For times of sorrow and remembrance or to be read at funerals.

Fond memory brings the light
Of other days around me ...
Thomas Moore

Of all good times that e'er we shared,
I leave to you fond memory ...
Irish Traditional

In times of sorrow, grief or loss we often look to our poets and songwriters, to our heritage and tradition for words of comfort, hope and inspiration. We look too for those words that reflect our sense of place, of belonging, words that sum up our deepest feelings about a loved one.

Here, for the first time, is a collection specific to the Irish experience.Old and modern -- poetry, prayers, songs, phrases, blessings -- fitting words to express your heartfelt grief and to bring solace and healing.
