O’DONOGHUE, Bridget.

Patrick and family would like to thank all who were able to join us in saying farewell to Bridget and to everyone who called, sent cards, messages and flowers during this difficult time. Thank you also to all the doctors, nurses and staff at the General Hospital, the Oncology Department and Family Nursing and Home Care. Special mention to her wonderful doctors, Dr James Keir and Dr Rubin Soomal and his team, as well as Lorraine and her team at Hospice, and Claire and her team of district nurses for their kind support and loving care throughout. Thank you also to Canon Dominic Golding, as well as the choir and organist for making it such a beautiful send-off and a huge thank you to Mark and the team at Maillards, Funeral Directors for their gentle guidance and kindness. Finally, thank you to all those who have made donations to Hospice in Bridget’s memory.
