I was with my mother when she died, congestive heart faliure. I was able to tell her thanks for being who she was, aloving wife and mother. I am only sorry she never met her loving grandchildren, Alexandra & Max, she would have really enjoyed them. I have brought my children to her tomb many times and have told them both about their meme. She will always live on through me and my children. If you get a chance say a prayer for her and hug your mother.

Daddy, I know you and momma are very happy together. We still miss you both very much. I promise I will keep your memory alive by carrying on your traditions at Christmas, pusharattas and chicken gumbo. Not a day will go by that we don't think about the two of you.

...When you couln't stay, it left a big hole in my heart. However short your time was, that you grew inside me, know that you made a big difference in my life. I'm so sorry I didn't take good care of us..I know you have forgiven me cause angels are the kindest, gentlest souls there are. I truely miss having you. I forever hold you in my heart as I would have held you so ever gently ever gently in my arms. A part of you is here with me, your dad. I know you are beautiful, wherever you are and that God is with you..

Remembering you is easy, I do it every day. It's the loneliness without you that never goes away. I laugh, I joke, I play my part but behind it lays my broken heart. I love you now and I always will, through the rainbows and the rain, through everything everyday of my life. If my love could have saved you, you never would have gone, Until you're in my arms again.

Melissa was my baby sister taken from me too early. I love her with all of my heart. We miss you and it's not fair that you left me. I need you here to make me laugh and for you to drive me crazy. Melissa love to write poetry. She liked to play basketball and to run track. SHe had a poem published nationally about a dying rose. SHe died in a car accident in which her boyfriend had a diabetic blackout behind the wheel. I held her hand while she passed and it kills me inside to know that there was nothing that I could do to save her. All I can do is love her. And I will always Teresa Dudich

Brandy was the greatest friend that anyone could ever have. She enjoyed life and loved to laugh. At age 17 her life was cut short because of leukemia. She fought a hard fight, but wasn't able to overcome it. I will forever miss her and I will always cherish her memory.

Sending my love to you Dad...I wish we could have spoken before you went away so suddenly. I will always carry that burden in my heart. No matter what our life was like, I know you loved me & I loved you. I will miss you more than words could ever describe. There is a hole in my heart. I thank you for all that you gave me, for being there when I was sad or hurting, for the fun times we had, for only wanting the best for me. May you float on the wings of the angels & watch over us. I'll be thinking of you every day in that most glorious of all places, casting your fly pole into the clear waters of the Big Hole.
Your loving daughter,
Lori

Nan, I loved you so much, and now you're gone. You were the best nan ever. Sweets, chocolate, crisps, fruit and always a pound pocket money every week. I really miss you. I'm glad you're going to be cremated, so your spirit can move on to another body. It hurts me that I never got to say goodbye to your soul, even though I'll be saying goodbye to your body on Friday at the funeral. Jake was in tears about you, and so was dad. I know, I'm only 11, and I shouldn't be so morbid, but I have to say goodbye somehow. Goodbye nan, until I meet your new body somewhere.

~Gemma, your eldest grandchild and only grandaughter~

Grandpa, If only I could tell you one more time how much I love you. If only I could tell you what a difference you made in my life. You are my hero. I will remember you always and miss you for the rest of my life. However, I am so glad that you are finally at peace. I miss our long talks and your oh so sensible answers. I miss your jokes! But most of all I just miss seeing you. I wish you had lived long enough to watch your great grand-daughter grow up. She misses you too! Even though she is so young she remembers you. She says you come and keep her safe a night. She says she talks to you. I hope this is true! Rest in peace grandpa, I miss you and love you.

In memory of sweet, precious Ben. My beloved son, who left us so quickly, without any warning. My heart remains heavy and my ears long to hear the sweet little voice that always brought me so much joy. Ben had such a sweet spirit, and was loved by every one that ever knew him. My love will always continue, and my memories never fade. With love through all eternity, your "most beautiful mommy in the whole wide world" - what you always said to me. Thank you for nine years of sweetness.

This is to mother, my best friend who left this earth way to early, and will be missed dearly. I only had 18 yrs with her, but they were the best yrs of my life, I will cherish them forever. I know that she will be my first borns Guardian Angel and that will be very special, I am hoping I have a girl first, to name her after my mother. Although I was adopted by her, I feel we had that strong mother~daughter connection. My mom will be sadly missed by all of those who knew her, including her 2 children.

