Michael’s Months Mind will be celebrated at Mass on Sunday, December 29th in

St. Nicholas’ Church at 12 noon. All very welcome.

 

 

Softly in the morning,

You heard a gentle call,

You took the hand God offered you,

And quietly left us all.

The day you left us Dad,

Our hearts just broke in two,

The smallest part is still with us,

And the biggest part with you.

For the rest of our lives,

We will miss you Dad,

Our secret tears will flow,

Oh, how we really loved you,

No one will ever know.

We miss your smile, your joking ways,

We miss the things you used to say,

And when old times we do recall,

It’s when we miss you most of all.

You were always there when we needed you,

No task too great or small,

With loving heart and willing hands,

For us you did it all.

Look around your garden Lord,

And when he turns and smiles,

Put your arms around him

And hold him for a while.
