Negro, Gracias por todo el amor que me diste, Gracias por
el amor que brindaste a todos, Gracias por haber sido un
ejemplo de familia y unidad, te recuerdo tanto. No se porque
fue necesaria tu partida, pero quiero que sepas que no pasa
un día de nuestras vidas, sin que alguno de nosotros te recuerde o
te mencione y estoy segura que así será por siempre, porque
no hemos encargado que las generaciones futuras, aquellas que
aun cuando te conocieron eran muy pequeños para recordarte, sepan
de ti y te amen a través de nosotros y de nuestros recuerdos...

Negro, te amo, tu sentaste muchas bases en mi infancia que me
permitieron convertirme en lo que soy ahora de adulta... doy
gracias a Dios por haberte tenido... No me resigno, a veces
me gusta pensar que no te has ido que en algún momento sonará el
teléfono y serás tu...

Dios te bendiga...

Con todo Mi Amor y mis recuerdos eternos...

Tu sobrina Favorita...
Mary

So beautiful , So beautiful as a flower in the spring , So soft and pure as the leaves , So refined as the joyful blue , So strong and powerful as the stem , But now the flower stopped blossoming to soon , So sudden, so unfair , This is how we will always remember you . Dearest Nicole, we will never forget , We will always love you................. In Greece you loved , There you left your heart , Greece loved you too , And now she's crying for you.

John and I love, respect and miss you very much. I hope you're proud of how we've turned out. We'll both be married soon, and it breaks my heart you're not with us during these exciting times. I look forward to the day we're all reunited in heaven.

Your loving son,
Jeff

Lalia LaBonte was a very caring woman. She loved her family and friends dearly. Her love for animals was incredible, she never felt complete without either a cat or dog. At the time of her pasing she had 2 golden retrievers and 11 cats that lived thanks to her golden heart. Her husband, daughter and sons miss her very much, as we continue to teach her grandchildren that never met her, all about her. You are in Gods hands now. Please know that we love you and miss you.

Buried in St Mary's Cemetery, North Bay, Ont. Here's the gravestone you never had. Thank you for helping me to find my roots. I couldn't have done it without you. Your great-granddaughter Michelle

In memory of my cherished daughter, Denise Lacasse, who died from her injuries suffered in a traffic accident while cycling. She was a seasoned cyclist you know, for years it was her mode of transportation, to work, grocery shop or to visit me. She cycled the Gatineaus with the Passport office gang, and parts of Tanzania We zoomed along the highway on scooters amongst some wild drivers in Puerto Plata. I often silently worried, seeing her in my mind's eye among the heavy downtown traffic, then quickly chased away those dreadful thoughts asking her sister to protect her from beyond. That fateful day in November, she rushed out without the bike's flashing light, I can only guess. And the reflector for the fender? I found it in the basement when I had to clean out her apartment. She was a seasoned cyclist you know, my most cherished best friend, I can only think she was needed elsewhere that it was time for her to go. Ninakupenda sana, my daughter (I love you very much) Swahili

Denise was funny, kind and sweet. She showed me that life can be wonderful again and that life should not be taken for granted. My heart will always remember her.

Dearest Father,

Over the years I have missed you. I have remembered everything you have said. I wished we could have had time to say goodbye. I love you.

Doris Anne LaCava Anguzza

Dearest Grandfather,
I miss you now and I always will miss you. I wish I could have come to visit you often and talked to you more.

Love,
Your Granddaughter Doris Anne

I wish we had more time to talk. We were strangers in many ways. I have tried to stay close to everyone in the family.

I miss you now and always.

Doris Anne

With profound sadness and deep feelings of loss, your sudden passing has left a very deep void in the lives of your family, friends, and the grateful nation that you so faithfully served. An eternal salute to you, sir.....

I often sit and think of you, and think of how you died; to think we couldn't say goodbye, before you closed your eyes. Two tired eyes are sleeping, two willing hands are still; the one who worked so hard for us, is resting at God's will. Our family chain is broken, nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, we shall join you again.

Loved and Missed, Forever and Always

Just a man who loved fishing and boats; his wife and his 2 children; his grandc hildren and his dogs....he is sorely missed

Dave, It is your Birthday today and I just wanted to say that I really miss you and Love you.....Your sister Laurie Dave was born and killed in Nipigon Ontario Canada snowmobile accident....

