Poems A limb has fallen from the family tree.

I keep hearing a voice that says, “Grieve not for me.

Remember the best times, the laughter, the song.

The good life I lived while I was strong.

Continue my heritage, I’m counting on you.

Keep smiling and surely the sun will shine through.

My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest.

Remembering all, how I truly was blessed.

Continue traditions, no matter how small.

Go on with your life, don’t worry about falls

I miss you all dearly, so keep up your chin.

Until the day comes we’re together again.

Release Me

Release me, let me go.

I have so many things to see and do.

You mustn’t tie yourself to me with tears,

Be happy that we had so many years.

I gave you my love and 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 on alone.

So grieve awhile for me, if grieve you must

Then let your grief be comforted by trust.

It’s only for awhile that we must part

So bless the memories with in your heart.

I won’t be far away, for life goes on,

So, if you need me, call and I will come

Though you can’t see or touch me. I’ll be near,

And if you listen with your heart,

You’ll hear all my love around you soft and clear.

And then, when you must come this way alone,

I’ll greet you with a smile and say,

“Welcome Home”.

Obituary Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe

also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it

were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place

for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come

again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye

may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye

know. John 14:1-4
