In her 92nd year, Elizabeth O'Byrne (née McDonald) passed away today (Thursday).

Formerly of The Crescent, Elizabeth moved to Bearna in subsequent years, settling across the road from the Church, which was actually the site of the old schoolhouse.

We extend our sincere sympathies to her children George, Harry, Anne, Elizabeth, Sharon, Joseph, John, Christine, Mary, and Angela.
