MRS. KATHLEEN GOGARTY

Sincere sympathy is extended to the family of Mrs. Kathleen Gogarty from Alverno Heights who died on Sunday 22nd March last.

Wife of the late Patsy and mother of the late Margaret, she was a devoted mother to her family and well known in the community, a quiet and gentle woman.

She will be sadly missed by her loving family, Patrick, Matt, Alice, Tommy, Michael & Catherine, grandchild­ren, great grandchild­ren, extended family and friends.

Funeral Mass was celebrated in the Sacred Heart Church Laytown with burial afterwards in the Old Cemetery Duleek.

May the lovely gentle soul of Kathleen rest in peace.
