What's a good verse, poem,quote regarding passing of niece & mother?

I am stumped for wording to complete a program that will be handed out during the Unveiling/Marker -Need help ASAP -would like this dedication/wording to be upbeat & inspirational, and not to depress anyone. although the initial shock has worned off, we still mourn in our hearts. This special event will take place on the first day of Autumn, Sept 21, I would like to incorporate the "Celebration of life" with Autumn. (For example: (this is just a writing draft: Today is the first day of Autumn, a season - which brings beautiful foliage and everything seems fresh & crisp....and, people feel closer than probably anytime of the year- today at this celebration of life, here family and friends embrace for this dedciation and is a (final ?) step for us to take a change in .... ???? quote that will cheer her up. ... “Celebrate the happiness that family/friends are always giving, make every day a holiday and celebrate...I am just lost for words, can someone please

My 37 yr. niece passed from cancer, mother passed of broken heart (heart attack) my niece wanted a "celebration", but unable to fullfill because of the passings within 23 days apart on November, 07 (Autumn) our Mother always preached for us to put God in our lives, first.

thank you so much

Suggestions, I appreciate it so much.
