The family of Maureen (Birdie) Phillips wish to express their sincere thanks to all those who sympathised with them in the recent sad loss of a much loved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, cousin, aunt, neighbour and friend. Heartfelt thanks are extended to those who sent cards and messages of condolences, provided food and attended the wake and funeral service.
We would like to express a special thanks to the Doctors and Nurses of Glendermott Medical Centre, in particular Dr Williams, direct nurse team, the Hospital at Home Team (in particular Dr Walsh) and to the wonderful Marie Curie nurses who provided such excellent care. Their support and guidance during this time was invaluable.
Our thanks also go to Father’s Canny, Lagan and Joshy for celebrating her Requiem Mass. Thanks also to those who participated in the Mass, particularly the children and staff of St. Columba’s Primary School, Newbuildings, for the Guard of Honour.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation to her neighbours in Prehen who were so caring.
It would be impossible to thank everyone individually so please accept this as an expression of our sincere appreciation and gratitude.
Finally, we would also like to extend our thanks to Willie and Kieran O’Brien, funeral directors, who looked after us and acted with care and dignity throughout and ensured the funeral and wake went smoothly and without any issues.

Birdie’s Month’s Mind Mass will take place on Monday 18th November in St. Mary’s Oratory, Newbuildings at 7pm. Everyone welcome.