Dear Daddy, You died when I was only 7 years old. I didn't really understand. I was confused and upset. I am all grown up and I know that you would be proud of me. I miss you so much! Love, Laurie:) PS: I still have the cat you gave me when i was 6 he's 13 years old now:)

To Mom, Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and all the times we shared. My kids and grandkids are growing up so fast. Know that Kayla and Dylan remember you and talk of you often. You were my best friend, and I have trouble still getting thru the day without a tear or two. When I found you already passed away, it just broke my heart. But I know that you were hurting and feeling just so weak, so I guess God knew what he was doing. Always remember that we were a "team" and I miss you every single day of my life. I love you more than words can say....Cindy and family

Dear Dad, It has been so long since you passed away on that Easter Sunday. We had no clue that the end was near the morning of Easter when me and my family talked with you on the phone. My heart about broke when I heard you had died. But, you went so fast, I know you must not have had any pain or fear. It was alittle over 17 years before Mom joined you...and you know losing her really did break my heart. I am happy to know you are both finally back together and enjoying heaven together. My son, Jason is a great bowler (he has bowled 27 300 games!!) and he always tells people he gets it from his grandpas. My kids are adults now and I have 3 grandkids and a step-grandchild...boy, alot has changed hasn't it?? Remember always that I am your "little girl" and I miss you as much now as I did in 1984. Take care of Mom for me....I love you....Cindy & family

The loss of my best friend, lover and confidant from your wife and the loss of the world's best dad from your sons: Here weI sit in despare after having you for 36 years to love, take care of, spoil and yes now and then, disagree with, but nevertheless - we had each other. The boys each 27 adn 25 are grieving their own pain as well. Now we sit here all alone wishing only for your return. God gave us the best and he only takes the best. We pray that you are happy, carefree and painfree my love because you paid your debt on earth. You sons and I miss you deparately but know that God has you in his hands and you are now in a far better place than we. Our love goes with you for eternity - as your love will remain with us until we draw our last dying breathe at which time we pray to see you waiting for us with those strong open arms. I am trusting in God and asking his forgiveness to me for my short-comings. I pray that in time he will heal my broken heart and at times the pain is most unbearable my love. Always will I treasure the sweet memories we made together and will always rely on them to get me through these difficult days without your warm and tender thoughts, deeds and touches. You were truly my gift from God and I never really quite understood that gift until it wasl abruptly taken from me that cold November 21, 1998 day. All that remains are your footsteps to walk in and your words of infinite wisdom to carefully guide me through each lonely day - I will always treasure each word softly spoken from your lips and heart bearing the knowledge and wisdom of your soul. I will carefully trod in your footsteps each day as I remember your daily deeds in carrying for our home and me. I only pray that someday I can give but half of what you gave so willingly gave to us all. Now those of us you've left behind will have to make that choice, whether to see it or not and that burden will be upon each and every family member to include your brother and sisters, your children and me to take to our graves. I leave you now in the Father's hands and draw upon your strength with him as I did while you were in body with me here on earth. Pease be with you my love, All our love to you Jim (Dad) forever, Your Wife and Sons Dottie Kay James and Jason

Brad was killed at age 15 yrs. in an auto accident. He was a loving person with a kind heart. We will always remember his smile and great sense of humor. His laughter and story telling will never leave our memories. May his memory live on in our hearts forever for we miss him dearly each and every day.

It gives me great comfort to put you here on the internet so you will never ever be forgotten. You were very special to me. The best brother anyone could ever have.

I could not be with you the last few weeks of your life, I find it hard that I wasn't, but you know why. As time goes by you're still very much on my mind. I reflect on the times we shared, happy, sad, they're all there. My memories of you nobody can ever steal from me and will remain special for ever. You were cheated of so much, your children Helen and Darren, now all grown up, your wife Yvonne misses you so much, I know you watch over them all, you were a great father and a devoted husband. Sadly you suffered immensely with your short illness only to depart from us all so young. Till we meet again from "sis" as you so fondly called me. Noreen xxx.

Beloved father, husband and grandfather. He is greatly missed. Mr. Lamkin was active in the Republican Party, running for the U.S. Congress in 1972. But most of all he was a man of infinite wisdom and humour, truly the embodiment of the popular phrase, "one of a kind."

