This light shines
as a symbol of lives
lovingly remembered.

Although not seen
we know you are here
Smiling down, watching,
always keeping near
3
The tears in my eyes
I can wipe away,
The ache in my heart
Will always stay.

your memory we treasure
Loving you always
forgetting you never

Your life was a blessing,
Your memory a treasure.
You are loved beyond words,
 And missed beyond measure.

Although not seen
we know you are here
Smiling down, watching,
always keeping near
7
Treasured in our hearts
you'll stay,
until we meet again someday.
8
If teardrops could build a stairway
and memory a lane,
We’d walk the long road to reach,
and bring you home again.

Although you can't be
here with me
We're truly not apart,
Until the final breath I take
You'll be living in my heart.

Everyday in some small way,
memories of you come our way,

with memories that will always last

though you have passed away.
And those who loved you dearly
are thinking of you today.

No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye
you were gone before we knew it,
And only God can tell us why.
17
Loved with a love beyond telling,
Missed with a grief beyond all tears.
18
Those we love don't go away
they walk beside us every day,
unseen, unheard, but always near,
still loved, still missed, and very dear

Missed with a grief beyond all tears

Wherever I go, whatever I do,
Memories keep me near to you.

So we will never really be parted,
The bond between us is too deep

The Lord watch between
thee and me,
while we are absent one
from the other

Mom, we treasure still,
with love sincere,
Beautiful memories of one so dear.
25
A silent thought, a secret tear,
keeps your memory ever dear.

26
Your smile has gone forever,
and your hand we cannot touch,
we have so many memories,
of you we loved so much.

They say memories are golden,
Well, maybe that is true,
But we never wanted memories,
we only wanted you
28
Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.

We miss you in so many ways,
We miss the things you used to say,
And when old times we do recall,
It’s then we miss you most of all.

For always they will be,
Loved, remembered, treasured,
Always in our memory.

A silent thought, a secret tear,
Keeps your memory ever dear,
God took you home, it was his will,
But in our hearts, you live still.
 
32
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you
and whispered, "Come to Me".
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands now rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
 He only takes the best.
 
33
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you,
and whispered, "Come to Me".
With tearful eyes we watched you,
we watched you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands now rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.
 
34
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone. 
For part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories,
your love is still our guide.
And though we cannot see you,
you are always by our side.
Our family chain is broken
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.
35
Little did we know that morning
 God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly,
in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone. 
For part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
36
Those we love remain with us
for love itself lives on
Cherished memories never fade
because one loved is gone
Those we love can never be
more than a thought apart
For as long as there is a memory
they live on in our heart
37
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 a diamond glint of snow. 
I am the sunlight on ripened grain. 
I am the gentle autumn rain. 
When you awake in the morning hush, 
I am the swift uplifting rush 
of quiet birds in circling flight. 
I am the soft star shine at night. 
Do not stand by my grave and cry 
I am not there... 
I did not die.
 
38
For those who are in our hearts on
our Wedding Day
 and Always
bless us in spirit as we begin our
new life together
39
Although we can’t see you
We know you are here
Smiling down
Watching over us
As we say “I Do”
Forever in our hearts
Forever in our lives
And so we say our vows
In loving memory of you
40
Sadly missed along life's way,
Quietly remembered every day,
No longer in our life to share,
But in our hearts he's always there
41
Loving you is easy,
We do it every day,
Missing you is a heartache,
That never goes away.
42
Thank you for loving and sharing,
For giving and for caring,
God bless you and keep you,
Until we meet again
43
If we could have one lifetime wish,
One dream that could come true,
We'd ask with all our hearts,
For yesterday and you
44
Your touch, your smile,
Was always so tender,
Today, tomorrow,
We will always remember
45
We miss you in so many ways,
We miss things you used to say,
And when old times we do recall,
It’s then we miss you most of all

Nothing can ever take away,
The love a heart holds dear;
Fond memories linger every day,
Remembrance keeps you near
47
They say memories are golden,
Well, maybe that is true,
But we never wanted memories,
We only wanted you
48
I cannot halt the hand of time,
Or live again the past,
Within my heart are memories,
That will forever last
49
When ties of love are broken,
And loved ones have to part,
It leaves a wound that never heals,
In ever-aching heart
50
Gone are the days we used to share,
But in our hearts you are always there,
The gates of memory will never close,
We miss you more than anyone knows,
With tender love and deep regret,
We who love you will never forget
51
It's hard to believe
You are no longer here,
We think of you,
You feel so near,
In some small way, every single day,
Memories of you come our way
52
Memory is a lovely lane, Where hearts are ever true, A lane I often travel down, Because it leads to you
