Sincere thanks to all who attended the cemetery mass in Granlahan Cemetery on Monday evening last. The Lord provided us with a beautiful evening and a great crowd attended. This was a lovely way to remember our loved ones who have gone before us and to pray for them. Our gratitude also to all who took part in the liturgy itself, those who helped in any way. The occasion was also a very enjoyable one.
