NOLAN, Colette

NOLAN, (née Murray), Colette, (Milltown, Dublin), December 26, 2016. Her son and daughter, John and Suzanne (Kehely) and families wish to gratefully acknowledge the kindness and many expressions of sympathy shown to us following our very sad loss. We are most grateful to those friends, neighbours and colleagues who provided unwavering support to us in so many ways before, during and after the funeral; to Fr. Conor Harper SJ who with Fr. Tom Layden SJ and the assistance of Donnybrook Choir and musicians celebrated a beautiful Requiem Mass and kindly organised the Month's Mind; to the many dedicated staff at St. James's, St. Vincent's, St. Luke's and the Dental Hospitals, Caritas Centre and Milltown TotalHealth Pharmacy and the local public health nurses. A special word of deep gratitude to the ward nurses and pain management team in St Luke's, Rathgar for the tender care shown to Colette in what was to be her final weeks. Finally special thanks to those that sent cards, flowers and messages, visited, prayed and laughed and cried with Colette while she was sick - she was greatly comforted by this love. Please accept this acknowledgement as an expression of our deepest gratitude. The Holy Sacrifice of Mass will be offered for your intentions.The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved.
