My cousin wrote this in 2015. I just found it.

When I become a memory…

Think of me with a smile.

Tears may fill your eyes, But only for a little while.

Remember all the good things we did.

Remember when I was at my best.

Remember only the good times, And let go of all the rest.

Remember when I was healthy And so full of life.

Remember me young and happy, With a life free of strife.

When I become a memory

And am no longer here with you, Smile and be happy, and remember, My love for you is true.
