I had spent some time over the last few years trying to find Rick, I had learned sometime early last year of his unfortunate passing,
Not only was it a shock to hear, but it is still difficult to grasp..
Rick and I were pretty good friends, we attended Windsor school together, worked together at Kmart, and I used to chill at his mom's on / off of Moffatt ave.
I'm honestly not sure why or how we lost contact, but wished we hadn't.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted.
Rest In Piece Dear Old Friend!

Hi. My name is Richard Joseph Kutney. (I was born in 1963 in New Jersey.) Vickie and Joseph, I want to tell you that I am very sorry that you have lost your son. I have been aware of your son online for several years. He has the same exact name as me. And... he has made an impact on me. I feel a lot of sympathy for you and all of your children and your family. And I feel empathy too. I would like to communicate with you and your family if you want. My email address is [email protected]. I have made Ricky's Memoriam/Guest Book permanent so you and everyone can continue to leave your sentiments for Ricky. I know that somewhere in Heaven, Ricky appreciates that I did this for him to allow his family to send him your thoughts and prayers. - Rich

Today my son has been gone for 3 years now and the pain
of his death is still as bad as it was on that tragic day......
I sit tonight longing to hold you;
I just can't hold back my tears.
There were many moments with you ...
Oh ... Just not enough years.
I Remember the Pain and Joy of His Birth
Just As I Remember the Pain and Sorrow of His Death
None of us Knew you were leaving,
And By the light of the night moon,You left us behind forever grieving Loving you forever and always....

I am no longer afraid of dying,
Sometimes I think it's better than crying.
But most of all because I'll see you,
And that my dear son is what I long to do.
Mom Kutney

Day by day I think of you,
How can all of this be true?
I can't believe you're really gone,
I still can't accept it,
Even after so long.
Just the thought of you makes me cry,
I never even got the chance to say goodbye.
Every picture, every letter,
I don't know if it will ever get better.
I always smell your familiar scent,
It makes me think of all of the times we've spent.
So many things I never got to say,
I never imagined you'd ever be so far away.
You were my son,
And I loved you like no other.
In my heart you'll always be,
You’ll be my guide and help me see.
I'll never forget your soothing voice,
I would take your place if I had a choice.
But now I have to let you rest,
Although without you my world's a mess.
I miss you with all of my heart,
I wish we never had to part.
I know you're always by my side...
Rest in Peace

July 15, 2009
Dearest Rick,
Its been one year
since you've been gone,
It still seems like yesterday
We all LOVE you,
and we all MISS you,
and still want you back,
only that can never be.......
I wish so much i wouldn't cry,
the way i did today,
while thinking of the many things,
i didn't get to say.
As today starts without you,
and your not here to see;
The sun will rise and find my eyes,
all filled with tears for thee;
If I could relive yesterday,
just even for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
July 14, 2009
My dearest son, today I sat and thought, with every breath I took, of only you.
I remember when you were first born,like it was yesterday.
I just had my son, not knowing what life had in store for me or him. One day lead to the next,and then days turned into months and months turned into years.
And then an opening of the door and there you stood,a man with a heart the size of the heavens above.
Where you now live.Today,you are so far away and
I'm not being able to hold you,kiss you,
or to tell you I love you.
As i go through the hardest thing i have ever had to go through.
I dont think i am strong enough most days,
I cry for you every day.
Its been one year since you have gone.
Days go by and nights get longer, and there is no relief.
I want you to know that,i hope you are happy,loved,at peace, and will you save a place for me when its my time.
Rick, I love you,i miss you and look to the heavens each day, hoping to see you.......
Tears streaming down my face....
Forever in my Heart, Always on my mind!
Love, MoM

Hi daddy this is me. I had so much fun at grandma's house for a week. I wanted to stay 5 more days but mom and grandma said not now. Did you see me climb my rock and I slept in a tent.

Rick,
We all went camping for the 4th of July.
It was always your favorite thing to do on the 4th.
It was nice to have all the kids together and also Beckies kids.
I invited your son, so he would be there to carry on your camping tradition.
He had a Great time.
We even had the kids carry 2 tents (already set up) down the road, to our 2nd campsite, just so that Alex, George and Whylie, (the dogs) could come camping.
It was something to see.
The kids weren't thrilled, but they got both tents there in good shape.....
We all missed you and the fire wasnt the same. We barely had flames, you would have had a bonfire....LOL
The food was good, but you always cooked so much better!
It will never be the same, but we did it for you....
Till we can once again be together,
forever loving you, missing you....

