Don't weep at my grave,

for I am not there,

I've a date with a

butterfly to dance in the air.

I'll be singing in the

sunshine, wild and free

playing tag with the wind

while I am waiting for thee.

Maureen will be deeply missed by all who knew her and loved her. She will be forever in our hearts and in our minds.
