My Own Eulogy | Michael T. Miyoshi

When I’m dead
And when I’m gone
Don’t shed a tear for me.
For I’ve gone home
To live with God
For all eternity.

I’ve lived my life
And now it’s done
And no regrets have I.
To those I’ve loved
Friends and family
I write this short good-bye.

I tried to bring you
Great joy in life
Remember the good times we had
Remember the laughter
And laugh again now
This isn’t a time to be sad.

Don’t fret, don’t frown
We’ll meet again
Beyond heaven’s pearly gate
We’ll have much fun
When you get there
Now, I can hardly wait

So laugh, have fun
Be full of joy
Have a celebration
Rejoice my friends
And remember me
With words of adoration.

So good-bye for now
Friends and family
We’ll meet again, it’s true!
So until then
When we meet in His house
Shalom, God’s peace be with you.