Dearest Rick,
You didn't die
you just changed shape
became invisible
to the naked eye
became this grief
it's sharpness
more real
than your presence was
before you were seperate to me
entire to yourself
now you are
a part of me
you are inside my self
I call you
by your new name
'Grief...Grief! '
although I still call you
'Love.'

I love you dad and talk about you often. well daddy when we are camping over the fourth of July I know you will be with u8s and watching the fireworks with us. Daddy remember I love you it is me Chaim. I planted aplant for your grave on Father,s day and you have a banner from me that says dad.

Daddy, you’re like the sun to me,
a sure thing, always there,
beaming light and warmth on my life.
Whatever is good in me today,
I owe to your wisdom, your patience,
your strength, your love.
You taught me by example,
as a role model,
how to be my own person,
how to believe in myself,
instructing me without controlling me.
Even when we disagreed,
you held us together,
so our bond was never broken.
I understand what you did for me,
and I am so grateful that I have you
as my solid foundation, my rock.
I respect you, I admire you, I love you,
my guiding light, my loving daddy.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DADDY
I'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER
I'LL LOVE YOU FOR ALWAYS
FOR YOU WILL BE MY DADDY
FOREVER YOU AND ME!
ELIZABETH KUTNEY-KIRKPATRICK

Daddy, my sadness has no end;
I can’t believe you’re gone;
I'm grieving for you every day;
It’s hard to carry on.
You were always there to support and care,
When I needed a big hug,
How I'll never ever do without my dadddy,
I cannot comprehend.
You were my teacher and my guide,
My daddy, so good and strong;
Your example will sustain me now,
And last my whole live long.
I'm trying to communicate;
I hope that you can hear;
Expressing what I feel for you,
Helps me feel you near.
My memories of the times we had
Help the pain to go away.
But Daddy, My live won’t be the same;
I'll miss you every day.
A part of me went with you;
You left a gap too big to fill;
You’re my father and my hero;
I love you andI always will.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DADDY
All my love MoM
June 21, 2009
Dearest Rick
Loving thoughts of you
And memories of times past
They are so special to me, and memories last
Each night I say my prayers
I ask Jesus to send you my love
Thank you for being there
Your kindness makes me miss you all the more
So on this special Father's Day
And other days
You are always in my heart
I send you all my love and praise
To sit with you once again
Would be a dream come true
I would say the things I should have said
Like how much "I Love You!"
So many words were left unspoken
So many words were left unsaid
Why didn't I tell you how I felt?
I kept the words tucked in my heart
Then the Lord took you home one day
Now my words I can't impart.
I'm so sorry I never told you
Just how much I did love you
Something inside of me said 'there's no need'
I took it for granted that you knew.
So Rick I want you now to know
Even though you're on the other side
Just how much I love and miss you
That's why I continue to cry.
Missing you always Mom

HAPPY FATHERS DAY
First of all Rick, is Father Day, Fourth of July, birthdays and such celebrated in Heaven like we used to down here on earth? You know everytime we all get together, we think of how you used to love to BBQ and get the family together. Somnetimes, you were the life of the party, and sometimes you were not, but ya know what Rick? I've come to learn that however a person wants to be on this earth, that he shoudln't let other people try and make him into something he isn't and feel comfortable doing.
Now Rick, as far asI and my life go on this Fathers Day....do you remember when we used to have some very heart to heart talks before you went Home. I promised you with all my heart that I would be there to meet you......and I've had a few little problems as of late(but then when didn't I have a crisis or two in the making?), but things are going well and I plan on being the first one to greet you at the gate when He calls us mortals home. I've let my family down terribly, but hopefully, my life someday is one they can be proud of and stay proud of until I come Home to see you.
HAPPY FATHERS DAY SON!
Chiam And Elizabeth Kutney
June 21, 2009
Dear God,
Please take this message to Dad up above.
Tell him how much we miss him,
And give him all our love. Tell him Happy Fathers Day in heaven up above
He bid no one a last farewell, he said "Good-Bye" to none!
The Heavenly Gate just opened wide,
And a loving voice said "COME"!
Although his soul is now at rest,
And free from care and pain,
The world would seem like Heaven,
If we had him back again.
It broke our hearts to lose him,
But he did not go alone
For a part of us went with him,
The day God called him home!
Precious One from us is gone,
Voice we loved is Stilled,
A chair is vacant in this home,
Which never can be filled.
God gave us strength to face it,
The courage to meet the blow,
But what it has meant to lose him
No One will ever know!

