Here is a selection of in memoriams published in recent weeks.

Sandra Roberta Austin

So many treasured memories of our time together. You will always be so very special in our hearts. Beloved husband Brian and family. God bless.

Mark James Curran

Two years gone. The gates of heaven opened, the name they said was yours, in God's care you rest above, but in my heart you rest with love. Love and miss you forever, mum.

John Michael Thomson

19 years on October 23. Years are passing but still you stay, as close to us as yesterday. Your memory is our keepsake, this we know is true, but we never wanted memories, we only wanted you. Loving wife Joan and family.

Graham Michael Toy

22 years. Our hearts still ache with sadness and many tears still flow, what it meant to lose you, no one will ever know, we hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain, to walk with us throughout our lives, until we meet again. All our love, God bless you, mum and dad, Jakki and Jess, Paul, Maria and Andrea.

John Christopher Geoghegan known as Seanie is remembered by loved ones

Seanie - five years without our lovely dad, who is remembered missed and loved every day by all who knew and loved him. Especially his six children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, and his brothers and sisters in Galway Eire. Talked about often and always with a smile because dad was full of love and great humour. Always in our hearts.
