Christy’s beloved wife, Bernie, son, daughters and wider family circle would like to express their sincere gratitude to all those who sympathised with us and gave immense support during our recent bereavement.
To the many people who attended Christy’s wake and funeral to pay their respects, and show immense love and support to all of his family. Thank you to all who sent mass and sympathy cards and provided food and refreshments to us in our time of need.
Thanks to Fr. Stephen Ward, Longtower for the most heartfelt funeral mass and to Sarah McGarrity for the beautiful singing.
Thanks to the Doctors and Nurses at ward 41, Altnagelvin hospital. To the district nurses Rachel and Sharon who attended Christy’s home, Mairead and Pamela from the palliative care team, Anne from Marie Curie and the Macmillan team for all the care, guidance and support shown to Christy and his family.
Thank you to all the staff and to Christy’s friends at the Derby bar for your kindness and support
A final word of thanks to Sean Carr and Carr funeral Directors for their professional and dignified manner in how they carried out the funeral arrangements.
As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, we trust that this acknowledgment will be accepted as a token of our heartfelt and sincere appreciation.
