MICHAEL'S STORY
The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words left unsaid and deeds left undone.
---Harriet Beecher Stowe
Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you.
Twas heaven here with you, I loved you so.
---Isla Paschal Richardson
Someday, we will all meet again,
in a place of perfect beauty and peace.
For now, please remember how many gentle, caring thoughts Are with us.
"Never let the pain of loss run deeper than the remembrance of love. For if it does, cherished memories will be lost and eternal purpose will be forgotten."
May Michael's Wings keep you warm and safe for eternal life.
Always remember how very special you are Mikey....

"Life is eternal and love is immortal;
And death is only a horizon,
And a horizon is nothing
Save the limit of our sight."
--- Rossiter W. Raymond
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not meant to be,
So he put his arms around you
and whispered "Come to Me".
With tearful eyes we watched you,
as we saw you pass away.
Although we loved you deeply,
we could not make you stay.
Your Golden Heart stopped beating,
hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
I grouped all the quotes and verses that I used throughout my pages onto these pages for easy reference. You may search by page to find a certain verse.
"Go as far as you can see, and when you get there, you will see farther. "
Looking back on the memory
of the dance we shared,
beneath the stars above,
for a moment all the world was right.
How was I to know
that you'd ever say goodbye?
And now I'm glad I didn't know
the way it all would end,
the way it all would go.
Our lives are better left to chance.
I could have missed the pain,
but I'd have had to miss the dance.
---Garth Brooks, The Dance
Memories live forever,
They grow richer through the years,
They are nurtured by our laughter,
They are watered by our tears.
Memories live forever,
sent from heaven up above
To eternally connect
To the people that we love.
The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.
---Unknown
"The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity. Seneca Death is not extinguishing the light; it is putting out the lamp because dawn has come."
