Julianne Durkin O'Brien was an inspirational young woman. A caring mother to Conor and Cameron, and a loving wife to husband Phil.

Tragically, Julianne passed away suddenly in her sleep on Aug 1st 2014, she was only 32.

Julianne's son Conor, suffers from a condition called Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1, and yet despite his condition Conor lives life to the full!

Julianne was devoted to her two sons and family, sadly she was taken away from them all far too soon.

Julianne's greatest wish would be for Conor to be able to communicate more effectively and for him to have a communication aid/voice machine to help him achieve this.

Julianne didn't really like flowers, so instead the family would really appreciate donations. All donations will go towards the purchase of the voice machine for Conor.

Rest In Paradise Julianne Durkin O'Brien xxxxx

A beautiful butterfly appeared at the church service, hovered over Julianne and her family for a bit, then flew over everyone else, landed on someone's head before flying off out of the church door.
