Eternal Gift of Love

Touched by morning sun
In the gentle dawn of spring,
I think of you, and smile.
Bright memories wrapped in golden ribbons,
Warm my heart with countless candles,
Reflections of your life, in me.
Dreams of shining castles, and
Reunion's sweet embrace
Carry me through time on angel wings.

But I celebrate the glorious joy of today, and
Treasure its many gracious gifts,
Lessons beautifully engraved on my heart
In your handwriting,
Your eternal gift of love to me.

It's been 18 years since you have received
The greatest of all presents
In the presence of the King.
The same gentle, strong, scarred hand holds yours, and mine.
A mere lifetime could never keep us apart.
Your life forever sparkles
In the sacred brilliance of eternity.

In memory of my daughter, Jessica Ryan Francis, who passed away February 17, 1983.

He was a good husband and a good father. He fought cancer for nine years and lost the final battle. His smile, his sense of humor and his confidence in other will be missed.

Good-bye, Dad! I love you!

A loving father, grandfather and friend You are gone but not forgotten.

A fine lady with a loving heart, loved very deeply by her two daughters, Vicki and Lisa, and by her loving husband, Norton.

Kristen-Krissy, died on June 6,1997 after being in a car accident on June 5. Her "life" was softball, and she was returning from a softball banquet at the high school she attended. Kristen had a smile that could light up a room, and did many times. Her dream was to become a neonatologist, and I have no doubt in my mind she would have made a great one. Krissy, I hope you know how much we all love you and miss you. This is by far the hardest time in all our lives. We will do our best until we can all be together again. Keep watching over us....okay? We love you, Mom

A loving grandmother, mother and friend to many. We love you as always

My sister, My friend, a wonderful mother and wife...we miss you so much Vicki.

To Victor Frankl, survivor of the Holocaust, thinker, psychologist and lover of humanity. If you are suffering, read his books and find strength. If you cannot understand your tormentors, read his books and find meaning. Here is your new home on Earth, Victor. I can't help wondering what you would have thought! This is eternal life. Hoping that you have at last found eternal peace, Alison xxx

For Susan the dearly loved mother of Omoka,Derek and Carl,we will miss you dearly. ....Carried away on a moonlight shaddow....see you in heaven one day! With all my love Brian.

