I'd like to leave only treasured memories, smiles and good thoughts. Do not grieve for me for I am free. I am following the path God has laid for me. I took his hand when I heard Him call. I turned my back and left it all. I've found peace at the end of the day. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much, good times, good friends and a loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free. I love you all and will miss your smiling faces. BUT DO NOT GRIEVE FOR ME, FOR I AM FREE.
