As you release this butterfly in honor of me,Know that I’m with you and will always be.Hold a hand, say a prayer, close your eyes and see me there.Although you may feel a bit torn apart,Please know that I’ll be forever in your heart.Now fly away butterfly as high as you can go,I’m right there with you more than you know.

deign to listen to thesupplications of thy needy
brethren that, by imitating thy virtues, we may live contentedin that state in which God has placed us and carrying with strength and courage our cross,we may follow in the footstepsof Our Blessed Redeemer and His most afflicted Mother, thatat last we may reach the
Kingdom of Heaven through themerits of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen
Not gone from Daddy’s memory,Not gone from Mammy’s love,But gone to shine with Jesus,In His beautiful home above.
Our Lady wished a pretty flower,To lay at Jesus’s feet,
Her choice was of the fairest,A lily pure and sweet.
She gazed amid the little ones,And stopped to pick the best,
Dear (name) was the chosen one,With Jesus now he/she rests.
Hold him/her, O Jesus, in Thy arms,And let him/her henceforth be,A messenger of love betweenOur human hearts and thee.
VERSE 57AWhen I Must Leave You
When I must leave youFor a little while - Please do not grieveAnd shed wild tears
And hug your sorrow to youThrough the years,But start out bravelyWith a gallant smile;And for my sakeAnd in my nameLive on and do
All things the same,Feed not your loneliness
On empty days,But fill each waking hour
In useful ways,Reach out your handIn comfort and in cheer
And I in turn will comfort youAnd hold you near;And, never, neverBe afraid to die,
For I am waiting for youIn the sky!
VERSE 58A VERSE 59A
God grant me the Serenity
to accept the things I cannot change
and the Courage
to change the things I can
and the Wisdom to know the difference!
“I’ll lend you for a little while, A child of mine, God said,
For you to love the while he/she lives, And mourn for when he/she’s dead.It may be six or seven years,
Or fortytwo or three. But will you, till I call him/her back,
take care of him/her for me.He’ll bring his/her charms to gladden you and should his/her stay be brief,You’ll always have his/her memories
as a solace for your grief.I cannot promise he/she will stay since
all from earth return,But there are lessons taught below I
want this child to learn.I’ve looked the whole world over in my
search for teachers true,And from the folks that crowd life’s
lane I have chosen (name)
VERSE 60A
Road to Eternity
Life is but a stopping place,A pause in what’s to be,
A resting place along the road,To sweet Eternity.
We all have different journeys,Different paths along the way,We all were meant to learn some
things,But never meant to stay....
Our destination is a place,Far greater than we know,
For some, the journey’s quicker,For some the journey’s slow.
But when the journey finally ends,We’ll claim a great reward,And find an everlasting peace,Together with the Lord.
VERSE 62A
No matter how life changes,No matter what we do,
A special place within our hearts,Is always kept for you.
VERSE 61AThey shall grow not old as we that areleft to grow old age shall not wearythem nor the years condemn. At thegoing down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them.
VERSE 64AO Sweet Jesus, for the sake of ThyBitter Passion and the sorrows of ThyImmaculate Mother have mercy onhis soul and let the light of The countenance shine upon him.
VERSE 67A
All that I ask is that you remember me at Mass and Holy Communion
VERSE 63A
Loved with a love beyond all telling, Missed with a grief beyond all tears.
VERSE 65A
It does not take a special day, For me to think of you,
Each Mass I hear, each prayer I say, Is offered up for you.
VERSE 66A
Those who die in grace go no further from us than God
and God is very near.
VERSE 68A
Each time we look at your picture,You seem to smile and say, Don’t be sad but courage take, And love each other for my sake.
VERSE 69A
Fold him O Jesus in Thine arms and let him henceforth be a
messenger of love between our human hearts and thee.