WE LOVE YOU BUT GOD LOVES YOU BEST
YOUR SISTERS AND BORTHERS

Hi Daddy. Its been 1 year 4 months & 3 days since you left. Although the tears are more controlable they will never be gone. I love & miss you more all the time.. I talk to you every day & I can only hope that you hear me. Your time here was way to short, but Im so happy that you are finally not in pain physically or mentally. You always told people I was your best friend & you didnt know what you had ever done to deserve me or my love. What did I say? Your my Daddy, how could I not. & we'de both be crying. Watching you suffer was the hardest thing I had ever had to expierience except the day I found you had passed away. Am I sorry your gone? Of course I am but I am so glad that you were blessed enough to pass in a heart beat. So now for everyone who never knew you ..... My Dad had a HUGE heart, made of gold . He was the 1 who would be there to help & you wouldnt even have to ask. If he knew you needed, He'de see to it that you had it. My Dad was by no means perfect. We all have our faults, which unfortunitly several in our"Family" seemed to have forgotten..while saying " well I dont care . hes not welcome to stay in my home. O'well, Im sorry he's sick, but thats not my problem"....... Funny how the ones with the most skeletons will be the 1st to throw all the stones, isnt it??? I, in my entire life may have heard my Dad say an ill world about 2 people & those words were very lite. He never wasted his time bad mouthing, or judging. He spent his time working, in most circumstances working for others who didint want to work .... While he was on a walker & with a cathater He worked double shifts for almost an entire week just because people neglected to show up. Years ago, when I 1st had my Children,MY Dad went to jail for me because he knew I had no money for groceries. He went to the store, took a pack of bologna & a loaf of bread to bring to me for my 3 Children & was caught. He knew he was off to jail. He told them the situation & begged to be able to bring the food to me before he went to jail ( since jail time was MORE than paying for it ) He was refused. The food went in a Dumpster. Funny how that worked. Is stealing right? No, I think not, but I do think that in that situation @ after many attempts @ trying to locate help for his Family, I do more than think it was a forgivable crime. When MY Dad called you "Friend" he ment it! He would bend over backwards for you & NEVER ask for ANYTHING in return. I have SO much more to tell everyone about MY Dad but there is no possible way to put it all here. He is missed by his TRUE friends & will ALWAYS be loved & missed by me. Daddy, Your unconditional love for me got me through so much in my life. YOU & YOU ONLY have been the 1 person in my life who loved me in spite of anything I could ever do or say. You know how this so called "Family" is. One day they say they "love" you & the next if your not marching to the beat of their drum... your crap.I really have to think that most of them have absolutly NO idea what LOVE is.For those who claimed to "Love" one day & turn it off the next.. I feel pitty for you.. What a sad way to be.You missed SOOOOO much.Daddy, You were the 1 person who NEVER thew stones . You NEVER had alterior motives when you helped anyone. You NEVER had 2 faces, what people saw is what they got... & I thank you for passing that traight on to me.... So when you asked what you had ever done to deserve me or my love.. All of the above & so much more... (((((((((((((XXXXX)))))))))) You will NEVER be forgotten & I feel SO blessed to have had you in my life & to have been able to call you MY DAD!!!!!!! You be happy & do EVERYTHING you couldnt while you were here.... Feel loved Daddy, cause you are!!!! ~Kim~ XOXOXOXOXO

Our little Beloved Douglas.....Now an angel in paradise!

How do I tell anyone, how much I miss my best friend, my Grandma. She was a tiny spirited woman. With the love of God and her four siblings in her heart. When I think of her now, I smile and cry as well. I could tell her anything and she kepted it close to her heart. When she passed away, all her children were near her. And as she slipped away, I saw compassion, great love, and sorrow in her children. Most of all I saw a side of my Momma I never saw before. The table had turned, now grandma was the infant like child and my momma, was cuddling her mother and calling her my baby, my darling, with tears in her eyes and pain her voice. The one thing my Grandma prepared me for,was that moment, when I would never hear her voice again. Her confictions in God and Jesus Christ were forever strong, like herself. I remember a few years back, we thought she was going home to be with her Lord. But it wasn't her time yet. And boy she was mad about that too. For she said she was ready to meet Jesus. I wrote a poem for her at the time. And on Grandparents Day I sang it in our small country church, to her. I'll never forget it as long as I live. She stood with a rose in one hand and her cane in the other and blow me a kiss. I will treasure that moment in my mind and heart for always.And now my poem for her called "Grandma's Love". "She did her best,she had her time, she loved one God for all her life. Now she's gone, but just from sight. Grandma, you left a chain of love to last us all our life. What a friend she has in Jesus, Just a Rose will do,Amazing Grace, How Great tho Are, Grandma we love you. Grandma with her southern lady ways, her gentle touch is hard to find these days. She never made an enemy, all who knew her was a friend. And what ever we did right or wrong, she was with me til the end. Grandpa he worked hard for all his life. Raising his babies with his loving wife. One time when I was small I heard about another, a boy child born though the night, Jesus took him from his mother. What a friend she has in Jesus, Just a Rose will do, Amazing Grace, How Great tho Are, Grandma we love you. Amazing Grace, How Great tho Are, Grandma, we'll always love you." I sang this at her funeral. It wasn't hard to do. I knew in my heart where she was then, watching from above She believed in me, and loved what I wanted in life, to sing for people every where. Life is harder for the living, for we know we have to let go. But not of the memories. My mother is her oldest daughter, Sarah F. Moore. And for that I thank Grandma for giving life to momma. Just so I can love them both, as long as the good Lord will let me, til forever. Your loving grand-daughter
Linda Ann

This is a memorial to my cousin Chris. Life put you through hell, I know, but you were a fighter all the way. Ive taken lessons from your struggle and from your death. Your legacy will carry on.....I promise you that. I'll never forget you. Now you can rest. Goodnight.

