And before I forget Papa, Izabella kisses your picture every time she goes to sleep whether it is nap time or night time she has a picture of you and her and kisses it non stop saying Papa. When she see's me she is very excited to see me but she also looks for her Pap and then gets very sad because Papa is not with me.

I love you and I miss you everyday of my life. I still can't believe that God took you from us. But I have to truly believe that God has a plan and that included you to take care of our grandchildren as you always did. But to make sure that Liam would be cured of cdg. I miss you and I will always miss you. Happy Birthday my love of my life forever and ever.

Ray and Sharon, we fondly remember the two of you always being together and the love you had for your sons and grandchildren. We remember a funny story of Sharon setting the Thanksgiving turkey on fire and Ray running over to our house to call the fire dept. Thank God it all turned out well and with a funny story in the end. We were sad to see you guys go when you moved a few years ago and hope that your last years were filled with love and happiness. We love you guys: Pete and Laura Doyle, your Dover Road neighbors across the street. May you rest in peace Ray and that your memories live on forever in your family as they will in ours.

Aunt Sharon, Michael, Kevin and Raymond,
I am so sorry for your loss. Uncle Ray was a great man and he will be missed by many. There are too many memories to pick just one, but I think some of his happiest times were when he was with his grandkids. There was just a certain light he got playing with them and talking about them that I will never forget.
I am also so very sorry I cannot be there with you all right now. Please know that I am thinking of you all and sending you lots of love and light.
I love you all.

Ray,
Work will never be the same without you. I keep waiting for you to come up to the counter and make me laugh with all of your crazy jokes. I will miss your trips to the vending machine for "snack time" as you called it. You were a father/grandpa figure for me and I'm going to miss you very much. A few weeks ago, when your son came in to buy his car, you brought each of your grandkids up and introduced them to me. I will miss your stories about them. You loved them so much and your eyes lit up everytime you talked about them. Anytime someone asks me about my Life 4 Liam bracelet, I tell them Liam's story and what a great Papa he has. To the Quirk family, my prayers are with you at this time.

Dear Caroline,
I looked forward to meeting your father-in-law at Izabella’s 2nd birthday celebration but the turns of events was unfortunate. I only heard wonderful things about him through conversations with your mother during the last year. His passing seemed to happen too fast for you, his family and friends. Please accept my condolences and extend the same to Mike and his family during this time and know that you are in my thoughts.
Love,
