Is this, perhaps, too dark?

What seems dark to you would be blinding sunshine for some of the more depressive among us. I believe that at our ages it is natural, and even healthy to think of our eventual departure. This contemplation of your death reveals much about how you have lived your life. I picture you as a warm, loving, and thoroughly decent person, who has brightened the lives of those who call you mother, grandmother, wife, or friend. I wish you many, many more years of continuing to do that.
