Always in our Hearts

I awoke this morning, and as always, Cailean was the first thought of my day. Realizing that it was Valentine’s Day, I thought it would be a fitting time to honor Cailean’s memory by sharing some of the sentiments friends have written about our son/brother. Here are some more kind and comforting words we have received:
– so many people here so earth loved him so much
– grateful for all the laughs and for him being such a sweet and talented person
– brightened so many peoples’ days
– such a wonderful person who always made people smile
– kept smiles on so many peoples’ faces
– Cailean’s memory will live on in everyone whose life he had touched
– will always have a special place in our hearts and will always remember how his earlobes turned beet red when called on in class
– an Eric Clapton in the making
– so lucky to have had him in our lives
– his sweet, genuine smile
– his wonderful guitar playing at Eighth Grade Graduation and how happy he was that night
– such a sweet, sweet boy
– cute, shy “Godzilla loving” pal
– an exceptional person
– a bright, funny, and talented member of the Garrison community-
– a special person whose music was exceptional
– what a talented musician
– always had a wave and a smile for us

Happy Valentine’s Day, Cailean. Love forever, Mom

I think about u and i browse through ur web page once in awhile. When ever i pass ur house in Garrison, i always say a quite prayer for u. I hope u r happy where ever u may be. Maybe one day we will meet again…

Didn’t Have Time To Say Goodbye

Didn’t have time to say goodbye
As the angels carried me into the sky
As I turned to look back trying to see
I knew that tears would be shed for me

Nothing would I’ve changed that fateful day
When God called me to come His way
All fears, doubts, and pain were gone
Nothing but happiness as I entered God’s home

I looked and saw family and friends grieve for me
In everyone’s sad heart I saw a special love for me
As I was gazing at the family I left behind
God promised me we would be together once more in time

Cry not for me anymore but only rejoice
Before my death I made the right choice
I’m in heaven today just where you wanted me
Thanks to the prayers that were prayed for me

In due time we will meet again once more
I’ll be waiting as you enter God’s door
What a great reunion that will be
As we praise God together you and me.
