Eithnee Dowd and indeed the whole family are good friends and neighbours of ours.Pre lockdown she called here daily and we had the banter and the craic.
A lovely woman and a stunner now and in her youth,she and her Carnaross family were raised well in tough times.
I have seen photographs of Eithne and her sister Nancy in their youth.If Eithne was an All StarI in thre good looks stakes -her son Tommy was several times in football -then Nancy was an All Moon.
Eithne ofter spoke emotionally of her sister's condition and how Alzheimers had blighted her life and of the excellent care she was receiving in Virginia Care Centre.
Eithne is a member of the large ,well reared and respected Cambell family from Carnaross and is herself a straight talking and well respected member of the Dunderry Parish and a Gael of renoun.
I know that the death of her beloved sister Nancy Tynan ,from Oldcastle is breaking her heart as indeed it is the rest of her siblings ,children ,grandchildren,in laws and many friends.
A more complete description of her death and funeral arrangements is at R.I.P MEATH .
In these Virus days she was buried today ,a day after her death in Oldcasstle.
Ar Dheis De go raibh a hANAM DILIS.
