Our deepest sympathies and condolences go out to the Doyle and Friel families. We are so sorry to hear of Grandma's passing.

We know how much her smile brightened your day.

Grandma blessed so many people with her love and kindness.

She touched so many lives in the best way.

Over the years, I got to know her and, before long, she became the woman I call Grandma.

Sending love, thoughts, and prayers. She was a beautiful soul and has left a trail of beautiful memories.

"May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rain fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.

And until we meet again, May Gold hold you in the palm of His hand."

Grandma, I promise I will comb the back of my hair.

We know you are watching over us from heaven.

We love you.

Ann & Dermot.
