	Thank you Lilybids, I meant to nudge the thread and got sidetracked so forgot. I love your avatar, Lily of the Valley were my late Mums favourite flowers. All mine have disappeared from my tub and my garden, I had some pale pink ones but they've gone too. Such lovely flowers and a lovely perfume Lizxx

	Afterglow- Helen Lowrie Marshall I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one. I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when day is done. I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, Of happy times and laughing times and of bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun Of happy memories I leave behind when day is done.

	Thank You Liz. She has been very unwell for a long time now so her release is a blessing albeit a very sad one . Cancer is a terrible illness to bear but she is now at peace.

Member Since: May 2005 Posts: 36 Send Message	This was read at my husband's funeral last year and it still brings comfort to me I hope it will help others Farewell My Friends It was beautiful As long as it lasted The journey of my life. I have no regrets Whatsoever said The pain I'll leave behind. Those dear hearts Who love and care... And the string pulling At the heart and soul... The strong arms That held me up When my own strength Let me down. At the turning of my life I came across Good friends, Friends who stood by me Even when time raced me by- Farewell, farewell My friends I smile and Bid you goodbye. No, shed no tears For I need them not All I need is your smile. If you feel sad Do think of me For that's what I'll like When you live in the hearts Of those you love Remember then You never die. Rabindranath Tagore ( 1861 - 1941)

Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 766 Send Message	Our lives go on without you But nothing is the same We have to hide our heartache When someone speaks your name Sad are the hearts that love you Silent are the tears that fall Living without you is the hardest part of all You did so many things for us Your heart was so kind and true And when we needed someone We could always count on you The special years will not return When we are all together But with the love in our hearts You walk with us forever. Sharing this from a posting on facebook today, from one of my granddaughters on the 4th anniversary on the loss of their mum <3

	Reading through the threads tonight after my grandmas funeral two days ago. The poem Gwyn in Kent put on page 14 Look For Me in Rainbows was the poem my cousin read out. A rainbow appeared in the sky just after my grandma died.

	Hello Tawny, my sympathy on your sad loss. Saying goodbye to your Grandmother must have been very emotional for you. I think appropriate verses can be so comforting, as we have seen from this thread. Please keep adding, folks Lizxx
