Geraldine McWeeney Obituary

Geraldine Kyle McWeeney, age 76, of Derry, Ireland, passed away on April 21, 2024 with her husband by her side. Her rebellious, loving, generous, and ridiculously funny nature will be missed by many.
Geraldine is survived by Tony, her husband of 55 years, her eldest son, Gerry, and daughter Maureen (Steve). She also leaves behind her most beloved grandchildren: Claire, Grace, Dillon, Conor, Emily, Sarah, and Abby. In addition, she is survived by her siblings, Terence (Shirley), Brian (Sally) and Kathleen (Mike), and many cherished nieces and nephews including Kerry, Robert, Colm, Megan, Sean, Sarah, Stephen, Brian, Suzanne and Fiona. Geraldine had the good fortune of having life long friends who loved her dearly and whom she adored and cherished. The McWeeney Family wishes to thank the many family and friends who called and visited her, and expressed their love to her before her passing.
She is now reunited with her son, Anthony, parents Gerry and Celine Kyle, and sister Ann. She will be buried in her home country of Ireland with her son, Anthony.
Geraldine opened the Seal Beach Drive-In Dairy with her husband before embarking on a successful career as a realtor and property manager. Geraldine and Tony raised their family in Costa Mesa, and upon retirement moved to Mexico followed by adventures in Northern California where they spent time with grandkids while reconnecting with a vibrant Irish community in Petaluma. However, Seal Beach drew them back, and their time here was an opportunity to reconnect with lifelong friends, and loving family including many cousins who brought joy and laughter to their lives.
A Celebration of Life will be held in late summer at St. Anne's Church in Seal Beach, where she and her husband exchanged vows 55 years ago.

My early childhood memories are full of wonderful times with Geraldine and her family. Her smile, her contagious laughter, her mischievousness, but mostly her warmth and kindness. I will NEVER forget you Geraldine!!!

We lost one of the most beautiful souls I´ve ever known. Treated everyone the same, no judgment just friendship, kindness, fun (singing and dancing to Alice!) and true beauty. Ní bheidh a leithéidí le feiceáil arís. Until we meet again. Sheila, Eamon, Julie & Sadhbh McClenaghan, Limerick, Ireland xxxx

Geraldine & I enjoyed drinking wine together and were nicknamed the Chardonnay Sisters. We also enjoyed buying lottery scratcher tickets together. She was such a kind, loving and funny woman and will be missed
