In Remembrance
Celebrate that I have lived
Be thankful for all the evidence that I loved
Rejoice that I laughed
Be glad that I was born
And for all the years that lay before me
Remember my hard work
Recall my acts of kindness
Note that I was me
Uniquely made, I uniquely lived
Be grateful for the contribution that I made to all the lives I touched
-Specially to your own
Your recollections mean that my life had meaning
That I found fulfilment in knowing you, in loving you
And having my own place in your heart
Continue to love me for all that I was to you
And draw strength from the life that we shared together
