Annie, Mary (Shane), Fiona (Sean), Ciaran, Aidan and grandchildren Bláthnaid, Eimear and Erin Rose of the late Tom Smyth would like to express their deepest gratitude to everyone who supported and sympathised with them on their recent sad loss of a treasured husband, father and grandfather.
Heartfelt thanks to our immediate family, relatives, friends, neighbours and anyone who helped in any way, both during Tom’s time in hospital and at his wake.
Sincere thanks to those who attended the wake or funeral Mass, sent cards, brought gifts, flowers and food to our home, sent online messages of condolences, telephoned and those who travelled long distances to attend the wake/ funeral.
We would especially like to thank Fr. Chester for the pastoral care provided to Tom prior to his passing and for celebrating a very fitting funeral Mass for Tom. Thanks also to the readers, Eucharistic Ministers, to Carla, Jackie the organist, Kaoimhe Treanor the musician and the Choir and to anyone who contributed to making Tom’s funeral a personal and reverent celebration.
Our sincere thanks and appreciation to Connolly Funeral Directors for their support and professionalism in carrying out the arrangements for the wake and the funeral. A special thanks to the gravediggers who prepared Tom’s final resting place in such a respectful manner. Our thanks to Roslea Shamrocks GFC for the use of the complex and Caroline Niblock for the catering after the funeral.
A special mention of thanks to Tom’s carers, to Maple Healthcare and to all the staff of South West Acute Hospital, including the paramedics and particularly the doctors, nurses and auxiliary staff who looked after Tom and who cared for him with love, compassion and dignity.
As it is not possible to thank everyone individually, we trust that this acknowledgement will be accepted by all in grateful appreciation.
Tom’s Months Memory Mass will be held on Sunday 17th August 2025 at 10:30am in St. Tierney’s Church, Roslea.
We will miss you greatly Tom, may your gentle soul Rest In Peace
