Obituary for Marilyn M. Geraghty (Hawk)
I’m Free
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free,
I’m following the path God has laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard His 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 the peace at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joys-
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Oh 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 savored 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 heart, and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
Marilyn M. Geraghty, 77, of New Holland, passed away on Sunday, June 4, 2017 at Lancaster General Hospital. She was the loving wife of Thomas P. Geraghty, with whom she shared over 54 years of marriage.
In addition to her husband, she is survived by two children, Thomas and Aileen Geraghty, and a sister, Jaunita Clowery. She was a daughter of the late Jacob W. and Julia (Danielo) Hawk, whom, in addition to her three brothers, preceded her in death.
