Marie Corey (RIP) – Acknowledgement

We, the family of the late Marie Corey (née Burns) wish to express our sincere and heartfelt thanks to everyone who offered their condolences, prayers and kindness following the loss of our deeply loved mother, grandmother, relative, and friend.

We are deeply grateful to all those who called at the house, attended the wake and funeral, sent Mass cards, sympathy cards, flowers, brought food or offered their condolences in any way. Your kindness and support during this difficult time have been a great source of comfort to our family.

We wish to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all those who cared for Marie throughout her later years and during her final illness. A special word of thanks to the Clogher Valley Care Team for their years of dedicated care, kindness and companionship, and to the staff of Craigavon Area Hospital, the Acute Care at Home Team and the local District Nursing team for the care and support they provided at various stages of her illness. We are especially grateful to the staff of Loane House, who cared for Marie in her final days with such compassion. The kindness shown to Marie and our family by all those involved in her care will never be forgotten.

We would also like to express our sincere appreciation to GP, Dr Damien O’Donnell and the staff of Coalisland Medical Centre, as well as O’Neill’s Pharmacy, for their advice, dedication and care for Marie over the years.

A special word of thanks to Newell Stores in Coalisland and Annagher Shop for their generous donations of sandwiches, soup and refreshments during the wake. We are truly grateful for their thoughtfulness and generosity, as well as the kindness of our neighbours, friends and the wider community.

We would like to sincerely thank Fr Eugene O’Neill for his spiritual guidance, kindness and for celebrating Marie’s beautiful Requiem Mass. We also extend our thanks to Ellie O’Neill for her beautiful singing, Nuala McCormack for her musical accompaniment, and Paddy Gates, the sacristan, for his assistance in making the Mass such a meaningful farewell.

Our heartfelt thanks go to Patsy Taggart Funeral Services, particularly Edel, for the exceptional care, compassion and professionalism shown to our family throughout the funeral arrangements. Her kindness, sensitivity and attention to every detail helped us through an incredibly difficult time and ensured Marie received the dignified and loving farewell she deserved. We also extend our sincere thanks to Gary Harte for preparing Marie’s final resting place.

As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, we trust that this acknowledgement will be accepted as a token of our sincere and heartfelt appreciation.

Marie’s Month’s Mind Mass will be celebrated on Monday 9th November 2026 at 7.30pm in St Mary and Joseph’s Church, Brackaville.

Saint Pio, pray for her.
