovely memories of the times Aunty Kitty visited us. She was so good to visit, phone & write to Ita, her sister & my mother. We loved when she came to visit with your late father Erc & her friend Mary in later years. Aunty Kitty was so full of life and was always interested in family.
Aunty Kitty had such strong faith, may she rest in peace now.
Cousin Joan Casey (nee Wright) Ireland.

I would like to offer my sincere sympathy to Catherine's family and friends especially to Erc, Mark, daughter-in-Laws and grandchildren.
May Catherine's gentle soul rest in peace .

All my family, Kay's sister Julia (known as Sheila), myself (Clare) and my brother and sister Kevin and Catherine, were shocked and saddened to hear of Kay's sudden loss.
Sheila and Kay grew up together in Co Limerick and lived near one another in London as young women. Throughout their lives, they wrote and phoned each other whenever they could.
We remember Kay's intelligence, humour and mostly, her kindness. She was such fun to be around and was brilliant at making sure she visited the wider family around the world as often as she was able. Everyone has happy memories of her visits.
This is a photo of Kay and Sheila together in Birmingham in 2017 in Sheila's flat.
