My very deepest sympathy to Marie, Jessica, Michael, Tim, Debbie, David and Jenna on the death of your beloved dad and grandad Tim. I have such fond memories of a wonderful time that my aunt Breege and myself spent with Tim, Nuala and family in Sept. 1978. We visited Carmel and Pebble Beach and so many other places. Nuala, Auntie Breege and myself went gambling in Tahoe and had some laughs! Jim brought us to Bay Meadows and Stella brought us to Chinatown. I remember Tim bringing us to an IceCream Parlour. Nuala and Tim visited us here in Co. Leitrim some years later and I remember us taking a stroll up the lane behind our house. Also remembering Mary and Frank and all the extended Cullinane and Navin families at this time. I remember visiting Mary and Angus and getting a tour of city with Angus, so many happy memories of time spent with you all. Peter was alive when we were there and doing his paper round. Tim is happily reunited now with dear Nuala and Peter, his parents and all his family who have gone before him to their Heavenly reward. May his noble Soul Rest in Peace. Thinking of you all at this sad time and praying for you all. Mary, PatJoe and family.
