Memoriams


Phillips, Mel and Marie (Hedican)

Dad - June 8, 2007
Mum - June 8, 1996

We thought of you with love today but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday and days before that too.
We think of you in silence, we often speak your name
All we have are memories and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake with which we'll never part
God has you in His keeping, we have you in our heart.

Lovingly remembered by your children and grandchildren


J.P. Létourneau
May 29, 2007

One year already, you went to a better place where you have no more pain.
I face an empty chair, but sometimes in the silence, I imagine you there.
My companion for so many years, no longer here with me,
any yet in some mysterious way, you keep me company.
Often I turn towards the couch to say something to you,
Just to realize it is empty.

I have a digital frame on my desk, with many pictures of you,
I laugh, I cry, I get mad with you.
You have spoiled our little dog so bad,
When she starts to whine nonestop,
I tell you if you were going to spoil her this much, you could have stayed here with her and me.

You know they say memories are golden,
Maybe that is true,
But I never wanted just memories of you, I only wanted you.

You were a loving husband and father, grandfather and uncle.
You neve said goodbye to me, maybe it was best that way,
because I wouldn't have been able to say goodbye, and you knew that.

Still very missed and loved.
Love, your wife

Dorval, Diane (May 9th, 1988)
Dorval, Laurent
(January 30th, 2005)

We thought of you with love today
But that is nothing new,
We thought about you yesterday
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence
We often speak your name,
Now all we have are memories
And your picture in a frame.
Some may think you are forgotten
Though on earth you are no more,
But in our memory you are with us
As you always were before.
A million times we've thought of you
A million times we've cried,
If loving could have saved you
You would have never died.
You left us beautiful memories
Your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you
You are always at our side.
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you did not go alone,
Part of us went with you
On the day God called you home.
Forgive us Lord, we’ll always weep
For the mother and father we loved, but could not keep.
 
We miss you every day
Love always Judy, Debby and Bryan


AUCLAIR, Helen

In loving memory of a wonderful mother, who passed away 12 years ago on April 27th.

I'll never cease to miss you, and shed many silent tears,
Because I cannot share with you my hopes, my joys, my fears
Beside your grave I often stand, with my heart both crushed and sore,
as the tears I shed roll down my face.

A million times I've needed you, a million times I've cried,
If love could have saved you, you never would have died.

Things we feel most deeply are the hardest things to say,
Mom, I really loved you, in a very special way.

If I could have one lifetime wish, one dream that could come true,
I'd pray to God with all my heart for yesterday and you,

And as I place the flowers upon your grave, I know they may wither and decay,
But the love for you who sleeps beneath shall never fade away.

To hear your voice, to see your smile, and greet you at the door.
But all I can do, dear Mother, is go and tend your grave,
And leave behind tokens of love,

To the best Mother God ever made, it broke my heart to lose you,
But you did not go alone, for part of me went with you the day God called you home.

And if tears could build a staircase, and memories a lane,
I'd walk all the way to Heaven, and bring you home again. 

You are always on my mind and in my heart Mom
Love always your daughter

Nancy

----

In loving memory of my dear mother, mother-in-law and grandmother who passed away 12 years ago on April 27th.

We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly, and in death we do the same.
It broke our heart to lose you, you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,
And although we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again. 

Love always;
your son Richard, daughter Nancy, son-in-law Martin
and grandchildren Brandon, Kyle, Tyler and Brett.

----

In loving memory of a loving mother, mother-in-law, and grandmother who passed away 12 years ago on April 27th.

A gentle wind blew cross the land reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came calling out a mother's name.

Left behind, the children's tears loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent and now to God a mother's sent.

On angel's wings, a heavenly flight, the journey home, towards the light.
To those who weep, a life is gone, but in God's love, 'tis but the dawn.

I pray you'll be our eyes, and watch us where we go,
I pray we'll find your light, and hold it in our hearts,
Help us find a place,
Guide us with your grace,
Give us faith, so we'll be safe.
 

Love you always
your family
Nancy, Martin, Brandon, Kyle, Tyler, Brett and Richard


Armstrong, Cecile

In memory of our cherished Gram and great Nana who passed away on April 22, 2007.

We thought of you with love today but that is nothing new
We thought about you yesterday and days before that too,
We think of you in silence we often speak your name
All we have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is our keepsake with which we’ll never part
God has you in His keeping we have you in our heart.

We miss you Gram. 

Forever in our hearts,
Robin, André, Alexandra and Hailey

------------------------

In loving memory of our dear mom Cecile Armstrong
who passed away April 22, 2007.

Mom, I think of good memories. 
You were always there for us.
You always cared for us so well.
You were so good and true.
Our love for you will live in our memories.
We miss you. 