If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance
I'd play a song that would never ever end
How I'd love love love to dance with my son again
If I could steal
One final glance
One final step
One final dance
I'd play a song that would never ever end
Cause I'd love love love to dance with my son again
I criy for him
I pray even more
I know I'm praying for much too much
But could you send back the son i love
I know you don't do it usually
But dear Lord I'm dying to dance with my son again
Every night I fall asleep
And this is all I ever dream

One More Day
to get through.....
Your Birthdays Here,
but not you...
Knowing,
That you won't be coming home
Its still so hard to believe
That you are gone from me to soon.
Filling my eyes with tears,
I miss your smile,
And your laughter....
I'd have done anything to keep you here,
Right here where you belong .
Grateful for every second you were here...
I talk to you daily.
Trusting that you'll hear...
Cant wait to see you again,
When you'll wipe the tears from my face,
You'll always have my love
I am sending it straight to Heaven,
With 28 balloons....
I miss you terribly....
One More Day.....
Happy 28Th Birthday to you Rick!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Friends
To see the look on your faces ,
I’m sorry for not being me,
I’m sorry for all my tears,
I’m sorry for every thing ,
The way I act,
I know you dont understand ,
I see your sadness
I see your confusion,
I am still here
I need you to care about me
I need you to understand my grief He was here and now he's not,
I am sorry for my grief
Just remember that Part of my soul is forever gone,
and i will forever feel the
emptiness it leaves inside of me. ...
I will never completely recover
But i will always be here for you
And Cherish you,
I will have bad days
but i will do better,
Just because of my Sadness,
Please dont be afraid to call on me.
Love,
Your Loving Mother

My dear Rick,
Tracks of tears
running down my face
The pain in every beat of my heart
I am crushed
My son is gone,
How can I live
Without him
Can I ever be happy
He's all I think about
Because he left me
Some days I just wish
I could run and hide
No one can see
I am miserable
My heart is broken,
I am empty inside
These tears that fall,
never go away.
The loss of him that day,
Pain that made me fall to my knees,
The answers i come to
make me cry.
Everyday i see something that reminds me of him
Followed by another;
What can i do but cry?
Never ending pain
He will always be on my mind;
The greatest loss that I've known
My son, who left to never return
Nothing can bring him back
separated by death.
Standing on his burial spot
The silence
Eyes filled with
tears falling
The despair
The sadness
The emotions
The loss of his life changes everyone.
The tragedy of the loss of you, my son,
The one I cry for,
Grief from loss
Tears streaming down my face
My son, I miss you so,
Never seeing you again
Only a heart that grieves
Can ever understand
I still miss your smile
I wake and think of you
Why do I still feel the loss
When will I understand it all
When will my heart be whole
I will mourn your loss forever
Constantly wishing for the past
Wanting desperatly to have you back,
Dear Jesus,
Please give my son back to me.

I got up early Monday and waited for your call...
Then i realized that you were not gonna call...

It was a little thing you did for me and i missed it so very much this year...
Such small things make such wonderful memories.
I LOVE YOU DEEPLY AND MISS YOU SO THAT MY HEART STILL HURTS...

Falling apart,like a broken heart that nobody expected to lose.
Destiny was calling as the thoughts slipped into your mind, and to find you on the rail not even leaving a trail.
Oh if we only knew the pain that you've been through, when i got the call i thought i'd lost it all.
The thoughts rushed through my head hoping you weren't dead, i tried to fight the tears realizing i was facing my worst fears.
As i raced to the hospital and paced to your room now thinking it'd be fine, but as soon as i crossed the line i surely changed my mind to find i'd already lost you.
Your heart was still beating but i knew you weren't there, i could tell your soul had already gone and now it wouldn't be long till your body would do the same.
Im in shame, trying to take the blame and everyone else is doing the same.
I thought i'd never stop crying although i kept trying, months have gone by and i still don't know why but i can't make myself believe your actually gone.
I was hoping it wouldn't be long and i'd start to believe it, but i can only decieve it.
Im still moping and hoping it's all just a dream, but im still left here falling you were the one i could always lean on.
I didn't want to say bye that wayy its really not fair but i guess not everybody can believe that toxic air.
Rick i miss you more than anything everyday goes by and it hurts more.
I keep asking all these questions that i need answers too.
I wrote that a couple months after you died and i still feel that way.
Big brother i want you to know nobody will ever compare to you,
you are truely amazing.
None of the holidays are the same and they never will be.
i love you and miss you more than anything big bro.

