Eileen Newman, Westview, Cloonfad and formerly of Killathurley, Swinford and Manchester. Months Mind Mass on Sunday 11th July in St. Patrick’s Church, Cloonfad at 10.30am. A light went out on Earth for us,  The day we said goodbye, And on that day a star was born, The brightest in the sky.  God called your name so softly, That only you could hear, And no one heard the footsteps,  Of Angels drawing near. The Golden Gates stood open, God saw you needed rest, His garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best.  If tears could build a stairway, And memories a lane, We’d walk right up to Heaven, And bring you back again.  Please don’t be unhappy, Just Because I’m out of sight, Remember that I’m with you, Every morning noon and night.

Margaret Kerrigan,Cloonlee, Ballinlough, Co. Roscommon. Months Mind Mass in the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Ballinlough on Sunday 11th July at 12 noon. God looked around his garden, And found an empty place. He then looked down upon the earth, And saw your tired face.  He put His arms around you, And lifted you to rest. God’s garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering, He knew that you were in pain. He knew that you would never, Get well on earth again. He saw the road was getting rough, And the hills were hard to climb. So He closed your weary eyelids, And whispered “Peace be thine.” It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone… For part of us went with you, The day God called you home.
