I’m Free

Don’t grieve for me now I’m free,

I’m following the path God laid for me.

I took His hand when I heard Him call,

I 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 close of day.

If my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with remembered joy.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,

Ah, yes these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life’s been full, I’ve savoured 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 up your hearts and share with me,

God wanted me now, He set me free.

Pat will always be remembered by his wife Mary, daughters Doreen and Venora, Doreen’s partner Paul, grandchildren Kye, Ryan, Jayden and Kali-Mae, sisters and brother Mary, Jamsie and Judy, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, extended family, neighbours and friends.
