Speak of me as you have always done. Remember the good times, laughter, and fun. Share the happy memories we've made. Do not let them wither or fade. I've rested my eyes and gone to sleep, But the memories we've shared are yours to keep She has joined her loved ones and reunited with our dad, And given us the strength not to be sad. We must cherish the thought that even in our own grief The suffering has gone; in its place, she’s found peace.
