FUNERAL SERVICES
for
MRS. SUSIE MAE TURNER
The I-Oij is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to
lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still
waters. He restoieth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his names sake. Yea though 1 walk through
the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou
art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou
prepares t a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
thou anointesl my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely
goodness and mercy shall follow me all they days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Rev. Floyd Heard, Officiating
I Am Not There
Do Not stand at my grave and weep:
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn s rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush.
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.
Robert Hepburn
