            TURN AGAIN TO LIFE

            If I should die and leave you here a while,
            Be not like others, sore undone, who keep
            Long vigil by the silent dust and weep.
            For my sake turn again to life and smile,
            Nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do
            That which will comfort other souls than thine
            Complete these dear unfinished tasks of mine,
            And I, perchance, may therein comfort you.

            There he lay


            There he lay, hands on his lap
            Nearly smiling, taking a heavenly nap
            Millions of flowers are along the way
            They have come to brighten my day
            The wind is whistling a nice slow tune
            And animals are singing:
            "You're not alone
            This is your new home."

            A MILLION TIMES WE'VE NEEDED YOU


            A million times we've needed you
            A million times we've cried.
            If love alone could have saved you
            You never would have died.
            In life we loved you dearly
            In death we love you still.
            In our hearts we hold a memory
            No one else can fill.
            It broke our hearts to let you go
            But you did not go alone.
            For part of us went with you
            The day God took you home.

            We love you Hershell A.Houchens
