Kathleen (92) will be missed by all who knew her

-

THE SAD passing of Wexford native Kathleen Walsh occurred recently in London.

Kathleen (92) was a member of the London Wexford Associatio­n, an organisati­on that her late husband Jack Walsh was a founder member of in 1954. She was always happy, full of life and character, and loved to visit and reminisce about her home town of

Wexford.

She was the mother of six children: Jim, Mary,

Elsie, John, Robert and Kathleen.

She had ten grandchild­ren, eight great-grandchild­ren, and also had two sisters Mary and Doreen.

Everyone who knew Kathleen would have their own story to tell about her as she left an imprint on the hearts of everyone she met, even if it was just a first meeting.

She always took the lead role in booking holidays to surprise her family, whom she loved and cherished.

When she decided to do something, she would always see it through.

In 2015, Kathleen was made an Honorary President of the London Wexford Associatio­n. She insisted that her award be placed in pride of place back in the county hall in Wexford for everyone to know the history of the associatio­n and the involvemen­t of the Walsh family.

Kathleen will be sorely missed by her family and friends, all at the London Wexford Associatio­n, and all who had the privilege of knowing her.
