"Don't grieve for me for now I am free,
I am following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard Him call,
I turned my back and left it all.
Perhaps my time seem all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me.
God wanted me now, He set me free."

"Not gone...but only gone before
To where love lives on evermore.
Not lost...but only lost from sight,
As one who walks ahead at night.
Not parted...only just apart,
In memory kept close in heart.
Not of the past...but now to be
A part of our eternity."

Leaving memories too deep for tears
Within the hearts of many friends."

"That woman is a success
Who loves life and lives it to the fullest
Who has discovered and shared the strengths
And talents that are uniquely her own
Who puts her best into each task and
Leaves each situation better than she found it.
who seeks and finds that which is beautiful
In all people - and all things
Whose heart is full of love and warm with passion
Who has found joy in living and peace within herself."
