You filled our lives with a profound sense of goodness.

Your spontaneous smile and innate warmth would fill an entire room with light

and would make everyone feel welcomed and accepted.

We have been blessed to have known you so intimately

and our mourning for your passing is simultaneously accompanied

by a sense of gratitude for the blessings you bestowed upon us.

 

We shall find living without you difficult,

but in time we know that mourning will be replaced

by your enduring presence in our hearts,

and your spirit will drive us onwards

to multiply the goodness and warmth

that you always displayed toward others.

 

May the good Lord grant you eternal rest,

and may perpetual light shine upon you.
