I hope this beautiful poem and all your memories brings you comfort during the coming days.
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 glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

Dear Loved ones of Beth,
I will never forget your sweet Mom, Grandma, friend. She was truely one of a kind. KIND being the true nature of her personality. As I am sure you already knew. I worked with Beth at Meals on Wheels. She was ALWAYS upbeat and sweet. Never far from her friend Bonnie Price. They were two of a kind and who knows what mischeif they will get into up there in heaven together. I pray for you all as I know the hole she has left in your hearts, and lives. Remember thou she is in His arms, and not suffering the ills of this world any longer. I was so happy to see her and her son Don awhile back at Martin’s grocery shopping. She lit up like a Christmas tree when she saw me. It is such a good memory. I will relive that memory until I see her again!!! My deepest sympathies on your loss of such BEAUTIFUL soul!!!! Love, Machele Varady
