I gave you my love, you can only guess, how much you gave to me in happiness. I thank you for the love you each have shown, but now it's time I traveled on alone. So grieve a while for if grieve you must, then let your grief be comforted by trust. It's only for a while that we must part, so bless the memories within your heart. I won't be far away, for life goes on, so if you need me, call and I will come. Though you cant see or touch me, I'll be near and if you listen with your heart, you'll hear all my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you must come this way alone I'll greet you with a smile, and say, Welcome Home. - Author Unknown. French Mortuary, 1111 University Blvd. NE.
