Very emotional day yesterday.
It was more of a celebration of David's life. Old friends and family. We laughed, we cried we ate alot. Just ask Festina we were comparing our bellies from all the food we ate.
Emotional to see the sadness in my boys eyes.
The cemetery was emotional but wonderful with alot of us reading and sharing good memories. Some made us cry and some made us laugh.
Oh!! and My Mia and My Jonathan going up the hill in greenwood and letting the balloons go to heaven. You know I took pictures even at the cemegery. lol

WE COULD HAVE HAD OUR OWN LITTLE GROUP. JOE PINTO ON DRUMS, AL ON GUITAR AND ME AND U ON VIOLIN LOL

TERRY -
thank you for the beautiful email about the ceremony.
I am happy that the readings were meaninful to the
ceremony.
Since I could not be there, I feel like I made a little
contribution from my heart, in that small way.
I am sure that the ceremony was beautiful; I still recall
David's send off to heaven, with the balloons and music.
And I thought of you yesterday, especially around noon.
Duh, At that time, I looked out the window and said,
"Good, the sun is shining for the ceremony!" LOL
Your picture with the long hair, gave me, as we say -
the heebie geebies. What a great memory, and a great
time in place.
I also think that picture of me with Jamsie and David, was
at my Mom and Dad's 25th Anniversary Dinner. What do
you think?

Judy.......is mom any better??
Patsy.....I didn't forget you.....John had to go to florida because his dad was sick as soon as he gets back he'll call you about the bed. -
Rest in Peace Dear David, I Miss You - and Thank You for putting
up with our craziness, all those years ago.. Especially on Saturday
mornings when we rushed into Lady Fair looking for something to
wear to the Gridiron. And thank you for the nights you made sure
we got home safely.
And guess what? "Still Crazy After All These Years"
Love,
Franny

A Message from David - to his Sons Michael & Jonathan:
"Boy o' mine, boy o' mine, this is my prayer for you,
This is my dream and my thought and my care for you:
Strong be the spirit which dwells in the breast of you,
Never may folly or shame get the best of you;
You shall be tempted in fancied security,
But make no choice that is stained with impurity.
Boy o' mine, boy o' mine, time shall command of you
Thought from the brain of you, work from the hand of you;
Voices of pleasure shall whisper and call to you;
Luring you far from the hard tasks that fall to you;
Then as you're meeting life's bitterest test of men,
God grant you strength to be true as the best of men.
Boy o' mine, boy o' mine, singing your way along,
Cling to your laughter and cheerfully play along;
Kind to your neighbor be, offer your hand to him,
You shall grow great as your heart shall expand to him;
But when for victory sweet you are fighting there,
Know that your record of life you are writing there.
Boy o' mine, boy o' mine, this is my prayer for you;
Never may shame pen one line of despair for you;
Never may conquest or glory mean all to you;
Cling to your honor whatever shall fall to you;
Rather than victory, rather than fame to you,
Choose to be true and let nothing bring shame to you."
From Collected Verse of Edgar Guest
NY:Buccaneer Books, 1976, pg. 356
