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 diamond glints upon the snow.
I am sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's 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 star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die.
His grandson Tyler said, "God hasn't seen grandpa since he was born. He missed him because he was a good man. He wanted him back in Heaven."
Memories of his kindness will remain with his family and countless friends whose lives he touched.
