Well I know I said this was supposed to be a sad moment but I can't help but want to talk about all of the good things first .When we're looking trying to find a dog we really didn't know what we wanted just a good ole pup was it . I seen pictures of these dogs online when I was looking at school during free time and made sure to write the name of the dog down “French Bulldog” or “Frenchie” they kinda looked like a pug with bat ears . I came home and showed the pictures to mom and Tristan online and we all fell in love with them so the search began we started looking every where searching for the right one ….and right price. We finally found one up north I don't remember exactly where it was but I do remember mom driving up their one evening and not getting back till late and the best thing was the next morning that is how she woke us up! I never will forget waking up to that cute little dog licking my face . Although we still had a problem we still hadn't thought of a …show more content…

One of my earliest memories of Grandpa begins with us driving to the Monmouth Park Racetrack. We sure did love to go to the track and root for Julie Krone or one of our other favorite jockeys. He loved challenges, and he especially loved the challenge of picking the ponies. He would read the race programs in the Asbury Park Press and usually pre-pick most of the day's favorite horses before ever leaving the house. Still, on arrival, we always bought the program and maybe a race sheet or two before entering the track grandstand. After picking up a couple of seats right around the finish line or maybe a little past it, back to figuring he'd go. As he went, grandpa would always point out the horses that had won recently or looked like they were due. "I have a feeling about this one" he'd say.
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.

On November 16th each of the individuals on this altar were to take part in what would have been the most special day in Michael’s life… the day he would have taken Stephanie’s hand in marriage. Instead we stand before you today and attempt to eulogize a great friend and beloved brother.
I stand before you today to pay my last respects, and to say my final goodbyes, to my father Harry.
Yesterday, as Martin's friends poured into town, I was struck by how many distinct sets of friends he had. Family, skaters, punks, his Swampland posse, his boys and his girls, Professors, colleagues, Ann Arbor friends, Chicago friends, cyberspace friends who'd never met him "in the flesh"... Trying to walk down the street with him was an exercise in frustration, as Martin's fans flocked to him like the Pied Piper. He was so much, to so many. One of his greatest gifts to us is each other.
I met Rich at freshman orientation at Lynchburg College in August, 1975. My freshman orientation packet said that I was to meet with my group at my assigned table in the dining hall. After getting my dinner, I found the right table and sat down across from another freshman. There was no one else at the table. I think it was fate. After what seemed like a couple of minutes, a conversation started. We talked about our hometowns. He told me that his family lived in Manassas, but that most of his life was spent in Naples, Italy. As you all know, he was very proud of his Italian heritage. He was very proud of his life, family, and friendships in Italy. After awhile in this conversation, I asked him if knew anything about school sports. “I would like to run cross country,” I said. Well with that question, there was much to talk about. It did not take too long to realize that while I enjoyed running, for him, it was his passion.
Taking care of a dog for me is not going to be easy. Anyway i chose the white dog with the black spot around it’s eye, the golden retriever, and the one with the broken leg with white soft fur that feels like a soft pillow. But no one seems to want this small dog. Poor dog poor poor dog. I think i know which one i want and she is the one with white soft fur with the broken leg that has been here for almost a year. She is a small dog most likely a chiwawa. Now it’s time to call my mom
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.
I ran outside to see if the news were true and it was. He was doggy paddling to the steps of our home. I grabbed him and held him in my little arms. My uncle handed me a towel to dry him off. That was only day one.
Today we celebrate the life of my dear friend, Jerome. Jerome, you were my teacher, my mentor and my dear friend. You provided me your counsel and wisdom. You shared your joyous smile and laugh. You shared your zest for life and the passion for all those things that were important to you.
Before I begin I would like to thank all of you here on behalf of my mother, my brother and myself, for your efforts large and small to be here today, to help us mark my fathers passing.
Hello Mr. Gill, honestly now, she knows that’s so wicked, immoral, dishonest, and I’m sorry to hear this has happened to you. Well, getting to know a person requires much more than the time it requires some praying about that person first before making a commitment. I’m sorry to that has happened to you. Because no one deserves to be treated so awful and wrong, but you know that the seeds you sow will come back to you. I know I kept reading that you were no longer single and were off the dating market. Mr. Gill, I have never met you in person, but I was so hurt. You have a million ladies who were crying :) Sometimes I ask myself how is it possible for me to fall in love with your voice. I’ve had a very bad day at work; students wanted to
I believe in jesus christ, how he died for me on the cross, how he gave his life for me and my family and friends, how he's coming back to take me to heaven with him so I can see all of my family and friends that he has took on the live with him..
The day Mom got Sugar was somewhat frightening for me. Obviously, I wanted nothing to do with the dog, I never planned to be in the same room as the dog, much less, take care of the dog. After all, Mom was supposed to take care of the dog. Slowly, I fell in love with her. She looked stern and loving. Her warm, brown eyes and pearly white smile only helped me fall in love with her. Not long after that I started to enjoy her company. Sugar was a loyal dog, she wanted to please everyone. When we went for a walk Sugar would come with us. We kept her on a leash, yet she never strayed from us.