Don’t think I do not feel;
because you see no tears.
A river rages deep inside
of grief, and loss, and fears.
Just because I do not cry now,
don’t think my heart’s not broken.
I keep inside the misery
of words not to be spoken.
Sometimes I smile, or crack a joke,
so you won’t see the pain;
or notice how my hands will shake,
or how I’ve gone insane.
Each time I chance to think of Rick,
my heart is ripped asunder.
The loss I feel is mine alone.
you will not see my thunder.
Loving you always, Mom
January 17, 2009
I never feel the sun…
I never feel the rain…
All I feel is pain…
Since you’ve gone.
My son I miss you so…
I never thought you’d go…
Before me.
You are so loved…
You are so missed.
we miiss and love you forever elizabeth and keya

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

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.

Dearest Rick,
HAPPY NEW YEAR,
I cant seem to stop missing you more and more each day...

I thought it would be easier after the holidays but it seems much worse now then ever...
I hope you now how i love you so...
I was your mmother and now it is to late to have you here with me.
I pray that you will forgive me for letting you down.
I think of you each second of each day and cant wait to be with you again...

Ricki,
I missed you so much yesterday...
I kept seeing you watching Lizzy open her gifts,
and how much you loved Christmas with her...
I know this year you also got to see your son open gifts and how Happy that must have made you...
I wished that you were with us for Christmas,
but that will never be...
I cant seem to stop thinking it is so unreal that you have gone away,
and i just want you back so badly,
I cant overcome the loss i feel in my heart....
I love you and i hope you are happy and that you no longer feel the pain in your life that took you from us. Please be happy and meet you at the gates some day,
I will always talk to you until that day comes......

Sweet Ricki,
It is still so hard for me to not have you here. Thanksgiving was not the same, the empty seat meant for you made me sad.
I just wanted the day to be over.
How could I be thankful when I have lost you? As Christmas draws near I can't seem to care. I don't feel the spirit of Christmas this year. I remember how you helped me get my trees and you always put up my lights. They won't be hung this year cuz you are not here. I can't seem to do it. The tree will be decorated in blue only in remembrance of you. All I want for Christmas is you, Sweet Ricki.

December 5, 2008
Thanksgiving has many meanings for me
Family and friends all happy this day
The weather outside has no effect
Everything was ready the table was set
This year is different as a place is bare
Our Ricki is gone who once sat there
Our thoughts of celebration have turned to grief
Thanksgiving is different as we are in disbelief
We think of all the things to be thankful today
But thoughts of our Ricki who passed away
Comes into our minds like it was yesterday
The table once surrounded by happy faces
Now is filled with memories and Ricki's empty space
Still i bow my head and thank God above
For all things present and blessings of love
In ending my prayer i add one more line
Dear God I hope my Ricki is fine
I have not forgotten my Son on this day
Forever your Mom Crying for you
December 4, 2008
Oh Rick It was so very hard for me at thanksgiving...
I miss you so.
I had no one to make the pies like you always did and Joey cut the turkey.
We were all very sad you were so missed It will never be ok, I will always cry for you and i still want you back...
I Love you so and am so brokenhearted..
I cant seem to get in the Holiday Spirit..
Please know i love and Miss You

Dear God,
I miss my Daddy very much,
Even though the moments we shared were very few
I carry you inside of me as I am part of you
I pray you always remind me that he remains a part of me in everything I do and all that I will become
Please show me every day that my Daddy is still a part of me and nothing will ever change that because my Daddy lives inside of me.
My smile is my Daddy's smile
My tears are my Daddy's tears as I am a part of Him and He a part of me.
Lord, I ask you to keep the bonds between us strong in spirit as you know I will need Him as I grow to be a man, Remind me that I will be with my Dad someday in our mansion in the sky.
I Miss You, Rick..... LOVE, MOM

