We are deeply touched by the generosity of all who visited our home, attended the funeral, sent Mass or sympathy cards, offered messages of comfort, or provided assistance in any form.

We would like to extend our thanks to Father Colum Wright for his spiritual guidance and for officiating the beautiful Requiem Mass. Our thanks also go to Niamh Murray for her exceptional musical contributions.

A special word of thanks goes to the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust for their outstanding care and compassion shown to James. Your kindness has brought great comfort to us during this difficult time. A heartfelt mention also goes to James’ uncle, Graham, for watching over him and accompanying him home to his loving family — you will never know how much this meant to us.

We would also like to express our deepest and most heartfelt thanks to Louise, Francie and Nicola at McAlinden and Murtagh Funeral Directors. Your endless compassion, gentle guidance, and unwavering professionalism have carried us through one of the most painful and difficult times of our lives.
