Little Bobby with his doting big brother, Joe.
Bobby Jay Rooney, born on October 14, 2018, sadly passed away on November 17.
A beautiful baby boy who brought happiness to all the corners of his parents' world in his short life, Bobby's passing was the result of a cot death.
Though his life was too short, it was filled with very special memories that will be treasured by his family forever.
Bobby will be missed by his heartbroken mother, Fidelma, his father John and his older brother Joe.
His loss will also be heavy on the hearts of his grandfathers, Joe and Seamus, his grandmother Phyllis, aunt Natasha and uncles Raymond, Stephen and John, as well as members of his extended family and family friends.
The family takes some comfort in knowing that baby Bobby will be looked after in Heaven by his other grandmother, Mary.
