Marcus Cortez Obituary

Published by Cypress Lawn Funeral Home & Memorial Park on Feb. 19, 2014.
WHEN I MUST LEAVE YOU When I must leave you for a little while Please do not grieve and shed wild tears And hug your sorrow to you through the years But start out bravely with a gallant smile; And for my sake and in my name Live on and do all things the same; Feed not your loneliness on empty days, But fill each waking hour in useful ways, reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near; And never, never be afraid to die, For I am waiting for you in the sky!
