the web site is for Dawn, Andrée and the Higgins family. This
selection was a favorite song of Andrew Jackson Higgins. We hope
this is your special time to remember. May this be a special remembrance
of the son of Andrée and David who recently passed away. May he
rest in peace.

Oh Danny boy, the pipes,
the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.
And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.
And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me |
 |
And all my
dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me. |
