I've done graphics for a few memorial posters and program layouts. There was one that immediately came to mind that follows. I've got links for a few others though I'll see if I can dig up. A lot of it depends on the person who died and their personality. Some will need a more religious tone then others.

Google memorial poetry and memorial poems and you'll find lot's of options.


I Did Not Die

Do not stand at my grave and forever weep.
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and forever cry.
I am not there. I did not die.
