Condolences and memories may be forwarded through www.humphreymiles.com. Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow, but remember me in every tomorrow. Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles I've only gone to rest awhile. Although my leaving causes pain and grief, my going has given me relief. So dry your eyes and remember me, not as I am now but as I used to be. Because I will remember you all and look on with a smile, understand in your hearts I've only gone to rest awhile. As long as I have the love of each of you, I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.
