It is with deep sadness that we share the peaceful passing of Ann O’Mara, of Shannon Lawn, North Circular Road, and formerly of Caherdavin Cross, Limerick. Surrounded by her loving family, Ann passed away on Sunday, 13th April 2025, under the kind and compassionate care of Milford Care Centre.
A Life of Passion and Service
Ann lived a life filled with purpose, energy, and love. A dedicated former member of Tusla, Limerick, and a passionate athletics coach with Emerald A.C., she made a lasting difference in the lives of countless children, young people, and athletes. Her commitment to both her professional and sporting communities reflected her deep sense of care and her unwavering spirit.
Treasured by Her Family
Ann’s passing is most deeply felt by her beloved husband, Frank O’Donoghue, and their cherished sons, Eoin and Niall. She welcomed into her heart Eoin’s partner, Wiktoria, and Niall’s partner, Tiarna, and was so proud of the strong bonds she nurtured within her family.
She will be forever remembered by her twin sister Helen, her brothers Frank and Brendan, her brother-in-law Hugh, and her sisters-in-law Alison, Patty, and Sarah. Her loving aunts Ita and Helen, along with her nieces, nephews, and extended family circle, mourn the loss of a kind and loving presence.
A Woman Who Touched Many Lives
Ann’s warmth and dedication extended far beyond her immediate family. She was admired and loved by her friends, neighbours, and a wide circle of colleagues who knew her not only for her professionalism and leadership, but for her generosity, sincerity, and joy. Her loss is felt deeply in all the communities she served and supported.
