We remember the good times big sis. The visits to Genazzano, the many nights you would baby sit the girls, the long, meaningful and in depth phone chats. You were a gifted academic. But it is now time to let the angels take you for a ride in the sky. The pearly gates await you.
Rest easy big sis.Sister to Chris, sister in law to Trish and Kathleen, auntie to Sara & Cam, Amanda & Justin, great auntie to Emma

My sincere sympathy to all the Lenehan family. Bernadette was such a beautiful person to visit at Mercy who made me feel so special and welcome. Marianne and I have many memories of when she would come to tutor and help her with her Year 12 Maths. She was a blessing to us. Rest peacefully and happily Bernadette with your Lord.
