Growing up, I knew Aunty Vita to be a happy, loving, kind, gregarious and strong person. She loved her family and relatives a lot. She was always an animator and maintained that personality until the end. God's word said; unless a grain dies it remains just a grain, but when it dies it produces many others and yield a rich harvest. That was her life. Rest In Peace.

May tender memories soften your grief, and fond recollections bring you relief.  Our deepest sympathy to the O'Brien family from the Murray Family. May her soul rest in peace.

I am so grateful for the privilege to have met this wonderful woman.
What a legacy she has left!!
love and sympathy to all her remaining family and friends.

Sympathy prayer

Dear Lord, please comfort those in grief,
Love them, lift them, give relief
For loss they’ve suffered, sadness felt;
Make this sorrow slowly melt.

Lord, let happy memories ease,
Creating peace like a gentle breeze,
And as you help them make it through.
Draw them closer, Lord, to you.

Sincere condolences on your loss.

Hi Pauline and the O'Brien Family, please accept the Mansfield-Gomes deepest sympathy on your lost. May she rest in Peace!

To those that knew her best....I think mummy will tell us to not only celebrate her life and cherish her memory but also to go on everyday remembering her words "it is what it is."She would not want us to live in sorrow, but live everyday with her memory by our sides, and strive to live our lives to the fullest.
I love you mummy! Rest in Peace.

Vita Johanna O'Brien was a beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, aunt,great aunt, cousin and friend to many. She was loved by everyone that knew her. If you spent one minute with her, you had to laugh at some point. The unforgettable looks, funny phrases, quirky ways....she was truly one of a kind and will be missed so much. RIP Mummy.

Being absent from the body, she is now in the presence of the Lord.I will always remember her words to us when we were kids. She would say "I'm begging God to keep me until you all pass the worse".Also "you all must stay together, in unity there is strength".God and her ten children complied. We enjoyed, loved respected and pampered her to the end.RIP Mummy.

WE GIVE THEM back to you, dear Lord, who gave them to us.
Yet as you do not lose them in giving, so we have not lost them by their return.
Not as the world gives do you give, O Lover of souls. What you gave you do not take away; for what is ours is ours always, if we are yours. And life is eternal, and love is immortal, and death is only an horizon, and an horizon is nothing save the limit of

In memory of Vita O'Brien,you were so much like a mother to me,Your smiles can brighten any moment,Your love will stay with me forever you have touch my life in precious ways.the values you've taught,the care you've given,and the wonderful love you've shown have enriched my life in more ways than I can count. RIP MUM.

Psalm 34:18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those whose spirits are crushed"."Lamentations 3:22-26; 31-32
For the Lord does not abandon anyone forever.Though he brings grief,he also shows compassion according to the greatness of his unfailing love."

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.
~ John 14:1-4

TO MY AUNT,
MYSELF AND FAMILY WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU.
They say there is a reason
They say that time will heal
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel.
For no one knows the heartache
that lies behind our smiles,
No one knows how many times
we have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something
so there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of
