Dorathy Grace Farnen

A love letter from my wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Dorathy Grace Farnen, who went to be with the Lord one year ago today, February 21, 2007.

(This was found in her bible the day she was buried)To my One and Only Love, Vince, my husband, and to my precious and beloved children, Sandy, Cheri, Cindy, Debby, and Tammy,When I must leave you for a little whilePlease do not grieve and shed wild tearsAnd hug your sorrow to you through the yearsBut start out bravely with a gallant smile.And for my sake and in my nameLive 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 cheerAnd I in turn will comfort you and hold you near, my dear ones.And never never be afraid to die -I'm waiting for you in the sky!I love you all so very much.You have been such wonderful children all your lives. Kiss each other and all your families, too, because I love them very much! With God, our Father, we will all be someday, in our heavenly home!