In Loving memory Our father, Harold H Franks, was a great father and a great man to his eight children. We love you Dad

My mother was a hero to many people. She was a great-grandmother, a grandmother, a mother, and a sister. She was born in Salem, Massachusetts, to a Canadian couple from Levy, Quebec. In 1940, she married a Scottish American and lived all over the country. Later in life, she taught driver's education in New Hampshire and was the oldest state employee upon her retirement at age 77. Less than a year later, she was killed by a speeding driver in Maryland while visiting her youngest daughter, Brenda. Her memory lives on in the songs of birds, in the white light outlining clouds at sunset and in the gentle sweet smell of Easter lilies. She is in heaven now with her parents and her Lord. We will miss her every day and we will treasure her influence in our lives.

You were taken from all too soon...your love and your works remain with us always, as a reminder of who you were..you are no longer in pain..but with the one you love...take care of our brother, sis..I miss both of you.....Mari Whitehead

WILLIAM C. FRAZIER
1954-2003

Don't grieve for me for now I'm free. I'm following the path God laid for me. I took his hand, I heard him call, I turned it back and left it all.

I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work, or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I found that peace at the close of the day.

If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy! 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 if tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much, good friends, good times, a love one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts, and share with me, for God wanted me now, he set me free!

Mom, we miss you, you will be in our hearts always. Teri and Monica

Too soon gone. She was fun, she was caring, she was loved. She is missed terribly by her kids- Danielle, Paris, Philip and Brooke; by her lover, Diane - and by her friends Chris and Jan. We love you.

Dear Justin,

I'm thinking of you on this day, September 11, 2003 - a day which I will honor by being aware of my spiritual goals - to heal myself as much as I can, and to bring more healing energy to our planet. You were my greatest mentor, my primary Guru. A part of you lives on through me.

Forever in my memory, thoughts and prayers.

Love,
Mara

Godbrother, we were always so close, even through our disagreements.
I know we had grown apart over the years, but you always knew that I
loved you, always. Your life may have been taken in vain, but your memory
and your soul will rest in peace. Love you always, Godsister Tonika

To my father, who will long be remembered as a loving husband and father, and to all others a gentleman.
I'll miss you dearly,

A dedicated mother, a loving wife, and an extraordinary friend. You will always live in our hearts.

Loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, teacher, friend. Al leaves behind his wife Barbara; daughters Victoria Gianakos and Alexandra Freer Balko, and a grandson Jacob Robert Freer Balko. Al was a teacher and delighted

Daphne Freimuth is my grandmother. She is the mother of my father, Joseph Freimuth.

Words can sometimes be so comforting and eloquent; they can capture a moment so beautifully that we feel connected across time and space. We feel connected as human beings and we temporarily think that we might understand the higher purpose. But then a tragic turn of events unfolds, and all that we know is no more. This is the case with Joseph F. French, III (Joey). I have read widely and thought that I felt connected with the world around me; however, I have never imagined or experienced despair until saw this beautiful individual lying lifeless before me. This is yet another example of a life unfulfilled, brought to an untimely end at the hands of a drunk driver. This was a person whose family loved him dearly, whose friends mourn still, and whose potential will forever go unfulfilled. As I write this six years later, I still feel cheated. I will never see his smiling, handsome face, or hear his voice again. I will always feel cheated until the time comes that I see him again. His life touched more lives than he would have ever imagined, and not a day goes by that he isn't missed by many. Every single day I mourn him, and the children he will never have, and all the times we should have spent together. He was beautiful and kind and gentle and I will miss him always.

