Derm. you know our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time...Geri was a very special woman, Alought we only met once in Kingston she will always be remebered by Sheila and myself. She will always be your Belfast girl..
YOUR LAGAN LOVE...

Where Lagan sream sings lullaby, there blows a lily fair
The twilight gleam is in her eyes, the night is on her hair
And like a lovesick lenanshee she hath my heart in Ihrall
Nor life I own, nor liberty for love is lord of all

And ohen when the beetle's horn hath lulled the eye to sleep
I steal unto her shieling lorn and thro' the dooring peep
There on the cricket's singing stone, she stirs the bogwood fire
And hums in sad, sweet undertone the song of heart's desire

Her welcome like her love for me is from the heart within
Her warm kiss is felicity, that knows no taint or sin
When she was only fairiy small her gentle mother died
But true love keep s her memory warm, by Lagan's silver side

Dermot ~
*sigh* David & I send our hugs and kisses to you and the kids. I'm not elequent with words, but I'll say this. Geri's fight was not in vain. For everyday that Geri won; that terrible disease lost. And not just for Geri, for the kids and everyone else in this world who fight the good fight. You & the kids have our thoughts and prayers.

Graymyst, Dragon & Dragonfly.

It has been a long time Tir Na Nog. I thank you all for your warm and sincere expressions. God Bless You All, Love, DFF

Miceal, Claudette has informed me that you may not have been at the Funeral Mass. I want you to know that my family and I also honored your Da and said a prayer for his passing as well. I'm sorry you missed that. Your Da was a cool guy, honestly! Please call me Mick?

May your family find peace in shared memories,
And strength in each other's love

Fionn:

So sorry for your loss. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

To Miceal & Tsionna,
And all who have suffered a heavy loss. This is
something that has highlighted my beliefs. It
helps me through these sorrowful times. I pray
that at least one other person receives some
comfort from this. Thank you too everyone for
the e-mails of support. Love, DFF

“September”
Death is nothing at all. It does not count. I have only slipped away into the next room. Nothing has happened. Everything remains exactly as it was. I am I and you are you, and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by the old familiar name. Speak of me in the easy way, which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of Solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without an effort, without a ghost of a shadow upon it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was. There is absolute and unbroken continuity. What is this death but a negligible accident? Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner. All is well.
Rosamunde Pilcher

Thank you Dermot,
Miceal

GOOD-BYE
(Written 1986)

It’s time to say good-bye love,
You’ll always be my true love,
I’ll love you all eternity.

It’s hard to say good-bye but,
I’ll trust the perfect union,
We’ve made while here together as one.

We’ll always be together,
For now and then forever,
You’re mine through all eternity.

Nothing can prevent us,
From our eternal treasure,
It’s something more precious than life.

Something shared together,
We’ve worked so hard together,
To make our family memories.

Our family is forever,
You’ve given me a treasure,
That nothing else can steal away.

We’ll always be together,
For now and then forever,
You’re mine through all eternity.

Nothing can prevent us,
From our eternal treasure,
It’s something more precious than life.

It’s time to say good-bye love,
You’ll always be my true love,
I’ll love you all eternity.

It’s hard to say good-bye but,
I’ll trust the perfect union,
We’ve made while here together as one.


AN ETERNITY, FOREVER GONE
(Words January 82- Music September 89)

What is a moment
Without you?
An eternity
Forever gone...
...Complete emptiness.
An eternity
Forever gone...

While thoughts of you
Still warm my heart,
A single tear trickles...
...then it drops.
Do you hear it now?

The hush, hush, glow
That warms my soul.
A single tear trickles...
...then it drops.
Do you hear it now?

CHORUS
...That lonely ache
Is there, because...
...I miss your love!
(Repeat chorus then next verse)

A mixture of emotions
Swirling ‘round.
The tenderness of love
Wells up, leaving cloudy eyes.

What is a moment
Without you?
So much more
Than simple good-byes.
An ETERNITY
Forever gone...
Forever gone...
Forever gone...
Forever gone...

my condolences for your loss fionn, i hope that knowing that she is in a place with no tears, no sorrows and no pain can somehow lessen your grief
