We’ve gathered here today to celebrate

The life of one so dearly departed.

We laugh, we cry, we weep, we remember

The times we spent with them. But in the end,

Who cares? The world still turns, flowers still bloom.

Life goes on. And yet, there will always be

Some sort of impact, and yet, life goes on.

Nothing can ever change the flow of time,

This pre-destined path set out for us.

But that stops no one. We thrive, despite the

Circumstances laid out for us. We love,

We breathe, we smile, we learn, we laugh, we thrive,

Knowing death is unavoidable. Live

While we can. Mors certa, hora incerta.
