My deepest sympathy to Mary Joe and Toni on the passing of your dear Dad and Grandad and also to Josie & Frank McGeever and Family on the loss of your Brother and Uncle.

May the road rise up to meet you Gerry.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
