Of years of life she did live a lengthy span
Noreen Murphy the wife of the late Johnny Dan
Loved by all of the people to whom she was known
Of her one can say one of Millstreet’s own
One of the Hickeys of the old Town of Millstreet
As nice a person as one could wish for to meet
A good mother to her children and to her husband Johnny a good wife
In Inchaleigh she lived for most of her life
In Millstreet where she had lived for years
One who was well worthy of the parting tears
That were shed for her by her friends and family
Though of life’s cares and worries death does set us free
Millstreet for her living in it was a far better place
And from there her’s it will be a sadly missed face
One can only hope from life her’s was a painless release
And may she ever rest now in eternal peace
By Cashman’s hill where her last remains forever lay
From her old home perhaps less than a mile away
In life by good example she was one who did lead
And the news of her passing it was so sad for to read.
