On The Passing Of Murray Quick

He used to work for Cunningham and Kelleher as their Kato operator
On the big earth digging machines than him there was none greater
He was a sturdy well built man and few if any stronger
But sad to hear that Murray Quick is not with us any longer

On his fifty seventh year he breathed his last in life he bore his crosses
He had his good and bad times and his winnings and his losses
He did not die a pain free death by cancer he was taken
Remembering the man he was fond memories awaken

It is sad to think that the breath of life from Murray has departed
He was a good fellow to know and in his ways kindhearted
To many he was a good friend to his family his passing a great sorrow
Sadly for some people today there will not be a tomorrow

He died far north of his home State of Victoria in Queensland in sunny November
He was a good man Murray Quick and all who knew him will remember
That he was a kind person who had the gift of giving
And sad indeed the very thought that he is no longer living.