To know him is to love him
To know him is to care
To have loved and lost him
Even when he's not there
You wait each day for him to appear
Walking through your door so near
But in your mind you know it's true
He is gone and nothing you can do
Still you mind plays tricks again
Like a game that never ends
Emotions once silent now run deep
Proven by all the tears we weep
The tears of love that we cry
Filled with questions we don't know why
Now to know him is to love him
To know him is to care
I Love You, Rick... MoM
November 8, 2008
Rick,
I shed some tears only you can see
The tears of love and memories
A heart so strong now broken in two
Is but an empty shell since I lost you
Days have come and nights go by
Still those questions why why why
The pain subsides but the heart still breaks
Sometimes I may even begin to shake
My mind is numb and doesn't recognize
It still thinks that you are alive
I know deep in my heart that this isn't true
I will still shed all my silent tears
Sometime,will you come and give me a sign
Showing you love me and try to ease my mind
Only you can see all my silent tears
Love transcends through all eternity
So do my tears only you can see...
Michelle FULLER

Rick,I wouldn't know what to do
I wouldn't know what to say
If you came back from heaven and I could look upon your face,
Would I fumble for words or would I be a little shy?
Would I burst right out with laughter or would I break down and cry?
If you came back from Heaven would it be like it was then?
Could we pick up where we left off and try it all again?
Rick if you came back from Heaven it would freeze me in my tracks.
I hope God knows that if you came back from Heaven I would never send you back again.
Would you kisses feel the same?
Would you whisper love to all of us because we missed you so much?
Rick have you heard all our prayers?
Have your heard our tears as we hold our pillows tight?Do you see our tears when we lay down at night?
I wish you could come back because we all miss you so.. This way you would get to know Chaim and he'd get to know you.
Micah Fuller
November 6, 2008

Thinking Of You Always... Love forever, from Mom
November 4, 2008
It has been a few months since you have departed
You left me alone and I am broken hearted
I remember the day the last time we met
A day so tragic I can never forget
The pain and sorrow you left here with me
You could not help what it would do to me
Time goes on as I struggle with each passing day
I can not understand why you left that way
All I have left is you in my heart
Each day goes on and so must I
I just do not understand why
I think of things that we said
Are now memories in my head
One day will come when my life is through
Then we will be together me and you
Now I pray to God above
To bless you with his precious love
i love and miss you keya and elizabeth kutney
November 3, 2008

Missing you more today... All My Love, Mom
October 27, 2008
One day past your name was read
It was from the book of dead
It said your time on earth was through
You shall arise and start anew
You did the best on earth you could
Just as God knew you would
Your sins on earth have been forgiven
That is why Jesus has risen
He was crucified on the cross one day
So he could say Ricki come my way
You left behind your family and friends
But you knew we would meet again
I know You will feel no pain or shame
Because you have risen God called your Name
In your moment of grief and despair
God came to you with his love to share
God said to you come go with me
For now you are forever free
No more sorrow no more pain
Because each day will be the same
Come with me Now my Son
You and me are now as one
Memories are the things we cherish
Thats all we have of those that perish
A remembered smile a thoughtful phrase
Our minds still lost as if in a daze
Our hearts once full now torn apart
To lose someone that was a part
We travel back through all the years
With pictures we cherish and hold so dear
Its strange how life can change ones fate
When tragedy strikes on that dreadful date
Things we took for granted are now lost
We would trade places no matter the cost
It is not for us to choose
But our time has come to lose
For all I have are memories to hold near
They are gone and did disappear
They left this earth and are free of pain
I am left with grief and blame
One day when my life is through
Only then will I see you
Missing you so much... Mom
October 23, 2008
I stopped living the day my son died
The loss so tragic so many tears have I cried
We are not suppose to bury our children they say
I wish it was me instead of him that day
I would have gladly changed paces and given my life
Thinking to myself how that would end his strife
The guilt the blame still haunts me today
I can't understand why he had to go that way
I went into a shell and retreated from life
It feels like my heart was cut out with a knife
I don't sleep at night I walk around in a daze
I feel like my mind is lost in a maze
Nothing to live for nothing to do
That's how I feel since I lost you
Why dear lord did this happen to me
What did I do to offend thee
You took my child from me and I don't know why
Now all I want is to lay down and die
I know that this is not the way it should be
We are suppose to grow old with them and be so happy
Each day I awake and begin to cry
Please dear God I just want to die
Words don't help nothing seems real
Normal lives once happy and sound
Now is empty with few people around
Not only did grief come that day
Sorrow and emptiness are here to stay
It wasn't that long ago you were here with me
But little did I know my life would soon be empty
I never would have known what was due to unfold
Or how I would have found you so dead and yet so cold
Of all the things I have in life I just didn't understand
Why God had called you home to his promised land
It is not for me to question this is what I am told
His life was only temporary to have and to hold
They say there is a reason , a purpose and a plan
I just wish God would show me how to understand
I only know of what I heard about the other side
Only this broken heart know all the tears I have cried
I trust in God and have my faith this is what I must do
But no one can ever say how much I love and miss you
I feel so empty and thoughts of meeting you above
But doing so would destroy the ones I love
Yes the thought is there but only just a thought
All because I lost you and my life is so distraught
MISSING YOU SO BADLY TODAY... ALWAYS YOUR MOM
October 19, 2008
Emptiness is now what I feel
The words are cruel yet so real
No words or thoughts can make it go away
A life so full now empty and bare
It broke my heart and I really don't care
Is life so cruel to hand me this fate
If only it was a bad mistake
I awake each day with the pain in my heart
Wishing that somehow it would be a new start
I know deep down that this can never be
Now it's just my broken heart and me
When I dream of you I have cried
Nightmares haunt me of how you died
Peace of mind is no longer there
Unanswered questions are everywhere
A heart once proud and full of joy
Now feels like a broken toy
A mind once clear and always alert
Now is confused amidst the hurt
Your thoughts and actions once sure and firm
Now lead to confusion that makes you squirm
A body once full of life and love
Now resides with god above
For you your life is now complete
But I am left with scars so discreet
Only a few can understand my pain
Never again will I be the same
I say your name and talk to you everyday
Nobody can ever take that away
So when I dream and cry for you
It's my love for you that is always true
Marilyn Miller

