â??Do not stand at my grave and weep;I am not there. I do not sleep.I am a thousand winds that blow.I am the diamond glints on snow.I am the sunlight on ripened grain.I am the gentle autumn rain.When you awaken in the morning's hushI am the swift uplifting rushOf quiet birds in circled flight.I am the soft stars that shine at night.Do not stand at my grave and cry;I am not there. I did not die.â? â?¦â?¦.Mary Elizabeth Fryeâ??A new and perfect bodyhas entered into paradisea soul has left this struggleand entered eternal resta life has ceases its mortal beatingand heaven has gained a saintfor a faithful disciplehas been set freeand has joined eternity.â? â?¦.Ray Foss â??What though the radiance which was once so brightBe now for ever taken from my sight,Though nothing can bring back the hourOf splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;We will grieve not, rather findStrength in what remains behind…â? â?¦â?¦â?¦â?¦â?¦William WordsworthMay the road rise to meet youMay the wind always be at your backMay the sun shine warm upon your faceMay the rains fall soft upon your fieldsAnd until we meet again May God hold you in the palm of His handâ? â?¦Irish Blessing "Now cracks a noble heart… Good night, sweet prince (ss) And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!" â?¦…Hamlet, Act v, Sc.2 by William ShakespeareHugs, Patti and Joe