Dad, is Bill W there? hug yourself, and Ma, and Earl &Rose for me

mom, happy mom/b'day,wherever you are love

blame it on el NIno

A wonderful man deeply missed by his family and friends. Mr. Lampe - Thank you for giving me and others the gift of your daughter, one of my best friends. Kari, I am always here for you. BW

As the middle of three brothers, Bri was the center around which we all anchored our lives. He became the rock, the central pillar for all who came to know him. He was sturdy, capable, friendly, committed, dedicated, loyal and kind, just the traits you'd want in a big brother. Brian was the captain of the team, the goto guy, Mr. Dependable. Most of his life, Brian was considered "ordinary one" of the three of us, but looking back, I see that is not true. His strength and courage and heart made him remarkably extraordinary. His earthy wisdom and advise is sorely missed, and the world is a lesser place without him. He was stricken with brain cancer at 29. Brian, We miss you and love you. -Your Brother Jason

God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not to be, so He put His arms around you and whispered, "Come to me".. With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Altough we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best. We love love and miss you, Daddy. You are always on our minds and in our hearts. Love always your daughters, Jamie, Jennifer, Julie and Cindy

Jeremy Patrick Landeck was taken away from us way too soon. He was my second son and the other half of my heart. I know he is up in heaven right now but I just wish he was here. I want to be able to hold him and kiss him once more. I will see you in heaven my precious little angel. Daddy misses you and so does Daniel. I remember those blue eyes and that full head of hair. The way I used to sing to you to get you to sleep. I wish this was easier but I know that you are watching over me my little guardian angel. Miss you and love you more than life baby.

The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pasture's: He leadeth me beside the still water's: He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake... Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over...Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.....Amen In loving memory; The surviving member's of the Grimm, Landenberger, Poling, Dixon, and Albaugh Families. We all know you are happy in your new place with God.

The artist with a lifetime of talent to share with the world is missed daily by family and friends. Words alone do not truly express the heartache we feel each day. Until we are together as a family in GOD's house, we will cry a lifetime of earthly tears.

In loving memory of a tiny woman, mother and grandmother, with enormous spirit who lived a hard life and passed away so unexpectedly. You had more inner strength than ten men and will be forever mourned and missed. May you rest in peace.

He was an incredible father, and husband. He left his family almost 11 years ago. He is missed greatrly by his wife Rosalie and his three children Amanda(15), Travis (14), and Valerie who was only 1 when he died she will be 12 on 4/28. We all can't wait until we meet again. Dad I love you and I miss you. I wish you were here.

A dedicated family man, that loved all, and knew not how to say," no" to those in need. A man that accepted all with any and all faults that they might have. A father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and brother that was loved by all. May he rest in peace, free from the worries he suffered in this world. God be with you, Grandaddy. I love You. Cory Ann Brych

Was a farmer all of his live and loved it! We miss you grampa. Sadly missed by Adele & Gordon, Laurie, David, Gary, Kevin, & Karen.

Loved so much by all his family - God Bless You Dear Dad xxx

He was my Dad, I will only ever have one and even though he was 84 when he passed away, I miss him so much. He was a friend to so many, a WW2 veteran and he suffered his illness so bravely in his final year.

For those who read this, tell your parents today that you love them – tomorrow may be too late.

Whitney was one of the funniest and spunky people you would ever meet! she was so spontaneous and in a instant you could be running out the door going do something crazy! she loved to have fun and she loved to laugh! she had the most infectious laugh and no matter if you were sad or mad the minute she started laughing you couldnt help but do the same! she is truly loved and missed by all!

He could hold his own with the best of 'em, except for the cops. But now he's dead because of a bunch of white supremacists.

Dear Mom and Dad, I really do not have any memories of you, I'm afraid., but I miss you both very much every day. I was in the car with you on that foggy January day in 1965, but I went through the windshield and survived after many months in the hospital. I know I was only 2 years old when you both had to leave me, and I know it was not your choice to leave me. I love you both and miss you more than you can imagine. Your daughter, April

