It’s my husband Pat’s 8th Anniversary today 22 June of his death from early onset Alzheimer’s disease.

Some people make a difference
Just by being who they are.
Their inner light shines bright
And touches lives
Both near and far.

A brick now in Celtic Park for him to be remembered.

CR, i didn’t think for a second that i would breathe again after the loss of my Dad.... it was just too sore and the thought of ever losing my fella doesn’t bear thinking about.

That would be worse.

Can’t imagine the sorrow you carry.

HH to Pat RIP fella and keep watching over your good lady.
 
Some young men seek adventure and they dream of foreign lands,
Some young men represent you with the labour of their hands,
Some young men cross the ocean in search of greater wealth,
Some young have a notion to drink to your good health

Young men become men and they set themselves to finding,
A love they can defend which is permanently binding,
Some men spend their years being so blind they cannot see,
They struggle with their fears and without a bride to be

One man took the notion and so carefully he chose,
To share all of his devotion with the heart of CelticRose,
Together they shared joy and pain now with children by their side,
Eternally they will remain united in their pride

When Pat took wings and ventured home he knew he would be forgiven,
As CelticRose stood all alone her good man gone to heaven,
I'm sure she wil recall when Pat whispered in her ear,
"I'll not be long without you, I love you so, my dear"

And CelticRose will not forget the man who shared her life,
And Pat will never be apart from the Rose he made his wife.
And when they're back together and are strong in their embrace
It will always be forever and it will always be with grace.

Oh SP thank you so much for writing such a thoughtful poem about me and my late husband Pat. Apart from it being so apt and fitting as Pat was a man with an enormous amount of integrity, and with a clever dry sense of humour.
Also thank you to everyone else who took time to read my post and then respond.
We certainly are a Celtic family and are here for each other in times of need. HH?
