On The Passing Of Teresa Murphy

 Sad news out of Millstreet to read of today
Teresa Murphy nee Corcoran from life has passed away
To her children a good mother and to the late Paddy Murphy a devoted wife
She was a good person who lived an honourable life

In the West End of Millstreet Town she had lived for many years
And her family and many friends would have farewelled her in tears
In Manchester in England far from her first hometown she died
For any of us from death there is nowhere to hide

An octogenarian one of Millstreet's own
She died far from where she was well loved and well known
The town where she did have many a good friend
So few of us know where our life's journey for us will end

That we are born to die is quite obviously clear
And the passing of a good person is always sad to read of or of hear
Hope her parting from life for her was a painless release
The good person Teresa Murphy may she rest in peace.
