Memories in the Heart by unknown author (Read by John for Jo at Colney Wood service) Feel no guilt in laughter, she knows how much you care Feel no sorrow in a smile that she’s not here to share You cannot grieve forever, she would not want you to She’d hope that you can carry on, the way you always do So talk about the good times and the ways you showed you cared The days you spent together, all the happiness you shared Let memories surround you. A word someone may say Will suddenly recapture a time, an hour, a day That brings her back as clearly as though she were still here And fills you with the feelings that she is always near For if you keep these moments, you will never be apart And she will live forever locked safe within your heart

I was very lucky to have Jo as a special friend through my school years and we remained in touch. I will treasure all the lovely memories, but will very sadly miss her. Love Mary XX

She always had a smile and kind word. She never dwelt on her pain but on living life. She is missed. Vanessa
