Eithne Burns

Condolences to the Miller and Burns family on the passing their Aunt Eithne. May she rest in peace.

My sincere condolence to Eithne's nieces, nephews and extended family. As a young child, I remember encountering this lovely, kind Lady behind the counter of the old Post Office in the square in Mountmellick, after my old Grandaunt, Louise Clarke ( Also from the Square) would dispatch me on unwilling errands on my part, across the road and she would say that " Miss Burns Will Look After You And I'll See Her Later".
Lovely old memories now. God+be good to Miss Burns, Amen.

Having known Eithne almost since coming back to the area in the seventies, she leaves a void that none can fill. She shared her chrisian feloship, unshakeable convictions and laterly her friendship. Her forefather came to help build the telescope at Birr so that we could better appreciate creation, I'm sure Eithne today is looking at the face of her creator and beginning that journey of appreciation
