The family of the late Mrs May Byrne, late of Rathgannon, Warrenpoint, wish to express their gratitude to all who sympathised with them in their recent bereavement. We are indebted to all our neighbours, friends and relations who called at the Sands family home at Annaghbane, attended the funeral or sent Mass cards and messages of sympathy. Our sincere thanks to Canon Francis Brown and Fr Charles Byrne for their concelebration of May’s funeral Mass, to Terry Rafferty, organist, and Roisin Devlin, soloist, for the music and to Heaney Keenan undertakers for the dignity of the funeral arrangements.
We are very grateful to the staff of Our Mother of Mercy Nursing Home, Newry, for their dedicated care of May over the last five years.
As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, we trust that this acknowledgement will be accepted by all with our sincere thanks.

Month’s Mind Mass for May will be celebrated on Sunday 31 December at 10.30pm at St Mary’s Church, Chapel Street, Newry.
