    My sincerest sympathies are with the whole Cahill family! Mary will always be carried in my heart. She was my special angel here on earth and will continue to be my angel in heaven. She has a lot of dear friends to watch over. She and I spent MANY layovers in Shannon and would attend mass together at St. Augustine’s Catholic Church in Limerick. I will forever remember those special moments together. I will always remember the way Mary would look at the beauty of the flowers and nature around her. She would always remark about the blessings God had given to us! I love you, Mary. I will NEVER forget you!

    My deepest condolences to Mary’s Family. I am truly saddened as I’ve know her through flying together for many years. Mary with her beautiful smile was always the sweetest and kindest person who took the time to care and catch up even if years had passed. I always looked forward to flying with her. She has left an indelible footprint in our lives. She will be sorely missed. May you Rest In Peace Mary and soar with your beautiful wings.

    May the road rise up to meet you.
    May the wind be always at your back.
    May the sun shine warm upon your face;
    the rains fall soft upon your fields
    and until we meet again,
    May God hold you in the palm of his hand.

    Mary, you were one of a kind and I’m fortunate to have known you. Flying with you was always a joy. My condolences to the Cahill family. Rest In Peace my friend. ☘️

    My thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathies are with the Cahill family…Mary was cherished by all who knew her, and very dearly loved by her airline family.

    I didn’t have the opportunity to travel with Mary to Ireland as I know she did so often. There is a mass intention for Mary being held there tomorrow February 1 at 11:00 am local time, 6am EST and can be accessed live from their website http://www.augustinianslimerick.com, this link I received from Jackie Gilroy and Maureen Vinci. I would assume you can set up future service through their website and I know they would love to be in contact with Mary’s family. With love and sincere sympathy- Liz Davino
