Memorial To Dad

This is a memorial to my dad, who passed away 5 years ago. January 1th is his Birthday. Dad is missed by all his 9 children and his many grandchildren, and great grandchildren, but he left a legacy behind for all of us, his sense of humour, he always told us, to keep your chin up and smile. He always had a joke to tell everyone, he touched so many lives with his sense of humour. We know how proud he would have been of all his children. This is a poem our family keeps close at heart when thinking about our Dad.

Miss Me But Let Me Go

When I come to the end of the road and the sun has set for me, I hope that you will realize my pain at last is free.

Miss me a little - but not for too long, and not with your head bowed low. Remember the love we once shared Miss me - But let me go.

For this is a journey that we all must take, and each must go alone. Its all a part of a master plan, a step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick at heart, go to the friends we know, and bury your sorrows in doing good deeds, Miss Me But Let Me Go.
