To the Harris Family: I was deeply saddened by the passing of your loved one and my friend. You have my most sincere sympathy. I hope my caring will make your sorrow somewhat easier to bear. May these words of sympathy help somehow to convey the warmth and understanding in my thoughts of each of you today.
Remember Me This Way
When I come to the end of my journey
And I travel my last weary mile,
Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned
And remember only the smile.
Forget unkind words I have spoken;
Remember some good I have done.
Forget that I ever had heartache
And remember I've had loads of fun
Forget that I've stumbled and blundered
And sometimes fell by the way.
Remember I have fought some hard battles
And won, ere the close of the day.
Then forget to grieve for my going,
I would not have you sad for a day,
But in summer just gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay,
And come in the shade of evening
When the sun paints the sky in the west
Stand for a few moments beside me
And remember only my best.
Love and prayers from a former PM Coworker.
