2 Timothy 4:6b-8 - to be read by Christine Prentice
The time for my departure is near. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race,
I have kept the faith. 8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the
Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to
all who have longed for his appearing.

Romans 14:7-9 - to be read by Ann Wiggins
7 For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. 8 If we
live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die,
we belong to the Lord. 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he
might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.
Address
Reverend Leroy Coote
There will now be a pictorial tribute where we can reflect on our own memories of Thyra.
Hymn
Breathe on me, breath of God,
fill me with life anew,
That I may love what thou dost love
and do what thou wouldst do.
Breathe on me, breath of God,
until my heart is pure,
until with thee I will one will,
to do and to endure.
Breathe of me, breath of God,
till I am wholly thine,
until this earthly part of me
glows with thy fire divine.
Breathe on me, breath of God,
so shall I never die,
but live with thee the perfect life
Of thine eternity.
