Poem

lived my life for you precious Lord.

Everyday you received the glory and praise you so richly

deserved.

So now I leave behind a legacy of love.

Love of my family and friends.

Even though they mourn for me Lord,

I know their hearts are in understanding.

Understanding that this is your will.

When it was your voice that I heard calling me home^

They know that it is with you that I belong.

"

So to my legacy always remember that I am with yoik\ 0 \

And to you my son, know now that Im like the wind.

Even though you cannot touch or see me.

]

Im like that breeze that brushes across your face <

on a warm spring day, Enjoy it in remembrance of me,

, ~

For even though Im no longer in your sight

Ill always be there like that gentle breeze.
