Patrick Yacovetta
16 Sep 1962-7 Aug 1999
This memorial is dedicated to one of the best men that had ever lived, he is my brother. Patrick was known for his kindness, and willingness to help people when they needed him. He has helped me through some very hard times in my life and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to be a part of his short life. I love him very much and want him to be remembered by all, as a wonderful man who felt a lot of pain (emotionally)at the time of his death, which makes me feel incredible pain. Here is a poem that I wrote especially for patrick. I hope that his friends as well as family will remember Pat forever and keep him close to their hearts. I love you bro! and it will never be the same without you. You are an angel, and God must have wanted you close to Him, because you were so good. Now you can rest with Ruth and Dad, and be together forever. You are in the best place anyone could possibly be, you're with your loved ones and our God, who I know will keep you safe and happy. Thanks for being such a wonderful person, I will remember you always, I love you and miss you, here is your poem that I made just for you.

I want you to know!

A brief moment of darkness was all that I knew,
Before heaven's gate came into my view.
Loved ones and friends I had missed for many years,
Welcomed me with open arms and many happy tears.
All the hurt, fear and pain that I had ever known,
Is gone from my life, I am finally home.
I gazed upon the Lord's sweet smiling face,
And for the first time in my life, i knew and felt his grace.
I know that you miss me, but..please dry your eyes.
I will always be watching and loving you from my home in the sky.
A cool breeze on your face, a touch of light rain,
I will send as a reminder that we will be reunited again.
Life on earth is but one brief moment in time,
I am finally home, eternity's mine!
I love you big bro, I hope to see you again real soon.
You are too loved and missed to ever be forgotten.

Sleep with the angels! Love always your little sister,
Courtney Laine Scott

I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now, I'm free. I'm following the Path God laid for me. I took his hand when I heard him call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day. To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks undone must stay that way. I found that peace at the close of day. If that parting has left a void. Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I've savored much, Good friends, good times, A loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief. Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and share with me. God wanted me now: He Set Me Free. (Author UnKnown) Shon; we didn't want you to go so soon! We wanted you on earth longer. I feel so bad that i couldn't see more things I could of done to help you! I loved you so much! And still Love you! My heart still aches for you all the time. It has been 7 months. And It is so hard for it to sink in that you are really gone. I really thought you would never leave me. I loved you so much! It hurts so bad. I miss your smile, I miss those beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair. I miss hearing your voice when you walked in the room! You made me grin from ear to ear! You were always so funny! I Just miss You! I Know God has a special angel in heaven. Til we meet again! To the dad Tanner never had! We miss You!! Kodi And Tanner

Mary Ellen Yates
9 May 1920-31 Aug 1998
Born in San Francisco as Mary Ellen Ainsworth, daughter of Howard Stanislaus and Jessie, brother of Theodore ("Ted"). In the late 1920s Mary travelled with her mother to England. This was to pursue Jessie Anthony's calling to the Mazdaznan movement, which followed the teachings of Dr Otoman Zar-Adhusht Ha'nish. Despite moving as an infant, Mary retained vivid memories of her time in San Francisco. Mary first attended school at the newly-founded Frensham Heights school in Surrey, later Matlock Baths in Derbyshire. She also lived in Shipley, Yorkshire and Swinton, Manchester. In August 1943, Mary married Gordon Kenneth Yates and set up home in Cardiff, Wales. There were three sons of this marriage - Richard, Timothy and Robin. Unfortunately, Mary and Gordon separated in 1959 and Mary and her three sons moved to Deganwy in North Wales to set up home with Grandma Jessie ( " Dan Dan " ). Here Mary remained for the second half of her life. She was a devoted daughter to Jessie - nursing her through the closing years of her life ( she died on 28 December 1981 ). It was also a remarkable achievement to raise three boys almost single-handedly - particularly in those days. In addition to her three sons, Mary showed much love for her daughters-in-law Andrea Susan, Susan Jennifer and Rhiannon; her grandchildren Alex ( who sadly died in 1992 ), Lee, Natalie and Donna and her great-granddaughter Sofeena. She also loved her two dogs Toby and Ben. At the age of 78 years Mary died as a result of heart failure. The last few years had not been easy for her as her eyesight had also begun to fail quite badly. She would be the first to now acknowledge, with gratitude, her release from the difficulties and frustrations of recent times. It is just for the rest of us to suffer now, we miss her greatly.

Paula Yates
Died 17 Sep 2000
There is so much in life that is dismal, dreary and dull. Fortunately for us all, you were anything but. You were so witty and funny. I wish you had known how much you were admired and liked by thousands of real people, people who matter. It might have made a difference in the darker moments. Enjoy those blue skies from now on, hon. Nothing but blue skies. With much love, Ali Lister.
