Aunt Florie
February 2, 2017
I lived life
Compassionately and opinionated
Audaciously, I was liberated.
Truth be told I only wanted to live
until the age of 45
I always thought that getting old
was overrated
But I loved living life
Beautiful and vibrant
Foxy and neat
Always encouraged others to be the
best
They could be
I was lively, smart and bold
I enjoyed my family, parties,
and live shows
I had a lot of fun and I like to
joke
The mantra "Live Life" is
synonymous with my name Florie Reid
And just like the early birds
I loved to sing
Libations and celebrations
You enjoyed life with me
So mourn only a little
As I’m alright here
You’ve all provided me joy
For that I’ll hold dear
You no longer have to worry
I’m more than ok now
I’m never too far
Just look beyond the clouds
My life has not ended
It has just begun
My advice to you is live life
So you’ll have stories to tell
Because where I am is where you’ll
come
Whenever you see a cat, say hello
for me
Give my great, great grand kids a kiss
Remember me, as I will remember you
In my heart you are all missed.
