 Please dont say that I gave up, just say that I gave in. Dont say I lost the battle, for it was Gods war to lose or win. 
Please dont say how good I was, but that I did my best. Just say I tried to do whats right, 
to give the most I could, not do less. Please dont give me wings or halos, thats for God to do. 
I want no more than I deserve, no extras, just my due. Please dont give flowers, or talk in harsh tones. Dont be concerned about me now, Im well with God, Ive made it home. 
Dont talk about what could have been, its over and its done. Just see to all my familys needs, the battle has been won. When you draw a picture of me, dont draw me as a saint, 
Ive done some good, Ive done some wrong, so use all your paint. Not just the bright and light tones, use some gray and dark In fact, dont put me down on canvas paint me in your heart. Dont just remember all the good times, but remember all the bad. For life is full of many things some happy and some sad. But if you must do something, then I have one last request 
Forgive me for the wrongs Ive done and with the love thats left Thank God for my souls resting, Thank God for all who loved me, Praise God who loved me best.

Heartfelt 
Words are inadequate to express the humbleness and gratefulness we feel towards our friends and family who have consoled us during this time. Your prayers, your love, your presence and service has sustained us. Your cards of sympathy, telegrams, floral and all other social were warmly appreciated. We saw all of these as Gods love expressed through you. Whatever you did to console our hearts we thank you so much. May God continue to bless you.
