Where did you loved one like to go on a Saturday afternoons, the beach, the tennis club, the golf course, fishing by a stream or to football games. Your loved one is at home. This is a celebration of your loved ones life, you shouldn't feel that it is necessary to find poems which are too morbid, if you want something up beat and cheerful then do it.
