Do not weep for me
I live the life I chose
I loved, I laughed, I cried
I would have lived longer
If I had to choose
But the choice was not mine
So miss me, but do not cry for me
Remember that life never ends and
That I shall live forever in your heart.

Thank you for being a wonderful husband!
I love you!
Judy
