“ To my dearest family, some things I’d like to say.

Though first of all to let you know I arrived OK.

I’m writing this from heaven, here I dwell with Spirit above.

Here there’s no more tears of sadness. here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy because I am out of sight.

Remember I am with you every morning, noon and night.”
