Tony`s Place




I dedicate this page in memory of our son Anthony.
Who left this earth at the age of 20 years.He was robbed of his life by a brain tumour.
On Tuesday 28th of October 2003




When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure






What I would give to clasp your hand Your happy face to see To hear your voice and see your smile That meant so much to me. You're not forgotten, my dear Nor ever shall you be; As long as life and memory last I shall remember thee.







I'll lend you, for a little time, a child of mine, "He said, "For you to love the while he lives and mourn for when he's dead. It may be six or seven years, or twenty-two or three, But will you, 'til I call him back, Take care of him for me? He'll bring his charms to gladden you, and should his stay be brief, You'll have his lively memories As solace for your grief. I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth returns, but there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn. I've looked the wide world over In search for teachers true, and from the throngs that crowd life's lanes, I have selected you. Now will you give him all your love, nor think the labor vain, nor hate me, when I come to call To take him back again?" I fancied that I heard them say, "Dear Lord, thy will be done! For all the joys thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run. We'll shelter him with tenderness, we'll love him while we may, and for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay. But should the angels call for him much sooner than we've planned, We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand."





Do Not Stand and Weep

"Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not here, I do not sleep I am a thousand winds that blow I am the diamond glints in the snow I am the sunlight on ripened grain I am the gentle autumn rain When you wake in the morning hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight I am a soft star that shines at night, I am a mountain, I am a tall tree, I am a swift wind sweepin' the country I am a river down in the valley, I am a vision. I'm that star up in the sky I'm that mountain peak up high. So, my family and friends,do not stand at my grave and weep.
As I am not there
