In Loving Memory of
Thomas Patrick Moore
November 17, 1963 - January 17, 2005


I'm Free

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I'm following that path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard Him call.
I turned my back, and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work, or play.
Tasks left undone, must stay that way.
I found that peace at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss.
Ah yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I've savored much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts, and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free!

These two images above are loving gifts to Angel Thomas from my dear friend, Carol, mom to Angel Michael.



And this is a beautiful gift from my friend, Judi, Mom to Angel Andrew.





Aunt Bernie and Thomas, 1965.


Dear Thomas -

As I sit and think of you, I remember the day you were christened. At the time I was only 13.
I remember the times you would take my son Thomas on the bus to town. I can still hear my Thomas calling you "The Big Me."
Now you are both together, I miss you both,
no time to say Good-Bye....


I know how much you enjoyed being up-state with Grandma and Uncle Butchie,
you are all together now.


I can still see the joy on your face when you had your first son Thomas and then Mario. I realize now that you have tried many times to put your life back together, and I know that you loved your boys. I realize now that you were a slave to addiction that I can only imagine in my worst nightmare. I am sorry for not understanding, but I love you now and always.

Aunt Bernie




Mom, Dad, brother Bobby, Thomas, sister Theresa.


DREAMS

You were here the other night,
So alive and well it seems.
But I awoke and then I knew,
You were only in my dreams.

The tears then came so quickly,
For the time with you was brief.
You were alive and talking,
If only in my grief.

I heard your voice and touched you,
As if you were with me.
But I awoke and realized,
This was not reality.

So I'll take my dreams, whenever they come,
And keep them close to my heart.
Cause in my dreams, you are alive,
And we are never really apart.
Written by Joy Curnutt, always Jason's mom


In 1978 Thomas was godfather to my son Roger. This is at the christening.



From January of 1982, that's me in the middle, Thomas' Aunt Bernie. On my left is Thomas,
on my right Bobby (Thomas' brother) and then in front my son Roger, Thomas' godson.

FOREVER

I may be invisible to your sight
But I'm forever here
You may not hear me speak
But I'm forever whispering in your ear
You may not feel my touch
But I'm forever by your side
You may not feel my presence
But I'm forever going to remind you
my soul has NOT died
You may not see my face
But I'm forever smiling at you
You may not know I'm there
But I'm forever watching what you do
I may not breathe the same air
But I'm forever holding you
And though I can not be seen
I'm forever, like my love for you.

WHERE DO I GO?

Now that you're gone, where do I go
to see your fair smile, to hear your tingling giggle
to smell your dank hair after a swim
to listen to your questions
to touch your gentle cheek
to feel your bear hug?

Where do I go to share all my years of wisdom
to find someone who'll tell me the truth
to answer the phone that won't ring
to tell you I'm sorry to know that I am loved

I shall go to the pictures that hold you forever
to the books we shared
to the music you taught me to love
to the woods we explored as one
to the memories that never fail
to the innermost reaches of my heart
to where we are always together.

On Memory

When you remember me,
it means that you have carried
something of who I am with you,
that I have left some mark
of who I am on who you are.
It means that you can summon me
back to your mind
even though countless years and miles
may stand between us.
It means that if we meet again,
you will know me, and hear my voice
and speak to me in your heart.
For as long as you remember me,
I am never entirely lost.
~Frederick Buechner


This was done by Thomas' son Thomas, Jr. The boys picked this picture.




Bernie asked me to have the song on here, Take My Hand by Elvis Presley, because Thomas liked Elvis alot. In fact, when Thomas was 13, he went to see Elvis with his Mom.

   


Thomas also liked the group Kiss.



His family lives in Long Island by the beach, so of course he also liked the beach.



Thomas also was a talented plumber, he could fix just any pipe.

Dear Bernie and ANGEL Thomas

Your ANGEL is with you
He hasn't left you for ever
He is just away for a while
Look up at those stars
One of them is Thomas's
It is his window to his HOME
He sees you all the time
He smiles and waves at you
Open your heart, Bernie
You will feel him around you
He is also waiting for you At those GOLDEN GATES
PLEASE BELIEVE THAT
HAVE FAITH
