A Celebration of the Life of A Letter From Heaven Highland Cathedral Welcome When tomorrow starts without me, And I m not here to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me. I wish so much you wouldn t cry, The way you did today, While thinking of the many things, We did not get to say. I know how much you love me, As much as I love you, Each time that you think of me, I know you will miss me too. When tomorrow starts with out me, don t think we re far apart, for every time you think of me, I m right there in your heart. Scripture Prayer Amazing Grace Words of Comfort & Message Closing Prayer Going Home The family thanks the many friends and relatives who have offered their love and support.
Twenty-Third Psalm The Lord is my Shepherd: I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil: my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
