So sorry to hear of the passing of Morna. She was known as ‘”the lady with the goats” until I was old enough to know her as Morna! What a wonderful women with a zest for life…..that was her secret to longevity!

Morna welcomed me into her home, her life and her family, generously and without reservation.
It’s an old Irish cliche but true in her case: “Her like will never be here again.”
