To My Wife & Family:
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;
Andfor my sake and in my name Live on and do all things the same Feed not your loneliness on empty days. Butfill each waking hour in useful ways, Reach out your hand in comfort and cheer And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near, And never, never be afraid to die For I am waitingfor you in the sky!
-Helen Steiner Rice

Dont spend too much time in mourning. Tears arefor the sad
I left to be with Jesus and this should make you glad. Dont waste your hours in grieving, no need to feel distress.
Im tired oflifesfrustrations and had to get some rest. Dont vex yourselfwith questions, or try to reason why. Dont lose the love I gave you, feed it with your care.
Grow it with devotion and spend it everywhere. Dontfret because my leaving came in such a way. We will have another meeting in Gods Eternal Day!