Lois was my mom. It seems ironic to me that most of what I learned from her came out of her attempts to shelter me from the experiences she had suffered as a child. She was the youngest of nine children, so most would tend to think that she might have been spoiled. But circumstances largely outside of her parents' control combined to deal some heavy blows to Lois, the insecure little girl. First, the Great Depression hit, when she was just about two years old. The familiar stories of those times matched those of Mom's family, so fate seemed especially cruel when Mom's father was tragically killed one hot summer evening. Mom was only nine years old,and there could not have been a worse time for such a tragedy to happen. I learned compassion from my mother because she was compassionate and generous. But these messages were considerably reenforced by Mom's memories of the treatment the family, especially the young children, received as they struggled through the years ahead without a breadwinner in the house. The system for aiding the poor was cruel and indifferent, and Mom suffered both from the loss of her father, from which she never fully recovered, and the humiliations brought forth from poverty,that was in many ways much worse for a child to endure than those that other children endured at the time. As soon as she was legally allowed, Mom quit school, and went to work as a telephone operator, a job she loved that also provided her with the ability to support herself and not be a burden to her mother. She remembered going to dances with her girlfriends. She loved to dance, and once, with her partner, won a boogie contest. Then one day she met my father, and soon they married. They made a good life together, and made good, solid loving parents to their three children. Mom had a sparkling quality when she was content, and a riotous sense of humor. My friends loved my parents, even though they weren't the "best friend" kind of parents, and held high standards for their children. She, like Dad, was a person who spent less time talking about the difference between right and wrong than on setting an example by the ways in which she conducted herself, and by the way she treated others. These days, as I finally begin to fully appreciate the individual that that she was, I sometimes find it hard to believe how lucky I have been from birth, to have been gifted with Mom and Dad. Both knew that the secret to teaching the best lessons to children is to show rather than tell, to be living examples of what's good about people. My beautiful mother had no idea the tremendous legacy she left behind her. She made her life matter. Her echo will last for many generations to come.

My grandmother, Maude Townsley, married my grandfather, Columbus Langston, in Arkansas, when she was 18, and he was 22. Soon after, they moved to Oklahoma, where they would live until about 1935. They had eight children, including twin boys, one of whom was my father, Meredith. Grandma suffered from crippling arthritis, which had already affected the movement of both arms by the time she reached her thirties. I'm amazed that she was able to raise so many children, especially the twin boys, with her physical problems. She nonetheless did a fine job; all of her children were successful in their various fields of endeavor. They became hard workers and devoted husbands, wives and parents. Grandpa was a farmer for some years, but he also possessed the entrepreneurial spirit, and in his middle and later years, he owned his own business. The years in Oklahoma were undoubtedly the most difficult, as farm life was demanding and heavy work, and her labor was called for, even as she raised the children, and despite her physical pain. Nevertheless, Grandma endured with quiet dignity. She was a soft-spoken woman who embraced her traditional roles of wife and mother. After the family moved to California, difficult times continued until the end of the depression. Both twins were called to fight in WWII, and she fretted and worried over them until they were home safe again. After the war, Grandpa went into the gas station business, the kids were grown, and Grandma was finally able to relax a bit. She contented herself with her crocheting and her grandchildren's visits; she canned tons of wonderful jams, jellies and other treats, and gave most of them to her children. Grandma suffered a stroke one day early in 1952, and spent the next six months in the hospital unable to recognize family members. Less than a week after her 62nd birthday, she quietly left us.

His friends called him Mert. He was a likeable man, decent, and had a natural way about him that made him comfortable to be around. He started life with a twin brother, Merle, and they experienced many of their young adventures together, as well as the worst time. They were on the battleground together in WW II, and when they were just 41, Mert was with Merle when he died shortly after being diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. But the twins spent some memorable times as young men on their own during the Great Depression, too. Mert was the kind of guy who seemed always to find something of value that he could take with him through life, even during the worst times. The boys hopped aboard freight trains together while on the move seeking whatever work they could find. Merle suffered a broken eardrum during the war, and was discharged from the Army. Mert was relieved that his brother was going home, because the constant strain of worrying every time gunfire or explosions were heard seemed too much to deal with in addition to the hardships and fears everpresent in the jungles of New Guinea. With his brother back home, he could assume that he was safe. Later, Mert contracted malaria, and he too was discharged. After the war Mert met a young lady by the name of Lois Cotter, who was living just up the street from his small grocery store. Soon they were married. They had two daughters, then a son, and the family worked and played together, until the children were grown, and had moved away to raise their own families. Mert had prospered in his small business in the post-war boom. He had built a new, much larger store just across the street from the old one, moved to a middle class neighborhood and ultimately presented a picture of middle class family that people seem to long for a return to today. He was quietly courageous, incorruptably honest, respected by everyone who knew him, and respectful and generous to those whom he knew. He never preached or moralized, but set the above example for his children and anyone else with whom he crossed paths. He was a faithful and loving husband, and the best possible father any kid could ask for. I ought to know. Mert was my Dad. I never stop missing him.

I feel part of me died too, I want you to come back, will this intense pain ever go away, you were my hero, you were the wind beneath my wings. My husband Stephen and children Melanie, Stuart and Daniel are with me , they and all your other grandchildren and great grandchildren love and miss you.

Sister Margaret will long be remembered for her generous outreach to the needy in Anchorage, Alaska and to the needs of the young people in Religious Education Classes at Holy Family Cathedral. May she be at peace in our Risen Lord Jesus Christ.

