Patrick (Patsy) McAshea, Fintona, Co Tyrone.
Died 27th April 2025.
We the family of the late Patrick, are deeply grateful to all those who offered their condolences, prayer’s and support during our recent sad bereavement.
Patrick was the devoted husband of Mary and adored father of Martin, Paul, Adrian, Declan and Conrad. Father-in-law of Noelle, Sharon, Rachel, Bronagh and Oonagh and a dearly loved grandfather, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, cousin and friend.
Thank you to everyone who called to the wake house, helped or brought food, this was greatly appreciated. Our thanks also to those who sent Mass or sympathy cards, messages or flowers. Thank you to those who lined the funeral route or who joined us at the Requiem Mass.
We are blessed to have had the love and support of friends, neighbours and work colleagues, throughout this difficult time, which has helped us in so many ways, to grieve as a family.
A special word of thanks to Father Sean Mulligan for his spiritual support and the very comforting Requiem Mass and to Father McGahan for officiating at the committal. We convey our appreciation also to the sacristan and everyone who took part in the liturgy, especially our readers and our singer Sinead Taggart who provided beautiful, reverent and uplifting music.
Thank you to McAtee Funeral Directors for the dignified and professional manner in which the funeral arrangements were carried out and to the gravedigger Tommy for preparing Patrick’s final resting place. Thank you also to Roisin of Nettles and Petals for the lovely floral tribute.
And finally, we send our sincere thanks and deep appreciation to all the medical professionals and carers with whom Patrick (Patsy) came into contact. We are very grateful for all your help in particular Fintona medical team, Marie Curie and palliative care.
As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, please accept this acknowledgement as a gesture of our gratitude and appreciation.
Patrick (Patsy) is loved and missed every day. May his gentle, kind, generous soul be granted peace and eternal rest. His Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated in St Lawrence’s Church, Fintona on Saturday 24th May at 10am. Our Lady pray for him.
