Death Is Nothing At All

By Henry Scott-Holland more Henry Scott-Holland


Death is nothing at all.
It does not count.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
Nothing has happened.

Everything remains exactly as it was.
I am I, and you are you,
and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged.
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.

Call me by the old familiar name.
Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was.
Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it.

Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same as it ever was.
There is absolute and unbroken continuity.
What is this death but a negligible accident?

Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you, for an interval,
somewhere very near,
just round the corner.

All is well.
Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost.
One brief moment and all will be as it was before.
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!

Fr Pat, a man who touched so mant people's lives and hearts. A joy to have studied with Pat in our small group of 4 in Mount Oliver 86/87. A genuine and holy man-i lionta Dé go gcastar sinn.

Dear Mike and Jacintha and all the family, Sadly we lost touch with you and we had only recently made contact again with Pat on his blog. I wrote there of my memories of my unforgettable holiday with him - the holy wells, the bog, John B Keane reciting W B Yeats to us in the pub in Listowel, the home masses, John Moriarty reading to us some of his writing in Killarney, the Irish culture evening, the Harry Clarke windows in the convent at Dingle, and so much more. Our son Charles had an equally memorable holiday with Pat. What a delightful, thoughtful,
kind man. We look forward to reading his book. And we share your sadness at your loss.

We are now in our second retirement at 29 Sandhill Way, Aylesbury, HP19 8GU. Email: barry.o22@virgin.net

My heartfelt condolences to Fr. Pat's family. A great man and a wonderful friend. Received a message from him a few weeks ago, when I most needed it. Forever grateful for his kindness and humanity - you will be remembered for the good times Fr. Pat.

Heartfelt sympathy to Diarmuid, Michael & Families, on the sad passing of a dear and loving brother, Fr. Pat. His book, ‘Weathering a Storm’, is inspirational. Asdee and the parishioners of Daugh will greatly miss him and be all the poorer by his untimely passing. Tom Enright & Family, ‘The Cross’, Asdee.

Sincere Sympathy to all the family, what a true Gent who will be a great loss.

Kerry's loss is heaven's gain. Sincere sympathy to Fr Pat's family and friends.

Our deepest sympathy to the family,friends and parishioners of Fr.Pat. My family and I have fond memories of Fr.Pat during his short time in the Parish of Kilcummin.

So sorry to hear of the passing of fr pat had the privilege of knowing him and having him as my mentor doing my pastoral ministry course
Read his book weathering a storm and i related so much to it
A true gentleman and a scholar he will be a big loss to the diocese heaven will be a more richer place with his presence may he rest in peace

Deepest sympathy, love and prayers to all Padraig's family and to those who journeyed with him especially Sr. Kathleen. A priest devoted to his priesthood and who grappled with profound truths has now got all the answers! His book, 'Weathering A Storm' gave us all some insight into his soul, heart and mind' and is one of his many legacies to the Church and to the people he served.
God rest his noble and generous soul.
'Loved beyond all telling.'

My deepest sympathy to you all RIP FR PAT a lovely priest.

RIP. Fr Pat.

Sincere sympathy to all Fr Pat's family and friends. I had the honour of sharing my love of poetry with him and I am convinced that he will continue to inspire us all in our journey through life. He is freer now more than ever he was. He weathered his storm excellently and is a marvellous example to us all.
