Obituary for Our Dear Friend Rose Ball
Obituary for Our Dear Friend Rose Ball

 

Rose was one of life’s treasures.  She was devoted to her husband, Stephen, and her three sons.  She also had a wonderful capacity for friendship.  Her loyalty, kindness and generosity was amazing.  

Nothing was too much trouble for her.  Everything was undertaken with a cheerful smile and a willing heart.
Rose loved playing bridge in Clontarf, and insisted that her club membership fee would be renewed.  

She planned to play on line and then return to face to face bridge at a later stage. It is lovely to know that she was so happy playing in the Club. 

Many thanks for your lovely messages.  

They are much appreciated by the family and have helped them greatly.

10th May 2022

It is with great sadness that we heard of the death of Blathnaid. We offer our condolences to her beloved family Tony, Caitriona, Brian, Aoife, Donal granddaughter Ellie and extended family and many friends.

Blathnaid was a long standing member of Clontarf Bridge Club where she was treasurer up to recently.  She was an excellent bridge teacher and many our members were taught by Blathnaid. Members have contacted us with their tributes to Blathnaid saying what a kind lovely person "a great lady" she was.

Blathnaid attended our committee meetings up to recently, she will be missed for her attention to detail and her support and contributions to the running of the club.

She was a wonderful bridge player and won many competitions and trophies 

Light of Heaven to you Blathnaid and we will never forget your kindness.

Rest in Peace
