I'd like to leave an after glow of smiles when life is done. I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, Of happy times and laughing times And bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve To dry before the sun, Of happy memories that I leave when life is done. **************************** Tom chose cremation. His remains are with family. A late summer memorial gathering will be planned. God speed my love. You will be greatly missed.
