    3. Hi Folks: My mother, Myrtle Ironside DUXBURY, passed away February l0th and I am preparing a Memorial Booklet to be mailed to relatives and will also be used at her burial in Sask. in the summer. I am searching for a poem that I saw on a gravestone in Duxbury Cemetery, Meaford. It is something like, Do not weep for me, I am not gone, I am the laughter in the wind ................. I was so touched by it, I took a picture, but at this stage, I can't put my hands on it. It is most likely in the Duxbury Cemetery transcript book or perhaps someone is familiar with it. I would like to include it on the last page of my booklet. Can someone help? Thanks, Norma (Duxbury) Haines.

    3. Dear Norma, I believe this is what you're looking for. I'm sorry for your loss. A year ago I was dealing with the loss of my mother so I understand how difficult this time can be. Best wishes. Judy McIntyre Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glint on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you wake in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night. Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die! Mary Frye (1932)