Their Journey’s Just Begun
Don’t think of them as gone away,
There journey’s just begun,
Life holds so many facets,
This earth is only one.
Just think of them as resting,
From the sorrows and the tears,
In a place of warmth and comfort,
Where there are no days and years.
Think how they must be wishing,
That we could know today,
How nothing but our sadness,
Can really pass away.
And think of them as living,
In the hearts of those they touched…
For nothing loved is ever lost –
And they were loved so very much.
God grant me the Serenity
to accept the things I cannot change
and the Courage
to change the things I can
and the Wisdom to know the difference!

The Rose Beyond The Wall
A rose once grew,where all could see,
sheltered beside a garden wallAnd, as the days passed swiftly by,
it spread it’s branches, straight and tall.
One day, a beam of light shonethrough a crevice that had
opened wide -The rose bent gently toward itswarmth then passed beyond
to the other sideNow, you who deeply feel it’s loss,be comforted - the rose blooms there,
it’s beauty even greater now,nurtured by God’s own loving care.

"I'll lend you for a while a child of mine,"
"For you to love the while he lives
and mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years,
or twenty-two or three,
But will you, till I call him back,
take care of him for me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you,
and should his stay be brief,
You'll have his lovely memories
as solace for your grief."

God looked around His garden,And found an empty space,
He then looked down upon the earth,And saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you, And lifted you to rest,
God’s garden must be beautiful,He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,He knew you were in pain,
He knew that you would neverGet well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough,And the hills were hard to climb,So He closed your weary eyelids,And whispered “Peace be Thine”.It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,For part of us went with you,The day God called you home.

The Lord is my shepherd, I’ll not want,He makes me down to lie,
In pastures green he leadeth me,The quiet waters by.
My soul he doth restore again,And me to walk doth make,
Within the paths of righteousness,E’en for his own name’s sake.
Yea though I walk in death’s dark vale,Yet will I fear none ill,
For thou art with me and thy rodAnd staff me comfort still.
Goodness and mercy all my life,Shall surely follow me,
And in God’s house for evermore,My dwelling place shall be.

world without end.
What is dying?
I am standing on the seashore.A ship at my side spreads her whitesails to the morning breeze and startsout for the Blue ocean. She is an
object of beauty and I stand and watchher until at length she fades on the farhorizon. Then someone at my sidesays, “There, she has gone” – Gonewhere? Gone from my sight - that isall. She is just as large in mast, hulland spar as she was when she left myside. The diminished size is in meand not in her, and just at that
moment when someone by my sidesays, “ She’s gone,” there are othersto take up the glad shout – “there she
comes.” And that is dying.

VERSE 49A VERSE 50ASafely home
I am at home in Heaven, dear ones, oh, sohappy and so bright, there is perfect joy and beauty, in this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over, ever restlessyearning passed, I am now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last.Did you wonder I so calmly, trod the valley of the shade? Oh, but Jesus love illumined, every dark and fearful glade.And He came Himself to meet me, in thatway so hard to tread, and with Jesus’ arm tolean on, could I have one doubt or dread.Then you must not grieve so sorely, for Ilove you dearly still, try to look beyond
earth;s shadows, pray to trust our father’s will.There is still work waiting for you, so youmust not idly stand, do it now while liferemaineth, you shall rest in Jesus’ land.When that work is all completed, he willgently call you Home, oh, the rapture ofthat meeting, oh, the joy to see you come.
Lonely is the home without you,Life to us is not the same;
All the world would be like Heaven,If we could have you back again.A light from our household gone,
A voice we loved is still,A place is vacant in our home,That never can be filled.
May the God of Love and Mercy,Care for our loved who is gone,And bless with consolation,Those left to carry on.
The happy hours we once enjoyed,How sweet their memory still,But death has left a vacant place,
This world can never fill.How dearly we loved you,And prayed you might live,But Jesus just beckoned,And we had to give.
God gave us strength to bear it,And courage to fight the blow,What it has meant to lose you,God alone will ever know.
VERSE 51A
We lost a father with a heart of gold,How much we miss him can never be toldHe shared our troubles and helped us alongIf we follow his footsteps we will never go wrong.
We miss you from your fireside chairYour loving smile and gentle airYour vacant place no one can fillWe miss you father and always will.
He was a father so very rareContent in his home and always thereOn earth he toiled, in heaven he rests
God bless you father you were one of the best.
Each time we look at your pictureyou seem to smile and sayDon’t be sad but courage takeAnd love each other for my sake.
O Sweet Jesus, for the sake of Thy BitterPassion and the sorrows of Thy ImmaculateMother have mercy on his soul and let thelight of Thy countenance shine upon him.

