Members will be aware, Mary Jackman, who was twice elected to this House, died on Monday, 30 May. A proud Limerick woman, Mary was a teacher by profession spending her entire career at Presentation College. As a member of Limerick County Council, Mary was a dedicated public representative for almost 30 years. She gave three decades of service to the people of Limerick city and county. Not only was she the first female chair of Limerick County Council but she was also the first female Senator to represent Limerick. Mary was one of the longest serving public representatives in her local community before she retired in 2014. She served two terms in Seanad Éireann and was well known as a very warm, kind and engaging person who offered support and guidance to everybody she met. At this sad time my thoughts and the thoughts of Seanad Éireann are with her family, her husband Nicholas, daughter Nicola and her extended family and friends. We express our sympathies on their sad loss. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
