To Those I Love, and Those Who Love Me
When I am gone release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You must not tie yourself to me with tears Be happy that we
had so many years. I gave you my love-- you can only guess how much you gave me in happiness. I thank you for the love you have shown but now it is time to travel on. So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must. Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It's only for a while that we must part. So bless the memories within your
heart.
We love you Auntie
Devoted Nephew , James Stokes
