Nuala Dalton Obituary

Nuala M. Dalton, with family around her and Irish Music in the background, passed away peacefully at her home in the Gables of Winchester, on October 17, 2017. Nuala was born on Christmas Eve in 1927 in Dungarvan, County Waterford, Ireland and came to America in 1959. She was an accomplished executive assistant and held a number of positions at Harvard University. She was so proud to become a US Citizen in 1966. Nuala was a strong willed, independent woman who enjoyed her many friends, golfing, traveling, reading, good times and the company of her family. She is survived by her sisters, Bernadette Morris and Phyllis Kingston, both of Ireland as well the late Terence Dalton, Nancy Ryan and Eileen Lannen. At Nualas request there will be no services here locally, but know that Nuala will be lovingly welcomed home in Ireland by her Sisters and her many nieces and nephews where they will celebrate her life with a funeral Mass at St, Marys Parish and she will be laid to rest with the other members of her family that went before her.

On the 17th December 1945 Nuala played for Waterford against Antrim in the All Ireland Camoige final at Cappoquin Co. Waterford. She was a substitute who played at full back. To morrow 6th August 2023, Waterford are back in an All Ireland final in Camoige for the first time since. An emotional day for our family. Well done Nuala, gone from us but well remembered. Killian .. your loving nephew!! Much love.

Today is St. Patrick's Day, 2019 and It still seems strange not sending good wishes to my longtime friend, Nuala. She was and always will be in my thoughts despite the many miles between us.
