Family and Friends
Now that I've come to the end of the road, And the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom-filled room, Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little, but not too long, And not with your head bowed low; Remember the love that we once shared, Miss me, but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take, And each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart, Go to Jesus whom we know, Laugh at the things we used to do. Miss me, but let me go.
How truly grateful we are to have wonderful friends like you! Your love and support for our family has been very much appreciated during this time of loss. Your comforting expressions of sympathy will always be remembered with deep gratitude.
