Dr Seuss at a funeral

[Hobbes]

Just wanted to share this quote with you-especially anyone who's recently lost a loved one.

My friend Sue died last week after a long battle with cancer. At her funeral on Friday, her son stood up to dleiver a euology and finsihed with a quote from a book Sue used to read him as a child

"Don't cry because its over. Smile because it happened"

I'm filling up as I type this, but at the same time its the most uplifting thing I've ever heard at a funeral and I want this on my headstone when my time is over.I've got it on my screen wallpaper at work now, so I'll see it and think of her.

I thought so too-just hope its not a quote from "How the Grinch stole Christmas"