Yvonne Lived a life full of love towards others, and died at a young age of cancer. She is someplace better now and her pain is over. Everyone, she'd want you all to value the lives you lead, and forgive the pain others cause you in life, for to see what is important and what is not is beyond the ordinary. Always greet others with a smile and an open heart and mind. Goodbye sis.

To My Beloved Father: We shall sing, we shall sing, we shall sing. And we shall rise over the rainbow! Until we meet again. Love your daughter, Karen A. Larson

My fiancee died in a unexpected car accident. He died at the scene and I was never able to see him again. I miss him more that words can express. I never thought that I would have to live my life without him. I hope he knows how much I miss him.

This memorial is dedicated to the memory of my father, Steve. Although he was not my biological father, he was my one and only "Dad". He came to me when I was only 4 years old. And was only able to stay until I was 18. Although there were "rough spots" at times, I still loved him with all my heart! When I found out he was sick,(cancer) I was devistated. I got the bad news in May of 1993, right before high school graduation. And he left me in February of 1994. Not long enough. I only wish that I could have gotten to keep him just a little bit longer. So he could've been there to see his first grandchild, my daughter, Sydney. And I don't get to have my dad walk me down the aisle the day I get married. Life can be so unfair.

I miss you, Dad. I know you're lookin' down on me and Syd. Watch over us good. Your loving daughter always, Jenny

There are no words to say how much I miss you, Tom. Forever, Your wife, Sue (and dog, Tucker)

This is just a memorial garden for Henry. He was loved by all, but stalked by some. He was a traveler. He enjoyed his life in the carnival. He was an excellent Carnie. He loved everyone even if they stalked him or not. So if you would like to contribute to his funeral expenses please mail a check or money order to: HL/HR,1210 Hollering Hill Rd., Camden Wyoming, DE 19934. Put in the FOR line: Local Oklahoma Bank Act.

You contributed so much to this world. You helped others in need and you fought in the Second World War as a Desert Rat. You made people laugh with your funny ways and your poems. We are all missing you and the house is quiet without you but we are happy to know you are at peace.

In memory of a Husband, Dad & Grandfather: -

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the autumn winds that blow

I am the warmth of the summer sun
I am new life thats just begun
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there I did not die

We'll meet again, all my love Mary xx

Thank you Dad for looking after us.
Thank you Dad for helping us.
Thank you Dad for your good times and bad.
Thank you Dad for making us smile, when sad.

Love always, Heather, Paula, Sarah & Clive.

Fondest memories dear Grandfather, love Beccy, Philip, Jasmine, Christina, Joseph and Simon.
Meow from Sooty & regards from all friends.

You will be forever in our hearts and minds.

A loving Son, Brother and Uncle. Forever missed. Always in our heart

Beloved mother, grandmother and wife. it has been 20 years and we still miss you. walk with the angels until we see you again. we love you "Big Mama".

In loving memory of my foster mother who was a great inspiration to me and all who knew her. A strong, wise and honest person whose values she instilled in us will live on. May you rest in peace sweet lady. I will miss you always my "Mrs. Latona". Love, Missy Lou

Doc, you were my personal podiatrist, and my landlord for nearly ten years, a wonderful friend, as well, and you had an art for cursing like a trooper. I'll never forget the time when Bill The Plumber installed your new sink there in the old rooming house, and only days afterward, it was a Sun. morning when I called you to tell you there was water all over the floor underneath it; a few more days passed, before you said, "Boy, Eddie, I'm so glad you called me about that G.D. pipe, because we would have had a f---ing mess; we'd have had water up the kazoo!!" LOL
Whenever my toenails became ingrown, you always treated them, so I could enjoy my day. Thank you for being so good to me, and now you are in God's eternal kingdom. God Bless You. Your friend, Eddie

My mother's funeral is Friday morning at 11am. I cannot cry and will not cry over her death. It's not an ending it's just the beginning of her journey, hopefully to find the peace she could never attain in this lifetime. She worked hard all of her life, 40 of which was spent working for Owens Corning. She would tell me her drinking and her smoking was all she had left in her life. I loved her, she gave me life, and I will always cherish her for raising me alone, and making me strong in the knowledge, if need be, I don't need a man in my life, I Can Make It On My Own! But I amangry. She should have lived longer.

