He was a wonderful man to my sister and I. We were Belle's youngest sisters Frances & Lee. They were both so good to us, in particular Kerry was so supportive of everything we did. Interested in what we were doing. I was so sad I couldn't come home but I loved watching the live stream. Thank you for this service you provided. You also did my mother in 1987 and my big sister Bella who passed before Kerry. In Irish slán a dheartháir daor. Go n-éirí leat i ngrá Lee xxx

Very sad to hear of Mr Rooneys passing, was very lucky to spend last Christmas lunch with him and his family.
