Oh Grandpa\n\n(I wrote it but you can take credit)\n\nOh Grandpa, Grandpa,\nYou've seen it all;\nYou've seen changes,\nOn this Earthly ball.\n\nOh Grandpa, Grandpa,\nThe tales you've told,\nForever and ever,\nMy heart will hold.\n\nOh Grandpa, Grandpa,\nYou sang me songs,\nAnd you've taught me,\nRights and wrongs.\n\nOh Grandpa, Grandpa,\nI thank you much,\nFor this big family,\nAnd their loving touch.\n\nOh Grandpa, Grandpa,\nI want you to know,\nI'm proud of you,\nAnd I love you so.\n\nOh Grandpa, Grandpa,\nI want to thank you,\nFor every loving thing,\nYou say and do.\n\nOh Grandpa, Grandpa,\nFrom beginning to end,\nYou'll forever be,\nMy very best friend.

Sorry for your loss! It's hard to decide what is good enough for a special family member during times such as these. I didn't write a obituary but I read to "To Where You Are" by Josh Groban at my mother's memorial service. Very beautiful!

Despite about 25 minutes of searching I haven't been able to find this poem.  Could you call or e-mail someone you know who has to do the same assignment and possibly get the poem that way?  \n\nThese sites may be of some help to you.  My only other advice would be to get to a bookstore in your area if there is one and you might find it there.  Best of luck with it.

Within three months of my sweet Mama passing, we had a memorial to her memory.  She had always said that no one was ever to cry about her death, but we were to remember her with love & laughter.  My Mama had painted alot of sweet pictures in her life, and she had also written a few stories & poems.  We reserved a small gathering place in the city park and set up all of her creations, even some great clothes that she had made!  My friends & family helped with tea &  cookies,(could be cokes & chips) we had a guest book for visitors who wanted to write anything that they remembered about her, and we put it in the local paper and posted fliers around the neighborhood.  Now we had lived there a long time, lots of folks knew us, but you just never know who will show up and share a sweet story about their friend, your Mama!  Good Luck

I like the poem entitled Family by Mark Spencer.  You can find it at  http://www.dreamersreality.com/poems/read/11910/Mark_Spencer/Family/Family/.  Also, there is a poem called The Family Castle by Nancy Rakovszky you can find at netpoets.com.  Best of luck.

I am so sorry to hear this. My thoughts and prayers are with your brother you and his family.\n\nDo not stand at my grave and weep\nI am not there; I do not sleep.\nI am a thousand winds that blow,\nI am the diamond glints on snow,\nI am the sun on ripened grain,\nI am the gentle autumn rain.\nWhen you awaken in the morning's hush\nI am the swift uplifting rush\nOf quiet birds in circled flight.\nI am the soft stars that shine at night.\nDo not stand at my grave and cry,\nI am not there; I did not die.

inspiring, pleasant and uplifting poem that brought a smile and a tear. This is not the place for publishing such beautiful work however. Perhaps you could start a 360, or your own site at Geocities. It's not hard or time consuming, and that way people ca read your wonderful work whenever they want.

I could probably make one up or find a few. There's a great site for love quotes and poems. Good luck!

My God!  Even before I look for poems, I'd like to tell you how sorry I am.  My sincerest condolences.\n\nI'm back.  I've learned that the most requested poem for funerals is this one by Christina Rossetti\n\nRemember Me\nChristina Rossetti\n\nRemember me when I am gone away,\nGone far away into the silent land;\nWhen you can no more hold me by the hand,\nNor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.\nRemember me when no more, day by day,\nYou tell me of our future that you planned:\nOnly remember me; you understand\nIt will be late to counsel then or pray.\n\nYet if you should forget me for a while\nAnd afterwards remember, do not grieve:\nFor if the darkness and corruption leave\nA vestige of the thoughts that once I had,\nBetter by far you should forget and smile\nThan that you should remember and be sad.\n\nI realize that I don't know your friend and therefor can't really suggest something that will memorialize her or comfort her family and friends.  I'd suggest you look at the sites below.\nWhat can you say about your friend's life?  Remembering her life with a poem would be more of a tribute than thinking of her sad death.  A friend of my daughter's committed suicide earlier this year, absolutely a surprise to all, and in their sorrow, his friends and family could only look to what a fine young man he had been when they were looking for comfort.\n\nAnother idea would be to ask her English teacher at school to make a selection.\n\nBest to you.

You can type those key words in and search for the video. Try 'grandpa' 'grandfather' 'dedicate' 'sing' 'concert' etc.

Thank you so much. My Mom passed away 10 yrs. ago. It's nice to know that there are people who are still thoughtful. God bless you.

just be there for her. it is hard seeing our grandparents bedridden and weak. talk with her. my grandmother lived until she was 98 (my dad mother). don't listen to the first answer. that is a nasty thing to say to anyone. my grandmother would tell me stories about when she was a little girl and tell me things when I was younger. let her tell you things about when she was young. they are things you would never forget. remember grandma did not have a tv or radio or bathrooms in the house. we have color tv and radio and indoor bathrooms. and another thing kiss her and hug her and let her know you love her.
