Messages of condolence

From Mum's friend Josie with whom she shared some fun times.

Ms Fran Swann

So Sorry Fran, Darien, and the extended O’ Brien family on the loss of Betty. Mam (Lily) had lovely memories of their childhood and often spoke about the ‘good old days’. I’m grateful for the visits and that they kept up the contact throughout the years, ensuring we got to know ye too. Please know we are thinking of you all at this difficult time, take care and stay in touch. Carmel, Mike & Family

In rememberance of my mum, dad, daughter and mother-in-law. Sleep peacefully

Mrs Gilly OBrien

Mum loved children. Just weeks before she died, she fell over in the street retrieving a ball from under a car because she was worried a child might try to get it. She was a wonderfully loving grandmother, so a charity linked to babies seemed appropriate.

Ms Fran Swann

For our daughter Jade, lost but never forgotten.

Mr Darien O'Brien

My last memory of Betty was a drive out to the countryside with my sister Veronica to collect my new puppy one Sunday afternoon about 4 years ago. We had a super day out with a nice lunch on the way back - she would have taken Mungo home only she said Bella might object! Sincere condolences to her family. She was a lovely lady and will be so missed.

Ms Joanna McGrath

I am thinking of you all and sending my condolences. Betty always made me feel welcome with her kindness and warmth, she will be missed by many xx
