ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I ' M FREE Don ' t grieve for me, for now I ' m free. I ' m following the path God has laid you see, 1 took His hand when 1 heard him call. 1 turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day. To laugh, to love, to work, or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I found that peace at the close of the day. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared a laugh, a kiss, oh yes, these things 1, too, will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life ' s been full, savored much, Good friends, good times, a Loved one ' s touch. Perhaps, my time seemed all too brief. Don ' t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift us your hearts and peace to thee . . . God wanted me now, He set me FREE!!!!!!!!!!! Humbly submitted .
