First anniversary of the passing of the late Carol McGirr nee Turley RIP 4th September 2025

One year ago God called your name
And it was your time to fly.
It broke our hearts to watch you go
And left us wondering why?

But as the months passed, we felt you close
Like you never really left.
We feel your laughter in times of joy
And your hugs when we're distressed.

See, you never really left us,
In our hearts you'll always be.
We can't look back with sadness now,
Why cry for a soul set free?

This year was just the first of many
That you'll be missed each passing day,
But we know we'll reunite in heaven
And then forever we shall stay.
