Nora helped with the church as much as she could.  She was very devout.  She would walk there.  She would run Bridge at the church and raise money for the Oblates and send it down to Texas to Father Cliff (her son).  

She had a terrible cough before she died.

Donna & Dale called her "Nanny"

* Francis was "Aunt Fanny" to Beatrice.  She came to America.  Bridie came to America also, but she didn't like it and went back. 

When Nora McGarry was born in 1887, her father, Dennis McGarry, was 43 and her mother, Nora Dyer, was 31. She married Alfred Valentine Reuben Blackburn on 19 June 1909. They were the parents of at least 2 sons and 1 daughter. She immigrated to United States in 1906 and lived in New Rochelle, Westchester, New York, United States in 1915 and Westchester, New York, United States in 1920. (familysearch.org)
