Denis Galvin

He did not live to grow old, frail and gray
So sad to know that Denis passed away
In St Mary's Cemetery his last remains now lay
He was a decent man in every way.

News of Denis Galvin's passing came with sorrow and regret
And those who knew him never will forget
A gentle person down to earth and kind
His equal would be very hard to find.

Still only in his fifties when he died
He will be missed from Duhallow's countryside
He never had children or never had a wife
And he was one who led a simple life.

As nice a person as one would wish to meet
He will be sadly missed from Duhallow and Millstreet
From his life's cares he has found a release
And Denis Galvin may he rest in peace.
