It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Carmel Finnerty (née Burns), “Inisfree”, Grange, Corrandulla, Galway, and formerly of Maugherow, Co. Sligo. Carmel departed this life peacefully at Galway Hospice, surrounded by her loving family, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, gentleness, and devotion that will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
