Death notice for the town of: Chesterville, Province: Ontario
My deepest sympathy to Gabriel, Gabrielle, Daragh, Clodagh, Emily and Brian on the death of Mary. I was so so sad to hear the passing of Mary. I always enjoyed Mary’s yearly visit to Galway as she was always so warm, friendly and full of fun. Take care during this hard time and thinking of you all in Galway. Rip Mary.
