Mass of the Resurrection for Margaret A. Cloney and Katherine B. Cloney, Larkspur sisters killed in an auto accident, will be celebrated at 10 a.m. tomorrow at St. Patrick’s Church, Larkspur.
The women died Monday in a head-on collision in Richmond. A third sister, Frances Casey, also of Larkspur, was injured.
Both Margaret, 63, and Katherine, 59, of 19 Monte Vista Avenue, were lifelong Marin residents. Their father, Michael Cloney, was an Irish immigrant who worked for the Northwestern Pacific Railroad in Marin.
Margaret was a retired sales employee of I. Magnin in San Francisco, while Katherine had worked since 1943 as an auditor with the United Bay Area Crusade.
Survivors, in addition to Mrs. Casey, are three other sisters, Mrs. Wendell Parks of Greenbrae, Mrs. Allen Fountain of Portland and Mrs. James C. Percy of Pleasant Hill, and a brother Michael of Larkspur.
Rosary will be recited at 8 p.m. today at Keaton’s Mortuary, San Rafael. Burial will be in Mount Olivet Cemetery, San Rafael.
