My mother's brother Raymond's wife Jeanette Marquis died yesterday, in her mid-ninety's. A full life lived does not lessen the sorrow of losing her....but the memories live on with a smile for a life well lived.
Light a Candle

Light a candle, it'll help to remind you
Of your time together on earth,
and as the flame flickers, remember
Her kindness, her goodness, her worth.
So, glow little candle, that briefly,
You'll know that her memory can't die,
As you see her sweet face in the glowing,
Shed a tear, say a prayer, then goodbye.
