Dorothy M. Murphy

Even though we did not see Dot often, we will miss her often.

To all Dot's Family:

How deely saddened we were to hear of Dot's death. She and her husband were two special people and great neighbors in the Lower Mills. Just last Wednesday, while down in Falmouth visiting the Gorhams, we stopped by Dorrie's house hopeful we could see Dot for she meant so much to us. We know that God will be good to her as He must have a very special place reserved for such a beautiful person like Dot. While we pray for Dot, we also pray for those she left behind for the tremendous loss they now have in their lives. May God Bless all of you. With all our love,

Dorothy will be sadly missed by all who knew her - she was indeed a wonderful person and a most warm and talented individual... she was very special to Dick and me, and we will miss her, but know that she is now one of God's Angels.

To all the Murphy's:
sorry to hear of Dot's passing. Such a wonderful, caring woman. We will all miss her, but know heaven got a real good one this week.

What a neat lady.

Dot was a wonderful mother and role model to us all. We send our love and prayers, Susan and Tom O'Mara

To David, Cindy and Family,
What a beautiful tribute to a lady that lived life to the fullest.
With love and prayers,
Peter and Anne Gannon

A beautiful, elegant, sophisticated lady in all ways. I always looked forward to her closing out Sunday evenings with her playing the piano.
God Bless You Lovely Lady.
With love & respect, Donna Hart (a.k.a. Sunday Donna)

Murph & Family,

We are sorry to hear of your mothers passing. May her memory comfort you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
