**** ACKNOWLEDGEMENT****

MULHOLLAND, MARY

We the family of the late Mary Mulholland, Mount Merrion Park Belfast, wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who expressed their condolences and offered support in our recent bereavement. Thank you to all our relatives, friends and neighbours who supported us, sent Mass cards, sympathy messages and cards, telephoned, brought food and gifts, and helped in so many ways. We are especially grateful to all those who visited the wake, attended the funeral mass and made the journey to Mary’s final resting place at St Joseph’s, Glenavy. A special word of thanks to the many carers who helped us care for Mary at home and to the dedicated and compassionate staff at both Dundonald Hospital and Belfast City Hospital. We are deeply thankful to Fr Brendan Hickland for celebrating the funeral mass, to Marion Jordan for the beautiful music and to Cannon Colm McBride who officiated with the graveside prayers. To all at St Clare’s Community Hall, thank you for providing a meeting place after the funeral, to Margaret Bradley and her dedicated team for the catering – it was excellent and especially appreciated by those who had travelled so far to be with us. Finally, we wish to express our appreciation to O’Kanes Funeral Directors, especially James Mullan, for his attentive, compassionate and professional service during this difficult time. We trust that this acknowledgement will be accepted by all as an expression of our sincere appreciation.

Mary’s Month Mind Mass will be celebrated on Monday 10th November at 9.30am in St Bernadette’s Church, Rosetta Road, Belfast.

May she rest in peace.
Our Lady of Knock pray for her.

Seamus and the entire family circle.
