Dylan Martin Sterling
April 4, 1992 - May 15, 2014
CELEBRATION OF LIFE SERVICE: Tuesday, May 20, 2014 at 4:00 p.m. Taylor Funeral Home Chapel
In lieu of flowers, a bursary is being established in Dylan's name to help students who wish to pursue a career in music.
This is the poem Adriane McNeely read so beautifully:
Death is nothing at all – Henry Scott Holland
Death is nothing at all
I have only slipped away into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other
That we are still
Call me by my own familiar name
Speak to me in the easy way you always used
Put no difference into your tone
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed
At the little jokes we always enjoyed together
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was
Let it be spoken without effort
Without the ghost of a shadow in it
Life means all that it ever was
There is absolute unbroken continuity
What is death but a negligible accident?
Why should I be out of mind
Because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you for an interval
Somewhere very near
Just around the corner
All is well.
Nothing is past; nothing is lost
One brief moment and all will be as it was before
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!
These are the abridged song lyrics Dylan's Aunt, Sheryl Sterling read:
Ten Thousand Days – Tool
You are the light, the way,
that they will only read about.
Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please forgive this bold suggestion.
Should you see your maker's face tonight,
Look him in the eye.
Look him in the eye and tell him,
I never lived a lie, never took a life,
But surely saved one.
Hallelujah
It's time for you to bring me home.
