ROSEMARY McSHANE RIP
The family of the late Rosemary McShane wish to extend their sincere thanks and heartfelt gratitude to our friends, family, neighbours, and all those who sympathised with and supported us following the loss of our beloved wife, mum, nana, sister, and friend.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who visited our home, attended the funeral, sent Mass and sympathy cards, and shared messages of condolence. Your kindness and support have been a great comfort to us during this difficult time.
Our sincere thanks to Dundrum and Clough surgeries and Lydian Care for the care, compassion, and professionalism shown to Rosemary. We also gratefully acknowledge all who made donations to Dementia NI.
We wish to express our appreciation to Reverend Martin O’Hagan and Reverend Conor McGrath for celebrating Rosemary’s Requiem Mass, and to Reverend Ciaran Feeney for officiating at the graveside. We thank them for their pastoral care, kindness, and ongoing support to our family. Our thanks also extend to St Colmcille’s Choir, supported by members of the Diocesan Lourdes Choir and the Contact Singers, for the beautiful and uplifting music.
Sincere appreciation is also conveyed to Charles Rourke and Sons Funeral Directors for the professional, compassionate, and attentive manner in which the funeral arrangements were carried out.
Although it is not possible to thank everyone individually, we hope this acknowledgement will express our sincere appreciation and gratitude.
Rosemary, your presence is deeply missed, your memory will be forever treasured, and the rhythm of your dance will beat strongly in our hearts.
Very deeply regretted and lovingly remembered by her heartbroken family and friends.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on her soul.
Rosemary’s Month’s Mind Mass will be held in St Colmcille’s Church, Belfast, on Sunday 1st February at 11:30am.
