My condolences on your loss; may you find the strength to live your life as Denise would like you to do.
 
Jim, our heartfelt condolences go out to you. We hope you are coping as best you can at this difficult time. Here are a couple of poems for you and all of those close to Denise:

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
and whispered
"Come to Me".

With tearful eyes
we watched you,
And saw you pass away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.

A golden heart
stopped beating,
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts
to prove to us,
He only takes the best.

To Those I Love:

When I am gone, just release me,
Let me go – so I can move into my afterglow.
You mustn’t tie me down with your tears;
Let’s be happy that we had so many years.
I gave you my love, you can only guess how much you gave me in happiness.
I thank you for the love you each have shown, but now it’s time I traveled on alone.
So grieve for me awhile, if grieve you must, then let your grief be comforted with trust.
It’s only for a while that we must part, so bless the memories within your heart.
And then, when you must come this way alone, I’ll greet you with a smile
and a “Welcome Home”.
