‘Dave’

My HeroYou held my handwhen I was small

You caught me when I fellYou're the hero of my childhood

And my later years as wellAnd every time I think of youMy heart still fills with pride

Though I'll always miss you DadI know you're by my side

In laughter and in sorrowIn sunshine and through rain

I know you're watching over meUntil we meet again

Don't Forget to Remember Me - Bee Gees

I'M FREE

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm freeI'm following the path laid for me

I took their hand when I heard them callI turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another dayto laugh, to love, to work or play

Tasks left undone must stay that wayI found that place at the close of day.

If my parting has left a voidThen fill it with a remembered joyA friendship shared, a laugh, a kissAh yes, these things, I too, will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrowI wish you the sunshine of tomorrowMy life's been full, I savoured much –

Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too briefDon't lengthen it now with undue grief

Lift up your heart and share with me; Treasure our memories, I've been set free
