Cancer care advocate Tracey Brennan was a ‘ray of light’ in the lives of everyone who knew her, her funeral in Co Roscommon has heard. Politicians, fellow cancer campaigners, family and friends gathered at St Patrick’s Church in Cloverhill on Monday to celebrate the life of Ms Brennan. Mr Brennan later told mourners his wife fought her battle “with bravery, positivity and with a smile on her face. She was too positive to be doubtful, too determined to be defeated and never gave up.”Fr Raymond Browne described Ms Brennan as a “fighter” for fellow cancer patients. She was excited about her son Evan competing in the Community Games when I spoke to her for the last time last Monday.
