In the quiet of the morning you
heard a gentle call
You took the hand of Jesus and quietly left us
all
There is always a face before us
A voice we would love to hear, a
smile we will always remember
of our brother Paddy, we love and miss so
dear. |

Wonderful response from
Gerry Murphy to whom I am grateful for the following
comments
All three
members of the band 'Nivita' were killed along with little Emma Conroy on the
27th of October,1999. The band consisted of Niamh O'Herlihy, her sister Anita
and Carmel Conroy. The name of band comes from a combination of the names Niamh
and Anita, the original members of the band. Niamh (20) was a journalism
student in her final year at Griffith College, she was the founder, lead
singer, songwriter and driving force behind the band. Niamh was known for her
organisational skills, charismatic personality, love of horses, the fact that
she never took a drink and was always the life and soul of every party. She
will be forever remembered for the effect and impression she left on ever
person she met. Anita had just completed her leaving certificate and had taken
a year out before attending college to concentrate on music and her modelling
career. Anita (17) was a backing vocalist for the band, she played guitar and
was a talented pianist. Carmel (21) had previously worked for an Internet
consultancy firm in Churchtown and had also decided to concentrate on her music
career. Carmel, too, was a backing vocalist and she was extremely gifted at
co-ordinating harmonies. Little Emma Conroy at 21 months was their number one
fan having attended all rehearsals. Carmel too had a wonderful personality and
like Niamh and Anita loved to enjoy herself, but above all else will always be
remembered for the time, love and devotion with which she took care of her
daughter Emma. Together the three girls and the music they loved were a force
and a beauty never to be forgotten. |
