Thank you. You've helped me through the highs and lows in my life and was down from day 1. Sometimes I reminisce to that one raider practice and I still remember it like it was yesterday. I can't believe that an entire year has past between us. So many memories to look back at and so many more to come. Adriana, you mean to world to me and i can't imagine what my life be like if i didnt meet you. We have so much to come in future. So many more football games,police explorer meetings,hourlong facetime calls, so many more cookies and ¼ gallons of milk, and so many surprising you with swedish fish when you might not be having a good day, so many memories to come and i can’t wait to experience them all with you. I believe that god has an ultimate
I'd like to say a few words of tribute to this special man, from me and on behalf of other close friends of his.
On behalf of my entire family, I want to thank all of you for your compassion and for being present here today. For those of you who don't know me, my name is Mauri-Lynne, and I'm Lionel's daughter. Dad was devoted to every one of you. We all hope that you'll share your memories of him with us, if not today then in the weeks and months to come.
I also express my gratitude for the attention and support she has given me throughout the time.
I stand before you today to pay my last respects, and to say my final goodbyes, to my father Harry.
With the little things. It's the little things that make up a year, and the years which make up a life. It's the little things that make up the memories. And I have an abundance of those.
Three days ago I was working on a lecture dealing with a prominent figure on the French literary scene who happens to be a Sephardic Jew. He pictures the Jew as essentially a wounded man, one racked by his Jewishness. The world for him is a desert, and God is enwrapped in silence. For him the keynote is exile, the stuff of his writing a kind of brave despair. The news of Hays's death broke into my thoughts on this, and it occurred to me that his philosophy of life could be expressed by reversing this writer's terms. The one saw the Jew as a wounded man; the other saw in the Jew, rejoicing in his Jewishness, the acme of spiritual health. The one saw the world as a desert, the other as an orchard. The one saw God as the God of silence, the other saw Him as the God of communication, one with whom you could stay in touch. The keynote of the one was exile; while the other saw in the combination of Judaism and America the best of all possible worlds.
Did you know the presidential election is coming up? Yeah, sadly it is. It will be sad to see President Barack Obama go and see someone else take his spot. The two candidates for this year’s race will be Hilary Clinton from the Democratic Party, and Donald Trump from the Republican Party. I personally do not like either of them, especially Trump, but unfortunately today, I will give you some reasons to support him. Even though he has a tendency to speak without thinking, he is a great business man with leadership skills who always puts Americans first and loves all races.
My name is Rick. I live in Carmel, California, a place also known as paradise. I work at the US Naval Postgraduate School, as chairman of one of the largest operations research departments in the country.
To my family: Husband and kids: You didn’t sign up for this ride and yet you’ve hung on and have always been my biggest support. I love you and thank God every day for gifting me you.
Prior to our company, I’d been working in the funeral profession for over five years, and one of my tasks was to create memorial stationary, and DVDs. While creating memorial folders, I would often wonder about the type of memorialization I would want for my family, and I realized that funeral homes do not offer items that can be used on a daily basis. I wanted to offer grieving families something personal, meaningful, and everlasting, such as jewelry displaying a loved one’s cremated remains, hair, or small portrait of the deceased. According to an article by National Funeral Directors Association, grieving families are trying to create unique funeral services, with more personalization. “All of this is done to help make the funeral more personal,
Thank you for taking care of Emma and me whenever we were sick. Thank you for showing me what it means to follow what you love. Thank you for showing me how to love. Thank you for letting me discover myself. Thank
As a mother, I realize and truly admire the love you have for your daughter (me). I know you are always there during my difficult times and support me in the way you can. Your phone call and follow-up means a lot to me. Just knowing that, I can count on my mother and she is a phone call away. You are my source of strength
Regardless of everything that happened , you were the reason for my happiness and you meant the world to me . I don’t regret it because you’re one of the best things that ever happened to me even though shit happened along the way . I don't regret it because you made me who I am today and you made me stronger and wiser , and I was never this way before , I never even had this mindset before . and it's just crazy . I don’t know where I’d be if you hadn’t come into my life and loved me the way you did .
A few weeks ago, we lost a very special someone. She is not only special in my life, but for almost everyone in this room. She may be a close relative for some of you, maybe her niece or nephew, granny for the little ones, or even a friend. Sharmaine happens to be my dear mother. To everyone here, I’d like to thank you for the support that you have given our family throughout this hardship.
Ask any of my other five siblings and most of them would probably state, in a mild-mannered tone, that they are happy to finally have a father figure in their lives. This is not the case for all of us. As for me, I’ve grown fond of our situation in the absence of a looming and intimidating father figure. It’s quite liberating. Not having a father for five years has given me a chance to discover myself and my emotions without having to worry about appeasing my parents. Most importantly, it has given me the opportunity to be independent of my father’s abnormal diet choice: Vegetarianism.