Goodbye Kristen,
Your life was just beginning and you had such a promising life in front of you, but such a monster took it all away, you and Leslie lost so much. you will not be remembered by the gory details from the media and famous court trial, but rather, from who you were before all this....young, loving beautiful, and smart. We know you are resting now.

Kristen French.....1976-1992
may God take your spirit and bind it up with all the rest in the skies of heaven

In memory of a wonderful Mum who fought so bravely against cancer.

You will be forevever in our hearts and always in our thoughts.

You were the glue that held our family together and you are missed by all of us. I know that you were brought to us for a reason by someone very, very special and for that reason you became very, very special your self. You taught us to love and I know that you are in a special place waiting for your family to join you. Some are already with you and some of us are hoping to be there too someday. You were loved in life an you are missed in death. Peace be with you sweet friend.

Blessed are The peacemakers ,for they shall be called the sons of god .matt5:9 God needed an angel in heaven ,just any angel wouldn't do he needed an angel of laughter so He chose you. He needed someone who could stir up heaven and make the other angels smile,for even God loves a good joke every once in awhile. He needed an angel with heart and freckles were required too He needed a peacemaker so He chose you. We won't cry because you're gone ,for in our hearts you will live on ,in every sunset in every dawn ,in every ray of sunshine we look upon ,in every sound of laughter we'll remember with joy God needed a special angel so He chose our little boy.

Mother, you are missed by all of us. You were our friend. You are now with the rest of the family, in GOD's house. You now join our other guardian angels. With much love and affection. Nadja Lee, Toni, Mikel and Nicky and all the grandchildren

Mitch: You certainly had your share of problems. Unfortunately, you were unable to overcome them and they are the cause of what took you away from me. I will miss you forever. Your loving sister, Michelle

Dad, may you rest in peace and find forgiveness with the Lord. Nadja Lee, Toni, Mikel and Nicky and your grandchildren

Oh Mother... You were never very religious, but I know you are with the angels now. You were always so kind to our animals.. ok, MY animals, and you so diligantly made sure that the rabbit was fed and watered, and that the dogs were brushed. I decided to write what i miss most about you not being here... And I want to be honest about how I feel, now that you are gone. I never knew much, other than cancer, and you going for kemo, bald headed and sick.... It seems like thats all I can remember, but I know that is not true. I remember us baking bread, a long lost tradition. Your hands were wrinkled, unlike any i have ever seen before,or will ever see again. They were mommys hands. You used those hands to help me practice the piano every day... repeating the moves over and over. you would be so proud of me now, Mommy. I have a real job at a music store, and I teach a lot of students now. Was music what you wanted for me? I remember playing in the big field with buster and sadie, and puppy, and an assortment of neighborhood kids. we used to waid through the waist long grass, making a trail behind us. I remember rescueing the kittens from our home in grandview.. what a long time ago, almost 12 years... I remember when they told me you were going to die. I said ok, but in my heart, I thought you would pull through... you always did. I remember how my heart broke when paul came to my aunts, where I was staying, and told me you were gone. I didnt cry. Mommy, I got the rat that we always planned on... actually two. and I take care of them, with out your reminders. Me and Paul get by.. but It is so different.... I love you, mommy, Dont let me forget you... Your loving daughter Andrea... aug. 3, 1998