A Tiny Hand

by Denise Hanstad
A tiny hand we'll never hold.
A child without a name.
Your coos and giggles
won't touch our ears,
but we loved you just the same.
The twinkle in your little eyes,
was not for us to see;
we longed to hold you in our arms,
but it never came to be.
God now holds your tiny hand,
He's given you a name;
your coos and giggles grace Heaven's ears,
but we'll miss you just the same.
The twinkle in your little eyes,
now lights the sky at night.
God holds you close in loving arms,
you're always in His sight.
A tiny hand we'll never hold,
we have no reason why;
but we'll always hold you in our hearts,
even though we said good-bye.


Kathleen Dunkley

Kathleen Dunkley, previously Clarke, previously Prescott, born Kathleen Matthews in Northampton, England. She had two children by second husband, Gerald [Gerry]Clarke. Gillian, born 27 January 1954 and Stephen, born 24 March 1958. She had a sister, Madge and two brothers, Jack and Fred. She was a wonderful woman, a terrific mother, and was loved very much. Her only weakness was an addiction to smoking, which she finally managed to conquer, before it conquered her: she died of emphysema. We miss her enormously.

February 14, 1997 Dear Mother, This week has been such a difficult one for your daughters. It has been filled with tremendous sadness surrounding the suddeness of your death mixed with celebration of the new life of your grandson, Matthew. There simply are no words to describe the intensity of our varying emotions. As your daughters, we have loved you through many of your life experiences and we continue to love you in this final life transition. We remember our childhood with you with great fondness. You were a warm-hearted mother who always put your family first on your many lists. You instilled in us important values about life and giving to others. We learned these values, not so much by your spoken words, but through your actions. There was never a time our friends were unwelcome in your home, no matter how many guests arrived with us. You always found abundance in your kitchen and we remember the joy you found in cooking for your family and for others in the community. It is with bitter-sweet sadness that we will remember you cooking breakfast for us the morning you died. You were always a very private woman who said little, but felt much. At times, you seemed driven to do the absolute best you could and the products of your labor reflected this. You smiled often and giggled a sweet laugh whenever you felt like it. You taught us to see the humor in even the most difficult times. Because of this, we know that you would want us to celebrate your life--to cry, to laugh, to remember you, and to let you go. As your daughters, we are comforted and blessed to have had this time with you. And now, we humbly send you back from where you came, knowing that you will never be far away from our hearts. Peace to you, mother. Love, Your Daughters

Richard Lester Shelton Dunn

Although you were my step father you taught me more about love and parenting than any "real" parent ever could. Not a day goes by that I haven't thought about you and thanked g-d for bringing you into our lives. Our time to together may have been short but you were by far one of the greatest influences over my life, my biggest regret is that you were unable to see how much you were able to teach me. Thank you and all my love.

John Paul Dunne
29 May 1957-14 Sep 1996
John, you will be missed immensely by your sons JP and Bryan but mostly by me. You have left me devastated and lonely. Please let your strong spirit fill our house and hearts and guide us through these hard, tough times without you on earth. Rest easy my sweet leprechaun. Your loving wife always, Barbara (BAD).

Katie Alison Dunsworth
25 Dec 1983-4 Oct 1992
Katie was 8 years old when a drunk driver snuffed out her life. Eight years is not enough time to get to know who Katie is and we will never know what she would have become. She was active in gymnastics, was in the 3rd grade. She had lots of friends. She is missed! She and her sisters Miranda and Jodi Dillon are in heaven. I will see them again someday.

Ronnie Dupree
8 Oct 1954-29 Oct 1995
You were the love of my life. We shared almost 18 years together, almost 17 of those married. Two beautiful children were created of our love for each other. You were a wonderful father, and they will always miss you. I was so lucky to have you for a husband, lover and best friend. You were so unselfish in your love for all of us, especially me. You gave me so much, taught me so much, loved me so much. I miss you terribly.

I know you are still with me, watching over me. I've had to ask you for help with my feelings and with the kids, and you've come through for me.

You touched so many lives here. Joey freaked out today when he saw someone who looked and walked and dressed just like you. He was still shaky when he told me about it tonight.

What else can I say that hasn't been said a million times or more? I'll say it again: I love you.

And I sign my name by what you always called me, because you know who it is.

Baby

I used to be so angry with you. I used to believe that you were selfish because you took yourself out of this world. We lost you far too soon. I know now that your suffering is over. I miss you. I will always remember your beautiful face. I'm sorry that I wasn't here for you to talk to when you needed someone the most. But I know that you're listening to me. Thank you.

