RIP: Longford community 'heartbroken' following death of 'beautiful friend' Mary Jordan
Late Mary Jordan (née Walsh), Barry, Kenagh, Longford was laid to rest on Monday, August in Carrickedmond cemetery
Sadly we record the death of Mary Jordan of Barry, Kenagh which occurred at her residence after a long illness on Friday, August 22.
Mary, who was in her early sixties, was a very active and popular lady in the Kenagh - Ballymahon locality until she got terminally ill over the past two years.
Mary was formerly Mary Walsh, a daughter of Joe and Bridgie Walsh, Terlicken and only sister to her six brothers.
Along with rearing her family of five children she was a very popular member of the catering business both in Kenagh village and Ballymahon.
The team at Macs Shack in Kenagh paid a lovely tribute to Mary.
“It's with great sadness that we have to share this post. Our beautiful friend and colleague Mary has left us.
“We are heartbroken to have received this news and Macs Shack will never be the same without her.
“Mary was a huge part of our team and everyone loved her. She helped us build the character and environment we still share here today. We are beyond grateful to have shared such special memories with Mary over the years.
“Mary went above and beyond for each and everyone and we will be forever grateful she came into our lives. We keep Mary's family in our hearts and prayers. May her beautiful soul Rest in Peace.”
A very hard worker and devoted mother and wife, Mary was predeceased by her brother Tom who died in a tragic road accident earlier this year, also by her brother PJ and son Patrick and her father Joe and mother Bridgie.
We offer our sincere sympathy to her husband Jimmy, devoted sons and daughters Caroline, Bernard, David, Cathy, Helen and their partners Trevor, Bekah, Tara, Ed and Danny. Her brothers Jody, Ned, Dermot and Martin. Her beloved grandchildren Ava, James, Ellie, Killian, Evan, Theo, Daniel, Daisy, Hallie and Elijah, mother-in-law Maureen, father-in-law Bernard, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, relatives, friends and neighbours.
Mary reposed in St Dominic's Church, Kenagh on Sunday, August 24 and following her Funeral Mass on Monday she was laid to rest in Carrickedmond cemetery.
