MARY MAGDALENA DOLENUCK May 23, 1949 - January 17, 2009 Make me to say, when all my griefs are gone, Happy the heart that sighed for such a one! Samuel Daniel What does one say to a beautiful lady who, at the Party, accepted me for the Dance of Life? What can one say to she who in giving of her love, made me see the beauty of the world and all that was in it? How can one describe the feeling of stumbling; yet being lifted by an understanding partner to complete Life's goals set out before them? What words can explain the total love that you gave to me and in return, allowed me to truly understand its full meaning? The tears of grief are all but gone; the Void, a little smaller and the burning pain bearable. Instead the droplets now ripple on a pool of wonderful memories; memories that make me smile and be ever grateful in having met and loved you. Sometimes there are no words to fully express how we feel; so I will simply say - Thank you Sweetheart for being you and for becoming a wonderful part of my life. Love eternal, Rick MARY MAGDALENA DOLENUCK May 23, 1949 - January 17, 2009 My Snowflake Angel By Tamara Laschinsky I know you are near, each and every day. I know you are speaking, though I can't hear what you say. Sometimes I can't believe, that all that's happened is for real. Sometimes it's clear as crystal, other times - a dream; surreal. I miss you so much, want to hold you so tight. You haven't left my mind though, you are in my dreams most every night. How could something so cruel, so unforgiving and insane, be created on this earth, to offer so many, so much pain. You, were my best friend. And now you are gone. So much taken for granted and now it will be no more. I know you are close by and that you have reached a new level in your journey through life. I wish I could still hug you, laugh with you, wish things had turned out all right. You are my best friend, and this will always be. You were my mother in this life, and now you are free. Free to be an angel, dancing wherever you choose to be. A rainbow, a sunset, a warm summer's breeze. Right now you dance on snowflakes and they sparkle all around. I love you Snowflake Angel, and miss you something dear. I will see you in my dreams, and take comfort you are always near. Thank you for choosing us, to share with part of life. The memories and fun times, the sadness and strife. Would not have given up the chance for our paths to have crossed. Will focus on what was gained and cherish it - rather than dwell on what was lost. Love forever your children ~Tamara and Sean
