The family wishes to thank the staff at Lovelace Medical Center, especially in Cardiology and Hospice for the excellent care he received.I'm Free Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free. I'm following the path God laid, you see. I took his hand when I heard Him call, I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work, to play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I found that peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joys, a friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, oh yes, these things I too will miss. Do not be burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I've savored much, good friends, good times, 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 peace to thee, God wanted me, He set me free. Sunrise Society is serving the family of Mr. Peltz. (891-8200).
