‘Dear Carl and Carson family
Hereby I share with you my deepest condolences and know that me and my family will have Niamh in our prayres.
‘I’m so sorry to hear this. You’ll all be in my thoughts and prayers.’
‘Carl, I am very sorry to hear of the death of your lovely wife, Niamh. May she rest in peace. I know a little bit of how you must feel, as my own wife Angela passed away on New Year’s Day. Please tell your sons Cathal, Gavin, and Conor that I am very sorry for their loss. I will send a mass card to you via Maureen. Yours sincerely, Peter, Annette, Sinead, and Paula Aungier.’
‘Carl, our deepest sympathy to you and the boys, you are all in our prayers.
Pauline and John O’Donnell (Jordan) Leixlip, Ireland. .’
‘Carl, Gavin and family.. so sad to hear about Niamh.. she and all of you will be in our prayers.. Tony & Noel’
‘We are all so sad to hear of your loss. Our prayers and thoughts are with you all and a mass will be held in Scotland .’
‘My sincere condolences to you all. I have great memories of when Orla and myself were in college and she’d bring me to Ashbourne (usually to get fed) at weekends. Niamh was the funny smart stylish person you’d want to be like! Rest in peace Niamh’
‘Niamh was a very special lady. We cared deeply for her. She had a generous heart and raised sons who reflected her influences. We will miss the times we would see her at special get-togethers in the flyfishing community. I pray that God wraps his arms around her sweet family as they grieve their loss. She will be sorely missed.’
‘My heart goes out to my dear Gavin, his brothers, his Dad and all his family experiencing the loss of his dearly beloved Mom. My sympathy also goes to her parents as no parent ever wants to experience the loss of their child. I know you’re your Mom is proud of you Gavin, and I can attest to her as an incredible Mother who raised such an awesome son. You have been so good to my Olivia and you certainly have been taught well by your Mother how to treat a woman. Olivia expressed to me how much she loved your Mom and what an awesome a person she thought she was- she so wanted me to meet her one day and I’m so sorry that I didn’t have the opportunity. Again, I am so sorry for your loss. There is no grief like the grief of losing your Mother but it will get better over time. God bless you and your family and we (myself, my family and my precious Olivia) will keep all of you in our prayers.
Sincerely and with love and sorrow,
Terri Barrow’
‘I just found out tonight, I am so sorry to hear this news. I will keep your family in my prayers.
