To Those I Love

When I am gone, just release me,

Let me go so I can move into my

Afterglow. You must not tie me down

with your tears; let’s 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’s time

I traveled alone. So grieve for me awhile,

If grieve you must. Then let your grief be

Comforted with trust. It’s only for a while

That we must part, so bless the memories

Within your heart.

And then, when you must

Come this way alone, I’ll greet you with a

“Welcome Home.”

APPRECIATION

On behalf of the family, we wish to express their gratitude

for your many acts of kindness, and for your

attendance at the funeral service.

MOTHER LOVE

God surely knew the world would need

A gentle loving touch,

When He created mother love

That warms our hearts so much.

He must have known that children

Would need a guiding hand,

Someone who’d always be there

To care and understand.

God must have known our

hearts would need

A special kind of cheer

When He endowed a mother’s face

With smiles that would endear.

Of all the gifts that God does send

From His heavenly realm above,

There is none that is more precious

Than that of mother’s love.

“I’m Free”

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’‘m free,I’m following the path God laid for me.I took His hand when I heard Him call,

I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,To laugh, to love, to work or play.

Tasks left undone must stay that way,I’ve found that peace at the close of

day.

If my parting has left a void,Fill it now with remembered joy.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,Ah yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.My life’s been full, I’ve savored much,

Good friends, good times, a loved one’stouch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.Lift up your heart and share with me,God wanted me now, He set me free.
