To My Family and FriendsWhen I am gone, release me, let me goI have so many things to see and do.

I gave you my love and you can only guessHow much you gave to me in happiness.

I thank you for the love you each have shownBut now it is time I travelled alone.

So grieve a while for me - if grieve you mustThen let your grief be comforted by trust.It ’s only for a while that we must partSo bless those memories in your heart.

Though you cannot see or touch me, I’ll be near -with 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 a

“Welcome Home”.