In memory of my baby boy. Sadly missed by his parents and siblings.How does the world go on when someone dies.What a great loss to never have met you. I think of you often and know that the lord is taking care of you along with your grandpa. Love your mommy

This is a memorial to my grandfather, Frances Dale Lauver, better known as "Abe." He was the best grandfather anyone could ever ask for. Great-grandfather, or "pa-pa" to my three sons. Grandpa raised me until I was seven years old, out at their farm with Grandma Fern. To me, he was more of a father than a grandfather. He was a two time, decorated, war veteran. Father to only one daughter, Judith Dale, grandfather to Teresa, Nina, and Mickey, and great-grandfather to Ian, Gavin, Tanner, Brandall, and Machaela. Gifted poet. 11:15 a.m. 5/11/98, you were gone. Expected, yet unexpected. Your suffering has ended, and I know that you are looking down at us, and trying to help us to deal with our grief. Please make it easier, because right now, it's unbearable. The funeral is Friday, and then it will start all over again. Your asked to be cremated to try and save some money for mom. You must have known what you were doing, because the boys can't get home from Alabama now, so we will be able to bury your ashes when they can get home. If you could have only held on until May 30th, they would have gotten to see you one last time. Go in peace now Grandpa. We are grieving now, but when our grief has subsided, we will celebrate your life. We expect that Grandma will be joining you very soon. Married so many years, you would have to expect that. Please take care, and watch over all of us you have left behind. I love you Gramps.

I miss you dad. I love you.

I miss you mom. I love you.

He will always be in my heart. Everyone misses him with all of their heart. No matter what everyones says we know what really happened. We think of you every day that passes. Love Lindsay LaVecchia

Joey was my brother, and he is still missed sorely. He went swimming on a Sunday afternoon in July of '97, and he changed our lives forever. He had a unique laugh. Nobody, even now, has ever made me smile the way he did. He was a very special person. He had a good heart, he loved to collect angels, and he loved everybody. He was the most special person you could know. The day he drowned was the day something died in all of us. We love him and miss him.

Carly.. "my daughter in Spirit" was killed on the night of December 7, 1996 while on her way home from a party. The car she was a passenger in was struck by a drunken driver at a high rate of speed. The following is my special memorial to "my special little girl".

"OUR CARLY"

She shared with us her style and grace,
so lovely, slim with smiling face.
Her hair was dark, her smile was warm,
to see her was to know her charm.

She loved her family most of all,
but shared herself with all who called,
and had no prejudice, or hate -
but accepted life just on her faith.

Her life was short but full of love,
for family, home and God above.
So short a time with us it seems,
no time to really fill her dreams.

But sometimes God has other plans,
that's different from we mortal man.
He uses us to fill His needs,
to do His work, to sow His seeds.

And so our Carly's gone away,
a star in Heaven some would say.
Memories of her are wonderful you see,
She is a precious symbol of you and me.

Joseph O. 97'

Dearest grandmother and loving mother. Born in Czechoslovakia and passed away so unexpectedly in Haifa, Israel. We will always love and remember her, and may she rest in peace

Mom, Almost 4 years have gone by since that fateful night in 1995 when you were taken from us so suddenly. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and miss you terribly, but I know that one day we'll see each other again. Until that day... Your youngest son, Roger

An old soldier and gentleman from the forgotten army, to be remembered. Always my hero and father.

Pop, Almost 4 years have come and gone since you were taken from us. You and mom loved each other dearly...anybody could see that. You didn't want to live without each other and although you were here for only a week after mom died, you thought it was too long. I know you're together now, and we'll all be together soon. Thank you for making my mother so happy. Roger

You were a great inspiration to me, I'll never forget you. You will always be in my heart, now and forever.

Alyson was a friend I met in college and had the fortune of sharing feelings, letters, songs, and a brief time with over one winter break in school. I lost touch with Alyson soon after she went back to school without reason. I later learned she had been really sick when I saw her for the last time the following New Year's Eve. She died the following summer of cancer and that's when I understood why she felt she had to lose touch with me. When she left this earth, something very special was lost forever. I keep a box in my closet with all the letters she sent me, a beautiful rose she drew me, and her obituary. It seems so wrong to have all these living things like letters and a picture in a box with her obituary. I think I feel her sometimes, looking out for me. She was one of those very few genuinely good people few of us ever have the fortune of meeting.

This will serve as the virtual memorial for my mother. While everyone has seen the movie Snow White, I had the honor of being her daughter. My mother was the fairest in the land and also the purest of heart. She touched the lives of all she knew and is dearly missed by all who love her.

It was the way she embraced and lived her life that her true beauty shown. While God gifted her with physical beauty it was grace, unconditional love, and respect for all came naturally to her. This inner beauty showed on her smile, in her eyes, and most importantly in all each of the actions she made through out her days.

