I would dearly love to thank each and every one of you individually. But will not be able to do that just yet. I am deeply moved by all the support, kind words, love, understanding, hugs and oh, so much more. I am taking a lot of strain, but I am coping. Dad would not have wanted it any other way.
I would like to share the details of his passing and share my feelings since it has happened but will do this on the grief board. I am designing the order of service pamphlets and printing them so will finish this first before posting.
The memorial service (Dad insists he doesn't "do" funerals) is on Monday and I am saving what's left of my strength for that. I will sing for him at the service.
This is what I am singing.
Fly
Fly, fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The sofest could, the whitest dove
Upon the wind of heaven's love
Past the planet and the stars
Leave this lonely world of ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again.Fly, fly precious one
Your endless journey has bgun
Take your gentle happiness
Far too beautiful for this
Cross over to the other shore
There is peace forever more
But hold this memory bittersweet
Until we meet.Fly, fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear
Your heart is pure, your soul is free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise, the sun will set
But I won't forgetFly, fly little wing
Fly where only angels sing
Fly away, the time is right
Go now, find the light.
I know he will enjoy listening to me. Now I'm feeling a bit shaky and emotional and I am crying again, and I have to be strong to sing this for him. My musical talent came from him and this will be my gift of thanks and love. I said goodbye, but now I am saying, till we meet again.Thank you again all my friends. I know now, that you all are a part of my life I could not do without.
I will let you know when I have posted on grief.
Love to you all
Sabrina