Beloved daughter of Michael and Barbara Nerswick Fried

Our daughter, Emily was just 10 years old when she died of complications from leukemia. She was diagnois Dec. 15, 1996. So she just lived 4 months. When she received her high dose of chemotherphy, her ability to fight off infections went to "0" and unfortunately she did get sick. Her fungal infection was called "aspergillus"and it was in her trachea. When they scoped her throat the doctors didn't find the infection growing, just the after-math, which looked black and scaley. It had weakened her throat and also weakened a main artery near her throat. She bled to death thru her mouth. We had to witness this and the heartache is unbearable. Emily loved to learn about things. She enjoyed watching TV, especially the educational channels, reading books about facts, she yearned to listen to people, with any interesting stories. In return Emily would tell us things that we never had a slightess idea on. We would ask her where she had heard that from and she would say - from school, TV, read it in a book or "I just knew it". She was always happy to help others, never had a bad thing to say about anyone. She always looked at things in a positive way. We knew she was an exceptional child. We will see her in heaven and the days are just too long. I pray that the good lord will take me to her soon. I love you Emily!!!!! Mom

We always think of tommorow filled with so many hopes and dreams. We think tommorow will be just like any other day, a beginning and an end, never really saying what is in our hearts, because there will always be another day. If I could have that day back there would be so much I would say. I would tell you that I love you one last time, tell you that you meant the world to me and how you were in my thoughts everyday. I know you are in a better place watching over all of us. But all I want is you here with me, my dear beloved mother. I love you now and I will love you always.

Love
Julie

Terza Friedman was one of a kind. she died at the age of 54, from a cancer in her head.
She was a very special woman and mother. she was the best woman that any one can ask for. She died to young and before her time. One of the reasons that she wasn't strong enough to fight for her life was her heartless husbend that she had, a man with out honour or respect for his wife and family, he is the one that had to be in her place but that is lif, always the good are taken from us with out being asking.
a riesn.

You are with me every day.---Give Willie a kiss for me. Your Loving daughter Naomi and family

FROM A DISTANCE

A year of total loss
Full of sadness and pain
There seemed no end
Only tearful rain

The moment I lost you
I lost myself
You took a part of me on your journey
I still remember how that felt

You were slipping away
Nothing left to do or say
Life was gone to soon
Replaced by the fear
Awaiting that final day

Your strength was astounding
As was your courage
You taught us all so much
With you own heart language

I'm daily aware of the strength
You have given to me
The courage I have felt
The knowledge of someday being with you again

Rest peacefully Mom and enjoy
You can finally experience the true beauty of God's love
From a distance I know you are here
For today I am filled with memories
Of your undying love

I love you Dusty and words can't explain how much I miss you you were my brother and my best friend

dear grandpa,
I miss you every day, nothing has been the same since you are gone, nobody gets along anymore and just one hardship after another..
I miss you so much love your granddaughter trudy

To a dad who died before I got to know him. Only now can the world know how much I miss him.

I Touched Your Face Today

I touched your face today and watched you for awhile,
I talked of things deep in my heart and wished I could make you smile,
I rubbed your head and told you, I�m proud of you my son,
For all the little things you did and the way you did each one,
You show such courage daily and you teach me how to live,
To make each moment count in life and to give what I can give,
Did I tell you "Your my hero" when I saw you yesterday?
Or did it slip my mind as I put you away?
I know your time on earth was short, but it�s how you lived each day,
You made the most of what you had and always found a way,
To touch the hearts around you, to love while you may,
I wish with all my heart right now, the face I touched today,
Wasn�t made of paper or neatly placed away,
But I will put you on the shelf again for all the world to see,
I�ll talk to you tomorrow just like I do each day,
And I�ll tell you "Your my hero " as I slowly walk away.

You were cruelly taken from us before you were born, never to be held as you should have been and since we were not told your sex, we could not give you a name. May the angels keep you safe my darling. I wrote this in memory of you : Oh, Baby Fryer, Taken away from us, Before you were born, We were so heartbroken, devestated and torn. Oh, Baby Fryer, It's nice to hope, That you could have been a boy, Played soldiers with big brother Danyal, And pinched all of his toys. Oh, Baby Fryer, We also hoped that, You may have been a girl, Had cute little dimples, And beautiful golden curls. Oh, Baby Fryer, Just one more thing to say, The memory of you, Is in our hearts, And there you will always stay. We will love you always. Mammy & Daddy.