Love always, forever remembered and sadly missed by your daughter Veronica and son-in-law Charlie. 


McDonald, Verna

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free; I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took the hand when I heard the call; I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way; I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss; Ah yes, these things, I too, will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow; I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much; Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief; Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me; God wanted me now, and set me free.

If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane;
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Missing you every day
Your daughter, Judy


Faylene (Andrechuk) Gauthier

       Remembering Mom

We know that your with angels now,
And your safe and free to fly,
We feel you watching over us,
And that angels never die.

You are forever loved - forever missed

MATHISON, Gary Edward

August 22, 1957- February 27, 2004

His life was earnest, his actions kind,
A generous hand, an active mind,
Anxious to please, loath to offend,
A loving brother and faithful friend.

Four years have passed, the memories
Remain as if it were yesterday.

Miss you,
Jayne

MATHISON, Gary “Coach”

In loving memory of a very special coach,
who is missed everyday.
Especially when I step on the ice
and play the game we love so much.

You have made a difference in my life
and will always have a special spot in my heart.

You are and will always be the #1 coach!

Love,
Tanya Lamon #19

MATHISON, Gary “Coach”

Four long years have passed yet...

Every day, in some small way,
Memories of you come my way.
Though absent, you are ever near,
Still missed, still loved, and ever dear.

 
Nickee

LAVOIE, Leonard
"Foxy"

In loving memory of a loving father and grandfather who passed away four years ago on February 15th, 2004.

In our hearts your memory lingers,
Always tender, fond and true.
There's not a day, dear father, grandfather,
that we do not think of you.

We love you and miss you so much!

Chris, Christine, Kelsey & Dylan


My Rock (My Mom)

Sometimes I catch myself thinking, "When I phone, I can talk of this or that!"
Then remember, I'm alone.

She was always there to answer my calls, to listen to my "small talk"
Or when I climbed the walls.

At times, I didn't feel like talking and somehow, she understood -
Didn't say she wished I'd call or make me feel like I should.

Now, I wish I would have more times, to show I cared -
To say, just how important were, all those times we shared.

I could have shown my love so much more than I did -
I never, did it enough even when I was a kid.

Now it's too late to do or say all those things I wish I had -
No way to ease the pain inside when my heart is sad.

She was my "anchor" to this life -
The "rock", that I clung to -
The place, where I could turn when, nowhere else would do.
Now, the ravages of time have worn my "rock" away -
And all I have to cling to are memories of yesterday.

You are in my thoughts and heart everyday and I miss you so much
I love you
Laurie


Ross, Gerry
In loving memory of our dear sister
who passed away January 20, 2006

January comes with sad regret,
A month we shall never forget,
A day to remember, sad to recall,
Losing you was the hardest of all.

As time unfolds another year,
Silent memories keep you near,
No longer in our lives to share,
But in our hearts you are always there.

Each of us in our own special way,
Remembers you with love on this day.

Sadly missed by your siblings,
Orville,(Judy) Clifford,(Judi)
Sharon,(Harry) & Jim,(Cheryl)

Mom
“Gerry Ross”
Sept. 15, 1939 to Jan. 20, 2006

If Roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me
Place them in my Mother’s arms
And tell her they’re from me
Tell her I love her and miss her
And when she turns to smile
Place a kiss upon her cheek
And Hold her for while
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day
But there’s an ache within my heart
Because I’m missing her today...
 
Love you, ME


LOWE, Jacob Taylor

Oct 19/1992 - Dec 12/2005
Your forever in our hearts

Mom,Dad and Delmarr


In loving memory of our grandson Jake Lowe who passed away December 12, 2005

This day is remembered and quietly kept,
No words are needed we shall never forget,
For those we love don't go away
They walk beside us every day.
Unseen and unheard, but always near.
So loved, so missed, and so very dear.

Grandpa and Grandma Lowe


BRIERE, Eva (Giguere)

Passed away December 6th, 1998 in Elliott Lake.

God looked around his garden,
And saw an empty space.
Then he looked down here on earth,
And saw your loving face.

He put his arms around you,
And lifted you to rest.
His garden must beautiful,
Because he only picks the best.

A million times we'll miss you,
A million times we'll cry.
If love could have saved you,
You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a special place,
No one could ever fill.

It broke our hearts to loose you,
But you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God took you home.

Love and miss you always,
Ron Briere

LOCK, Doug

In loving memory of a wonderful and loving father, grandfather and great grandfather Doug Lock who passed away 25 yrs ago. Sept. 11, 1982

If tears could build a stairway,
and memories a lane.
I would walk right up to Heaven
and bring you back again.

