Dear Jackie, Catherine and Robert,

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the times that once we shared
Miss me, but let me go

For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone
It's all a part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to home

So when you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds
Miss me but let me go

With my deepest sympathies and love,
Geoffrey Kelly
