    Dear Brendan and the Tobin Family – I am deeply sorry to learn of Ellen’s passing. Surely, she was welcomed into Heaven, as a new member of the Communion of Saints. May your family, friends and loving memories comfort you, as you adjust to the separation from Ellen, whom you dearly love. Ar dheis De go Raibh a Anam. Sincere Sympathy
