The death has occurred of:
Helen McAllister (Kilrea)
Stephanie, Randal, Helena and the family circle of the late Helen R.I.P. wish to express their sincere thanks to all those who sympathised with them in their recent bereavement.
A special thanks to Fr. McDermott C.C. for his spiritual support, guidance and celebrating a very special Requiem Mass.
Thanks also to the Gribbin Girls for the beautiful music during the service and to the sacristan and those who prepared the grave.
The family wish to especially thank the kind relatives, friends, neighbours and members of the wider community who helped them during this difficult time. Thanks to those who attended the wake, phoned, messaged, sent cards, visited, sent donations and to those who gathered along the route to the Church and attended the funeral, we are truly grateful.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the outstanding team from Ann’s Home Care for their dedication, kindness and care for Helen. The Blue Gate Care Home for their support during day visits and also the NHSCT staff for their expertise and support. To her private carers Bernie, Mairead, Colette, Assumpta, Denise for their exceptional care and attention for Helen and the family over the last few years.
Sincere thanks also to the doctors and staff of Kilrea HC, District Nurses and Shields Pharmacy Kilrea for all their care and support.
Finally, sincere thanks to Eily, Gregory and Michael Og McKiernan for the compassionate, professional and sensitive manner in which they carried out all the funeral arrangements.
Although impossible to individually thank all those whose kindness and thoughtfulness has brought such comfort at this sad time, the family trust this will be accepted by all with their heartfelt thanks.
The Holy sacrifice of the Mass will be offered for the intentions of all.
The Month's Mind Mass for Helen and 1st Anniversary Mass for Ronnie will be celebrated on Sunday 9th July at 10am in St. Mary’s Church, Drumagarner.
