To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

To our dear nephew Johnny,
Our memories of you are simply great. We remember when you came down in New Brunswick for a few weeks, you would just love fishing and being outside with our kids, your cousins. And when we would go visit in the Niagara region, you would always manage to find quality time to spend with us. It wasn’t much time since we lived so far but it was the best. It’s so hard to know that you’re not around and we will miss you so very much. Garret and Colin your dad was just a great easy going young man! Uncle Anthony and Aunt Shirley loved his company and will miss him very much.
To our niece Chantel, John and Carroll our thoughts are with all of you.

Johnny,
It's been a long time, but I remember many great times we had as kids, running about Tonnawanda, trips to Concessies for candy, stunt man tricks, tough guy contests, fishing, and conning my dad to take us to "Old Man Rivers"......You were my big cousin, the football player, the baseball player, and outdoors man.
In my heart we will always be the boys of summer running about Tonnawanda. Playing Marco Polo in the pool, jumping ramps on the Huffy, stealing cookies from the jar in the kitchen. We were summertime scoundrels, the boys club, champions against the neighborhood.
Rest well,
you will be missed.
Mikey

As a fellow football referee and former Canadian, Woody and I felt a certain kinship as we worked together on the field. It was a joy to know him. Rest in peace, my friend. You will be missed.
