Mary Dineen

In Knocknapogue and Millstreet never more to be seen But she will be missed by all who knew her Mary Dineen A good mother to her children and to Paddy a good wife And a very good person who lived a good life. On her journey through life she made many a friend But life is a journey that does have an end To the scythe of the reaper one day we must fall And death is one thing that does await us all. In St Mary's cemetery she forever will lay From knocknapogue that's just a short drive away But with family and friends and acquaintances memories of her will remain And in spirit she will visit her old home again. A great success in life and of her 'twould be fair to say That to help others out she went out of her way In the Parish of Millstreet her's a known and loved face And though life will go on none to take her place. To her family and to her many friends her's is a heartbreaking loss But like 'tis said with life there is many a cross In death from pain there is a final release And in old St Mary's may she rest in peace.
