John Heinmiller

West Point, 2004

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Mother of '03 cadet on April 25, 2001:

To the Family and Friends of John Heinmiller.

May the following poem help you to keep your heart open for John's undying love for you and guide you through this difficult time:

"Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond's glints on snow;
I am the sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there; I did not die. My spirit lives."
(Author unknown)
