Sending Love & Support to Katie, Colly, Hannah & Shane

Hi everyone,

If you are reading this then my time on this wonderful earth has come to an end. I want to say goodbye but really it’s just farewell until we meet again.

Thank you so much for the support you have given me and my family over the last few years. Thank you for the dinners, the care packages and the endless gifts. Thank you for coming to see me, for lifting me when I was feeling down, thank you for looking after my kids as if they were one of your own and thank you for just being there.

I have a favour to ask. Please continue to look after my babies & my family. This is going be a tough time for them so please keep showing up. Speak about me often, never stop saying my name or telling stories about our adventures.

Life is short, life is precious so enjoy every second of it. Book the holiday, buy the dress, order the fillet steak because at the end of it all nobody cares what’s in your bank account, all that counts is the wonderful memories made throughout life.

Look for robins, butterflies, rainbows, feathers- I’ll be here.

Love you to the moon & beyond, always & forever. Katie.

Hi everyone, our beautiful friend Katie O’Neill Collins has been bravely battling breast cancer since October 2021. Unfortunately, she has been told, that despite her putting up the strongest, most courageous fight, her time is limited.

In true Katie style, Katie is not thinking of herself, but her beautiful young family and has just started an extension on their home to ‘future proof it’ for her gorgeous kids Hannah (5) and Shane (3).

We would love to help them in any way we can and are asking people to donate a few euros, if they can, to go towards the cost of the extension and to show our support to Katie, Colly, Hannah and Shane.

Katie, you are a true warrior. We all LOVE you. Thanks for being the best daughter, sister, wife, mother, niece, cousin, aunt, daughter-in-law, sister-in-law and friend to us all.

Thank you to everyone for their support. On behalf of all of Katie’s friends X
