To the Furmanek family, deepest sympathy for your loss. It was with a heavy heart,when I heard the news of my aunt's passing. She was a big part of our lives growing up, and her and my mother were not only sisters, but were the best of friends. She is now reunited with her family in heaven.

I will always remember all the times you were present in our lives while growing up. I am sadden by your passing as a better and more innocent time has gone with you. My condolences to my cousins and  family that must endure this loss.

It's strange walking into my room now, without glancing into Grandma's room and seeing her. The room is empty, but my memory of her will remain. I remember when I was 10 years old and Chelsea was 12 years old, one day we went into her room to say hello. Randomly she told us "Men think black underwear is sexy."  We instantly bursted out laughing and in turn she sat up a little, tilted her head slightly sideways and said, "What? They do!" I will miss you Grandma and you will always be remembered for the many times that we shared. Fly high with the birdies :) Love you

The wonderful memories I will always have of me and my Grammy....remember when I recorded you and you told me to delete it cuz u dnt like the way your voice sounded? Well... I didn't delete it, so grateful of that, I loved your voice and will forever be able to hear it! Easters and Christmas eves on Galloway, crossword puzzles and wjye radio..so many wonderful memories. As I sit here reminiscing you were the best lil Grammy ever!!! 

With love and light you fought your fight and now your moving on..from Earth to Sky you now can fly sending blessings to all of us on your way, for you no longer can stay...Your spirit is free and our hearts may ache but your love for us will forever be!  Owl love you always Grammy!!!  ;)

The most wonderfulest  grandmother a boy could ask for always there for me Always made me very happy most generous and devoted person some could ever meet we will all miss you & we all know your looking down on us and guiding us in the right direction.

 Grandma I miss you so much I remember coming over to your house after school making grilled cheese and feeding the outside birds then finding that toad in your garden she was huge so I took her home Thanksgiving at your house with grandpa and the rest of the family I love you grandma

Very sad to here , I am married to Uncle Joes niece Lisa , I met your mom many times Uncle Joe would ask me to make sure there TV was working .They were very sweet people . We will say a prayer for them.

I am so sorry for your loss. In time your heart will mend, but you will always have the wonderful memories to keep with you forever.

I am forever grateful and appreciative to have grown up with you and Grampa as so much a part of my 40+ years of life. I carry your wit, and sense, and strength with me always. I miss you terribly. Love, "Tar".


Coslorga Footprints


Tá daoine a shiúlann inár saolta agus shiúlann amach astu go luath...
Some people come into our lives and quickly go...


Tá daoine a fhanann ar feadh tamaill...
Some people stay awhile...


Agus fágann siad rianta a gcos ar ár gcroíthe...
And leave footprints on our hearts...


Agus casann ár n-anamacha port nua go deo deo.
And we are never, ever the same

So sad to hear the news, but grateful that I have so many happy childhood memories of my aunt and her many visits to our home. I can see her smiling face now if I imagine. Gone but never forgotten. 

Thank you Kyle for the call.

Maddy and Maureen, My most Sincere Sympathy on the loss of your mom Marian. May your fond memories get you through any difficult moments.         Though it has been many a year Maureen,what I do remember was that your mom was nice to me,the girl from down the street.

Maureen, I pray for God's love and compassion to fill all of you to give comfort to you and your family. 
Love and Hugs.

 You have my deepest condolences!! Lord, plz give Maureen strength & comfort to carry on.

May the peace of God encompass this family as they lay to rest their mother, grandmother and great grandmother and in the days to follow, Peace be with you

Maureen I know losing a mother is one of the hardest things we have to face. Please know you and your family have my deepest sympathy. I am sending you all my thoughts and prayers. Bless you.

An Irish Funeral Prayer

Death is nothing at all.
It does not count.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
Everything remains as it was.
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 sorrow in your tone.
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  effort
Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was.
There is unbroken continuity.
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 around the corner.
All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost.
One brief moment and all will be as it was before.
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting,  when we meet again.

Please accept my deepest sympathy, may you rest in peace and your family find comfort

sorry for your loss Maureen. Prayers for your Mom and your family

For you to have a lovely daughter like Maureen you must have been an amazing lady.  RIP.

Of all the saddest days in a person's life, the saddest by far is when they lose their mother. 

Maureen, how can I totally express how sorry I am to know the passing of someone so dear. I know it's never easy to bear that pain and I feel for you. My prayers are with you always.  Condolences my friend.

Maureen, I So loved the photo you shared of you and mom. The saying a picture says 1000 words is so apt. It showed so much love that I could feel the heartbeat. I am truly sorry for your loss, but deeply comforted that you had such a wonderful loving relationship. God bless you and your family!

Marian, you had to be a wonderful beautiful woman just from knowing your daughter Maureen. May you rest in peace in the arms of our loving Lord. Love to the family.
