Felt at ease with straight away

We were all very sorry to hear of Denise's illness and her passing. We only had the pleasure of Denise's company on one occasion. It was during the visit of the Sharkey clan to Donegal and I met them all when they visited my mothers house. It was great to meet our cousins that we had heard about from my mother (Kathleen). Of course we had met Bridget and Charlie many times, as they were and are frequent visitors to Donegal. They visited my mothers house in Carrickfinn one evening and we spent the evening talking and laughing. I remember Denise as a bright and bubbly person and was the kind of person whose company you felt at ease with straight away. The following evening we spend a lovely night at the local pub in Mullaghduff. If I remember rightly a few nice creamy pints of Guinness and maybe even the odd half of Irish whiskey were enjoyed!
