1st Anniversary Mass for the late Annie Mulholland
May her gentle soul rest in peace.

The Angels sang Amazing Grace;
Our Lord came down
And touched your face.
He held your hand and whispered low,
Come with me, it's time to go.
The gates of Heaven opened wide
The Angels lined up, side by side,
For a special guest was on her way
The day you took our Mum away.

Annie’s 1st Anniversary Mass will be celebrated on Sunday 7th June at 10.00am in Mary Queen of Peace Church, Glenravel.
