My thoughts and prayers are with you. Alma was a very special loving person.
I enjoyed working with Alma for many years. She was a joy.
Tim and Family, I am so sorry to hear of your Mother’s passing. I will be thinking of you during this difficult time.
Tim,
Sincere sympathies on the passing of your mother, my good friend Alma. We had many good times together, both here in Ireland and in NC. Thinking of you all at this sad time. I will have Irish prayers said for her in Kilkenny. She did like Irish prayers. Maureen
Tim, Our love and sympathy to you in the passing of your mother. She was a sweet lady. May God be with you and your family.
Tim, I wish to extend my sympathies to you and your family on the loss of your Mother. I met your Mother when Maureen and I visited her. Alma was a very giving person with a kind heart.

I want to express my sympathy to the family during this time of loss and sadness.
T.G.
Sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with your family.
Alma was a lovely, caring and intelligent person. I always enjoyed her company. I, too, love Ireland, and we discussed being there many times. She always gave a lot to her family and friends.
Tim and family, I was saddened to hear of Aunt Alma’s passing. We always traded Christmas cards until the last few years. She was such a card. Probably had something to do with being my Dad’s sister!! I also didn’t know uncle Tim had passed away. I didn’t know anyone even knew where he was. It is a shame that they’re all gone now. I’d like to think that Alma and the boys are all together now, stirring up trouble and having a great time in the afterlife! We have a couple of paintings your Mom did, they will be more cherished than ever now. Our deepest sympathies, and love, Cousin Paul and wife Eileen.
How it saddens me to learn of Alma’s passing. I know she will be missed by so many of us and especially her family that she loved so very much! May I see her again one day, in heaven.
