Remembering the life of

Mary Cleary (nee Cosgrave)

Late of Beechmount X91F2W1 Tramore, Co. Waterford.

Family and friends remember Mary as a beautiful soul, deeply devoted to her loved ones. She shared 70 years of marriage with her late husband Tim, and their bond was one of unbreakable love, so much so that they couldn’t bear to be apart for long. Mary was an adored mother to Timothy, Siobhan, Mark, Fiona, Colleen, Lorcan, and Ronan, and her grandchildren—Mary, Owen, Eleanor, James, Callum, Cara, Ellie, Timothy, Grace, and Elizabeth—will forever cherish the warmth and kindness she brought into their lives.

Throughout her life, Mary was known for her generosity and gentle nature, always opening her heart and home to others. Her neighbours and friends in Tramore remember her as someone who offered unwavering support and genuine compassion to all she encountered. For those fortunate enough to know Mary, her presence was a true blessing, filling every moment with warmth, joy, and unwavering comfort.
