Don't stand at my grave and weep, for I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you waken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush. Of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not! Stand at my rave and cry. I am not there; I did not die. I'm at the great tree stand in Heaven with my savior looking out over the river of life! I'm home! -Author unknown- Trinity Memorial Centers Funeral Home (423-723-8177) is honored to serve the Taylor family.
