KEANE - Dr. Francis Xavier (Phibsborough, Dublin), (May 13, 2023) - On the first anniversary of Frank’s death his children Miriam, Conrad and extended family wish to acknowledge and thank all those who sympathised and provided kind support in the weeks and months after his passing. Particularly Rev. Fr. Tom O’Shaughnessy and Rev. Fr. Stephen Foster O.S. CAM who officiated at Frank’s Requiem Mass at Christ The King, Cabra, those who arranged beautiful music and to Massey Bros. for the funeral arrangements. We sincerely thank the staff of the Mater Private, all those provided care and those who were good friends to our Dad before he died. Miss Margaret Sleator and the hospital Chaplaincy team were a blessing to us all.

We extend our gratitude and appreciation to all those who knew Dad over the years, particularly his former colleagues of NRH where he retired as Consultant in Orthopaedics in 2001, advancing medicine through Kinetic Therapy and his innovative RotoRest bed. The generous donations to MQI for his autobiography were graciously received. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will be offered for your intentions as a gesture of thanks. Dad was laid to rest at St. Mochonogue’s Cemetery,        Kilmacanogue.  A place close to his heart by the Sugar Loaf. Please pray for the deceased, friends and family. 

Requiescat in pace.
