fPten 7 torve come to tfe end of the road I should like to look back and see That 1 have done my very best With the trust thats placed in me.
I should like to know that I have never, By action, words or deed
Betrayed a given confidence Orforsaken afriend in need.
I should like the consolation, When I travel the very last mile To know Ive meant something
To someone and caused those in sorrow to smile. 1 know that I shall be happy
Ifin the heart ofjust one,
lean leave one lingering memory
Ofsomething good that Ive done.
When we have difficult decisions to make and are faced with complex challenges to overcome, we greatly appreciate those who offer their support in so many ways. We dont always know what lies ahead. But just knowing that someone is standing by, fills our hearts with love and gives us courage to handle whatever is before us.
