It was a sad day, we were gathered all around You were laying on the bed, in your favorite evening gown You made me who I am, and who I always will stay Touched so many lives, and I miss you to this day It's hard to be without you, but I'll never say goodbye I know you were suffering, and now you're learned to fly Truly you are still with us, guiding us where we should go I wish you were still with us, missing you more than anyone can know When the rain falls from the clouds, I can almost see you there Every time I am reminded to remain self aware So glad to have known you, to have something to remember Your voice echoes out, and I hear you in September
