Marc, Today is 15 years since you've been gone, yet I think of you every day. I will hold you close in my heart forever with all the precious memories. I miss you so much. I miss the holidays when all of us were together. You've brought so much joy to all of us..Keep the dragonflies coming, the pennies, 333...all signs that I know you haven't left us at all..Until we are together once again....I love you, son. Happy heavenly Thanksgiving. I am thankful that God gave us 37 years together. Say hello to Noelle.

Marc, it's been 14 years since you've been gone. There is not a day that goes by when I don't think of you. You've taught me so much about life and how to be strong. Without love there is no grief. I've learned to accept the grief because of love. Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. I often wonder how life would be if you were still here....To My Son, I love you, thank you for being you, for the wonderful memories, the laughter, I miss you and your smile...Until we meet again....Happy Thanksgiving in heaven.

Hello Marc, remembering our last Thanksgiving together. It was the best ever and so much fun and laughter. I miss you so very much - we all do. Sometimes we take life for granted and then fully realize the pain and sadness that comes along with losing a loved one. I just hope you know how much I love you, miss you and so grateful for bringing joy to me. Uncle Jim passed today. He was a great part of our family and now he's with you and Aunt Virg. We share special memories and I am thankful for that on this Thanksgiving Day. Love you, Marc.

Marc, so hard to believe that 12 years have passed. I try to envision how life would be if you were here. We all miss you so much and life is not the same without you. You are always in my heart. Your nieces and nephews miss you - even ones like Sophia and Lexy who never met you. I was touched today when Lexy said she wished you could play soccer, baseball, football with her. We keep your memory alive and even young children can feel your gentle and kind spirit. I wish we all had more time with you. You left us with memories that fill our hearts with joy and make us smile but also sad because we want more. I Love you, Marc. Dad says he loves and misses you.

Marc, it's been 10 years since you left and I think of you each and every day. I wish I had that one more day to tell you all that's in my heart. Too often we take for granted that our loved ones will be around forever. I miss you so much. Our last Thanksgiving dinner with you, Shane and the family was filled with so much love and laughter. These memories I cherish until one day, I will see you again. I love you, Marc.

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and wish you were here! I often wonder what life would be like. I miss everything about you!!! Our baby boy is graduating from high school this year... I can't believe it. I know you are just as proud as I am. What I wouldn't give to see that smile of yours in front of me. When you left you took a part of me that I will never get back. I've tried so hard Marc!! Really I have... I just don't know if I will ever be able to move on. My love forever,

Marc,
Today is 9 years since you've been gone. I lost so much that day and living is not the same without you. I love all my 3 sons the same, but sadly, you are our missing link. I think of you each and every day and the heartache of missing you doesn't go away. Today, I should be doing the fixins for our Thanksgiving dinner where we all gathered together and that joy was felt in my heart and soul. Sadly, I cannot and will never feel that joy again - the inner joy that goes deep in the heart. Yes, I have happy and joyful moments, but only a Mom who lost can understand this emptiness. During the early morning hours, I struggled on what to say to you. Honestly, there are no words to express how I feel. Put it simply, I do miss and love you so very much. I miss Rocky and I'm sure you're having a wonderful time with him. I want to hug him so give him a great big hug. He left his paw prints on my heart. After Jasmine, I never thought I could love another dog, but when Rocky came into my life, it was magical and he brought so much happiness. Life is not the same without you and Rocky, but whenever I feel sad, my mind reminds me "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all." Life on earth is only temporary and one day, we'll all be together again. I'll make the best turkey and stuffing - it will be heavenly. And oh, by the way, Jerry's holding on to the leaves. I'm sure you remember them lol. Thanks for the love, for all you've been and it certainly is a blessing and honor to call you "my heavenly son." Always know, you have a special place in my heart. Enjoy your turkey dinner tomorrow with loved ones and furry friends. Until we meet again.
Love till eternity,
Mom

Not a day goes by that I don't miss you! Sometimes I feel so lost and confused about everything. Even though time goes by it still feels like yesterday. Your sons remind me so much of you and at times I hear you in them and it brings a smile to my face. I don't want to be without you!!! but know that I must. Every now and then I can sense you are here and I know that I'm not alone. I still cry myself to sleep knowing that you are so far away from us. I haven't been able to celebrate the holidays the same since. I love you so much Marc and I hope you are proud of your boys. As always I send a million kisses...
Love, Linda

Another day of missing you... I don't think there will ever be a day that I don't! Sometimes the pain is so unbearable and the tears flow uncontrollably. I'm trying my best to be strong but it gets so hard.... why I ask myself constantly... "why did you leave!?" ...

It still doesn't seem real that you are gone. I miss you so much! I would give anything to be able to see your smiling face and talk about life with you. Our boys are growing up so fast and although I know you watch over them not a moment goes by that you are not thought about. I cry for you often and feel your presence all the time. When I feel you near it makes me smile but I still have a part of me that left with you. Forever loved!!!!

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I watch the boys grow and see things in them that remind me so much of you and I can't help but smile because I know that you are too. Sometimes it's just a certain face they give or a silly act. I talk to you all the time and even though I know you are here in spirit I would give anything to be able to talk like we used to.

Marc was a sweet guy he was a member of my church ,and always running around , doing all his jobs he had. You never saw him without a smile on his face and always said hello to everyone he came in contact with . This past week took my son to Sunday school and it was the 1st time in a long long time the bell didnt ring, made me cry because that was Marc's job. Marc was a awesome person and loved his family and will be greatly missed . God Bless the families that Marc was related to and friends . RIP Marc you will be greatly missed .

Marc,
I'm going to miss your smiling face every Sunday morning in church quite a lot. You were one of the greatest men I have ever met. Thank you for always cheering me up and greeting me with open arms. Your mother said you looked for me each Sunday and guess what? I was always looking for you. It was a pleasure to be able to collect attendance at Sunday school with you. I'm glad you taught me the procedure. Thanks to you, I'm a pro. I'll carry out this task with honor. I love you and miss you greatly. I cannot wait until the day I see your smiling face again.
