Unfortunatelymy Auntie died on Tuesday and I am trying to help my mum plan the funeral. Does anyone know where I can find some special words on the internet to put on the front of her funeral sheet?
Thanks

I'M FREE
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard him call;
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared a laugh, a kiss;
Ah yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief;
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.

I don't believe in an afterlife, but this is still one of my favorites -
Death is nothing at all
I have only slipped away into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other
That we are still
Call me by my old familiar name
Speak to me in the easy way you always used
Put no difference into your tone
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed
At the little jokes we always enjoyed together
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was
Let it be spoken without effort
Without the ghost of a shadow in it
Life means all that it ever meant
It is the same as it ever was
There is absolute unbroken continuity
What is death but a negligible accident?
Why should I be out of mind
Because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you for an interval
Somewhere very near
Just around the corner
All is well.
Nothing is past; nothing is lost
One brief moment and all will be as it was before
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again
****************
My thoughts are with you and your family. I'm sorry for your loss.

there are many places on the net you can find this just do a general search,however i would suggest as hard as it may be sitting on your own one night and search your heart and sole,think of things you did or did not get to do together,you can use somones words but i think your own are better it carrys more meaning with it,and will help you with your feelings for closure.it really works.TRUST ME.

david son was sick and he stayed for 7 days without eating drinking or having a bath and cried to God to save the live of that child but later on the child died david rose and took a bath ,wore his robe then ate and drunk for he knew it was the will of God.
that person is not special as you may try to say because she is nothing but a died body but for the respect you HAD for her just quote (WE WILL MISS YOU BIG REST IN PEACE)

your heart!
There is no one to impress. You've got nothing to prove.
Let it be real!