They say there is a reason,They say that time will heal,But neither time nor reason,Will change the way we feel.
For no one knows the heartache,That lies beyond our smiles,
No one knows how many times,We have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something,So there won’t be any doubt,
You’re so wonderful to think of,But so hard to be without.
We cannot bring the old days back,When we were all together,
The family chain is broken now,But memories live forever.

Tomorrow is not promised us
so let us take today,
and make the most of it,

Just speak aloud the kindly thought
and do the kindly deed.
And try to see and understand
some fellow creatures need.
Tomorrow is not promised us,
nor any other day,
so let us make the most of it,
The once we pass this way.

Distance takes us far apart,And darkens my today.
I have to keep remembering -You’re just a thought away.
When the world is too confusing,Times are hard to bear.
I pull your precious meaning,your bright spirit, from the air.
If I sometimes drift into,A lonely state of mind,
I gather up the memories,Of days we left behind.
And though you’re not beside me,I can tap into my heart,
And draw upon the warmth and love,That lives when we’re apart.
And with these fond reflectionsOn the times when you were near,
I sense a little bit of whatIt’s like to have you here.

I’m Free
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free,I’m following the path God laid for me.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 or 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 joy.A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,Ah, yes these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.My life’s been full, I’ve savoured 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 share with me,God wanted me now, He set me free.

This world can never fill.Your life was one of kindly deeds,A helping hand for other’s needs,Sincere and true in heart and mind.Beautiful memories left behind.O Sweet Jesus, for the sake of

I am the soft stars that shin eat night.Do not stand at my grave and cry;I am not there. I did not die.

Dear Lady of the wayside, let thyLights be always shining,
As through the darksome ages forThe traveller they glowed,
So they’ll land us o’er the desert toThe Haven of our dreaming,
To thy home O' Mother Mary at theending of the road.

Gone from our home that smiling face,The happy cheerful ways,
The heart that won so many friends,In bygone happy days
Lonely is the home without you,Life to us is not the same;
All the world would be like Heaven,If we could have you back again.In dreams we see her smiling face,
And kiss her tender brow,But in our aching hearts we know,
We have no mother now.The voice is now silent, the heart now cold,The smile and the welcome that met us of old,We miss her and mourn her in sorrow unseen,And dwell on the memory of days that have been.
We sat beside your bedside,Our hearts were crushed and sore;We did our duty to the end,‘Til we could do no more.
In tears we watched you sinking,We watched you fade away;
And though our hearts were breaking,We knew you could not stay.
You left behind some aching hearts,That loved you most sincere;We never shall and never willForget you, mother dear.

His Journey’s Just Begun
Don’t think of him as gone away,
His journey’s just begun,
Life holds so many facets,
This earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting,
From the sorrows and the tears,
In a place of warmth and comfort,
Where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing,
That we could know today,
How nothing but our sadness,
Can really pass away.
And think of him as living,
In the hearts of those they touched…
For nothing loved is ever lost –
And he was loved so very much.
God grant me the Serenity
to accept the things I cannot change
and the Courage
to change the things I can
and the Wisdom to know the difference!

