On Friday afternoon, we will be hosting a private, quiet memorial service for Caitlin in an extremely tiny chapel at the cemetery we have chosen. This will necessarily be a small gathering for our American family and her close friends. At the same time, in Wexford, Ireland, her Irish family will be attending a mass that honors her life.
We will be hosting a much larger memorial service and celebration of Caitlin’s life in 2017, during finer weather, for everyone who loved her and was touched by her life. We would be so grateful if you all would join us then! In the coming months, we will decide on a date and I will be sure to post it here.
