Angela(Angie) February 23rd 1944--September 7th 2014

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there-I do not sleep.
I am the thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints in snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle Autumn rain.
As you awake with morning's hush
I am swift-up-flinging rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft star-shine at night.
Do not stand by my grave and cry.
I am not there-I did not die.

My darling cousin Angie,so glad I was able to spend those last precious hours with you and the family.
You tried so hard to fight Myeloma,but after a Summer of remission,when you could enjoy life again,it came back with a vengeance.
Now,at last,you're free from pain,and flying with the butterflies.
Rest In Peace,Love XXXXXX.
