It is with great sadness that I announce the death of my dear friend and sister Marie Linehan, late of County Cork, Ireland and Vancouver, Canada.
Marie was born in Cork City on 31st October 1943, but lived for more than 50 years in Canada, where she died in Vancouver on 17th January 2022 after a long and bravely borne illness. She was 78 years old.
Marie was pre-deceased by her beloved parents Frank and Margaret (Babs) Linehan and her brother Donal. She is survived by her sister Anne and a large extended family of cousins and friends, with whom she had a lifelong, loving unbroken bond. Ireland always held a special place in her heart, and she is, and will be, deeply missed and held in our hearts.
Marie’s funeral service is being held on Friday 4th February 2022 at 1:30pm at St. Augustine’s Church, 2028 West 7th Avenue, Vancouver BC. All are welcome.
Donations in her memory can be made to Covenant House, Vancouver BC, at covenanthousebc.org.
