My husband bought me a scroll with this poem on it I just wanted to share with everyone it does not take the pain away but it does help for a little while at least it does for me.

Miss Me, But Let Me Go.

When I come to the end of the road,
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in gloom-filled rooms,
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little--but not too long,
And not with your head bowed low;
Remember the love that we once shared
Miss me--but let me go.
For this is a journey that we all must take,
And each must go alone.
It's all a part of the Master's plan,
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.
Miss me - but let me go.

This was the poem that we put at the back of my dad's funeral pamphlet that was handed out in church.  It's beautiful.
