FROM A FUNERAL PROGRAM

I spotted this on a program left in a bench from the funeral Mass here this morning for Edwin Wintermuth, IV at St. Mary's Annapolis, Maryland  His dates were October 8, 1933 till September 3, 2017. 

FROM LOVE IN THE TIME OF CHOLERA

BY GABRIEL GARCIA MARQUEZ

If I knew today 
would be the last time I’d see you,

I would hug you tight and

pray the Lord be the keeper of your soul.

If I knew that this would be the last time 
you’d pass through this door;

I’d embrace you, kiss you 
and call you back for one more.

If I knew that this would be the last time 
I’d see you,

I’d tell you I love you and

would not just assume foolishly 
you know it already.
