The death has occurred of Colum Doyle (Gawleys Gate, formerly Abington, PA, USA and Lurgan)

Doyle, (Gawleys Gate, formerly of Abington, PA, USA and Lurgan).

Colum, loving husband and best friend of Nicole for 27 years, and devoted father of Caelen and Siena. Dearly beloved son of the late John and Clare Doyle (Taghnevan). A loving brother to his many sisters and brothers, and a cherished uncle to all his nieces, nephews, and godchildren.

Colum is deeply loved and will be sadly missed by his wide circle of extended family and friends in the Philadelphia area, including his mother-in-law, father-in-law and his wife, grandmothers-in-law, sisters and brothers-in-law, aunts, uncles, and cousins. He will be especially missed by his “adopted daughter,” Abby, whom he helped to raise from birth.

Colum will repose at his home, 11 James Lodge, Gawleys Gate, BT67 0WJ, Thursday from 5.00pm to 8.00pm on both days, where family and friends are welcome to pay their respects.

Funeral from his home on Friday at 9.15am to St Paul’s Church, Lurgan, for Requiem Mass at 10.00am.

A private cremation will take place at a later date, after which his ashes will be brought by his family to the home he loved dearly, the United States.

Saints Padre Pio, St Jude Thaddeus and St Joseph, pray for him.

Deeply regretted by his loving family and the entire family circle.

A special mention to his lifelong friends who never lost touch despite the years and the distance, you know who you are, you meant everything to him.

Family flowers only, please. Donations in lieu, if desired, to PIPs, a charity close to his and his family’s hearts via mcalindenandmurtagh.com
