Do not stand at my grave and weep
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.
Mary Frye – 1932

You will always be a hero
Dear Donald,
For a project at Gridley High School in Gridley, IL, we as students have the opportunity to give credit where it is due. As a soldier in Vietnam, you gave your life for your country. You gave up all your possessions and loved ones to fight for what you believed in, even when it meant the possibility of losing your life. You have a lot of respect from this generation and those to come. Thank you for all you did during your life and God bless you.
Respectfully,
Ashley
