When I Must Leave You
When I must leave you for a little while Please do not grieve and shed wild tears And hug your sorrow to you through the years, But start out bravely with a gallant smile
And for my sake and in His name, Live on and do all things the same. Feed not your loneliness on empty days But fill each waking hour in useful ways. Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near. And never, never be afraid to die For 1 am waiting for you in the sky.
The family acknowledges with grateful appreciation the many acts of kindness shown during the illness and passing of our loved one. May God richly bless each of you. ~ The Family