Life is but a stopping place,A pause in what’s to be,
A resting place along the road,To sweet Eternity.
We all have different journeys,Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,But never meant to stay....
Our destination is a place,Far greater than we know,

But when the journey finally ends,We’ll claim a great reward,And find an everlasting peace,

My Lord and My GodPray for us, O dearest father,To Jesus Christ, Our King;
That He may bless our lonely homeWhere thou once dwelt therein.And pray that God may give us
strength,To bear our heavy cross;
For no one knows but only HeThe treasure we have lost.
How dearly we loved him,And prayed that he might live,But Jesus just beckoned,And we had to give.
Gone from us, but leaving memories,Death can never take away,
Memories that will always linger,While upon this earth we stay.
Distance takes us far apart,And darkens my today.
I have to keep remembering -You’re just a thought away.
When the world is too confusing,Times are hard to bear.
I pull your precious meaning,your bright spirit, from the air.
If I sometimes drift into,A lonely state of mind,I gather up the memories,Of days we left behind.
And though you’re not beside me,I can tap into my heart,
And draw upon the warmth and love,That lives when we’re apart.
And with these fond reflectionsOn the times when you were near,
I sense a little bit of whatIt’s like to have you here.
VERSE 30ATOGETHERNESS
Death is nothing at all - I have only slippedaway into the next room.
Whatever we were to each other, that weare still. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you
always used.
Laugh as we always laughed at the littlejokes we shared together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name be the household word that italways was. Let it be spoken without effort.
Life means all that it ever meant.It is the same that it ever was; there isabsolutely unbroken continuity. Why
should I be out of your mind because I amout of your sight? I am but waiting foryou, for an interval, somewhere very near,just around the corner. All is well. Nothingis past; nothing is lost. One brief momentand all will be as it was before - only better,infinitely happier and forever - we will all
be one together with Christ.

The Memorare
Remember, O most gracious VirginMary, that never was it known thatanyone who fled to thy protection,implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence I flyunto thee, O Virgin of Virgins, myMother, to thee I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. OMother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions, but in thyclemency, hear me and answer me.
Amen
What no thief can steal, the memoriesof our Times together; the tender,
love-filled moments, the successes wehave shared, the Hard times thatbrought us closer together And theroads we have walked side by side. I also leave you a solemn promise that after I am home in the bosom of God, I will still be present in thecommunion of Saints, whenever andwherever you are in need, call me; I will come to you, with my arms fullof wisdom and light to open up yourblocked paths, to untangle your knotsand to be your avenue to God. And allI take with me as I leave is your loveand the millions of memories of allthat we have shared. So fear not norgrieve at my departure, you whom Ihave loved so much, for my roots and
yours are forever intertwined..
VERSE 33A
You can only have one mother,Patient, kind and true;
No other friend in all the world,Will be the same to you.
When other friends forsake you,To mother you will return,For all her loving kindness,She asks nothing in return.As we look upon her picture,Sweet memories we recall,Of a face so full of sunshine,And a smile for one and all.Sweet Jesus, take this message,To our dear mother up above;Tell her how we miss her,And give her all our love.
VERSE 34A VERSE 35A
Miss me but let me go
When I come to the end of the road,And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom filled room,Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little, but not too long,And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,Miss me but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take,And each must go alone,
It’s all part of the Master’s 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 sorrow in doing gooddeeds,
Miss me but let me go.
When tomorrow starts without me andI’m not there to see; If the sun shouldrise and find your eyes, all filled withtears for me;I wish so much you
wouldn’t cry, the way you did today,while thinking of many things, we didn’tget to say. I know how much you loveme, as much as I love you, and each
time that you think of me, I know you’llmiss me too. But when tomorrow startswithout me, please try to understand
that an Angel came and called my name,and took me by the hand, and said myplace was ready, in Heaven far above,and that I’d have to leave behind, allthose I dearly love. But as I turned towalk away, a tear fell from my eye, forall life, I’d always thought, I didn’t wantto die. I had so much to live for, so muchyet to do, it seemed almost impossible,that I was leaving you. If I could reliveyesterday, just even for a while,I’d saygoodbye and kiss you, and maybe seeyou smile. So when tomorrow startswithout me, don’t think we’re far apart,for every time you think of me, I’m
aright here in your heart..
VERSE 36A
The Rose Beyond The Wall
A rose once grew, where all could see,sheltered beside a garden wall
and as the days passed swiftly by,it spread it’s branches, straight and tall.
One day, a beam of light shone through a crevice that had opened wide -
The rose bent gently toward its warmth then passed beyond to the other side.
Now, you who deeply feel it’s loss,be comforted - the rose blooms there,
it’s beauty even greater now,nurtured by God’s own loving care.

