In Loving Memory of
Devin Anne Ashcroft

January 7, 1978- August 29, 2010
"Do not stand at my grave and weep,

I am not there, I do not sleep.


I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!"

A Friend

My sincerest condolences to the family and friends of Devin. Psalms 65:2 states that God is the Hearer of all prayers. At this time we could all use this comfort.
