Rusty and Cookie,
I just found out tonight about your loss. I wish I had known sooner so that I could have been there tonight. I am so sorry for your loss and hope that God gives you strength during this very trying time in your lives. I can't imagine what you are going thru since I still have my wife and my 3 siblings. I know she is in a better place now but I also know that that does not make it any easier on you. I will keep both of you in my thoughts and prayers. God bless you both and God bless your families

Uncle Rusty, Gina, Little Rusty - I am so sorry... We continue to pray for peace, comfort and strength for the entire family. Aunt Patsy was truly one of the kindest, sweetest people... I was extremely thankful to see her in June and Aug this past summer (she looked great!) and introduce Karen to her and Uncle Rusty. Through the sadness and sorrow please know that her spirit is at peace and the memories of her bring warmth to all of our hearts.

What a glorious family reunion there will be in heaven...

"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away" (Revelation 21:4).

With love, Graham & Karen and family

Russ,
My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family at this most difficult time. It's been such a long time, since we were all together (You & Pat, Angelo and Red, Art and Jan, Tom and me), but I will never forget those times and the love that surrounded them. I miss you all. I love you all dearly and I am so sorry and regretful that I drifted away. Life just seems to take some bad turns, more often than we would like. May your source of strength be in knowing that Pat is with our Lord, free of suffering. God bless all of you. We will all be together again.
Sincere Sympathy,

October 20, 2008

I know you're in a better place now Aunt Patsy. You were too kind, and always had a smile on. I love you very much and thank you for everything throughout the years. I will miss you dearly.

Love always,
Margo

Doni

October 20, 2008

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.
