Homily preached at the funeral of Fr. Hugh Murphy OFM Cap. (1919-1990). He died on 9 March 1990 and was buried in Livingstone Cemetery. The homily reads: ‘It must be remarked that Fr. Hugh was 70 years of age. He was ordained a priest at the age of 28. That means that he spent 28 years of his life in his native Ireland and 42 years in the country of his adoption – Zambia. … And because Fr. Hugh was one of you, you have mourned his passing as one of your own. What greater proof of this than the hundreds of Catholics, and others keeping three long night vigils of prayer and hymns outside Maramba Catholic Church’.
