Though we let you go to your rest, our hearts are full of sadness. To see you suffer, without being able to help was what gave us the greatest pain.

In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night... you-- only you-- will have stars that can laugh!

Do not weep. I have beaten it, I am freed from my pain, - rather let me come to you now and then in the silence.

Father, thy will be done...........

You busied yourself with caring, sometimes indeed beyond your strength. So now kind soul rest in peace, God will sooth our pain.

By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered,
End confidently waiting come what may,
we know that God is with us night and morning,
and never fails to greet us each new day.

Striven, aspired, but lost..

When he came to the end of his strength it was not death, it was release.

A mother’s heart has stopped beating.

The most precious power a person has is the trace his love has left behind in our hearts.

We thank you for everything you have done for us. We believe you have gone on the way back to the Father.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; they thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

O Lord into your hands may our beginning and our end, may everything be given.

I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep.

One day there’ll be no tomorrow, one day there’ll begin a “today” which will never end: eternity.

For whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: they people shall be my people, and thy God my God.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three, but the greatest of these is charity

Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.

You should neither laugh at the world nor weep for it, but embrace it.

Whoever lives in the memory of his love is not dead, merely distant. Only dead is he who has been forgotten.
