DIED RECENTLY
Freya Tobin – Newcastle
FREYA TOBIN – RIP
Our parish was once again plunged into sadness after the tragic circumstances of the death of Freya who recently made her Confirmation and graduated from Scoil Mhuire Newcastle.
Thanks to all the parish community, individuals and groups who came together to help in so many ways, especially in the prayer service, funeral, and helped with car parking, catering, and so many other ways.
Sincere sympathies to her family, friends, teachers and all who knew her, and sincere thanks to our emergency services and her friends who did all they could to help her last week.
May she rest in peace.
