One of Ireland’s oldest women passes away at the age of 104
Mary, who passed away on Good Friday at Mallow General Hospital, was a mother of five and featured in a documentary film, The Centenarian Bounty, last year, telling the stories of the last Irish people alive who were born before 1916. She had been the oldest of the interviewees for the documentary.
At the time of recording, she was still living at home with her daughter Geraldine and her family, commenting on how she had little or no difficulty going up and down the stairs 10 times a day.
