Her wish to those she loved:
While I am gone release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You mustnt tie yourself to me with tears. Be happy that we had so many beautiful years. I gave to you my love. You can only guess how much you gave to me in happiness. I thank you for the love you each have shown. But now its time I traveled on alone. To grieve for me a while
you must, Then let your grief be comforted by trust. Its only a while that we must part, to bless the memories within your heart. I wont be far away for life goes on, so if you need me, call and I will come. Though you cant see or touch me, Ill be near. And if you listen with your heart, youll hear all my love around you soft and clear. And then when you must come this way alone, Ill greet you with a smile and say, Welcome Home
