## Resource

Sister Colette Hickey, Ireland’s oldest woman at 108, passed away leaving behind a legacy of compassion and courage. The visionary founder of Edel House, she created a life-saving emergency shelter for women and children in the 1970s, offering dignity, hope, and unwavering support. Cork’s Lord Mayor called her loss “huge,” praising her as a steady, non-judgmental force for those in crisis. A book of condolences is open at the Civic Offices until next week, and her funeral mass is tomorrow at St. Joseph’s Church. Her spirit, and the shelter she built, will forever echo through the lives she touched. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
