I have been preparing the words I want to be read at my husband's funeral
tomorrow. John died last week after a lengthy battle with Parkinson's
disease and Dementia. When I read the words of this poem, I imagined him
being able to leave his body and enjoy the sea that he loved so much. Life
was not kind to him but I felt this poem showed the kindness that his death
may bring.l Thank you Sara - I searched long and hard.
