It is with deep sadness that the firm announces the death of Dr Mirette Hanley Corboy, Mother of our principal, Melvyn Hanley. Mirette was a trail blazing woman at a time when it was unusual to have women in senior positions in industry. She was one of the first woman Managing Directors of a major construction firm in this country and the first woman President of the Construction Industry Federation, a term which she held on three occasions and former Governor of the University Limerick. In addition, Mirette chaired a number of not for profit organisations the Limerick Youth Service, Limerick Enterprise and Development Board. She was appointed to many Government Fora and the National Roads Authority during her life. She was a great advocate for the development of the mid-west region as well as being a wonderful Mother. We cherish the memories and celebrate her life.
