Maureen, Jack and Elizabeth,
So sorry for the loss of your beautiful son, Patrick. You are in my prayers.

God's Borrowed Child:

"I'll send you for a little time,
A child of mine," He said,
"For you to love him while he lives
And mourn for when he's dead.

"It may six or seven years
Or twenty-two or three,
But will you till I call him back,
Take care of him for me?

"He'll bring his charms to gladden you
And should his stay be brief,
You'll have these precious memories,
As solace for your grief. "I cannot promise he will stay
Since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there
I want this child to learn.

"I've looked this whole world over,
In my search for teachers true.
And in the crowds that throng life's land,
I have selected you.

"Now will you give him all your love
Not think the labour vain,
Nor hate me when I come to call
To take him back again?"

It seems to me I heard them say,
"Dear Lord, Thy Will be done.
For all the joys thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.

"We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known
Forever grateful stay.

"And should the angels call for him
Much sooner than we'd planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes
And try to understand.

Patrick was a handsome young man, always a gentleman very polite and I could tell he came from a good family. God be with him and with your family. May the angels guide him into Heaven where he lives forever in peace. He will remain in your hearts and will be forever young. JS
