We thought of you with love today,
But this is nothing new,
We thought of you yesterday and days before that too. We think of you in silence and often speak you name.
All we have now are our memories, and your picture in a frame.
It broke our hearts to lose you, But
you didn't go alone,
A part of us went with you, The day God took you home.

With all our Love Dad.

Shirley,
Though it has been many years since I had seen you and Mario, I still remember you fondly. I remember your generosity at your boutique in Leominster - always allowing me to pick an outfit when I'd visit with my parents. My dad had many good memories of golfing with Mario through the years and we spoke of him this morning after reading the paper. You are in their thoughts and prayers as well as mine.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Mario will be missed here at the club. He was always so sweet, gentle, and humble when he came in for his workout--he was a pleasure to serve and work with! God Bless you Shirley and the rest of your family.
