Tributes paid to ‘one of a kind’ Kathleen Reynolds Reporter: '); '); Kathleen Reynolds, wife of the late Taoiseach Albert Reynolds, was quite simply one of a kind. A devoted wife, loving and committed mother, she oozed gentility throughout her 88 gloriously fulfilled years. The mother of seven was remembered this week as someone who held a deep and resolute faith wherever she went. Fr Brian D’Arcy alluded to those deep seated virtues at Mrs Reynolds’ Funeral Mass at the Church of Sacred Heart, Donnybrook last week. He said Kathleen’s innately pious nature played a key, underlying role in the successful formulation of the Northern Ireland Peace Process.
