Baby Kai, We miss you. You lived only a short few days. I know that your sister will miss you too, even if she can't remember you now. Twins have a special bond, even if it is severed so soon after birth. Kali knows you even now. I love you my son, and we will all miss you greatly! Lovingly, Daddy Minya, Momma Jasmine, and Baby Kali

Yitzhak Rabin
1 Mar 1922-4 Nov 1995
TEL AVIV, Israel -- Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated at a peace rally Saturday night in Tel Aviv's Kings Square, a top aide confirmed. He was reportedly shot in the arm and back by a Jewish man in his mid-20s who is allegedly affiliated with right-wing extremist groups.

Rabin was walking to his car after the rally when he was shot. The 73-year-old prime minister later died in surgery at Ichilov Hospital in Tel Aviv.

Yitzhak Rabin was born in Jerusalem on March 1, 1922.  In 1941 Rabin joined the Palmach, Jewish defense forces.  He took part in operations against Vichy, France in Syria. During the war of Independence, Rabin commanded the forces, charged with the defense of the approaches to Jerusalem. Rabin rose through the ranks of the IDF, attaining the position of Chief of Staff in 1964. He commanded the IDF during the Six Day War. In 1968 he became Israel's Ambassador to Washington, where he remained for 5 years.

Upon his return to Israel, Rabin was elected to to the Knesset. After the resignation of Golda Meir, in 1974, Rabin became the Prime Minister, a post he held until 1976 when he resigned over a scandal regarding his wife's holding a foreign currency account. With the creation of the National Unity Government in 1984, Rabin served as Defense Minister.

In 1990 he joined the rest of the Labor government in opposition. Then, in 1992 Rabin led the labor party to victory at the polls on a platform of conciliation with the Arabs. Rabin negotiated a peace agreement with the PLO granting the Palestinians autonomy.

In September 1995 Rabin signed the Oslo II agreement with the PLO which granted further autonomy to the Palestinians. He was killed on November 4th at a peace rally by a right wing Israeli fanatic opposed to the peace agreement.

I'll never forget that sunday when you looked so happy and full of life only to leave us that tuesday leaving a wife(Patrice) and Four children(Kyle22,Blake21,Reid16,and Wyatt8)to go on about with our every day lives trying not to think of the bad but only the good.

For my sister...

And God who gives his mercies, takes his mercies.
And God who gives the beginning, gives the end.
I dread my death, but 'tis the end of curses;
A rest for broken things too broke to mend.

Remembering you always,
Linda

After a long journey that began in Chicago on January 12, 1928, my dad departed this life peacefully on May 21, 2000, while holding my hand, just as he did when I was Daddys little girl.

He was welcomed into Heaven by my sister, Diane, my grandparents, John and Josephine, my Aunt Roseann, and my Uncle John.

Those who remain here to sadly mourn his loss with me are my husband, Jay, my children, Kristie, Jay, Bryan and Caitlin, my brothers, John & Rob, my nephews, Danny, Chris, Johnny and Michael, my nieces, Cherish and Rachel, and my mother, Dorothy.

Dad, we always knew right from the beginning, you and I, that we shared a special connection. You have given me more than you could ever know and much of what I value in myself came from you. This, I will carry with me through the rest of my life.

Until we meet again...
Always your loving daughter,
Linda

Dear Danelle

What a mighty battle you fought against dual cancers breast and melanoma; beating all the odds, outliving many 'die by' dates.

It was impossibly hard to leave you knowing we would never see each other again. You left without me by your side, but you were not alone. Many cared for you, and some were by your side.

This is my personal memorial to you to let you know I will always remember you. We shared a mighty love for 'our' grand daughter Parris, whom I will always treasure in both our names.

Till we meet again Danelle

My father died suddenly of congestive heart failure on November 12th. He was a very loving man who loved everybody. He was known as "Sonny" beacuse of his bright witts. He left behind 1 daughter, Lori, 1 son, Rick, a loving wife and his best friend and grandson, Jordyn.
He was a respiratory therapist for many years and was known and loved by his coworkers. He also was promoted to superviser.He was much respected by many people and was very good at the computer. He had a way about himself and was quick to crack a joke. Many people are very depressed at the fact we never got a chance to say good bye. He left a huge hole in alot of our hearts. I loved my father very much and I am proud to be his daughter. This man will bring much sunshine to heaven because he sure gave it to us.

My dear aunt Colleen: We will all miss you so much and cherish the time we spent with you. I think about you everyday. I will always love you. My heart broke when you left us and is still broken. We will remember the smiles that you brought to us. We will keep your children close to our hearts and guide them the way you would have wanted. I love and miss you. Your niece, Elizabeth Kelly... Incline O Lord, Thy ear to our prayers, in which we humbly beseech Thy mercy, that Thou wouldst place the soul of our beloved which Thou hast caused to depart from this world in the region of peace and light, and unite her in the fellowship of Thy saints.

