Daniel Perez Jr

Susie & Rebecca, thank you so much for remembering Patrick's 4th Angelversary.  It's a painful experience that has brought us into each other's lives...I really appreciate your support as we continue our journeys ...until we're reunited with our Angels Danny & Patrick.  I like to think that they are there for each other too. God Bless you both & your families.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

A light will shine on us this day:

the Lord is born to us.

This will  be our second Christmas without you Danny. Trying my best...I know you would be so proud of your girls. Abby went to the Homecoming Game. She's playing in the Mariachi School Band. She loves to sing. Alexa made "Student of the Week." They are beautiful girls. Danny how we need you. We miss you so much. I still keep looking  at cars that go by. Watching drivers. Wondering. Looking for you. Waiting for you. It hurts so much. Nothing is the same anymore. I've always wanted you to be happy. And i know you couldn't be at a better place.

Look down on us and guide us. Stay close to your girls. Protect them. I miss you so much!!!

God, send your precious Angels to guide us and help us find peace. Give us a peaceful, joyous, blissful and a Miraculous  Christmas. AMEN.

              Lighting a candle for my son Patrick

Before I lost my son Patrick

Lighting a candle was just a tradition

To get my prayers answered more quickly,

But today after I lost my son Patrick

Lighting a candle is a painful reminder

Of my greatest loss of a beautiful life cut

So short... My son Patrick.

Lighting a candle is now an unthinkable,

Unbearable reminder of so many hopes

And dreams taken away from me.

But in the depth of my sorrowful journey,

Lighting a candle is also precious

Memories of Patrick that are taken into my

Broken heart and shattered soul as a

Keepsake to keep his memories alive

Beyond my life on earth.

Lighting a candle for my son is my faith

In God to embrace Patrick's new life

As glorious and peaceful as His kingdom.

Lighting a candle for my son Patrick is a

Symbol of my eternal love for him

That I am his mom and he is my son for

Eternity, for love never dies but grows

Deeper.

Lighting a candle will always surround

The beautiful soul of Patrick wherever I am

To guide him into eternal life.

Lighting a candle says it all Son:

I love you

I miss you

I need you

I am here for you always

You see, God, lighting a candle is a

Must... A link from me a lost mother to my

Beautiful son Patrick.

O Lord, Let it Shine High and Bright!!!

Amen. Amen. Amen.

Dedicated to my son Patrick Christian

LostMom to Patrick Barbosa

Heaven is the home where spirits dwell
Who wandered here a while
And seeing things invisible,
Departed with a smile.

In this morning, we pray:

Sun of Justice, light our way.

in all our work at home or away from home,

illumine our choices by the light of the Gospel:

in all our dealings with loved ones or strangers,

enlighten our hearts with the light of your love:

in all our decisions,

shed upon our path the light of your will:

Sun of Justice, light our way.

♥ ♥ ♥

WE LOVE YOU,

DANNY
