After a long fight with Lewy Body Dementia, she is survived by her children, Paul, Fin and Caragh and her seven grandchildren. She will always remain a part of their lives.
Tess was a strong and courageous mother of three who always put family first. Born and raised in Tramore Ireland, she loved adventure and travelling. She enjoyed raising her family while living in Greece, Pakistan and Canada, and always took delight in exploring the world around her and treasured hiking to the top of wherever she was.
Dedicated to always being a better person, Tess returned to school to achieve a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology. She loved to help people and devoted much of her time to helping those with drug and alcohol addiction.
Tess will be sorely missed, but, because of her, our world has been a much better place.
A funeral mass will be held at St. Anthony’s Parish, 2347 Inglewood Avenue on Saturday, February 18th at 11:00 am.
Special thanks and gratitude to her wonderful long-time caregiver, Evelyn, and to all the incredibly kind and compassionate staff at the Inglewood Care Center.
If friends so desire, in lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Lewy Body Society.
Arrangements under the direction of Hollyburn Funeral Home, West Vancouver, BC.
