When my younger brother, Paul, died at 50 unexpectedly, this poem was
an inspiration to my mother.  I thought it was a little simplistic  when I 
firt
read it, but I've come to find it worthwhile:
 
 
 
 
"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 that  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 of  heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good  deeds
Miss me but let me go. Author:  AnonymousDavid  Strang.
