The family of Myrna Cherubin wishes to express our sincere thanks to StLeo’s Church and Cotton Funeral Home for all of their help and services.

When I come to the end of theroad and the sun has set for me,

I want no rites in a gloom filled room,Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little-but not too long,and not with your head bowed low.

Remember the love that we once shared,Miss me-but let me go.

For this is a journey that we all must take,And each must go alone.

It’s all part of the Master’s plan,A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick at heart,Go to the friends we know.

Laugh at the things we use to doMiss me-but let me go.
