To the Cumpston/Jamison family,
My heart goes out to each and every one of you for the loss your family has suffered over the last few weeks. Take comfort in knowing that angels carried Mary home to her Heavenly Father where there's only peace and no pain, where she will be waiting for you with open arms to dance along the golden streets.
She is not far, you will never be apart forever she will live within your heart.Blessed are those of us who knew her, she was truly a great person.

Love always,Debbie(Lias)Cookson

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep.

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 on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die.
