REMEMBER ME
Read out by Richard at dads funeral
Speak of me as you have always done,
Remember the good times, laughter and fun.
Share the happy memories we’ve made,
Do not let them wither or fade.
I’ll be with you in the summer’s sun,
And when the winds chill has come.
I’ll be the voice that whispers in the breeze,
I’m peaceful now, put your mind at ease.
I’ve rested my eyes and gone to sleep,
But memories we’ve shared, are yours to keep.
Sometimes our final days, maybe a test,
But remember me, when I’m at my best.
Although things may not be the same,
Don’t be afraid to use my name.
Let your sorrow last for just a while,
Comfort each other and try to smile.
I’ve lived a life full of joy and fun.
Live on now, make me proud of what you’ll become.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.

Grandad, you have been an amazing person to have in both of our lives. It’s horrible to think we won’t be able to see you any more. You have lovingly accepted Sophie into the family which I know she deeply appreciates and we will cherish the memories of our last Christmas together as a family. We cannot thank you enough and we’ll miss you dearly.

Dad, you and Mum will be in our thoughts always. We have so many happy memories to recall. I know you would have been proud of your family yesterday as you always were. Miss you.
