Funeral Notice

Formerly of Birr, Borris-in-Ossory, Laois

On July 02, Partrick’s life’s journey came to a peaceful end with his dearly beloved family by his side at the Galway Hospice. Beloved husband of Nuala and much-loved father of Ronan, Bláthnaid and Orla. Deeply mourned by his wife, son and daughters, by his sister Ann Hooton and his four grandchildren Thomas, Helen, Grace and Finn. Predeceased by his parents Paddy and Sadie. Rest in peace.

He will be fondly remembered and sadly missed by his daughter-in-law Rhoda and sons-in-law Paul Speedy and Conor Little and by the extended Bergin and Rohan families, wonderful neighbours and close friends.

Known for his work with AnCO/Fás and for his longstanding involvement with the Galway Sub-aqua Club, he will be dearly missed also by his many colleagues agus a chairde go léir.

Ar an 2 Iúil, d’imigh Pat Bergin ar shlí na fírinne go síochánta in Ospís na Gaillimhe, agus a chlann mhuintire dhíl timpeall air. Fear céile dílis le Nuala agus athair grámhar do Ronan, Bláthnaid agus Orla. Fágann sé ina dhiaidh a bhean chéile, a mhac agus a iníonacha, a dheirfiúr Ann Hooton, agus a cheathrar garpháistí, Thomas, Helen, Grace agus Finn, atá faoi bhrón mór ina dhiaidh. Imithe roimhe, tá a thuismitheoirí, Paddy agus Sadie. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a n-anamacha.

Aireoidh a iníon chéile Rhoda, a mhic chéile Paul Speedy agus Conor Little, muintir Bergin agus muintir Uí Rócháin, a chomharsana dílse agus a chairde uathu go mór é. Beidh cuimhní geala ag a chuid iar-chomhghleacaithe in AnCO/FÁS agus ag baill Chumann Tumadóireachta na Gaillimhe air, mar a chaith sé blianta fada ag obair leo agus ag tabhairt a chuid ama dóibh.
