In Loving Memory of Marjorie

2nd Anniversary – 8th March 2026

Two years have passed since our beloved Duchess, Mammy, Granny and Friend, Marj, left this world on 8th March 2024, held closely and tenderly by her loving family. Not a day has gone by that we haven’t felt the ache of her absence or wished for one more smile, one more hug, one more moment.

Marjorie prayed hard, laughed loud, and loved without boundaries. Her kindness wrapped around everyone she met, her humour brightened even the darkest days, and her faith carried her—and all of us—through life’s challenges. She cared deeply, freely, and without hesitation. To be loved by her was one of life’s greatest blessings.

Since her passing, our hearts have been lost and broken. Words fall short of describing how deeply she is missed—by her family, her friends, and all who were fortunate enough to share in her warmth. Life has been quieter, colder, and changed forever.

But her spirit lives on in every memory, every story told, every prayer whispered, and every burst of laughter she gifted us. We honour her today and always.

Loved beyond words, missed beyond measure and forever in the hearts of her loving husband Laurence, daughter Laura, Son Joe, Daughter-in-Law Linda, Son-in-Law Brian and grandchildren Holly, Joshua and Aalyiah.

For those who think of her please offer a prayer in her memory. St Anthony pray for her

Marjorie’s anniversary mass will be celebrated in the Church of the Sacred Heart Carndonagh on Friday 6th March at 7 p.m. All welcome.

The family of Tina Gallagher (Doran) would like to sincerely thank everyone who supported and sympathised with them on Tinas recent passing.

We are deeply grateful for the calls, messages, prayers, Mass cards, food and the many kind gestures shown to our family. Sharing your memories of Tina has brought us great comfort during this difficult time.

Our heartfelt thanks to the first responders and ambulance personnel who attended our home. We are especially thankful to the ENT Department and cancer nurses at St. James’s Hospital, Dublin, for their exceptional care and kindness over the past three years. We also wish to thank Lisa, Rachel and all of the staff at M**f Health Centre, Buncrana medical centre and Duffys pharmacy for their compassion and professionalism, which meant more to us than words can express.

Sincere thanks to Inishowen Funeral Directors- Shaun and Gerard, for the beautiful send-off, to Fr. Baker for celebrating Tina’s funeral mass and for his presence in our home, and to Erin Carlin, David Craig and Banjo for the beautiful music. We are also grateful to the Cyclist’s Rest, Fahan, for hosting a lovely celebration of Tina’s life.

As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, please accept this acknowledgment as a token of our deep gratitude for all of the support shown to our family, in every way, big and small.

Tina’s Months Mind Mass will take place on Friday 6th March at 7pm in St. Mura’s Parish, Fahan.
