Beautiful Poem

Here is a poem that I would like said at my "good-bye party".

When I have 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 and not too long,
and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me, but let me go.
For this is a journey that we all must take,
and each must go alone.
It's all part of life's plan,
a step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the family and friends we know,
and bury your sorrows in doing good deeds,
Miss me, but let me go.

I hope that at my last party, my family and friends will gather and do a "shot" on me, and share some of the silly things I've said and done. I'm egotistical enough to want a few tears, but like the poem says, "miss me, but let me go." What do you hope for your last party?
