Mother-of-four Tracey Crossan to be laid to rest following sad passing in Mexico last month

Tracey Crossan

The funeral of a Co Armagh mother-of-four who passed away in Mexico last month, while receiving treatment for cancer, will take place on Tuesday.

Tracey Crossan was diagnosed with a terminal cancer last July but battled bravely for more than 12 months.

A talented glass artist from Ballymoyer, she leaves behind her heartbroken husband Dominic and four children, Oonagh, Fiachra, Sarah and Fianna.

She was the beloved daughter of of Ann and the late Thomas, as well as sister to Shane, his partner Anne and their son Conor.

She is also sadly missed by her mother-in-law Ita, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters in law, her cousins, nieces, nephews and wider circle of family and friends.

Tracey’s remains were repatriated thanks to the help of the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust and the family have asked for family flowers only with any donations, if desired, to go towards the Trust.

Her wake is open to visitors between noon and 10pm on Sunday and Monday. Removal at 10am on Tuesday, September 17 for 11am requiem mass in St Malachy’s Church, Ballymoyer. Burial afterwards in the adjoining cemetery. House private on the morning of the funeral.

Please note: to visit the wake house there is a one way system in place entering the Whiterock Road from the Ballymoyer side.

Tracey’s battle spurred on a community who helped raised over £111,000 through various initiatives and a GoFundMe page.

May she Rest in Peace.
