Margaret MacCarron

For our early memories in time one must go back
Years ago the O' Donoghue family of Cullen lived near the old Millstreet Greyhound Track
Along with their mother Margaret, Bernard and Eileen
In the decades of time changes are to be seen

A kind and a beautiful person as all who knew her would agree
Margaret and her husband Patrick MacCarron in Bandon raised their family
From life sad to learn of her she has passed away
For all who did know her their saddest news of the day

One so humble in her ways and free of conceit
With a beautiful smile always a joy to meet
To her husband, children and grandchildren, siblings, relations and friends such a very sad loss
But in life as is said to bear there is many a cross

Though the life's breath from her it well may be gone
In memory she is one who deserves to live on
She left Inchaleigh near Millstreet Town in her physical prime
But eventually we all become victims of time

Deceased in her seventies she was not very old
One whose life story surely deserves to be told
Can only hope her passing from life for her was a painless release
In Bandon forever she now is at peace.
