Eily Greaney

Her name was Eily Cronin before she became the late John Joe Greaney's wife
She died in Lackabawn Near Millstreet Town  where she had lived for most of her life
A good wife to John Joe and to her children a good mother and a good person in every way
And her many friends and her grieving family are worse off for her passing today

In Millstreet she first looked on the light of day
And in St Mary's near where she lived her last remains at peace now lay
In Lackabawn her's will be a sadly missed face
In her role in her family none to take her place

In Millstreet one loved by many and to many well known
And in her passing Millstreet has lost one of it's own
In her long and well lived life her friends in numbers did grow
And one can say of her she had the inner glow

In the flesh in Lackabawn never more to be seen
But in all who knew her good memories of her will remain evergreen
One can only hope that her parting from life for her was a painless release
And in life Eily Greaney who was such a good person may she now rest in peace.
