With heavy heart, we regret to announce the sudden passing of Mary Marcella Cahill (nee Delaney), 86, on Sunday, January 18. The devoted wife and mother was born in New Westminster on Feb. 19, 1928. After graduating, Mary, a devoted Catholic, was a fiercely strong woman with lots of love to give and a sense of humour that would weather any storm. She lit up a room with her smile and laughter – it was while surrounded by her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren that she was the most content. Today, they are her legacy. Survived by brothers Danny (Carol) and Patrick, children: Christine (Maurice), Noreen (Fred), Patricia (Bob), Dennis (Vicky), Kathleen (Andy), her 10 grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren, she will never be forgotten. Mary is once again reunited with her beloved husband Desmond and youngest son James. Funeral Mass will be held Tuesday, January 27, 12 p.m., at Saint Peter’s Catholic Church, 330 Royal Avenue, New Westminster.
