Bury what is left of me

And scatter my ashes to the winds

To help the flowers grow.

If you must bury something

Let it be my faults, my weaknesses,

And all prejudice against 

My fellow man.

Give my sins to the devil,

My soul to God.

If by chance you wish to 

Remember me, do it with

A kind deed or word to someone

Who needs you.

If you do all I have asked,

I will live forever.
