Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glint on the snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake the morning hush I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight, I am the soft starlight at night,
Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there- I do not sleep.
A funeral service will take place at the Keefe Funeral Home, Wednesday, April 14th at 10:30 AM.
Services will conclude with burial at Cambridge Cemetery, Cambridge.
