 "When I must leave you for a 

 little while, please do not grieve 

 and shed wild tears and hug 

 your sorrow to you through the 

 years, but start out bravely with 

 a gallant smile; and for my sake 

 and in my name live on and do 

 all things the same. Feed not 

 your loneliness on empty days,

 but fill each waking hour in 

 useful ways. Reach out your 

 hand in comfort and in cheer 

 and I in turn will comfort you 

 and hold you near; and never,

 never be afraid to die, for I am

 waiting for you in the sky!"
