I will miss your steadfast presence in my world Jill. I can barely remember a time when we Flynn's didn't have The Foster's in our lives and now we have lost 50% of them. I will always remember you for your kindness, humour, clarity of right and wrong and for often 'not getting' the punch line of a joke! Thank you for a very dear friendship Jill, I will miss you in many ways. Until we meet again .... Sheelagh Flynn, Vancouver, Canada

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free;
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard Him call;
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss;
Ah yes, these things, I too, will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow;
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief;
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me;
God wanted me now, He set me free.
