Margaret Foley Obituary

Margaret T. Foley nee Rooney, passed away peacefully on October 31, 2024. Born in Carra, Bonniconlon, Ireland.  Daughter of the late Michael Mulrooney and Maria Gallagher.  Beloved wife of John T. Foley, before his death on July 21, 2011.  She is survived by many nieces and nephews in Ireland, England and USA. 

Margaret was a housekeeper for priests for 25 years.  In her spare time she made the altar boys surplices. She made purificators and finger towels to help the mission at Immaculate Conception Church at 314 Street, San Antonia, Texas.  Margaret collected 26 sets of vestments and did some repairs where needed.  Margaret served mass in Latin for a sick priest at Villa St. Joseph in Darby, PA. She felt it  was an honor and privilege to serve God's holy priests.
