Mary Kielty, mother of Late Late Show host Patrick Kielty, passed away at 84, leaving behind a legacy of resilience shaped by personal tragedy. Her husband, Jack, was murdered in 1988, which profoundly impacted her and their family. At her funeral, parish priest Robert Fleck and her son John reflected on her difficult life and the joy she found in raising her three sons and her involvement in the community. Despite facing significant hardships, she maintained her sense of humor, leaving a lasting impression on those around her and advocating for peace and reconciliation in Northern Ireland.
Mary Kielty, whose husband Jack was shot dead by the Ulster Freedom Fighters in 1988, lived a full life filled with humor, despite her losses.
Mary had a good sense of humour, her family have thrived on this gift, which even caught the attention of Pope Francis.