Vicki my heart goes out to you. I will never know your pain but we are there and if you just need someone to listen call and I will call you back. It is hard to believe that he is gone. He had great eyes and a real nice smile. It is hard to believe that chaim will be 5 and Ricky was there from the beginning. July 4 they went to find out that Michelle was 8 weeks pregnate.

October 10, 2008
As I look back on my life
The ups and downs and all the strife
Of Joys and sorrows I have had
It makes you happy and even sad
Many things have come and went
Things I cherish and money spent
But of all the joys of days long past
Are forever in my heart where they will last
For this is what I must hold
To keep my heart from growing cold
A tragic event did come my way
I was not prepared for that tragic day
I did not conceive in my mind
What would happen and what I would find
Now it's happened and this is real
I must survive but I don't know what to feel
My heart is shattered my emotions are drained
Sometimes I feel like I am going insane
Questions without answers where do you start
How do you mend my broken heart
These are things I will never know
Just why he died and had to go
All I can ask is God above
To receive my Son with all his love
Now he is free and without any pain
I just wish I could feel the same

PRAYER OF REMEMBRANCE In the rising of the sun and in its going down; we remember you; In the gusting wind and in the chill of winter; In the opening of buds and in the rebirth of spring; in the blueness of the sky and in the warmth of summer; In the rustling of the leaves and the beauty of autumn; In the beginning of the year and when it ends; When we are weary and in the need of strength; When we are lost and sick at heart; When we have joys we yearn to share; we remember you; So long as we live, you too shall live, for you are now a part of us, as we remember you... My beloved brother and best friend. R.I.P. RICHARD JOSEPH KUTNEY

A Mothers Love for her son
Can never be changed or undone
She had her child one early morn
Her precious son had just been born
With Love and devotion she held him tight
All through the day and into the night
She raised her son with love from her heart
In hopes when he grew up he would be smart
The days and months slowly went by
Then the years passed in a blink of an eye
The love for her son she has shown
It is in his heart now that hes grown
A mother is proud and brags of her son
How he has shown just what hes become
Then one day the word that she hears
Makes her collapse and burst into tears
The call she gets will remain in her head
They found her son and he was dead
A mothers heart has just been broken
She struggles in vain to find just a token
Something of his to cherish and hold
Never to forget even as she gets old
The loss of her son and her disbelief
Shows in her pain but more in her grief
A Mothers Love so pure and so true
The day it started is when she had you
Now a mother has lost her love
As she looks to the heavens and God Above
Her heart and mind once strong now weak
With pain and sorrow she don't even speak
Now she must try to get through each day
In hopes that somehow she can find the way
A mothers love once proud once new
Has been shattered because she lost you
So Mothers out there I beg of you
Remember your son because he loved you
forever loving you. Mom
