In loving memory of a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, Georgina (Georgie) Mc Glone, whose 1st anniversary occurs on the 22nd August, 2026.

You can only have one mother,
patient, kind and true.
No other friend in all the world,
will be the same to you.
When other friends forsake you,
to mother you will return.
For all her loving kindness,
she asks nothing in return.
When we look upon her picture,
sweet memories we recall,
of a face so full of sunshine and a smile for one and all.
Sweet Jesus, take this message to our dear mother up above;
tell her how we miss her and give her all our love.

Gone from our home that smiling face,
the cheerful happy ways,
the heart that won so many friends,
in bygone happy days.
Lonely is the home without you,
life to us is not the same,
All the world would be like Heaven,
if we could have you back again.

St Padre Pio pray for her.

Deeply missed by her heartbroken daughters Helena, Martina, Gina and Shauneen, grandchildren, sisters, brother, extended family circle and friends.

Georgina's 1st anniversary mass will be on Friday 21st August, 2026 in the Holy Rosary Church Ballinascreen at 7:30pm. The mass can be viewed on the parish we**am.