you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation;

I’m Free
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free,I’m following the path God laid for me.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 or 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 joy.A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,Ah, yes these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.My life’s been full, I’ve savoured 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 share with me,God wanted me now, He set me free.

The moment that you died,
My heart was torn in two,
One side filled with heartache,
The other died with you.
I often lie awake at night,
When the world is fast asleep,
And take a walk down memory lane,
With tears upon my cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
I do it everyday,
But missing you is heartache,
That never goes away.
I hold you tightly within my heart,
And there you will remain.

What is a Mother?
It takes a mother’s loveto make a house a home.A place to be rememberedno matter where we roam.It takes a mother’s patienceto bring a child up right.
And her courage and her cheerfulnessto make a dark day bright.
It takes a mother’s thoughtfulnessto mend the hearts deep “hurts”.And her skill and her enduranceto mend little socks and shirts.It takes a mother’s kindnessto forgive us when we err.To sympathise in troubleand bow her head in prayer.It takes a mother’s wisdomto recognise our needsand to give us reassurance
by her loving words and deeds.

There comes a time for all of usWhen we must say good-byeBut faith and hope and

The future’s fairer than the pastif only we believe.
Trust in God’s eternal care – so when the Master calls
Let’s say that life is still more fairalthough the curtain falls.
Hold her O Jesus in thy armsAnd let her henceforth be
A messenger of love betweenOur human hearts and thee
When she suffered she told but fewShe did not deserve what she went through
Tired and weary she made no fussBut tried so hard to stay with us
How dearly we loved herAnd prayed she might liveBut Jesus just beckoned And we had to give
We were with you when you closed your eyesWe were with you when you diedWe all knew you were going
When you said your last goodbyes
God gave us strength to bear itAnd courage to fight the blowWhat it has meant to have youGod alone will ever know

Perhaps you sent a lovely card,Or sat quietly in a chair.
Perhaps you sent a funeral spray,If so we saw it there.

Whatever you did to console our hearts,We thank you,
So very much whatever the part.

By appearing in the Grotto ofLourdes, you were pleased to make itprivileged sanctuary, whence you dis-pense your favours, and already manysufferers have obtained the cure oftheir infirmities, both spiritual and cor-poral. I come, therefore, with the mostunbounded confidence, to imploreyour maternal intercession. Obtain, Oloving Mother, the grant of myrequests. Through gratitude for yourfavours, I will endeaver to imitate yourvirtues, that I may one day see yourglory. Amen
VERSE 24ASoftly in the morning,You heard a gentle call,

