Aunt Dorothy, I will never forget your sweet smile, kind heart, and selfless love for others. My father was fortunate to have you as his older sister. You will be missed.

Fly, Fly precious one. Your endless journey has begun. Take your gentle happiness, far too beautiful for this.
Cross over to the other shore, there is peace forever more. But hold this memory bittersweet.. until we meet.
Above the universe you'll climb, on beyond the hands of time. The moon will rise, the sun will set...But I won't forget.
Fly, fly little wing. Fly where only angels sing. Fly away, the time is right....Go now and find the light.
