On The Passing Of Eileen Cotter

Where old Clara Mountain as ever looks down
A dear friend to many people in Millstreet and Millstreet Town
Eileen Cotter from life has prematurely passed away
So sad to learn she has lived her last night and day

One of a large family a daughter to Jimmy and Mary her praises deserve to be sung
In her case it is true the good do die young
To many in Millstreet a dear and trusting friend
And sadly her life's journey for her has come to an end

In Millstreet one who had gained many friends through the years
And her passing from life would not have gone without tears
In her she had love, compassion and empathy
All who knew or knew of her with this could only agree

For good in the Human World one who did sow the seed
And of many more people like Eileen was of humanity is in need
The Human World in need of more people who for others do care
Far too many of their own needs are only aware

Eileen Cotter was one not destined to grow old
But the story of her life deserves for to be told
In her lifetime for the betterment of humanity good seeds she did sow
She was one who had in her the bright inner glow.