The smallest part is still with us,And the biggest part with you
For the rest of our livesWe will miss you motherOur secret tears still flow,
Oh, how we really loved you,No one will ever know.
We miss your smile, your joking ways,We miss the things you used to say,And when the old times we do recall,It’s then we miss you most of all.
Look around your garden Lord,And when she turns and smiles,Put your arms around her,And hold her for a while.
VERSE 25A VERSE 26AFootprintsOne night a man had a dream. He dreamedhe was walking along the beach with theLord. Across the sky flashed scenes from hislife. For each scene, he noticed two sets offootprints in the sand; one belonging to him,and the other to the Lord.When the lastscene of his life flashed before him, helooked back at the footprints in the sand. Henoticed that many times along the path of hislife there was only one set of footprints. Healso noticed that it happened at the very low-est and saddest times in his life. this reallybothered him and he questioned the Lordabout it, “ Lord, you said that once I decidedto follow you, you’d walk with me all theway. But I have noticed that during the trou-blesome times in my life, there is only oneset of footprints. I don’t understand whywhen I needed you most you would leaveme.” The Lord replied, “ My precious, pre-cious child, I love you and I would neverleave you. During your times of trial andsuffering, when you see only one set of foot-prints, it was then that I carried you.”
Lord that I may seek to consolerather than to be consoled,
To understand rather than to be under-stood;
To love rather than to be loved.
For it is in giving that we receive,
In self forgetfulness that we find ourtrue selves,
In forgiving that we are raised up tothe everlasting.
VERSE 27AA bouquet of beautiful memories,Sprayed with a million tears,
Wishing God could have spared you,If just for a few more years.It does not take a special day,For us to think of you,
Each Mass we hear, each prayer we say,Is offered up for you.
We cannot bring the old days back,When we were all together,
The family chain is broken now,But memories live forever.It was a sudden parting,Too bitter to forget,
Only those who loved you,Are the ones who will never forget.May he rest in peace, dear Jesus,In Thy heavenly home above,With the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
In His own eternal love.A silent grief that’s in our hearts,
No human eye can trace,For many a broken heart is hid,
Beneath a smiling face.

But memories of you we will always keepAnd those who loved you dearlyAre the ones who won’t forget.No farewells were spokenWe did not say goodbye

Lord make me an instrument of Thy Peace;
where there is hatred, let me sowlove;
where there is injury; pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
It was a sudden parting,To bitter to forget,
Those who loved you dearly,Are the ones who can’t forget.We often sit and think of you,And think of how you died,
To think you could not say goodbye,Before you closed your eyes.
Your life was one of kindly deeds,A helping hand for other’s needs,Sincere and true in heart and mind,Beautiful memories left behind.
The blow was hard, the shock severe,To part with one we loved so dear,Our loss is great, we’ll not complain,But trust in God to meet again.Two tired eyes are sleeping,Two willing hands are still,
The one who worked so hard for us,Is resting at God’s will.
Our family chain is broken,And nothing seems the same,But as God calls us one by one,The links shall join again.
VERSE 18A
Remember Lord Thy servant,In Baptism he died with Christ:
may he also share His ressurection,When Christ will raise our mortal Bodies and make them like
His own in gloryWelcome into Your kingdom
Our departed brothers and sisters and All who have left this world
In your friendship.There we hope to share in your Glorywhen every tear will Be wiped away.
On that dayWe shall see You, our God,
As You are.We shall become like YouAnd praise You for everthrough Christ our Lord,
From whom all good things come.From Eucharistic Prayer III

Alice
May you always walk in sunshine and Gods
love around you flow, for the happiness you
gave to us, no-one will ever know. It broke our
hearts to lose you, but you
did not go alone, for apart
of us went with you the
day God called you home.
A million times we’ve
needed you, a million
times we cried.
If love could only
have saved you, you
never would have died.
Gone from our home that smiling face,The happy cheerful ways,
The heart that won so many friends,In bygone happy days
Lonely is the home without you,Life to us is not the same;
All the world would be like Heaven,If we could have you back again.In dreams we see her smiling face,And kiss her tender brow,
But in our aching hearts we know,We have no mother now.
Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s
love commits me here,ever this day be at my side,
to light and guard to rule and guide.
Amen.

