Pauline Mae Laing's memory board

An Angel An angel lived among us, A gift from God above, She showered us with kindness, And shared with us her love, She cherished every moment, With the man who was her life, Walking hand in hand together, Facing life with all it's strife, She loved her children dearly, Each one a different way, Nestled close within her heart, Though, now she's far away, She's gone to live in heaven, But she's here with us today, Smiling down on every one of us, And telling us she's okay. Order of Service Entry Music : Make Heaven Wait - Guy Sebastian Welcome Poem She is Gone You can shed tears that she is gone, Or you can smile because she has lived, You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back, Or you can open your eyes and see all she has left, Your heart can be empty because you can't see her, Or you can be full of the love you shared, You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday, You can remember her only that she's gone, Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on, You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back, Or you can do what she'd want, Smile and open your eyes, love and go on. Tributes Christine and Denise, Kristy, Tamara and Anne-Marie Photographic Celebration of Pauline's Life with Music "Thinking Out Loud" - Ed Sheeran Poem A poem About Nan All Nana's are special but none more than ours, Her nature was to be happy and caring all the time, She had a special way about her, something all her own, A kind and loving nature and a charm that was hers alone, Everyone who met her seemed to love her at the start, Her smile bought out the sunshine and her kindness warmed the heart, Her sense of humor gave each day a bright and happy touch, And these were some of the reasons that we loved our Nan so much, She lived for her family and always made things fun, She loved each of us as if we were the only one, Life is full of beautiful things and she proved this oh so much, With her smiling face, her comforting words and her warm and gentle touch, She always taught us patience and showed tolerance to the end, To us she will always be our very special friend. Reflection Time Placing of Flowers with Music " To Where You Are" - Chloe Agnew Closing Words "Journey Through Life" The Lords Prayer Blessing Final Music "Watermark" - Enya Our family would like to thank everyone for all your support, thoughts and kind words at this difficult time Memories are not framed in gold Or hung for all to see, They are deep within our hearts That's where you will always be, Since you have left us Our lives are not the same So walk with us throughout our lives Until we meet again Celebrant Heather Ryman
