We have only your memory, dear boy
To remember our whole life through,
But the sweetness will linger forever,
As we treasure the image of you.

I cannot believe 10 years have passed sweet Luca..never forgotten.

They say memories are Golden
Well maybe it's true
I never wanted memories
I only wanted you
A million times I needed you
A million times I cried
If Love alone could of saved you
You never would of died
In Life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place
No one could ever fill

Missing your cheers at Kareena's soccer games, your laughter as you run around with Steven and the other kids on the field at practices, and your teasing and joking ways every time we met. Your spirit shall forever live on... You are always in my heart.

Guess what Mommy, Daddy, Steven and Karina,

Heaven is great just like you said.

A guardian angel had come to me that February night,I told him I wanted to go, but was not sure if the time was right.

My angel took good care of me and put his hand in mine,I was no longer scared or sick, I felt so happy I was fine.

When the Doctor's came to see you,I saw you crying from above.
I saw how sad you were and knew that I was loved.

I heard you plead and pray....I knew you didn't want God to take me away.

I seen you holding me very tight so
I kissed you good-bye and tried to tell you I was alright.

I am watching you daddy, you still have my favorite toy,
Mommy, Steven and Karina you have brought me so much joy

Yes my time was brief, but there were other plans for me.
Please keep all the wonderful memories as a comfort for your grief.

I am now your guardian angel!!
I LOVE YOU!!

We miss you Luca and think of you always!!
XOXOXO

Dear Carmen, Dominic, Steven, and Kareena
My memory of Luca comes from when he was just a little baby. Carmen would come to our house to cut my Mom's hair, and of course baby Luca would come too, all cozy in his baby carrier. We had a dog who was very curious about this little thing that moved and made sounds, so we would put Luca out up on our kitchen table out of harms way. The dog was perturbed, the adults would ooh and aah over cute baby Luca, and Luca?-he would blissfully sleep through it all.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love Wendy

Dear Carmen, Steven, Kareena and Dominic,

Many fond memories run through our minds;
At your house one evening he kept insiting on climbing on the counter, nothing would stop him, whatever he could, he would try. He had a strong determination and it was hilarious to watch him go at it. At the restaurant, Buffet Fullam, how much he enjoy the fruit, he kept eating and eating fruits like there was no tomorrow with a bottomless stomach, it was so adorable. And our last encounter at the Mall after having his last picture done with Santa, he was running all over the Mall and Tristan was following him. Tristan just loved him so much and I believe it was vice-versa.
Carmen, Dominic, Steven and Karina, we will forever cherish does moments shared in your company.
We miss you all,God Bless,
Richard, Tristan and Anne Olenik

Carmen and Domenic - It must be a very sad day for you both today and my heart goes out to you both. Your son is such a special Adorbale little boy who is an ANGEL in heaven but he will always be in all our hearts forever. I will never forget Zarina's 50th party where he was so energetic and so very cute and I wanted a picture with him but he just kept running around and then finally I bribed him with the BACK-U-GONE toy - Finally on his own he came and sat on my lap for a picture and I treausure that precious beautiful picture with him. I dont know why but I just insited to take a picture with him not knowing he would be taken away from us. May God keep him in his care untill we all meet with him again. I still have the toy I promised him but will keep it in my memory box forever. Love you little Luca. Hugs to you Carmen. Hang in there.-------Lovie and Alain Tanya and Shannon--Montreal.

My meories of Luka are when visiting Carmen. He would always greet you with a dazzling smile. I remember him playing with his action figures totally absorbed and once in a while he would come in the room saying something so wise and smart out of the blue, way beyound his age. He was a special little boy and will never be forgotten.

Well, I have many memories of Luca. He was a frequent visitor of ours and of my mom's. He was such a character in that he was passionate and energetic about everything. He emulated my son Chris as he and Chris would play soccer as their sisters played on the field. He was a mini soccer player, often running onto the field as the girls were playing. He also rough housed with both my kids as they were tossing him on the couch. There was never enough excitement. He was also a frequeny visitor of my mom's, Vera, as Carmen did my mom's hair on a weekly basis. She always gave him candy and he entertained himself by finding all of the lighters my mom had scattered through the house (as she is a smoker). He was a great kid and his passing still always brings tears to my eyes. My feeling is that he is still here, participaing in the activities that made him happy.

Dear family of beautiful Luca,

I learned of Luca's sudden, premature death at mass last week, at Mary Queen of Peace parish. I can tell you that Fr. Francis has the whole church praying and rooting for you through this most difficult and trying time.

Sometimes, things happen that make no sense to us on Earth, but God has a plan. Luca is now an angel in heaven, and watching over your entire family!

The loss of a child is the worst thing in the world that can happen to parents. After all, it goes against the total nature of things: children are to outlive the parents, not the other way around! It seems to us that life is so unfair. Why this grief to your family?

Spiderman Luca, as evidenced from the innumerable guestbook entries, touched the lives of many, even though he left us too soon.

I really empathize with you, because I almost lost my third son, also named Lukas, at birth in 2007...he spent 5 weeks in NICU and another 3 months in the hospital. Every day, we prayed round the clock that he would survive, every day until his discharge, I was on edge, waiting for the worst possible news.
Miraculously, he made it. But those feelings of despair that I had then, I cannot forget, and probably never will fully get over it. So I can only imagine the tragedy your family must be enduring right now. Why is it that some are spared, adn others not?

I will continue to pray for you to be strong, and especially, for you precious parents, whom I have never met, that you be STRONG in this most difficult time of your lives. Try to love and support each other as much as possible. When you need help, do not be afraid to even pray to your little angel Luca in Heaven: he will help you!

Remember that God calls those whom HE needs most first. God must really have needed Luca very much to have taken him to Heaven now.

March 7, 2009

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.

Why God Takes Children
Author Unknown

When God calls little children
To dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question
The wisdom of His love.
For no heartache compares with,
The death of one small child,
Who does so much to make our world,
Seem so wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling
The aged to His fold,
So He picks a rosebud
Before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them,
And so He takes but few,
To make the land of heaven
More beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult
Still somehow we must try,
The saddest word mankind
knows will always be Good-by.
So when a little child departs,
We who are left behind
Must realize God loves children,
Angels are hard to find.

It is so devestating and hard to understand WHY God takes our children away from us too soon.

Dear Carmie, Dominic, Kareena and Steven,

Words seem inadequate to express the sadness we feel.

When we lose someone we love, it seems that time stands still. Luca was such a feisty little boy full of life and laughter. He was the 'little entertainer." We are all so fortunate to have had him in our lives.

Although no words can really help to ease the loss you are feeling, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.

May you take comfort in knowing a powerful little angel is watching over you and the family.

Love always,
Francesca and Roberto
