My sincere condolences to Mary´s sister. I have known Mary for many years as a member of St Charles Church and enjoyed her company at Sunday breakfasts and occasional luncheons. She was a pleasure to be with and .always had a positive Irish attitude. She will be truly missed by all who knew her. RIP
