FLY FREE MY PRECIOUS BUTTERFLY!




There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of
weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than
ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming
grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.
Washinghton Irving


REST IN PEACE MY BEAUTIFUL ANGEL!
When I am dead, come to me at my grave,
And the more often the better...
As you spoke to me when I was alive,
Do so now, for I am living, and I shall be FOREVER.
ST.Serafin Of sarov


HAVE A GLORIOUS JOURNEY MY PRECIOUS SON!
When I pass, speak freely of my
shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them,
for I'll have no ego to injure.
Aaron McGruder


I AM FEELING YOUR PAIN

And sorrow, like a sharp sword will

A SEARCH OF HOPE PATRICK LIVES ON!

YOUR MEMORIES ARE TREASURED
"It has been said time heals all wounds." I do not agree.
The wounds remain. In time, the mind protecting its
sanity, covers them with scars tissue and the pain
lessens. But is never gone.
Rose Kennedy
I am going to concentrate on what's important in life.
I am going to trive every day to be a kind and generous
and loving person. I am going to keep death right here,
so that any time I even think about getting angry at you
or anybody else, I will see death and I will remember.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
Fear not death, for the sooner we
die the longer we shall be immortal.
Benjamin Franklin
The love that is in a parent's heart
stays deep, strong and true. No matter where
you go, that love is there with you.
Edgar Cayce
Before I formed you in the wounds
I knew you.
Jeremiah 1:5
Life is continous and is infinite.
Death is only passing through
God's other door.
Edgar Cayce
Every man dies. Not every man
really dies.

MAY THE HOLY SPIRIT PROTECT YOU

LOVING YOU AND MISSING YOU
When we have done all the work we were sent to Earth to do,
we are allowed to shed our body, which imprisons our soul
like a cocoon encloses the future butterfly.
And when the time is right, we can let go of it and we will
be free of pain, free of fears and worries... free as a very
beautiful butterfly, returning home to God...
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross: From a letter to a child
with cancer, The Wheel of light
I hold that when a person dies his soul returns again
to earth arrayed in some new flesh disguise. Another
mother gives him birth with sturdier limbs and brighter
brain. The old soul takes the roads again.
John Maxfields
No eye has seen, no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived what God has
prepared for those who love him.
1 Corintian 2:9
Death is more universal than life,
everyone dies but not everone lives.
A. Sachs
Be open to your dreams, people. Embrace
that distant shore, because our mortal
journey is over all too soon.
David Assael
The dead cannot cry out for justice.
It is a duty of the living to do so for them.

PATRICK YOU ARE FOREVER IN MY LIFE

FOREVER IN MY HEART, ON MY MIND SON!
Death is but a transition from this life to another
existence where there is no more pain and anguish.
All the bitterness and disagreements will vanish, and
the only thing that lives forever is love.
Elizabeth kubler-Ross, M.D
When the earth shall claim your limbs,
then shall you truly dance.
Kahlil Gibran
Those of us who have worked through our grief...
and found there is a future... are the ones who must
meet others in the valley of darkness and bring them
to the light.
Rev. simon E. Stephens
Founder of The Compassionate Friends
The gull sees farthest who flies highest.
Richard Bach
Death is not the end, it is simply walking out
of the physical form and into the spirit realm.
which is our true home. It's going back home.

JESUS I TRUST IN YOU... PATRICK IS SAFE!

Blessed are they that mourn:
for they shall be comforted.
Jesus of Nazareth
I think death is a tremendous adventure...
a gateway into a new life, in which you have
further powers, deeper joys, and wonderful horizons.
Dr. Leslie D. Weatherhead
Death is a transition... Joni Eareckson Tada will walk
and run again. Helen Keller will see and hear. The child
who died of cancer will have rosy cheeks and a strong body.
The man crippled with arthritis will stand upright. The
woman who was disfigured in a fiery car crash will have a
face without blemish.
Dr. Billy Graham
I believe that Spirit lives on, that is immortal, and
that we must look to our ancestral spirits to guide us.
Susan L. Taylor
The body is only a garment. How many times you
have changed your clothing in this life, yet because of
this you would not say that you have changed. Similarly,
when you give up this bodily dress at death you do not
change. You are just the same, an immortal soul, a child
of God.

SON YOU ARE FOREVER ALIVE IN MY HEART

I MISS YOU SON SO MUCH
Six weeks after his death my father appeared to me
in a dream... It was an unforgettable experience,
and it forced me for the first time to think about
life after death.
Carl G. Jung
I experienced the reality of the spiritual body and
learned that it has every faculty of the phisical body,
though with greater sensitivity and some dimensions
added... There will be nothing shocking in the transition,
only a continuation of who I am now.
Catherine Marshall
You live on earth only for a few short years which you
call an incarnation, and then you leave your body as an
outworn dress and go for refreshment to your true home
in the spirit.
White Eagle
Ask, and it shall be given you;
seek, and ye shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
Jesus of Nazareth
There are many rooms in the Father's House just
as there are many grades in school. The period of
time we spend on earth is but one grade of life. It is
but a beginning.
Robert A. Russell
Life is eternal... Death is an inevitable transition
that each soul makes when it leaves the physical
body. It is a freer state which does not limit the soul
to time and place.
Betty Bethards
We do not need a special day to bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake we know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache as we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you no one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly in death we love you still.

