She planned to the last word the exact executions of her parting ceremony and program .
uA[terg low"
I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one.
I'd like to leave an afterglow, Of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo Whispering softly down the ways Of happy times and laughing times
And brig ht and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve To dry before the sun
0f happy memories that I leave When life is done.
