Obituary for Bruce Harkness

Bruce  Harkness
Bruce Harkness passed away on January 1, 2018 at his home in Hood River, Oregon. Bruce was born on January 27, 1934 of Englewood, New Jersey and was 83 years of age at the time of his passing.
Do not stand by my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am the invisible wind, strong or light, unknowable, ceaseless, or caressingly nice;
I am the sunlight’s brilliant flare, a hard diamond glint on snow, with shining ice;
I am the promise, of ripening fields and silently moving yellow flowered grain;
I am hope, like the gentle, thankful, sound, of warm autumn’s soothing rain;
I am the stars’ mystery, and a force giving birds’ uplifted, quiet soaring flight;
No journey in earth’s travail meet mine, I move west with all embracing night;
I am becoming part of you, now, for sure, as love is certain, and all truth is right;
Enough of that circling, returning, then far, then near, a useless, restless, roaming;
With direction now, toward that peaceful shade, I go forth clear, into the silent gloaming;
We will travel together, one blood again, maintained by faith, and promises forever burning;
Commune with me, I’ll give you rest; as day surely follows night we go on, there’s no returning.
Do not stand by my graveside and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.
With all my love, from the bottom of my heart
Your Wife,
Jana
