Sally, I'm so very sorry to hear this sad news. Please give my condolences to your entire family, especially her daughters and her husband.
To Those I Love
If I should ever leave you, whom I love,
to go along the Silent Way, grieve not,
Nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk
of me as if I were beside you, for
Who knows,... but that I shall be oftentimes?
I'd come, I'd come, could I but find a way!
But would not tears and grief be barriers?
And when you hear a song I used to sing.
Or see a bird I loved, let not the thought of me
be sad,..for I am loving you just as I always have.
You were so good to me ...
So many things I wanted still to do...
So many, many things to say to you...
Remember that I did not fear ...
It was just leaving you I could not bear ..
We cannot see Beyond ...
But this I know;
I loved you so --
'twas heaven here with you!
