A celebration of her life with be held in Shreveport, LA later this Spring.
"When I come to the end of the road 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 for long, and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared, miss me, but let me go."
-Christina Rossetti