No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say "Goodbye."
You were gone before I knew it,
and only god knows why.

My heart still aches with sadness,
and secret tears still flow,
What it meant to love you
no one will ever know.

But now I know you want us
to mourn for you no more
To remember the happy times
life still has in store.

Since you'll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today
A hollowed place within our heart
is where you will always stay.

Always remembered and never forgotten.  Sure miss you Dad with all our hearts.
Love Lee, Doug, Jody, Darren, Keely,Josh, Shannon, Owen, and Jaya.


ROSE, Bill
Feb. 6, 1945 - Aug. 6, 2006

In Loving memory of my Wonderful husband Bill, who left our world far too soon.
We made our vows together and said, "Till death do us part".
But when god reached out and took your hand,
My whole world fell apart.
When I look back upon our lives,
One thing that makes me glad,
That you chose me to share with you,
Those precious years we had.

Loving you always,
gerry
(your Bride)

P.S. Thanks for the Rainbows!!


ROSE, William G. (Bill, Poppa, Chief)
Feb. 6, 1945 - Aug. 6, 2006

It’s been a year since you’ve left me here,
I miss you dearly; I have so much to tell……
 
Devon started football,
Logan graduated this year,
And Poppa so did I.
 
So many times I’ve picked up the phone
to tell you  new things that have happened,
But as I began to dial….I knew that you wouldn’t answer.
 
It’s been so hard without you near
The reason still unclear.
But you’ve taken with you all I’ve ever wanted to say
And I’m so thankful that we had a heart to heart that day
 
I miss looking into your eyes, talking to you,
bothering you immensely, or just silently holding your hand while you slept.
 
No one will ever know how much I Love You, Miss you, and Think of you, Poppa,
No one but me!
 
Love
Offspring


ROSE, Bill (Poppa)
Feb 6, 1945 - Aug. 6, 2006

What would I not give to clasp your hand
Your dear, sweet face to see;
To hear your voice, to see your smile,
That meant so much to me.
You left behind an aching heart
That loved you most sincere;
I never did, nor ever will
Forget you, Poppa dear.

You are forever in my heart, thoughts, and in my days

Love,
Logan William


ROSE, Bill (Our Poppa)
Feb. 6, 1945 - Aug. 6, 2006

Dear Poppa;
 
I missed you a lot when  you were in the hospital,
And now that you  have left me I miss you even more!
I want to give you a hug like we always use to
but now its to late.
Now that God took your hand,
and took you away from me.
But I just wanna say thank you for coming in my dreams
and talking to me
cause that’s the only time we are near and get to talk.
but you are always in my heart and I know I’m in yours.
I’m loving you always Poppa.
 
Love
Devon

August comes with sad regret,
A month we shall never forget,

No longer in our lives to share,
But in our hearts you are always there.

Each of us in our own special way,
Remembers you with love on this day.
Sadly missed by your family,
We love you and miss you

Love, Suzanne, Bill, Carole, Jose & Preston

MY LAST GOOD BYE

He was like the rest of us, born into poverty.
Not much of a future, that was plain to see.
But he made an effort, and always did his best.
When success began to come, he worked, and didn't rest.

You were the greatest friend someone could ever find,
So thoughtful, loving and kind.
I've been blessed having you as my brother in law,
I've always looked at you and found inspiration,
Bringing my greatest vision,
With the determination I've learned from you.
There's so much, words can't say.
Hands that gently rocked your kids cradle
Hands that held France through all those years
Hands that wiped away her tears when she was sad
Full of love but very strong,
Just to make sure she was happy, you'd give her a kiss or hug
Making her feel safe and snug.
A kind, soft spoken Dad, with a heart of gold.
He speaks of a past memory of things that he has done.
His kindness for everyone.
The man is full of wisdom, he always gives away.
He filled our lives with laughter,
Treasured moments spent laughing together,
Spreading love that was made in heaven.
I'm thankful I found this and more
Wrapped up in your loving ways.
You were a person anyone can adore,
And often receive their praise.
My sister fell in love with you, and all her dreams came true.
When she chose you she didn't know, that her family would love you so.
I thank the Lord when I pray, that you did came along our way.
You've added such a special part to her family and her heart.
Most brothers-in-law aren't like you, spreading kindness in little things they do.

I want to let you know JP you will be miss by many friends and Family
If you are bored on top of your cloud drinking your coffee look my way.
And touch Roger in a special way and touch his health
Roger sure will miss you and you were Angela's best uncle.
We will all miss you specially France and your sons and Grandkids
I did this Poem to say to you my last Good Bye.
And keep us all a little place on your cloud when our turn come.
Rest in peace Bro and May God Bless you

From Your sister in Law
Colette
