SAFELY HOME



He is home in Heaven

So happy and so bright!

There is perfect joy and beauty

In that everlasting light.



All the pain and grief is over,

Every restless tossing passed;

He is now at peace forever,

Safely home in Heaven at last.

Never Forgotten, Den



What is precious, is never to forget

The essential delight of the blood drawn from ageless springs,

Breaking through rocks in worlds before our Earth.

Never to deny it's pleasure in the morning simple light

Nor it's grave evening demand for love.

Never to allow gradually the traffic to smother with noise and fog,

The flowering of the Spirit.



Near the snow, near the sun, in the highest fields,

See how these names are feted by the waving grass

And by the streamers of white cloud

And whispers of wind in the listening sky.

The names of those who in their lives fought for life,

Who wore at their hearts the fire's centre.

Born of the Sun, they traveled a short while toward the Sun

And left the vivid air signed with their honour.



Your masses begin in July - never forgotten.

Peace,

Sis

IN OUR HEARTS

We thought of you with love today,

But that is nothing new.

We thought about you yesterday

And days before that too.

We think of you in silence,

We often speak your name.

Now all we have are memories

And your picture in a frame.

Your memory is our keepsake

With which we'll never part.

God has you in his keeping -

We have you in our hearts.

Love,

Mom

EASTER REMEMBERANCE

We little knew that morning

that God was going to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly,

in death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you,

you did not go alone,

for part of us went with you

the day God called you home.

You left us laughing, silly memories,

your love is still our guide, and

though we cannot see you,

you are always by our side.

Our family chain is broken

and nothing seems the same,

but as God calls us one by one,

the chain will link again.

Forever in our Hearts,

Your loving Family.

Peace, Brother.

Thinking and praying for Dennis each day and remembering in the Irish way:

The Stolen Child

Where the wandering water gushes

From the hills above Glen-Car,

In pools among the rushes

That scarce could bathe a star,

We seek for slumbering trout

And whispering in their ears

Give them unquiet dreams;

Leaning softly out

From ferns that drop their tears

Over the young streams.

"Come away, O human child!

To the waters and the wild

With a faery, hand in hand,

For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.



Yeats

Den,

Your legacy of achievement through hard work, perserverance and good humor was ever present during your God Son's College graduation on December 10th. I know he will be as generous of spirit and kind as you were - you were an inspiration.

Dennis was a great person. I knew Dennis from work at American Express in 1998 to 2000. My step-daughter Linda Greenslade and I sat right down the hall from Dennis. Linda really got him going with her antics. Dennis enjoyed it all and was also good at great comebacks. He made coming to work much more fun. I really enjoyed knowing him and he will be missed.

He came upon a Child of God,

He was walking along the road,

when he asked him, "Where are you going?",

This he told him.

"I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm,

Gonna join a Rock and Roll Band -

I'm going to camp out on the land

and try and get my soul free.



HE WAS STARDUST, HE WAS GOLDEN AND NOW HE'S GONE BACK TO THE GARDEN.



WHO CAN FORGET YOU AND YOUR WOODSTOCK ADVENTURE. YOU WERE MY PROTECTOR, MY FRIEND, MY ADVISOR. I'LL MISS YOU FOREVER AND A DAY.



MAY YOU FIND PEACE IN THE GARDEN, BROTHER.



LOVE,

SIS

I worked with Dennis at American Express during Y2K. I remember how fondley he talked about his mother. He had a great sense of humor and made my experience at Amex a memorable one. My thoughts and sympathy go out to his family.
