Friends please don’t mourn for me I’m still here, thoughtyou don’t see I’m right by your side each night and day and within your heart I long to stay. My body is gone but I’m always near. I’m everything you feel, see or hear. My spirit is free but I’ll never depart as long as you keep me alive in your heart. I’m the colourful leaves when autumn’s around and the pure white snow that blankets the ground. I’m the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine and you will see that the face in the moon is mine. When you start thinking there is no one to love you, you can talk to me through the Lord above you. I whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees and you will find my presence in the soft summer breeze. I’m the hot salty tears that flow when you weep and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep. I’m the smile you see on a baby’s face just look for me friend I’m in every place.
From your loving wife and mum, Janet, Adam, Troy, Jason, Trish, Kelly, Tanner and families.
