Hannah Congdon Obituary
Fairport: Tuesday, June 26, 2007, at the age of 18, passed into peace with best friends Meredith, Bailey, Katie, and Sara.
Born on September 13, 1988 in Rochester. Hannah is survived by her loving parents, Marilyn and Terry, and beloved sister Elizabeth, grandparents Carolyn Congdon and Elwin Marshall, aunts DiDi, Nancy, Janet, Margie, Barb, Linda, Peggy and Cindy, uncles Rich, Thorn, Te, Sid, Don, and Jerry, all whom she loved dearly. She is also survived by cousins Katie, Sarah, David, Alyson, Alexis, Nicky, Marky, Whitney, Mark, Eddie, Bobbi Jo, Melanie, Angie, Donnie, Ashley, and Heather, sharing a special bond with Emma and Mac. Hannah was predeceased by her grandmother Betty Marshall, grandfather Charles Congdon and cousins Chuckie and Lonnie. Hannah is also survived by best friends Sara, and Keisha, the "Hood Girls", FVC Angels, and her countless friends whom she loved dearly. Hannah's love for Fairport is reflected in her many activities including Cheerleading, Leadership Asset Training Program, Pop Warner Cheerleading Coach, Lacrosse, and any sporting event where she could cheer on her boys! She was especially proud of the trip she made to India in 2006 and cherished the friendships that developed! Hannah was best known for her smile and her kindness to everyone she met. She was planning to attend SUNY Cortland to study Elementary Education. She hoped to join the Peace Corps and work in a third world country before she married and had several children!
Calling hours will be held on Sunday from noon to 6 P.M. at Fairport High School. A Funeral Mass will be held at 9 A.M. Monday at Church of the Assumption, 20 East Ave. in Fairport.

To the Congdon Family:
Your daughter's birth date has special meaning for me. How fast life can happen and how quickly it can change in the blink of an eye. I know your hearts are shattered and that you are struggling to get from minute to minute each day. Talk of Hannah often to whomever you can. Speaking of her will help you through your grief. Do whatever you have to to cope. You will be cared for here on earth while the angels in heaven cradle Hannah in their arms for eternity.
Rest assured that your family, your friends, and your faith will help you get to the other side of the pain.

Word's can't describe the way America feels as we read of your tragedy. As a mom of a daughter who just graduated, I can't even begin to imagine your pain.
Lean on your friends and family to bring you through this. You will find comfort reading Chapter 4 of The Purpose Driven Life, by Rick Warren. It puts our life in perspective. I know that isn't comforting at this time, but it will be in the days to follow. Please know your and the rest of the girl's families are in my daily prayers.
May God Bless you and comfort you in your time of sorrow.

Meredith, Hannah, Katie, Bailey and Sara...5 beautiful young women, who's names we all know now and will forever remember. 5 beautiful Angels watching over all of their families and friends, until we are all together at last. Please draw comfort from knowing that they are all together with Him and feel no pain, only love and peace. These 5 young women, have touched more lives then hundred's of people could ever imagine. We may not understand why, but this is when we have to trust that God has His own plan, and that we are not to question, but accept, even though the pain is almost unbearable at times. May the love and support of all of us~ friends, family and strangers, be felt and may you find some comfort in that. God Bless all of the families of God's 5 newest Angels~ The Tuttle Family of Penfield.

Fill not your hearts with pain & sorrow,
but remember me in every tomorrow.
Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles, I've only gone to rest a little while.
So dry your eyes & remember me, not as I am now, but as I used to be.
Because I will remember you all & look on with a smile.
Understand, in your hearts, I've only gone to rest a little while.
As long as I have the love of each of you, I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.
Your beautiful Angel will always be watching over you.
God Bless you all at this very sad time.

As a former retired teacher of the Fairport Central School Distirct, There are absolutely no words to express to you my sadness and prayers. My tears, althought I did not know any of the girls, just don't seem to stop. I just wonder if I had any of the 'angels' parents in school. So, once again, there are certainly no words but there is love and prayers. If I could have given my life so that they would have been spared I wold have done that. God bless,

He then looked down upon this earth and saw Hannah's loving face.
He put his arms around her and lifted her to rest.

My granddaughter was immediately taken with both. Your family should be very proud of Hannah; she was a beautiful person inside and out. God keeps her close and we will keep her and you in our hearts and prayers.

I found a penny today
laying on the ground,
but it is not just a penny
this little coin I have found.
Found pennies come from Heaven.
That's what my Grandpa, told me.
He said, Angels toss them down.
Oh, how I love that story.
He said when an Angel misses you
they toss a penny down, sometimes
just to cheer you up, to make a smile
from your frown.
So don't pass by that penny
when you are feeling blue,
it may be a Penny from Heaven
that an Angel tossed to you.

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.