" How does one become a butterfly?" she asked pensively.
"you must want to fly so much that you are willing to
give up being a caterpillar."
Trina Paulus
Death is simply a shedding of the physical body
like the butterfly shedding its cocoon. It is a
transition to a higher state of consciouness
where you continue to perceive, to understand,
to laugh, and to be able to grow.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, M.D
There should be no fear of death, for the death of
the body is but a gentle passing to a much freer life.
Helen Greaves
Death is just a change in lifestyles.
Steph Levine
A rose will still be a rose in Heaven,
but it'll smell ten times sweeter.
Meg woodson
I am quite confident that the most important
part of a human being is not his physical body
but his nonphysical essence, which some people
calll soul and others, personality... the nonphysical
part cannot die and cannot decay. because it's
not physical.
Rabbi Harold Kushner
Death... is no more than passing from one room
into another. But there's a difference for me, you
know because in that other room I shall be able
to see you.
Helen Keller
Just as a little bird cracks open the shell and
flies out, we fly out of this shell, the shell of
the body. We call that death, but strictly
speaking, death is nothing but a change of
form.

JESUS I TRUST IN YOU
Bereavement is the deepest initiation into the mystery
of human life... Bereavement is the sharpest challenge
to our trust in God. If faith can overcome this, there is
no mountain which it cannot remove.
W.R Inge, survival and immortality 1919
No longer will the sun be your light by day or the
moon be your light by night. I, the Lord, will be your
eternal light; the light of my glory will shine on you.
Your days of grief will come to an enf. Amen.
Isaiah 60:19-20
I believe that when you die you will enter immediately
into another life. They who have gone before us are
alive in one form and we in another.

MAY YOUR BEAUTIFUL SOUL FLY FREE SON
JESUS I TRUST IN YOU
We must believe that the Lord loves us, embraces us,
never abandon us (especially in our most difficult moments).
This is what give us hope in the middle of life's sufferings and
chaos.
Joseph Cardinal Bernadin
He heals the broken-hearted and bandages their wounds.
He has decided the number of the stars and calls each one
by name.
Psalm 147: 3-4
I know that the Highest of high has a plan.
I know that he has a time for me that will be right
for me to leave my body the way a butterfly leaves its
cocoon. Our only purpose in life is growth. There are
no accidents.
Elizabeth Kubbler Ross
Physical life always has a purpose and meaning. It is
intended to be a spiritual learning experience, an
opportunity for change, personal growth, and
transformation for each of us... Death is merely the
final stage of physical life when we have completed our
earthly school, cast off our body, and graduated. The
assurance of an afterlife... can inspire us to overcome
our fear of death so that we may be free to embrace
life spontaneously and joyfully.

HAVE A BLESSED, HEAVENLY JOURNEY SON!

JESUS I TRUST IN YOU
The day of death is when two worlds meet with a kiss:
This world going out, the future world coming in.
Jose B. Abin, Talmid of: Yebamet, C.400
The doctrine of the Kingdom of Heaven, which was
the main teaching of Jesu, is certainly one of the most
revolutionary doctrine that ever skined and changed
human thought.
H.G. Wells
The body of a man is not a home, but an inn...
and that only briefly.
Seneca, Epistulae Morales AD Lucillium
C.63A.D.
I am aware that people I have loved and have died
are in the spirit world looking after me.
Diana, Princess of Wales
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not
rely on your own right.
Proverb 3:5 (NRSV)
[Those who have lost children.] know for a fact that
our children often return to us in dreams. This is not
goodby, wild-eyed, wishful thinking... It's fact. Sometimes
I think they come to check in on us, to see how we are doing.
More often they come to let us know how they are doing.
Elizabeth Mehaen
God continues to love us, even when we are
angry at Him.
James Dobson
God gathers our pain and struggle and holds it
compassionately. It is good to being God our tears.
God can catch them and hold them compassionately
until we find our inner peace again.

IN THE ARMS OF THE ANGELS YOU ARE SAFE

MAY THE ANGELS PROTECT YOU
We want you to know the truth about those who have died,
so that you will not be sad, as those who have no hope.
We believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe
that God will take back with Jesus those who have died
believing in Him.
Thessalonians 4:13-14
In Heaven, we do not lose, for " to die is to gain."
We aren't less, we are more. When we die, we are not
in some soul-sleep of a stupor, not purgatory, and we
are certainly not unconscious. We are at home with
the Lord. Home!
Joni Eareckson Tada
If we've learned anything from the prophet Ezekiel
and the apostle John, it's that Heaven is real. It's
not a state or condition, but a place. A place with streets,
gates, walls and rivers. We are wrong in thinking that
Heaven is wispy, thin, and vaporous. It is earth that is
like withering grass, not Heaven.
Joni Eareckson Tada
There are two worlds, " the visible and the invisible"
as the Creed speaks... the world we see and the world
we do not see. And the world which we do not see as
really exists as the world we do see.
John Henry Newman