My father. He was a resident of Atlanta, GA, since 1968, formerly of Fort Worth, TX. He and his wife, Diane, also have a home in Beaufort, SC, that he loved very much. He had back surgery March 26th then developed pneumonia. He fought valiantly. I was very proud of him. It looked like he had won the life-threatening part of the battle and then he died in his sleep. I missed him while he was alive because he was there and I was here, but now I miss him even more. There were a few times I needed him and he was there with the supportive phone calls, but he can't help me now. He loved life and he loved Diane even more. I'll always miss you, Dad; but I will start smiling and celebrate you, also.

Garrett James Durkan
11 Nov 1966-6 Mar 1995
June 4. 1996

Garrett James Durkan was born on November 14, 1966, in Miami, Florida. He was raised there, and chose to spend his life there. He had lots of close friends. The relationships he had with them were long-lasting. One of Garrett's most devoted friends, Gustavo, was also his roommate for more than eight years. He had another friend, Alan, who was one of his best friends for over twenty years, since they were in elementary school together. Then there was Kris, Stacey, Beth, Don, Frank, Ken (who helped Garrett in many ways while he was having a rough time with illness), J.C., Carlos, Robbie, Tommy, Pat, Diane, Sean, Billy, and many, many others. The bonds Garrett had with those he loved were unbreakable. His friends were an extended family. His blood-relatives, his immediate family, includes his mother, Lorraine, who he was close with, his father, Thomas, and his brother Greg and sister in-law, Susie, Greg's wife. They were close to Garrett as well. Garrett loved all of his family and his friends.

Garrett was also survived by four pets. Casey, a cocker spaniel, was adopted by Garrett and his roommate Gustavo. Fluke, Flake, and Snuffles are three stray cats that he took in. Snuffles was the most recently adopted of the three, and Garrett took him in as a kitten. Snuffles was very sick with pneumonia and near death when Garrett found him. Garrett, as sick as he was himself at the time, nursed the kitty back to health. Garrett's friend Kris adopted Snuffles after he passed away. Garrett loved his pets.

Garrett had many jobs in his adult life, everything from waiting tables to bartending. The job he liked the most, however, was with American Title Corporation. They are (or were, I'm not sure) on Brickell Drive in downtown Miami. This was the last job he worked before he had to go on disability. He was proud of his work there. He started at the bottom, and was a supervisor of an accounting department when he left. Working there made him feel important, and it made him feel good about himself. He was good at what he did, and he knew it. So did everyone with whom he worked. So did everyone else he knew for that matter. The truth is, we could not shut him up about it, or anything that he decided to go on about! Garrett was relentless, but in a very cute way, and completely harmless.

Garrett loved to travel. Not all over the world or anything, but three places come to mind: New York city, Atlanta, and Key West. He absolutely yearned for his next trip to New York! He always had a good time there.

The music he liked varied, but two songs I remember him consistently noting as favorites were Close to Perfection by Miguel Brown, and Talk Talk's It's my Life. Garrett had his favorite television shows too. The English sitcoms Absolutely Fabulous and Are You Being Served? were two he liked to watch. His favorite character on Are You Being Served? was Mrs. Slocombe, played by Mollie Sugden. He got a kick out of how she always changes her hair color. Also, he never missed Murphy Brown, and he liked to watch Rosanne and the television drama series Sisters. There were others, but these, in particular, come to mind.

Garrett had one huge pet peeve. That is, bad service. No matter where he went, whether it was to eat out in a nice restaurant (he liked the Chart House), or at Taco Bell, he always received the worst service. If something was to go wrong with anyone's order, it would have to consistently be with Garrett's. And of course, he loved to eat out. He loved table service, even though it was usually bad. To us, to all of his friends, it became a joke. It was very true, but it was kind of funny. It drove Garrett crazy though. As much as he enjoyed eating out, he despised bad service.

I met Garrett in September of 1990, and again in January of 1991. We began dating then. He was my first love. I was his as well, according to the last entry in his personal journal in August of 1994. We were together for 2 1/2 years. It was not the best relationship, and it definitely had its bad moments, too many to count, but there were a lot of very good times as well. He taught me a lot, without even knowing it. After the relationship ended, we remained in each others' lives, significantly. We eventually let go of all ill feelings we had for each other that came with the breakup, and we became closer than we ever were as lovers. He became someone I trusted, completely, and loved wholeheartedly and unconditionally. He became my friend. Though we did not spend as much time together as friends, he was, for a time, the most significant person in my life. I will always be grateful for having the chance to know him, and to love him. I miss him terribly.

