Dearest Steve:

We were married for 23 years
and this is why I've shed some tears

Your life was short
But beautiful still
While all of us
Have days to fill

God decided
It was your day
To leave this life
And be on your way

You will be missed
By all who knew
The fun loving
Real you

Rest in peace
My dearest friend
Your memory lives on
And will never end.

Just like people who come to wave and say goodbye to a sailing ship leaving port, we come here today to say goodbye to our friend Steve departing our world.

As the ship sails to a far away enchanted land, so too our friend Steve is on his way to a place we can only imagine.

As the ship makes its journey and arrives safely in port, our friend Steve also makes his passage, to his eternal home. A home filled with rejoice, rest and reunion.

As the ship re-enters the harbor, it is greeted wth smiles from family and friends, soo too as Steve enters heaven to be greeted by his loved ones.

As we say Good-Bye Steve, we'll miss you, others are standing with open arms saying "Welcome Home Steve" we're glad to see you.

With Deepest Sympathy

We will always remember Steve as a big TEDDY BEAR...always willing to do anything for a friend....and we all know that he made friends everywhere he went. He will be missed greatly. We both feel that it has been and honor and a privledge to have known Steve Clarke, and for this we have been blessed.

Dear Tiggy, Barry and Lou Lou,

Words cannot express how I feel.
Please know that Steve loved you all very very much. It meant the world to him to have found his family, as growing up an only child he found the parts that were missing when he finally met you all.
Losing Mum, Dad and Steve in 7 weeks is devestating. You all need to remember the last things he said to you. He meant each and every word he said. I know this is hard on all of you, just remember, I am only a phone call away. I love you all very much...

Love Donna
