~~~~~~~~

β€œI give you this, one thought to keep.
I am with you still, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am sunlight on the ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken on the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush....
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone-
I am with you still, in each new dawn.”

Dearly beloved Son, Brother , Uncle.

The family of the late Eamon Larkin would like to extend our sincere thanks and gratitude to all who supported us in our recent bereavement.

Sincere thanks to Fr. Seamus White who celebrated Eamon's Requiem Mass and Homily and to Ellen Maguire for the most beautiful music. Thank you to John Gallagher and Liam Campbell for arranging the flag and piper in honour of Eamon. Thank you also to Peadar O’Dorinin GAC for the Guard of Honour and Dromintee GAC for assisting the family during the wake.

Thank you to all those who supported the family throughout this time. To those who attended the wake, funeral, or sent messages of sympathy, your support is very much appreciated by the entire Larkin family circle.

A special thanks to all the staff on level 4, Daisy Hill Hospital, who provided loving care to Eamon over the last year. We express our most heartfelt gratitude to you.

While it is not possible to thank everyone individually, the Larkin family would take this opportunity to thank the parishioners of Dromintee. You turned out from every townland to remember Eamon, a son of the parish. Please accept this acknowledgement of our heartfelt gratitude to you all.

Finally, to M. McCreesh & Son, thank you for the dignified and professional way you assisted Eamon's family at this time of loss. It was much appreciated.

Eamon's loss is deeply felt by all his family and friends, and he will be eternally missed.

Eamon's Months Mind Mass will be celebrated on Sunday, 8th June, at 11 am in St Patrick's Chapel, Dromintee.

Ar dheis DΓ© go raibh a anam.
