Roy Divin
Died 30th October 2025

We the family of Roy Divin, wish to express our heartfelt gratitude to all who sympathised with us following the death of our beloved son and brother.
Thank you to all who took the time to come to the wake or funeral. Giving us loving, caring and supportive words and helping us with arrangements through this difficult times.
To all who sent mass cards, flowers and gave generous donations to the Kevin Bell Trust, without whom we could not have possibly got Roy back home in the incredible manner in which they did.
Those who brought food to the house and were a constant presence throughout the wake, organising and directly to ensure the smooth reception of mourners to the house.
Also Father Ward for his beautiful funeral service and Erin Carlin for the lovely accompanying music.
Thank you to Sean and his colleagues from Carr Family Funeral Directors who provided an excellent service, delivered with care, compassion, empathy, and professionalism throughout.
We sincerely hope this acknowledgement will be accepted by all as a token of our sincere thanks and appreciation as it would be impossible to thank everyone individually for their support.
We send our deepest heartfelt gratitude to you all.

Rest in Peace Roy
aka “Gadget”

Thanks to the staff and residents (past and present) in white Oaks rehabilitation centre. You gave us so much comfort telling us how our daddy helped so many people over the years.

Thank you to the emergency service, mountain rescue and an Garda for all their help on the day.
