Online friends come and go, some just disappear without a word and you wonder what became of them. But perhaps the hardest thing to accept is the death of a dear friend that you have been close to for a long time.
My lovely friend Daphne passed away October 24 1999 after a long battle
with cancer. Through the 18 months I knew her, she always had a wonderful
positive outlook on life, never complaining. She was a wonderful cheery
friend who I looked forward to 'talking' with daily.
Daphne, may you always be surrounded with rainbows, butterflies and
yes..even roses:-) <<{:}}

Friend, please don't mourn
for me
I'm still here, though you
don't see.
I'm right by your side each
night and day
and within your heart I
long to stay.
My body is gone but I'm always
near.
I'm everything you feel,
see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I'll
never depart
as long as you keep me alive
in your heart.
I'll never wander out of
your sight-
I'm the brightest star on
a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your
reach-
I'm the warm moist sand
when you're at the beach.
I'm the colorful leaves when
fall comes around
and the pure white snow
that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers
of which you're so fond,
The clear cool water in
a quiet pond.
I'm the first bright blossom
you'll see in the spring,
The first warm raindrop
that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light
when the sun starts to shine,
and you'll see that the
face in the moon is mine.
When you start thinking there's
no one to love you,
you can talk to me through
the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer through
the leaves on the trees,
and you'll feel my presence
in the soft summer breeze.
I'm the hot salty tears that
flow when you weep
and the beautiful dreams
that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on
a baby's face.
Just look for me, friend,
I'm everyplace!
This was sent to me by another lady who was touched by Daphne. Thanks Sue!
