The Dunks family would like to extend a very special Thank You to the sta ff of Heartland Hospice and to Dr. Ken Kubsch for all of their compassio n, care, and kindness. I'm Free Don't grieve for me for now I'm free. I'm following the path God laid f or me. I took God's hand when I heard the call; I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I found that place at the close of d ay. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy. A love shared, a laugh, a kiss. Ah yes these things, I too, will miss. Be not burdened with the times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomor row. My life's been full, I savored much, children, good times, a loved one's t ouch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief; Don't lengthen it now with undue gri ef. Lift up your heart and share with me. God wanted me now; God set me fr ee.