Edward charles lawley died in 1997 then I was only 8. Now at 14 I look back at the times I spent with my grandad and I can remember few. I felt in some way that I had to make a good memorial for him when I came across this page.

He died of cancer in the early days of December. I feel that he has been watching over me for the last year or so. I keep seeing visions of him, I keep getting signals in my head when something is about to happen. I'm not a real beliver in Jesus or god but I do belive that my grandad is in heaven watching over us all.

If you're watching over me now, I would like to say this to you " Grandad, it's been a few years now since you passed away. Things have changed you would be a Great grandad now, As my sister gave birth to a healthy baby boy in july 2002 named XAN FRANKIE JOHN FARMER. I would like to let you know that me and all of the family are always thinking about you. I love you a lot and please carry on helping me and guiding me through life. I love you"

Other people passed away in my time who i would also like to pay tribute to are -

TED FEREDAY (GRANDAD TED)
MAY ASHMORE (NANNY ASHMORE)
GEORGINA ? (AUNTY ENA)

I love you all and miss you

As quoted on the bottom of my grandads grave

My Mom, my very best friend in the world. You were the most loving, forgiving, understanding person I've ever known. Thank you for teaching those things. I had no idea how much I would miss sharing the little details of every day life with you and I often need to hear your words of encouragement. But I am thankful that you are safe in the arms of God now and know that someday I will be near to you again. Until then, I will always be your loving daughter, Diane.

Danielle I really miss you darling, Im so sorry we didn't keep in touch. Thankyou, for being the best teenage friend I had. You were a real 'hippy chick' who was so creative and beautiful, I'll always remember you and me coming back from the Swan pub in Ashvale Surrey laughing together and going on the train to Guildford College. Danny may you find peace in heaven, I just hope you will be at heavens gates to welcome me, when my time comes. Danny I will always love you, not one week after we lost contact did I not think of you. Please keep smiling Danny and I will play the zany music loud to remember you like 'Wild Thing' by the Troggs. Sorry Darling! Please forgive me for being silent for so long. Lucy Daisy Lee Missing you XXXX P.S. Thanks for showing me how to put lipstick on.

To a man of few words and of a great mind, my Grandfather. In Cruce Salus ...

Fly away where a new world waits for you, always look back though, not to cry and not to regret, just to help who's left behind...help us all to heal and understand, because we don't know why you had to leave....I can only guess it was time for you to be free--to ascend to a broader, more wonderful life than this

I believe you're in a better place now, a place where only beautiful souls will hold you...

Be sure to comfort and protect your children, they need you now....stand behind them, rise within them and love them....

(thank you, Heather and Leisha.....)

Claire, even after all this time, there aren't words to express the hole your absence has created, and the way things might have been different had you not left us....I still miss you, and though you didn't really believe in anything after this life...if anyone deserves eternal happiness in a better place, it's you.

Love

Your friend

Matt

Gone too soon but not forgotten Lil Klover!! This poem is dedicated in the memory of Klover.

Hi Mummy

It's me, your little Angel
Just checking in with you.
I know you're sad
because I'm gone,
and Mummy I'm sad too.

It's beautiful here,
wherever I am,
there's such a lovely view.
But mostly when I'm sitting here
I'm looking down at you

I see all your feelings,
everyday when I look down,
I love to see you smile
and I know sometimes you frown

But guess what?
I have a job to do.
God saved it for your little girl.
I get to watch over you
and protect you from the world.

So though you cannot see me
and I know it's hard on you,
You'll surely see the benefits
of the job God has me do.

My grandma, my best friend. You are gone, but not forgotten, and even though I miss you dearly, I know your home ware you belong. I know that when its time for me to go, you'll be there watching in the window of Heaven, Just like you always did when I would come and go from your house. I'm so proud that I had you in my life, and that I'm a part of you. I thank the Lord every day that he let me be one of your grandkids, and know the joy, and love that you had to offer, not only to me but everyone you came in contact with. See you someday soon, when the Lord sends for me. "Well done thy good and faithful servant." (II Timothy 2:15)

My husband died a valiant death. He refused to let cancer eat away at his spirit. Even though he suffered great personal indignities, his spirit and sense of humour never waivered. At the end of his life he found the things he always sought:

Trust
Commitment
Love

That I was there for him, then and always. Peace be with you my love for eternity.

