REMEMBRANCE MASS

“They whom we love and lose are no longer where they were before, they are wherever we are”.

The families and friends of those members of the Blackrock College extended community that passed away in the last twelve months were comforted by our Remembrance Mass last Wednesday evening. It was a truly moving liturgy, deeply appreciated by those bereaved.

“The tomb of the dead is in the heart of the living”

I thank on behalf of the College:
Union President Shane Murphy (Class of 1981) and his wife Hilary,
Fr Tom Nash and the Concelebrating Community, Organist William Woods, Cantor Fr Marino Nguekam, CSSp., my colleagues Mr Tom Ryan, Mr Sean Goan, Ms McMahon, Mr Sean Dunne, Mr Herlihy, Mr Rogan, Mr Myles Ryan and the Boarders – Cantors Hugh Eggleston, Elan Richardson, Rory Patterson and Matthew Long; Servers Colm O’Flaherty, Donal O Cribin, Declan Kelly, Michael Launders and Ross O’Toole – for their contribution to such an eloquent expression of our faith.

“WE DO NOT GRIEVE AS THOSE WHO HAVE NO HOPE”
