Mary Dineen

In Knocknapogue and Millstreet never more to be seen
But she will be missed by all who knew her Mary Dineen
A good mother to her children and to Paddy a good wife
And a very good person who lived a good life.

On her journey through life she made many a friend
But life is a journey that does have an end
To the scythe of the reaper one day we must fall
And death is one thing that does await us all.

In St Mary's cemetery she forever will lay
From Knocknapogue that's just a short drive away
But with family and friends and acquaintances memories of her will remain
And in spirit she will visit her old home again.

A great success in life and of her 'twould be fair to say
That to help others out she went out of her way
In the Parish of Millstreet her's a known and loved face
And though life will go on none to take her place.

To her family and to her many friends her's is a heartbreaking loss
But like 'tis said with life there is many a cross
In death from pain there is a final release
And in old St Mary's may she rest in peace.
