Just whisper my name in your heart
I will be there....."

                                                             She welcomed all to our house &  made our house a home
                                                                 She would laugh even though she could never understand the joke
                                                                        While at home...you never felt afraid, you never felt all alone
                                                                              And her toes wiggled and wiggled whenever she spoke

           I remember Dad  ~

                                                             He was the most interesting man to meet...full of clever sayings & very witty
                                                                  He knew endless jokes & card tricks a plenty.....his talents were endless
                                                                        Did travelled the world , did great things and sang many an Irish ditty
                                                                                Know as a true" Gentle Man",  and  was never friendless

           I remember Tom  ~

                                                            An all Canadian boy ....full of beans,  full of fun....a loving Brother & Son
                                                                 He stood tall and handsome, eyes of blue made many a girl swoon
                                                                      Strong, firm and stubborn...he craved & achieved to be number one
                                                                           A prince & scholar......he always excelled & reached for the moon

           I remember Them All  ~

                                                                Their humor, their wit, their presence enriched the air that I breathe
                                                                      Joy was having them around ,the fun, laughs,  the taking & giving
                                                                           When they died....my heart was enraged "How dare they  leave"
                                                                                   In my mind, my soul and in my heart they always be living

           I remember Seeing ~

                                                                 My Mom's beauty in my sister Carol's face, Dad's pixie like smile
                                                                      Mom's smile dancing in my brother Bill's eye's, Dad's clever wit
                                                                            My Dad's impishness and thirst for knowledge, embedded
                                                                                  in my sister Terry's very being,  Mom's crafty talents
                                                                                     My brother Tom's blue eyes and smile on his children's
                                                                                           faces...his clever  wit , keen eye and playful sighs
 
 

                                                                 My mirror cannot tell a lie.... when I look at myself... I see them all
                                                                     I love to learn, do crafty things, have a hearty laugh & am a "dreamer"
                                                                        They are all a part of me...and I remember the love and the caring
                                                                        When we laugh...they laugh too... and when we cry...they cry
                                                                            Each beat of our hearts.... is theirs .... as they live within
 

                        We remember forever and a day that they will always

                                                                        Fly onward
