 TAWNAGH CHURCHYARD
[Canon James Kevin CASEY]
Accept, fond parents, throned above
Life's stormy ocean wild;
This monument of filial love
From your devoted child.
You taught me young to worship God,
And every sin to dread;
Along the path the saints have trod
Your children young you led.
Faith, hope, love and gifts beyond
All else between the poles;
I owe them to your teaching fond,
May Heaven rest your souls.
Visitors to graveyards should not clean gravestones. The best time to view headstones is at low light, early or late in the day and during winter when growth of weeds is restricted. A full record of gravestone inscriptions can be viewed in the Sligo County Library. In addition the desired information can be purchased from the Sligo Heritage & Genealogical Centre (online).