Garrett was very sick for well over a year or more before he died, and the last four months or so were particularly bad. He did fight though. And he was not alone. There was someone by his side, 99% of the time, for the last three weeks he was alive and at Mercy hospital. Garrett's doctor, Donna Jacobson, was very compassionate, and the care she gave was exceptional. It was amazing to me to see how everyone came together when Garrett was sick in the hospital. Not only his friends came though. Ann and Milli worked in the office where Garrett went for radiation therapy, and they visited him in the hospital too. His favorite nurse, Brenda, paid special attention to him, and cared for him like he was her own family, not knowing him before he went into the hospital. She was not working the night he died, and was phoned by another nurse. Brenda made it a point to come to Garrett's side, with all of us, that night. We were all there when he passed away on March 6, 1995. Garrett was loved very much by so many people. The influence he had on all of our lives is remarkable. We were all, for a time, very misplaced without him. His death, as sick as he was for all that time, was an incredible loss to so many people.

So, over a year later, I decided it was time to contact the Names Project Foundation in San Francisco, California, and make a Quilt panel for Garrett, and for myself. Garrett will always be a part of who I am now, and he will always be a part of each of us that he moved. I made this panel because I want everyone, everywhere, to know what a wonderful effect Garrett had on those of us who loved him. I want everyone to know how much he is missed, and loved. And, most importantly, I want everyone to see how AIDS hurts us all. I want people to look at the Quilt panel and know that a great life was lost because of AIDS, that it brings pain to so many people, and that it does not have to happen.

Sincerely,

Joseph M. Di Liddo, Jr.

You were the most AMAZING grandma in the world. We think about you everyday. As kids we LOVED staying with you in Youngstown and going to Sparkle Market. You would give us a quarter and we would go buy candy. We loved our summers with you. You are now in Heaven with Grandpa (Papa Jimmy) and are looking down on us with a smile. You really made a HUGE impact on your grankids. We still talk about you all the time. Love, Amy, Kelli, Krissy, Marc (grandkids) Margaret (daughter) and Baby Jake (great-grandson) xoxoxo

Never a day goes by without me thinking of you.
I visit you every day just to let you know you're still in my heart,you are not alone.
I wish I had time to say farewell but I know you are with me at all times and this gives me great comfort.
Rest in peace my darling son until we meet again in that great heaven above.

Forever in my thoughts (mum)

Dad, I will always love you, and I will always miss you. You are with me in my thoughts and dreams at all times. Mom and Timmy are fine and happy. Mom misses you a lot. She has a two pictures of you by her pillow. She talks to you a lot too. I hope you hear her, it would mean so much to her if you responded. You have been gone for 5 years now, I'm 14 now. People say I look a lot like you. I have your shape face, and your feet. I sometimes wish you were still here, but I do have the room you and mom were going to get once it was built. Your old room still smells like you. Mom kept all your ties, she says she's not ready to give them away yet. She hasn't taken your voice off the answering machine yet either. Every time Aunt Nancy calls she almost cries. I have to go and do math homework. I'm in Geometry now, the advanced math class. I think if you were here you would be proud of me, Mom says you would. I guess I'll see you around some time, I love you, Stefanie

Missed greatly! Born in 1962, she left husband Arthur, parents Paul & Mary Selzo, brother Michael, sister Trina Carbonneau and several nieces and nephews. She was a graduate on North High School in Worcester, MA and a graduate of the School of Art at the Worcester Art Museum. She worked at Achorn Graphics of Worcester before her illness.

She was the greatest aunt anyone could ever have. I remember that every halloween she used to dress up. but sadly she was diangosed with cancer. so for a couple of years she fought hard. the doctors said she wouldn't see the christmas of '98 but she did and lived for another year she got worse during that year. my dad and i drove down to virginia from our house in new york. so I saw her one last time before we left she said,"you are the best nephew I had" well a couple of weeks later I woke up and saw my mom siting on my bed and she told me that she passed away. so we went down for the funeral. All through the funeral I kept thinking she's gone she's really gone. so if you can hear me you were the greatest aunt I could have. so here's to you.

Here's an appreciative word for a much loved Dad and husband who tragically died in August of this year. A life long Liverpool FC fan Im sure he's driving all the Man U fans in heaven a bit crazy at the moment.

We loved him so dearly and will miss his humour and his loveable persona. I especially will miss him and all his worldly advice. He leaves a wife and two sons aged 13 and 22. May God rest his soul and although he's out of sight he's not forgotten. (Im sure he's chatting to Bill Shankley right now) I'll see you again Dad. I love you.
