Michael Sharp

Peacefully and surrounded by his family, after a short illness borne with immense bravery and his usual stoicism, in the truly exceptional care of the staff at Our Lady’s Hospice, Harold’s Cross. He will be sadly missed by his beloved wife Mary, son Ciaran, daughter Cliodhna, cherished grandson Conor, daughter-in-law Fiona, son-in-law John, John’s children Jessica and David, relatives, neighbours and many friends. Michael will be fondly remembered by those in his amateur dramatic groups, former work and trade union colleagues and everyone throughout Leinster Cricket, especially in Pembroke C.C.

Rest in Peace

In tears we saw you sinking,

We watched you fade away,

Our hearts were almost broken,

You fought so hard to stay,

But when we saw you sleeping,

So peacefully free from pain,

We could not wish you back,

To suffer that again
