Memorial quote?

Jeapy

(Mods please move if there's a more appropriate place for this thread-didn't know where else to put it and didn't want yore ma replies in AH )

Hi all,
I'm looking for a nice quote, biblical reference, lyric or just a short phrase to put onto a memorial. It's for my boyfriends mums anniversary next month to go alongside a tree we planted for her for mothers day last week. Has anyone got any ideas or know a good website to look at? Ive searched the net, but theyre all a little morbid or far too long.
I don't want it to be sad, more like a celebration of life that would make you smile to read it.
Thanks in advance,
Jeapy.

I found this book to be full of quotes and some really beautiful stuff.

Wow, freaky coincidence! I was in the hairdresser earlier and that book was on the windowsil (sp?). It was left there by the Book People, didn't even read the name or pick it up! Might go back tomorrow and have a look. Thanks for the reply.

I've always like this one - you'd see it on mass cards and the likes!
