Hi Christine, I am so very sad to hear of your mums death. My mum said she had seen a notification in the Church Bullitan but we couldn’t be sure it was Eileen. Mum had literally had a real good chat with your mum when they had finished their shopping in Iceland🥰my sister and I took mum away for a few days after and she was telling me all about it💚they often bumped into each other and mum and your mum had a lovely friendship x Mum can’t believe Eileen passed so soon after last seen her xx XChristine I am so very sorry for her loss, she was a lovely Lady , very much a Lady , always had a little chat together whenever I see her at Mass. The head of hair she had is amazing 🤩, I always will keep in mind and remember her kindness to me when she took me away with you caravanning when we were young, I was so jelalous that you had a mum that could drive And make you the most amazing Bay Cuty Rollers outfit, I couldn’t even manage a scarf 😊Chris, I have only happy fond memories of your mum, petite like mine with an Irish heritage too. I don’t even want to imagine the grief that you, Patricia, Peter and Karen are experiencing but please know that I will think of your Mum with fondness and remember her I. My Prayers. I am absolutely so disappointed that I cannot attend her funeral, Andy and I will be in Italy ( I will definitely light a candle there) I have given my mum the times and she will be there. Again Christine, I am so sad to hear of this sad news but I am certain that she is I. Heavan, God Bless her beautiful soul ( she was a beauty outside too) Love Mary Weller (Galvin)
