Master Jim Dunn's Mother May 3, 2007

Master Jidun, I hope that you may find strength in her life and in her eternal presence through the force, and that you may smile in the warmth of that knowledge. She will be with you for all eternity.

DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP
By Mary E. Frye

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 softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain.
I am the fields of ripening grain.

I am in the morning hush.
I am in the graceful rush
of beautiful birds in circling flight.
I am the star shine of the night.

I am in the flowers that bloom;
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing;
I am in each lovely thing.

Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there; I did not die.<br><br>Post edited by: Br. John, at: 2007/05/04 00:18

Jim, my heart goes out to you and your family, I can't begin to imagine what you are going through. If I may, I recommend celebrating her life, as a way to help you grieve her passing. If thier is anything we can help with, please let us know.

here are the lyrics to song i wrote while thinking about this time in Jim's life. It applies to all loved ones who pass away.

(their name's) Song

I remember every word, your innocent smile.
the way you used to laugh, just like a little child
when the wind brushes me skin, i feel you touching me
i turn around to hold you, but dark is all i see

I'm feeling so much sadness, the sun has ceased to rise
i'm trying to see the light, through the tears in my eyes.
If i ever smile again, it will be for you
when i start to laugh again, i know you'll be laughing to
when the sun touches my face, i'll know it's you and smile,
and hold you in my mind, even for a little while.

They keep saying, you've gone to a better place
but how can it be better, if i can't see your face?
Heaven seems further away with each passing day
i sit and remeber, the times we spent together.

I'm feeling so much sadness, the sun has ceased to rise
i'm trying to see the light, through the tears in my eyes
if i ever smile again, it will be for you
when i start to laugh again, i know you'll be laughing to.
whe n the sun touches my face, i'll know it's you and smile.
and hold you in my mind, even for a little while.

one day i'll know the Angel's heard my plea
that's when i'll feel you so close to me....
then Heaven won't seem so far away
as i sit and remember all the times we spent together......

i will post the mp3 file if you wish.

I'm sorry for your loss Master Jim, My thoughts and prayers are wtih you and yours.

I am sincerely sorry for your loss, Jim. May your mother find peace in the Force.

My heart goes out to you in your time of loss. I lost my mother at the age of 10 (mine, not hers) and even though I did not have the opportunity to get to know mine as well as you knew yours, I can only imagine the pain. Please know that I am here for you and completely understand what you must be feeling.
