I am trying to find a memorial poem for a prayer card. I can only remember bits and pieces of it but it was very special to me and I have searched everywhere for it. The parts I remember: don't be sad for me, I've known the love of a good husband, wonderful children, the sound of laughing grandchildren, friends, etc. If anyone knows this poem, I would be so grateful.
 
My sympathies on the loss of your Mom:hug:

I tried doing a search, but honestly it came up empty. I will continue to try when I have more internet time.
 
I'm not sure if any of these are the ones you are looking for, but I know how quickly decisions need to be made at this time (I lost my dad almost a year ago, and that week is a blur in my mind).

Here are a few I found that are similar to what you are looking for:
----------------------------
The Final Flight
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free, I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call, I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way, I've found that peace at the end of the day.
If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah, yes, these things too I will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My Life's been full, I savoured much, Good friends, good times, a loved one' touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free.
------------------------------
The Fallen Limb
A limb has fallen from the family tree.
I keep hearing a voice that says, "Grieve not for me.
Remember the best times, the laughter, the song.
The good life I lived while I was strong.
Continue my heritage, I'm counting on you.
Keep smiling and surely the sun will shine through.
My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest.
Remembering all, how I truly was blessed.
Continue traditions, no matter how small.
Go on with your life, don't worry about falls
I miss you all dearly, so keep up your chin.
Until the day comes we're together again.