To Tom. In my minds eye I see you. Places you were and little things you did. I hear your voice, repeating in my memory those short phrases of affection. I remember you as a protective and loving father to your sons and a proud Grandad to my son. I shall always save that place, where you sat at your last family celebration, as your place in the heart of our home. How poignantly I saw, we all saw, your slippers, sitting waiting for you to return. Your jacket slipped over the back of the chair as if you had just returned home. But no, your shell lies abandoned, awaiting to mingle with the soil of your ancestors. While we released our hold on your spirit at the place where your son, my beloved husband grew to adulthood. Dearest Tom, how much you shall be missed by us all. Go in peace to a better place. With all our love, Ginny, John and Ciaran

I will never forget the light in your eyes or your beautiful smile. You had such a good heart, always caring about those who had less then you. I visit the cemetary mostly everday, wearing your Air Force flight jacket comforts me. Stephanie and I miss you so much. To this day I can't believe you are gone. We miss your laughter, your love. The days and nights are lonely and quite. I will never forget you Joe. I know your daughter will never forget you or what you taught her. You were only 38 years old when we lost you, married for twenty years was simply not long enough, it is hard just thinking of growing old by myself. We had so many dreams that we never had a chance of fulfilling. We love you, and will never forget you. You will always be in our hearts. There is not one minute that I don't think about you. One day babe, we will be together again. I know you are watching over us. Love you, your wife Mary and daughter Stehanie

My mother was a beautiful woman who died too young. As a mother, a wife, a teacher and a person she was sensitive, compassionate and determined to do what was right. She was a strong believer and follower of Christ, with a beautiful, simple faith in the decency of the human race. Faced with a life that wasn't perfect, she had great inner strength. She will be remembered for many, many years by all she touched.

On this day, I seem to miss you more. My life isn't the same without you in it, I lost so much of me when you passed away, I held your hand, and watched the tear fall from your eye. To see such a great man fade away, hurt, it still does. Grandpa I love and miss you daily, I hope you and grandma are together. The hole I have in my heart and soul will never mend. Only such a great man as yourself can fill it. your loving granddaughter, Sonya

HE SLEEPS------- Your father has gone and left behind, A family bent on grief. I'm sure he wouldn't want it so, Because life is so brief. Remember how he used to be, the good times that you had. Don't dwell upon his ending days, That only makes you sad. Your father's stepped beyond the veil, But he is not alone. Family and friends who went before, Are welcoming him home. Your father has just gone to sleep, He's resting you could say. Because he knows you'll meet again, On God's judgement day. Weep no more child, dry your eyes, Don't you understand? Your fathers soul is in heaven now, Where he has God's own hand. Believe me when I say to you, He's better off this way. His body is whole, he has no pain, That's all that we can say. We love and miss you dad----Debbie, Eric and Becky. We love and miss you too grandpa---Valerie, Jessica, Aaron, Anthony, Christopher and Jordan.

In loving memory of my first born child, Matthew Lee Randolph. As summer nears, I wish to impress upon all who reads this to please watch your children very carefully in the pools and lakes that we all love to play in. In the snap of your finger your child could be gone from this earth, as my son was. He was a mere 7 &1/2 yrs old, and I miss him so very much. It's been 15 yrs. of crying for me, although I know he is with Jesus and I should be happy for him, I guess its just the selfishness thats in us all. Why was my baby taken from me, I ask? And The Great Spirit that is among us all, has told me there is a purpose.......He picks his most beautiful flowers first! At least I know he's safe, that keeps me going. I Love You Matt, Mommy

Max Elam Rankin
21 May 1928-20 Jan 1994
Though it has been three years since Max E.Rankin has gone on to a better place,with our Lord in heaven it still seems like yesterday since his passing on.He beat all odds against death and living.The Doctors said after his open heart surgery he had borrowed time.So this once truck driving man who loved his Lord,the highways,farm life and his family beat the clock til the day of his passing.He did exactly as he wanted to do,farmed his cows,mowed his grass,worked in his workshop and didn"t know a stranger.He left behind his wife Bennie J.Rankin,of Tyler,Texas;one son,Rickey Max Rankin also of Tyler,Texas;and two daughters Jeanie Maxine Rankin Robinson and Diane Michelle Rankin Warren both of Tyler,Texas;two brothers,Leonard Keith Rankin of Plainview,Texas and Donald Quinn Rankin of Russellville,Ark; six grandchildren;and four great-grandchildren.Since his passing,life has not been the same.A part of this family is broken and missing.But Fat Daddy would be proud of us.During that trying time,Max's son,(his spitting image) Rickey Max met a wonderful beautiful lady (Linda)the day after Max's passing.And Rickey married her five months later, in the church Fat Daddy loved so well.And they both are members of that church and sing gospel music together in their church and other surrounding churchs.And his son-in-law Geroge, is now a deacon in the same church with his wife,Jeanie Maxine at his side.And she is even busier then her husband doing God's work.And Diane she is finally blessed with the right man in her life.She now has her son at her side and together they can build a good life.So in death sometimes there are things that bring people to reality,that without the Lord in their life there is nothing to look forward to.I know in my heart Fat Daddy is with his first born child(Terry Max),who was taken at birth to be with the Lord.And I just bet if there is a pasture and a workshop in heaven he is busy this very moment teaching his son what to do.We know our Fat Daddy is in God"s care now.And if I have left anything unsaid about this man,I am truly sorry.For what can any of us say about a man who was one of a kind his own man.We miss you Fat Daddy and will always love you.And we are taking good care of Mother til your together again.We shall all be with you someday in your Sweet Beaulah Land.Amen