His Journey’s Just Begun
Don’t think of him as gone away,His journey’s just begun.Life holds so many facets,This earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting,From the sorrows and the tears,In a place of warmth and comfort,Where there are no days and years.Think how he must be wishing,That we could know today,How nothing but our sadness,
Can really pass away.And think of him as living,
In the hearts of those he touched…For nothing loved is ever lost – And he was loved so very much.
She never failed to do her best,Her heart was true and tender,
She worked, and toiled for those she loved,And left them to remember.
We sat beside your bedsideOur hearts were crushed and soreWe did our duty to the end‘til we could do no more.
In tears we watched you sinkingWe watched you fade away
And though our hearts were breakingWe knew you could not stay.
You left behind some aching heartsThat you loved most sincereWe never shall and never willForget you, mother dear.

O Father in your great mercy acceptour prayer that the gates of paradisemay be opened for your servant. Inour turn may we too be comforted by the words of faith until we greetChrist in glory and are united with
you and our departed.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen
There is a home that lies beyond – And past it’s golden door
Awaits the one who’s now awayNot lost – just gone before.
And in that home that lies beyondThe Master will prepare
A place for you, and when He callsYou’ll meet your loved one there
VERSE 6A
One fervent Hail Mary with love and thought said,is better than volumesof prayers poorly read.
If time and one’s dutiesprevent a long prayer,Just say one Hail MaryWith fervour and care.
The Golden Hail Marywhich from the heart springs,the greatest of blessingsfrom Mary it brings.
And we will never know‘Til before Mary’s throne,how that daily Hail Marybrought us to her home
VERSE 7A VERSE 8A
Hail Mary, full of Grace,
The Lord is with Thee,Blessed art ThouAmong women,
And blessed is the fruitOf Thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary,Mother of God,Pray for us sinners
now and at the hour of Our death. Amen.
I’d like the memory of meto be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done.
I’d like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways,of happy times and laughing times
and bright and sunny days.
I’d like the tears of those who grieve,to dry before the sun,
of happy memories that I leave when life is done.
VERSE 9AWhen I leave
I am about to leave; my last breathdoes not say “goodbye” for my loveof you is truly timeless. I leave myselfnot to the undertaker and the grave, but to your memory with love.
I leave my thoughts, my laughter, mydreams to you whom I have treasured.I give you what no thief can steal, thememories of our times together: thetender, love-filled moments, the successes we have shared, the hardtimes that brought us closer togetherand the roads we have walked side byside. I also leave you a solemn prom-ise that after I am home in the bosomof God, I will still be present in thecommunion of Saints, whenever andwherever you are in need, call me: Iwill come to you, with my arms fullof wisdom and light to open up yourblocked paths, to untangle your knots
and to be your avenue to God.

God looked around His gardenAnd found an empty space,
He then looked down upon the earth,And saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful,He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,He knew you were in pain,He knew that you would neverGet well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough,And the hills were hard to climb.So He closed your weary eyelids,And whispered “Peace be Thine”.It broke our hearts to lose you,But you didnt go alone,
For part of us went with youThe day God called you home.
Those who die in grace go no further from us than God and God is very near.

intercession, was left unaided.Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto Thee, O Virgin ofVirgins my Mother; to Thee I come; before Thee I stand;sinful and sorrowful. O
Mother of the Word incarnatedespise not my petitions, butin Thy clemency hear andanswer me. Amen.

And there you

When tomorrow starts without me,And I’m not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn’t cry,The way you did today,
While thinking of many things,We didn’t get to say.
I know how much you love me,As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,I know you’ll miss me too,
But when tomorrow starts without me,Please try to understand,
That an Angel came and called my name,And took me by the hand,And said my place was ready,In Heaven far above,
And that I’d have to leave behind,All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,A tear fell from my eye,
For all life, I’d always thought, I didn’t want to die.
I had so much to live for, so much yet to do,It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you.If I could relive yesterday, Just even for a while,
I’d say goodbye and kiss you,And maybe see you smile.
So when tomorrow starts without me,Don’t think we’re far apart,For every time you think of me,I’m right here in your heart..
