Special prayers were offered for all buried in Fennor, especially Christy Wall, Cork and formerly of Fennor, Michael Delaney, Inchorourke, Mary Feehan, Dublin and formerly of George's Park & Isabel Hogan, Graiguepaudeen.

Minister of the Eucharist was Denis Carroll. Reflection after Holy Communion was read by Grainne O'Dwyer.

A special word of thanks to the wonderful choir which included musicians and singers from Gortnahoe and Urlingford choirs, under the direction of Margaret Maher and Sean Hennessey.

The selection of hymns on the night were uplifting and added greatly to our special Mass, sincere thanks to all concerned.

Thanks to the Gortnahoe Community Hall for the use of the chairs and a thanks to Kathleen Cronin for the power point.

Families must be commended for putting beautiful flower bouquets on their family graves and it is also appreciated to see flowers throughout the year as a tribute to those who departed this life.

A special word of thanks to Jodie Moriarty for his care of the graveyard and also the dedicated Committee who help throughout the year and especially in the organising of the Mass and the collection.

A sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to the upkeep of the graveyard.
