Mary Murphy

She was married to Donie Murphy and they lived in Millstreet's Town's West End
And on her journey through life she made many a friend
A good wife and good mother she never sought renown
And a credit to her Parish and her beloved Town.

Before she married Donie Murphy Mary Riordan was her name
And without her smiling presence the West End won't seem the same
To fill her role in her family there is none to take her place
But she will be long remembered for her lovely smiling face.

There was more to Mary Murphy than a good mother and wife
She was such a special person we should celebrate her life
In life we all have our crosses but she had one huge cross to bear
And she bore it without complaint people like her are so rare.

On her journey towards her last day many a new friend she did gain
And fond memories of the one she was with them will long remain
In the West End of Millstreet Town one we never more will see
But the one who claimed the life of Mary will claim the life of you and me.
