This is a very special post which I would like to dedicate to a friend and classmate, Geraldine Hearn Fitzgerald. Gerri recently passed away and her sister, Carmelita, has given us this photo to post.

| Mary Butler Hearn with two of her three devoted daughters |
The picture was taken at the 1987 St Patrick's School Reunion. It is a beautiful picture of a mother and two of her daughters. St Patrick's Girls all!
The eldest daughter of Richard and Elizabeth Butler, Mary Frances Butler was born in 1914. She was educated at St Patrick's Convent School and, after High School, Mary completed a commercial course. In 1943 she married Raymond Hearn and they raised six children in a loving, caring home.
Mary's daughters also attended St Patrick's Convent and Mary and her daughters joined old friends and classmates at the 1987 St Patrick's School Reunion. The photo shows Mary between two of her devoted daughters, Gerri and Carmelita.
Mary passed away in 2005 and, sadly, Gerri passed away on 16 August 2014. May they both rest in the peace of their Lord whom they loved.
Many thanks, Carmelita, for sharing this lovely photo with us. I am certain that it will bring back very happy memories for so many St Patrick's girls who knew your dear mother and sister.
