CRONIN

CRONIN (Sinéad) (30 Mayfield Grove, Athlone, Co. Westmeath) (Died October 2O, 2007) - On this the first anniversary of the passing of our beloved Sinéad, we the family, parents Denis and Mary, sisters Gráinne and Deirdre, brother Eoghan, partner Pierre, and extended family would like to offer our deepest and most sincere gratitude to all those who helped and supported us through our very sad loss and all those who supported us during Sinéad's illness. We say thank you to those who called to our home, sent Mass Cards, perpetual enrolments, letters of sympathy and floral tributes. Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended Sinéad's removal, funeral Mass and burial, especially the many friends and colleagues who travelled long distances, some from abroad. A sincere word of thanks to Fr Joe McGrath who was always there for us during those most difficult days. We will never forget the beautiful Mass and his kind and comforting tribute to Sinéad; thank you Fr PJ Hughes for concelebrating the Mass with him. Thank you Fr Declan Shannon for your visits to Sinéad in hospital and your kindness to us since Sinéad's death. We say thanks a million to Sinéad's good friend Georgina who organised the music for the removal and funeral Mass. The music provided by Georgina, Sinéad Moran and Róisin O'Neill did so much to make Sinéad's funeral Mass so memorable. Thank you to the staff and senior pupils of St Joseph's College, Summerhill for the dignified Guard of Honour on both occasions. A special word of thanks to Ronan Murphy and all the staff at PriceWaterhouse Coopers, especially Sinéad's department C.I.P.S., for your kind expressions of sympathy and support. To Sinéad's many school and college friends from St Joseph's College, DCU, Reims Management School and DIT we say thank you so much for being with us. We wish to express our gratitude to the doctors, nurses, staff and Palliative Care Team of Private 1, St James's Hospital for your kindness to and care of Sinéad in her final weeks. We are deeply appreciative of the help given by our wonderful neighbours and friends. Your support given at the time of Sinéad's death and your unceasing kindness and support since have been a source of real consolation to us, thank you all so much. Thanks to Seamus Flynn Funeral Directors for your professional and dignified service and to the Gardaí who controlled the traffic so efficiently and to Dooley's Florists for the beautiful floral arrangements. As it would not be possible to thank everyone individually who supported us, please accept this as a token of our warmest appreciation and sincere gratitude to you all. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will be offered for your intentions. First Anniversary Mass will be celebrated on Sunday, October 19 in Our Lady Queen of Peace, Coosan, Athlone at 10.3Oam.
