Guide him to a place of honor in the Land of the Ancestors, so that he may find the peace he deserves. Grant him rest that he might prepare for the next great adventure that waits him. So mote it be. Lady of Tears, Grant me comfort now as I mourn the passing of my loved one. Let me remember and cherish the love that we shared, the love that now fuels my sorrow. In my grief let my memories of him, his trials, and his triumphs burn bright that I might give testimony to his life and deeds.. Let him live forever in my heart, where age and infirmity cannot touch him. So mote it be.
