I'm glad Cobble has posted the words. We had "What is Dying" read at my niece's memorial service as my brother-in-law had said he found it comforting.

My deepest sympathies are with you. Like several others I am also recently bereaved, but nothing can compare with the loss of your life-partner. You will, I'm sure, find an inner strength to carry you through the immediate future, but never forget that friends, even those you haven't met yet, are there for you.
