help needed locating a quote for a funeral

Sadly my beloved Grandma passed away on Sunday. Her funeral is on Tuesday next week. She strongly believed in a life for a life. Although very few people know this, my aunty is currently undergoing IVF, she had the eggs implanted the day before my grandma (her mother) passed away so we are truely praying for a miracle. There is a quote from the Talmud I believe that we think may be appropraite, something about ships passing. Sorry don't know much detail and have done extensive research on the net with no luck. We really want to include this as we feel it is what my grandma would want and know that she would be thrilled if my aunty finally gets the baby that she so longs for and deserves. This would make us all believe that she didn't die in vain.
I hope someone will be able to help me.
Many thanks in advance,
bec

this is the only verse I know that refers to ships passing . . .

Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing, only a signal shown, and a distant voice in the darkness; So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another, only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

could this be what you are looking for???
