Mary Basked In Her Domestic Duties And Delighted In Restoring The Furniture In 'Thistle House ', One Of The Area's Oldest And Consequential Houses, And She Proudly Embellished Her Home With Her Liking For Flower Arranging.

MARY O'connell, ' Thistle House'-Mount-pleasant, Dundalk who died peacefully at home on Aug 19th besieged by her loving family was a member of a widely known local family who was an inspiration to many in the manner that she lived her life and for the fortitude she exhibited in her battle against illness during the past three years.

Aged fifty five, Mary was one of eight kids of Theresa and the late Tony Donnelly who established a successful fruit distributing business, and the spouse of Dan O'connell, the widely known agricultural provider. Educated at Dulargy N.S. And Dun Lughaidh Secondary, Mary trained as a nurse in St. Vincent's Infirmary in Dublin, qualifying in 1977.

She finished her midwifery in Altnagelvin Infirmary in Derry in 1979. Mary then worked for a time as a midwife in one of the country's largest motherhood infirmaries, the Rotunda in Dublin before moving to St. James's Surgery where she was attached to the oncology unit.

A sense of adventure took Mary to Saudi Arabia where she worked for 2 years in a hospital in the capital, Jeddah. On her return from Saudi, Mary was prompted to help out in one of the family enterprises, 'The Sportsmans ' on the Newry Road that the family then owned.

She relished the change in occupation and helped in building up the business. It was during her time in 'The Sportsmans ' that Mary met her husband, Dan and the couple married in Sep, 1987.

Afterward Mary's first role was that of a mum and in helping Dan to establish the agricultural supply business that he opened in his family's home at 'Thistle Cross'. Over the years the business encountered many challenges such as the intrusion of the northwards link of the MI on their business, the 'Foot and Mouth ' outbreak, as well as steady fluctuations in the agricultural economy.but all though all these challenges Mary's unswerving religion sustained her folks.

Her love of music that was nurtured by Fr. Brendan Mcnally in the Youth Orchestra in Ravensdale, of which she was a member, was passed on to her youngsters, 2 of whom, John and Grace played at her funeral Mass.

Mary basked in her domestic commitments and delighted in restoring the furniture in 'Thistle House ', one of the area's oldest and historical houses, and she proudly embellished her home with her fondness for flower organizing. She also enjoyed her collaboration in a local book club.

Mary's robust religion which was evident for most of her life was a great comfort when her sickness struck. She became more actively concerned in local prayer groups, and the generous way in which she concentrated her energies to the concerns of others was an inspiration to many. With her partner, Dan she seemed to make a number of pilgrimages to Medjugorje, the last at Easter, and got great contentment from the time she spent there.They had a great Medjugorje accommodation.

To many, especially her loving family who are heartbroken at her passing, Mary's spirit will always endure, for they can feel her spirit as a consistent presence in their lives.She was the torch that lit many lives but that light will never be extinguished for she was a remarkable lady whose inheritance will long endure.

Mary is survived by her hubby, Dan, sons, Daniel, Harry, David and John, child, Grace, mum, Teresa, bro, Andrew, sisters, Kathleen Craig, Yvonne Donnelly, Teresa Mcardle, Irene Donnelly, and Jayne Graham, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, family and friends. She was predeceased by her pa, Tony in 1993 and bro, Brian in 2005.

Having reposed at home, Mary's remains were taken to St. Brigid's Church, Kilcurry where Requiem Mass was celebrated by Very Rev. C. Mcelwee, P.P. Faughart. Bishop Gerard Clifford presided and also in attendance were Extraordinarily Rev. P. Murphy, P.P. Ravensdale, Rev. F. Coll, Rev. B.. Buckley, and Rev. B. Mckenna, writes tagza.com.
