CATHRYN ROSE & EMILY SARAH CUNNINGHAM

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Cathryn Rose and Emily Sarah Cunningham, born and deceased on the 5th of September, 2025. Their presence brought immense joy and light, though it was indeed brief.

Cathryn Rose and Emily Sarah are survived by their devoted parents, Dominique and Adam Cunningham, who will forever cherish the precious moments, however brief, spent with their beautiful daughters. Cathryn and Emily's love will continue to inspire their brother, Emmett Cunningham. Their grandparents, Stacia Mitton and Christine and Stephen Cunningham, mourn the loss of their beautiful granddaughters.

They were predeceased by their grandfather, Mark Manning, who will no doubt guide them in heaven. They will be greatly missed by their aunts, Victoria Manning, Stephanie Dery, and Gabrielle Cunningham, their uncles, Michael Cunningham and Craig Dery, and their cousins, Avianna MacBain and Zachary Cunningham.

A funeral service to honor the brief yet significant lives of Cathryn Rose Cunningham and Emily Sarah Cunningham will be held on the 17th of September, 2025, at 10:30AM at Philbin-Comeau Funeral Home in Clinton, MA. There will be a private burial that the family has asked only immediate family attend at this time. This will then be followed by a reception at 12:00 PM at Turner Hall, 60 Branch St. Clinton, MA, providing an opportunity for loved ones to gather and offer each other comfort during this difficult time.

Despite their time on earth being tragically short, Cathryn Rose and Emily Sarah Cunningham's legacy will persist in the hearts of their loved ones. This heartfelt journey is a painful reminder that life can be fleeting, but love can last an eternity. Their family would like to thank everyone for their support, prayers, and condolences during this delicate period.
