Do not stand at my grave and weep,

I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand wind that blow,
I am the diamond glitter on fallen snow.

I am the sunshine on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning (Hush)!
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds encircling flight.

Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am there, I did not die.
I am in heaven on high.

The family sincerely appreciates the many expressions of love, kindness, support and prayers during this time. We are truly blessed.
