“When we give up our bodies as a place to live, we move into people’s hearts as a permanent place to dwell.”
Death is nothing at all I have only slipped away into the next room I am I and you are you Whatever we were to each other That we still are
Call me by my old familiar name speak to me in the easy way which you always used Put no difference in your tone Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we always enjoyed together Play, smile, think of me, pray for me Let my name be ever the household word that it always was Let it be spoken without effect without the ghost of a shadow on it
Life means all that it ever meant It is the same as it ever was there is absolutely unbroken continuity What is death but a negligible accident?
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you at an interval somewhere very near just around the corner
All is well”
Henry Scott Holland 1847-1918 Canon of St. Paul’s Cathedral