Terry Max Rankin
12 Aug 1949-12 Aug 1949
Terry Max Rankin first born child to Max Elam and Bennie J.Rankin went on to be with our Lord in the year 1949.He is a babe in the arms of Jesus's love.And now after forty seven years of being gone,he has his father with him Max Elam Rankin.What ever the reasons why our little ones are taken so soon, it is God's reasons.Maybe Terry Max has been an Angel in his families life's.Watching,protecting,maybe even guiding them though life.Terry Max your mother and father missed you dearly all these years.But they knew you were with the Lord.Now you and Fat Daddy are together and Mother misses you both now. God Bless you both in God's ever loving arms.Amen

Stavros Rassias
30 Sep 1950-17 Sep 1998
Our beloved brother, a gifted and talented musician died waiting for a liver transplant. He fought hard to live. He was enrolled in the College of Marin, in San Francisco, California, taking photography and film directing at the time of his passing, but he was most known for his music and his drumming. He played with and for some very famous rock musicians and enjoyed his life in California, even though he was a New York City native. Stavros was a funny guy, a handsome man, with a degree from the "school of hard knocks". He loved some very beautiful and interesting women in his life, although he never married. We all miss him greatly and cannot believe a man larger than life itself, has gone. May God be at your side and you still be rocking brother. We love you yesterday, today and always....... Your loving family, Marion, Nikki, Carol, Nancy and Robert and Paul

Barbara Allen Merrida Ray
30 Jun 1950-30 Apr 1999
This memorial is dedicated to Barbara Allen Merrida Ray, beloved first child, sister, mother, grandmother and friend. Barbara was diagnosed with lung cancer December of 1998, she had been in severe pain since October, by the time of diagnosis, the cancer had spread to her brain and her bones. Through it all she kept a positive, uplifted attitude, she was truly one of a kind. She was like a second mother to me and the rest of my siblings, our parents both worked and she took care of us and we had a steadfast respect and love for her. It has been almost a year since we lost her and the hurt is no less than when I received the news on April 30, 1999 at 3:30 pm. I find myself missing her more and more each day, longing to see her smile and to hear her voice, and I look forward to the day that I will see her again. We shared such special moments, we shared such joy and happiness, we shared a friendship that went beyond sister to sister, we shared such a great love for one another. I never knew that my heart could ache for so long, and I only pray that God will keep me until we are reunited again in Glory. We all miss and love you very much.

Loving You Always,

Your Sister, Georgia,

Your Mother, Ruby & Your entire Earthly Family

It's been over three months now, since you died: that's quarter of a year. People keep telling me that I'll "get used" to it - eventually. I'm not sure I ever *want* to get used to it. I want to be able to cope with it, sure, but that's not quite the same thing, is it?

Getting used to it, for me, has connotations of 'forgetting about' and I don't think that's appropriate. I'll move on - obviously - but I won't forget.

The other thing I keep thinking about is what you taught me. People keep suggesting things to remember you by - things that you taught me, but to be honest you didn't teach me much; certianly not much specific. What you did do, instead, was to teach me to *learn*, to enjoy what's around me, and never, ever (EVER!) to stop asking questions.

:-)


John Rayburn
"Pop" was the kindest, non-judgemental, person I've ever known. He treated every one the same. Everyone was special. I don't think he knew how special he was. I will never get out of my mind the "pop" that I knew and then the "pop" that was in the nursing home. It just didn't seem to be him and that is why I think he let go so fast. I don't think he ever mean't to hurt anyone's feelings, even though he did on numerous occasions. I'm not sure what I wanted from him, but I needed and still need it badly. I miss you, pop! I wish we could just sit and talk. I know that we would figure it out. I still think you are the best man that I've ever known!

This is in memory of Ivy Rayner(née Corner), who had an answer for everything! We all miss you very much, especially your unconditional friendliness and generosity towards anyone and everyone. Always had a joke close at hand. A strong spirit. This is an eternal tribute which, like our memory of you, will never fade.
Dedicated with love by Daniel, Joan & Jonathan Abbatt
