Dhammapada Verse 219 & 220: Receiving a Loved One

Verse 219
When, after a long absence, a man safely returns from afar, his relatives, friends and well-wishers welcome him home on arrival.

Verse 220
As kinsmen welcome a dear one on arrival, even so his own good deeds will welcome the doer of good who has gone from this world to the next.
