Denis’ Months Mind will be celebrated at Mass on Sunday, January 26th in 

St. Mary’s Church, Ravensdale at 11.30am. All very welcome. 

I’m Free

Don’t grieve for me now I’m free,

I’m following the path God laid for me.

I took His hand when I heard Him call,

I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,

To laugh, to love, to work or play.

Tasks left undone must stay that way,

I found that peace at close of day.

If my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with remembered joy.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,

Ah, yes these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life’s been full, I’ve savoured much,

Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,

Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your hearts and share with me,

God wanted me now, He set me free.

Denis will always be remembered by his wife Joan, his daughters Claire, Siobhan and Anne-Marie, his adoring grandchildren Jackson, Shaun, Rebecca, Rachael, Ciara, and Grayson, his sisters Rita and Pauline, his sons-in-law Michael, Brian and Chris, his brothers-in-law, sister-in-law, nephew Laurence, niece Jenny, relatives, neighbours and friends.
