O'MOORE, Kathryn

O'MOORE - Kathryn (Rathmines, Dublin). On her first anniversary Brian, Deirdre, Tom, Eleanor and Garrett would like to thank all those who were so good to us a year ago. Kathryn was diagnosed with cancer in 2013. The uplifting treatment she received from the team at St Vincent’s Hospital allowed her to live an amazing life for the next seven years. She travelled the world in style and, it must be said, in comfort. When not abroad, she met us every day and was a huge part of the lives of her niece and nephews. Kathryn’s legacy to us all is her great courage in the face of her illness, and ability to enjoy with gusto the time she had. We are very grateful for the messages of sympathy we received. It was marvelous to hear stories of her life from so many of her friends, especially since we could not meet to say goodbye. Thanks also to Jody Fanagan, who was so professional in organising Kathryn’s funeral; to Fr Paul of Beechwood Parish; to all who attended outside the church; and to those who contacted us to mark her first anniversary. We will always remember the many happy days with Kathryn.
