We will miss you Sensei Reichel, you will always be in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. Be at peace.

THE SPIRIT ETERNAL


'Don't stand by my grave and weep,

For I am not there.

I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond's glint on snow,

I am the sunlight on ripened grain,

I am the gentle autumn's rain.

In the soft hush of the morning light

I am the swift bird in flight.

Don't stand by my grave and cry,

I am not there,

I did not die.'
