He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often,
and loved much.
Who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men, and the love, of little children.
Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task.
Who has left the world better than he found it.
Whether an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul.
Who has always looked for the best in others, and given them the best he had.
Whose life was an inspiration
Whose memory, a benediction.
Who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men, and the love, of little children.
Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task.
Who has left the world better than he found it.
Whether an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul.
Who has always looked for the best in others, and given them the best he had.
Whose life was an inspiration
Whose memory, a benediction.
SUCCESS, Elisabeth-Anne "Bessie" Anderson Stanley
