Patricia DeMuro Obituary

Hi Jan, Lou and David
Chris called and told me about Aunt Pat and Uncle Louie, I am so sorry for your loss. Bringing them together as you did was a wonderful end to their story. The two obituaries I have read are beautiful. They were a very special couple and I know you miss them terribly. We did have some good times when we got together for picnics or birthday parties. My prayers are with you and your families. With Loving Care your cousin Mary (Vlamis) Ballowe

Such a loving couple is surely together again in a much better place. Mr.Thomas Lee Perry Jr.

Lou,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Jan, Lou & David,
I just found out about your loss. Words cannot express how sorry I am. I have some wonderful memories of growing up with all of you and all the Aunts & Uncles. As far back as I can remember Aunt Pat & Uncle Lou were always so in love with each other. I was very sad to hear of their passing but was happy to hear that they are & always will be together. A true story of soul mates.

From the Oak Park family of Lou DeMuro, thank you to everyone sharing their stories and sending their sympathy. Their passing together has lessened our grief, knowing they are together still.

Oh my...I am sobbing in my lunch! What a beautiful story. Your family is one of the fortunate to have had such wonderful parents. I hope your parents get to meet my parents in heaven. They too were a special couple and exceptional parents. It's a very difficult time right now my dear, but the beautiful memories and love they have for you help us to cope. Much love and respect for you and your family.

Rick And Jan, my family owned Roselle Travel. We had the distinct honor to consider them friends as well as clients. It was not hard to see the love they shared. We are sorry to hear for your loss.

Wow! I read your folks' story during my lunch hour and almost started crying...those could be my folks, raising our family in a 2-flat in St. Angela's parish. It's a wonderful Chicago story and deserves the special attention it received. micki leahy

My condolences for your loss, and my encouragement for your days ahead. This is a beautiful story, thank you for sharing your experience with us. God is awesome, and just as He held them, He will hold you and yours. Be encouraged!

Sorry for your loss - both at once is a blow. What a love story they lived. Sandy Hotchkiss Gullans

What an amazing gift, for them to be together in death as they were in life. True love has no boundaries. May God strengthen you and yours during this time of loss.

Rick and Jan,
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. What an amazing love story your parents shared. May you be comforted by the knowledge they are together in Heaven.

I read your parent's beautiful obituary on Sunday morning with tears in my eyes. How wonderful to know that your parents had such love for one another. Although I didn't know them, your telling of their final hours and the powerful love they had for each other provided a most touching obituary. I consider myself a spiritual person and believe this is an example of the power of the human spirit. May their souls rest in peace and their love comfort you in your loss.

What a beautiful love story. I wish I would have had the pleasure of meeting your parents. My parents are 87 and 85. I hope they pass at the same time too. I can not imagine them existing with out each other. My deep condolences and sympathy. Hope you and your family are O. K. Even though I do not know you, Please know that the story of your parents' life has touched me. Your thoughtful obituary was one of the most touching that I have ever read.

Jan, Rick and family. I'm sorry that I didn't get to know the senior DeMuros. I am priveleged, however, to know their daughter and her husband and children. I know you are burdened with grief right now, and that you will always miss them terribly. I also know of your trust in God and that He is your greatest source of comfort and strength. You also know that you can count on me any time I can be of help. You continue regularly in my prayers. Your friend, Darrel Davis

I do not know the DeMuros, however, I found the story touching and powerful. I am sorry for your loss, but am so happy that Lou and Pat are together in heaven and did not have to be apart for long. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Beautiful. A testament to their love.

What a wonderful love story. The real thing! How blessed they were to have each other for so long...

I didn't know Lou and Pat but as a native La Mesan, I wanted to send my heart out to your family. I lost both my parents at Grossmont Hospital and have used the facility many times. Mostly I wanted to thank you for sharing the story with all of us readers as many simply report the death. I appreciate their love and thank you for sharing..

My mother lives at the retirement home (Waterford Terrace), and she told me of this story, of both of them passing within hours of each other...what a true love story. I am sorry for your double loss, but think it is a blessing they will not have to live without one another...heaven has a new couple.

I am so sorry for your loss...The Blessing you have received is that one did not have to be here without the other. My Maternal Grandparents, married 67 1/2 years, both passed away on April 4, 2008, 20 minutes apart, 1 mile apart, both of natural causes. The only thing that has kept our Families going is in knowing the fact having one here without the other would have been more painful to the surviving spouse as opposed to us now. My heart & prayers go out to your Families. God Bless!!

Dear DeMurro Family:

May the love that they shared carry you through the pain of losing both of them. Their story is beautiful and serves to remind us all about the strength of love and the bond of true friendship.

Take care of your hearts.... and know you have angels there to help you.

We don't see much of this depth of LOVE in marriages today. Find comfort in these words. "Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not gaze about, for I am your God. I will fortify you. I will really help you. I will really keep fast hold of you with my right hand of righteousness." Isaiah 41:10 San Diego,CA.

What a Beautiful Story and Tribute to your parents. They were true soul mates. Take comfort in their un-dying love for each other and that neither one of them will have to grieve. Our heats go out to you and your family, God Bless!

my heart aches,&my thoughts & prayers are with your family at this time..But I also want you to know,that the story you've told of the incredible love between your parents made me start to believe in love all over again-even while it made me cry. I can only hope to someday find someone who will love me that much-or that I will love at the same time. How incredibly fortunate,&rich their lives must've been to know that kind of love.It's the kind that most people spend their whole lives looking for..but never find. Your parents were rich in a way even the most wealthy people on earth could never be,and I hope they passed that love on to all who come after them..It's a lasting legacy few will ever know...and though I'm sad for your loss-I also envy you..for I will likely never know,or have the most important thing any human could ever have-true,and lasting love. Never,ever forget what you are so lucky to have experienced up close..celebrate the lives,and love of two very special and big-hearted people..and know that you are the legacy of that love. They will always be watching over you..and always loving each other.. Sincerely, Karrie Aldrich, Lakeside,CA
