Sad to learn that William Cronin an elderly citizen of Knocknakilla has lived his last day
Quite an amiable fellow of him in truth one can say
He and his late wife Eileen raised their children in Knocknakilla near the Town of Millstreet
He was quite a likeable fellow and one who was free of conceit
One who did make many friends over the decades of years
By his family and relative and friends he would have been farewelled in tears
One who to Duhallow had seen many Seasons come and go
But as is often said of time it eventually becomes everyone’s foe
Though the great gift of life from his mortal body may have gone
In all who knew William good memories of him will live on
From the cares of living for us all there will be a final release
In St Mary’s by Cashman’s Hill in Millstreet he now is at peace
Of living time he was one who did have a good span
William Cronin will be remembered as quite a good man.
