Nellie Molloy, who passed away at the age of 95, resided at the Trust for 87 years. She was the youngest of six children and spent 27 dedicated years as a weaver with the Greenmount Linen Co. in Harold’s Cross. However, Nellie made the selfless decision to leave her job to care for her ailing mother. In the 1940s, she even turned down a marriage proposal from a disappointed suitor from Kilkenny due to her commitment to her mother.
