“Remember me, I say…speak of me as you always have done. Remember me in the good times, laughter, and fun. Share the happy memories we’ve made. Don’t let them wither or fade. I’ll be with you in the summer’s sun and when the winter’s chill has come.

I’ll be the voice that whispers in the breeze. I am at peace now. Put your mind at ease. I have rested my eyes and gone to sleep. But memories we share are yours to keep.

Sometimes our final days may be a test. But Remember me when I was at my best. Although things may not be the same. Don’t be afraid to use my name.

Comfort each other and try to smile. Let your sorrow last for just a while. I have lived a life filled with joy. Live on now and make me proud.”
