She was 97 and had lived at Jacaranda Trace in Venice, Florida, after moving from North Homeland. Born in Baltimore and raised on Wildwood Parkway and in Charles Village, she was the daughter of Marian L. Mulvey and M. Bernard Mulvey, who was born in County Waterford, Ireland. Her father was a salesman in the cement industry. 'My mother was very proud of her Irish heritage and loved that her daughter also became an Irish citizen,' said her daughter, Marian Nash. She attended St. Bernardine School, graduated from Seton High School in 1945, and played violin in the school orchestra. She earned a degree from Notre Dame of Maryland University and taught at Curtis Bay Elementary School. She met her future husband, Dr. John F.

'Her candied sweet potatoes were legendary,' said her daughter. 'She made a standing rib roast that was special. She set a beautiful table.'

Maine public safety dog dies in state vehicle that 'unexpectedly' stopped running
May 29—The state's "first official comfort dog" died Wednesday while inside a vehicle that "unexpectedly" stopped running. Baxter, a 3-year-old chocolate Labrador retriever, was found dead inside a state vehicle at the Bangor Regional Communications Center around 2 p.m. The vehicle, which he was regularly transported in, stopped running and the air conditioning turned off, the Department of Public Safety said in a statement Thursday. The agency is conducting an inspection to determine why and how the vehicle malfunctioned. A spokesperson did not respond Thursday to questions about how long the dog was left inside the vehicle and what type of vehicle he was in. Baxter was brought on to the Maine Bureau of Emergency Communications in 2022 to "help improve the mood and well-being of first-line responders in Maine's three emergency communication centers" in Augusta, Bangor and Houlton, the Department of Public Safety said. He was trained through the New Hampshire-based nonprofit Hero Pups, which pairs dogs with first responders and veterans. Since then, he has appeared at several conferences and spent time with dispatchers at the communications center, the Department of Public Safety said in social media posts.

Ryanair's Michael O'Leary lands historic €100m bonus
Ryanair chief executive Michael O'Leary has earned a bonus worth more than €100m (£84m) after the discount carrier's shares cleared a key performance target. The Irishman qualified for the mammoth payout on Thursday after Ryanair stock traded above the specified level of €21 for a 28th straight day, closing at €23.74. Mr O'Leary now stands to receive 10m shares for €11.12 apiece, or €111.2m in total. Based on Thursday's closing price, the stock would be worth €237m, bagging a paper profit of €126m. The Irishman is set for one of the biggest paydays in European corporate history despite Ryanair reporting a 16pc drop in annual profit in an earnings update last week. Mr O'Leary, a Manchester City fan, said at the time that the bonus was justified in light of the long-term performance of the airline, comparing it with the rewards on offer in the sporting world. He told analysts: 'I think we're delivering exceptional value for Ryanair shareholders in an era when Premiership footballers or the managers are getting paid €20m to €25m a year. 'I think Ryanair shareholders are getting a particular value out of our share options – both mine and the rest of the management team.' This embedded content is not available in your region. Mr O'Leary did not indicate how he might spend the money and has slimmed down the racehorse training operation into which he poured millions earlier in his career, winning three Grand Nationals and the Cheltenham Gold Cup in the process. The long-term incentive scheme was first set out in 2019 with an expiration date of 2024 as part of a deal that saw the Ryanair chief sign a new contract while accepting cuts to his salary and annual bonus. However, Covid intervened the following year, grounding flights, plunging airlines into the red and sending share prices tumbling, with Ryanair dropping to €8. Shareholders subsequently backed an extension to the expiry date. The carrier expanded rapidly in the wake of the pandemic, though struggled last summer after a row with online travel agents saw it deprived of some bookings. It was also unable to tap increasing demand for all-inclusive package breaks that boosted rivals easyJet, TUI and Jet2, having closed down its own holidays division some years ago. Regardless, Ryanair continues to rank as Europe's biggest airline by passenger numbers. Mr O'Leary is credited with transforming the Irish carrier from a regional also-ran into a goliath. He joined as finance chief in 1988 before becoming chief executive in 1994, importing a low-cost, no-frills business model copied from US discount giant Southwest Airlines. In order to receive the bonus award – to be paid in share options – Mr O'Leary must stay at Ryanair until July 2028, by which time he will be aged 67 and have been chief executive for almost 35 years. Ryanair did not respond to calls. It previously indicated earlier that it did not plan to comment on its chief executive's windfall since the share options would not vest for another three years.