The day I had you was the most happiest day of my life.
You were my sunshine and my life began that day.
I miss you so much.I love you so much too.I want to be with you so badly that it hurts.
Please be there to greet me when I cross over to the other side. I'll need your help for sure. You are the most wonderful daughter any one could have had. I never thought you would die before I would. It was so unfair to you. You only had 20 years and you couldn't wait to turn 21. You left your poor husband Robby. He grieves for you every day too. Hope to see you soon my dearest daughter.
Love forever,
"mops" your mama
Teresa

You will always be our "Sunshine"

God saw Dad was getting tired and cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered "come to me". With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away, although we loved you dearly we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating,hard working hand at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us he only takes the best. We will always love you Dad.

Daddy,

It has been many years since you have left us, but to me it was like yesterday, I miss you so very much, but know you and mama are together and waiting for the rest of us. I love you daddy, thank you for being there for me and I am so sorry for any hurt I may have caused you. You were the best dad and grandfather God ever put on the earth...

Mama,

I still miss you very,very much. The one thing I can hold on to is knowing I was holding your hand and telling you I loved you as you passed over to be with the Lord and Daddy. One day we will all be together. What a reunion we will have when we all meet again. Thank you for being my mother.

Two Hearts Beating as one........
That seemed to be Brandon from the day he was born... so loving, tender and caring that he surely must have had two hearts...... but it turned out that Brandon gave his only heart to a woman who was loosing hers...... and by that miracle, she now lives..... not with one heart inside her, but with two.

Brandon Layton..... 3 time national champion motorcross racer got on his first bike at 3 years old..... Nicknamed "Jeeber", this little guy drew crowds of admirers as he climbed the ranks of the motor cross world to become a revered and loved competitor..... Brandon was incredible and highly unusual.... even as a competitor he would compete with ruthless "kindness".. encouraging his rivals with helpful advice, pats on the back and that charming smile of his..... But Brandon's life was tragically cut short when on March 6th, 1999 he was instantly killed in a head-on collision with another rider at the Beaumont Practice Track in Beaumont, California. Brandon's rush to the hospital saved his organs but not his life...... Through the kindness and generosity of his parents, Laurie and Allen Layton, Brandon's organs were donated to needy people across the nation..... The most incredible story coming from that gift of Life was that of Nicole Luederitz. Her story of a struggle with her heart and the operation she received that placed Brandon's heart literally on top of hers to save her life was featured in People Magazine June 19, 2000 issue. The transplant left her with both hearts.... and now Brandon lives in her. In trying to go on, his Mother Laurie, now without her only child, tries to help others in every way she can: last year giving a Birthday party for Brandon and raising money for toys for tots..... Brandon's memorial fund also goes to the cause of helping children and we encourage you to donate whatever you can to that fund so that Laurie can put it to good work for you and Brandon and all the children who aren't so fortunate. To donate to the Brandon Layton Memorial Fund, donations are accepted at:

I thank you for visiting Brandon's memorial.... He will always be remembered for the child he was, the competitor and "champion" he was and for the "angel" he is today and will always be.... watching over us all.
Best wishes to you and yours.
Victoria Larsen

The eternal quest to love and be loved appears to be the most basic human need. The qualities that you have displayed have been remembered by everyone in contact with you. I once said that if we rushed things I would end up living without you in my life at all. You are not here with me as I write this, you are not here with me at all. But I know I am not alone. I feel your heart and soul in many things I attempt to accomplish. I see you in my dreams. You help me. give me life. You save me from the things I don't want to face on my own. Even though I never said good-bye while you were breathing, I know you felt my strength as you laid there--helpless. I was your first love, but not your last. You have given a meaning of life to me that can never be taken away. The time that we shared together was minimal because I was afraid that once I let you in my life you wouldn't like the person that you found. I never never knew what I feared when we were together, but it is all making sense right now. What did I have to worry about? Rejection? Being alone? Losing you? Loving you? None of them!! Letting you down was by far my greatest concern. I have now learned to love myself enough to learn to love others. Instead of letting the odds continuosly turn against next time I won't have to worry about letting you go as I did before. I know we will see each other again, and when we do I won't let you go as I did before. I love you! Heather

ik wil weer op reis gaan
in de lichamen van mijn vrienden
in de nacht van al wat ik lief heb
ik wil weer beminnen

Ciao Mamma,
sei scomparsa troppo presto lasciandoci un vuoto spaventoso dentro il cuore. Avremmo voluto salvarti ma nulla abbiamo potuto contro la tua terribile malattia.
Ti vogliamo bene e te ne vorrremo per sempre.
Stefano, Manuela, Barbara, Domenico
