It was remiss of this blog not to mark the death of Peggy Rowan.
Peggy Rowan's funeral Mass was celebrated in Wolfhill parish church Co. Kildare on Thursday October 31.
Peggy spent over 60 years at the Dominican Priory in Newbridge where she cared for generations of Dominicans. Indeed, her genuine love and kindness protected and saved many Dominicans.
The chief celebrant at her funeral Mass was Jordan O'Brien, who preached a fine and eloquent sermon.
Her love and dedication to so many Dominicans over six generations was remarkable.
Many Dominicans might not have survived without her care and goodness. Certainly many would not have been the people they were without her daily kind attention.
