Margaret and family would like to thank her neighbors for all of their support.
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be
always at your back
May the sun shine warm
upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon
your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you
in the hollow of His hand.
--Irish Blessing
