“Miss Me, But Let Me Go”

Now that I’ve come to the end of the road,

And the sun has set for me

I want no part 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

It’s all a part of the Master’s plan,

A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick at heart

Go to the friends we know

And bury your sorrow in doing good deeds,

Miss Me, But Let me Go

The family would like to thank all of Henry’s friends and caregivers for their works of kindness and we pray that the Lord would pour them out a blessing that they would not have room to receive.

There are no services.

Offer Condolences for the family of Henry L. Bailey
