Annual Memorial Day Mass to be held in St Patrick’s Cemetery on May 26th at 10.30 am with Fr Martin Bourke acting as the celebrant this year. The Mass, will be an outdoor mass and will happen no matter the weather. A small number of seats are provided but please feel free to bring a folding chair to ensure you have a place to sit. Come prepared for the weather. St. Patrick Cemetery was founded by Irish immigrants in 1880 and undoubtedly many Irish Famine immigrants are buried there. The cemetery possibly may be the location that has the most genuine Irish ties in the Seattle area! KIRO’s My Northwest once called the cemetery “A Little patch of Ireland on the edge of the Kent Valley” – see https://mynorthwest.com/local/st-patrick-cemetery-kent/575529.
