Noel Maher

On Wednesday, 6th May 2026, Noel completed his life’s journey, surrounded by his dearly loved family following the exceptional care he received by the wonderful medics, carers, and all who supported and comforted him during his short illness which he fought with grace and dignity. Predeceased by his beloved parents Bartholomew and Pauline and sister-in-law Clodagh.

Noel is deeply mourned by his devoted and heartbroken wife Aideen, daughter Jane and sons Alan and David. Sadly missed also by his son-in-law John, daughters-in-law Lesley and Ann-Marie, his precious grandchildren Lee, James, Oliver, Erica, Joshua and Sophia all of whom he was immensely proud of. Fondly remembered by his much loved siblings James, John, Marguerite and Norrie, sisters-in-law Ann, Angela and Mary, brothers-in-law Dermot, Donal, Larry and Rory, nephews and nieces, extended family, lovely friends and neighbours.

We hope he is reunited with his great friends

and old buddies for stories and laughter.

May his kind and gentle soul rest in peace
