Here is a poem I recieved recently and I would like to share it with Robin's family and friends: I'M FREE 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 If my parting has left a void Then fill it with remembered joy A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss Ah yes, these things too I will miss Be not burdened with times of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow My life's been full, I've savored much Good friends, good times,a family's touch Perhaps my time seemed all too brief Lift up your hearts and share with me I'm with God now, I've been set free.

I share in your sadness - Rich, Jeannie, Rosie, Robert, Ronald, Rhys. God bless you all.
