Dear Sisters & Brothers,

 

It is with deep sorrow that I inform you of the death of our Hibernian sister, Betty T. Murphy.

Betty was a beloved member of the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians Division #19 in Gerritsen Beach, Brooklyn and served in several offices within her Division.  She was also an active member of the LAOH Kings County and always assisted with various events especially the Division #19 and County Card parties.  Betty was a longtime parishioner of Resurrection Church and active in many church activities.  She was also a member of the VFW in Gerritsen Beach as well as the Columbus Council #126 Columbiettes.

Betty will be remembered as a wife, mother and grandmother but most importantly a “Catholic woman of deep faith”. A woman who trusted in God, a women who lived the Hibernian motto of Friendship, Unity, and Christian Charity and proud of her Irish heritage, Betty will be greatly missed by the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians. Please stop and say one Hail Mary for our departed sister, may she rest in peace.
