Laughter to kiss your lips,

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
love leaves a memory no one can steal.
- From a headstone in Ireland

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.

A man's good name is his best monument.
- from an old churchyard at Lockerbie, Scotland

Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.
- Lao Tzu

Death is not extinguishing the light;
it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
- Rabindranath Tagore

Parting is all we know of heaven, and all we need of hell.
- Emily Dickinson

This is my wish for you:
Comfort on difficult days,
Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
Laughter to kiss your lips,
Sunsets to warm your heart,
Hugs when spirits sag,
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Friendships to brighten your being,
Faith so that you can believe,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
Love to complete your life.
