Treasured memories of Kate (Kathleen) Dougan, our beautiful mummy, on the second anniversary of her passing, 9th of March 2026.

Mamós 'ear to ear' grin is a light that can never be swept away.
Cherished memories and moments of laughter we share each day

Our lives have changed these past 2 years, and will never be the same,
But you guide us through each day, until we’ll meet again.

A little candle on the grave always shines each night,
To remind us that darkness can always turn to light.

We know you’re here with us, but just not in sight,
We know that you are with us all, each morning, noon and night.

Always loved and greatly missed by her children Christiann, Tomás, Séana & Gráinne, beloved granddaughters Eilidh-Méabh & Lúsaí-Kate, sons-in law, daughtin law, brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews.

Kate will be remembered at mass in St Malachy’s Chapel on Friday 6th March
@7.30pm

Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for her. A Mhuire, Banríon na nGael, guigh uirthi.
