Dear Venessa,

During this sad time I thought that you should know that when I think about your father, all I can do is smile. He brought joy to many people. He will be missed.

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 glints of snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain: I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifing rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there: I did not die.
