Sfoe 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 each have shown, but now it is time I traveled
on alone. So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must. Then
let your grief be comforted by trust. Its only for a while that we
must part, so bless the memories within your heart. I wont be
far away for life goes on. So ifyou need me, call and I will come.
Though you cant see me or touch me, Ill be near . . . and ifyou
listen with your heart, you will hear all of my love around you,
soft and clear. And then, when you must come this way alone,
Ill greet you with a smile and a "Welcome Home".
The family wishes to express our sincere appreciation for all acts of kindness rendered during this time of bereavement. May God bless each and every one of you. The Family
