Do not shed tears when I have gone but smile instead because I have lived. Do not shut your eyes and pray to God that I'll come back but open your eyes and see all that I have left behind. I know your heart will be empty because you cannot see me but still I want you to be full of the love we shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live only for yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of what happened between us yesterday. You can remember me and grieve that I have gone or you can cherish my memory and let it live on. You can cry and lose yourself, become distraught and turn your back on the world or you can do what I want - smile, wipe away the tears, learn to love again and go on.Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider


This memorial website was created to remember our dearest Robert (Bob) Burgess who was born in United Kingdom on June 29, 1943 and passed away on September 11, 2015. You will live forever in our memories and hearts. Bob was an amazing person,with a great sense of humour. Whoever meet him,will never forget his smile and jokes. He was a good family man too, love his partner of 14 years,jenny, his two dogs, Benjie and Bj that were a great company to him,his brothers and sister and children.
He loved Music, his favorite singer was Elvis Presley, and loved cooking a good homemade meal.


The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

  He makes me lie down in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters.

  He restores my soul.

He leads me in paths of righteousness

for his name's sake.

  Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil,

for you are with me;

your rod and your staff,

they comfort me.

  You prepare a table before me

inthe presence of my enemies;

you anoint my head with oil;

my cup overflows.

  Surelygoodness and mercy shall follow me

all the days of my life,

and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord

forever.

Prisca Something beautiful remains October 2, 2015
 
We're living in world, stars and dust
Between heaven 'n all that surrounds us
We're travellers here, spirits passing through
And the love we give, is all that will endure
Just like a rose after the rain
Something beautiful remains
Tears will leave no stains
Time will ease the pain
For every life that fades
Something beautiful remains

Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears

It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.

My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know.

My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.

Prisca Rest in Peace Bob October 2, 2015

You must now be looking down at Jenny and your family,smiling and looking after them.

You are Gone but never forgotten in our Hearts.
Rest In Peace.

Hendrick Polanco My deepest condolences October 16, 2015
 

My deepest condolences.  May these few words from the Holy Scriptures bring you comfort in your time of grief...

John 11:32-45

32 And so Mary, when she arrived where Jesus was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled; 34 and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus gave way to tears. 36 Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!” 37 But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”

38 Hence Jesus, after groaning again within himself, came to the memorial tomb. It was, in fact, a cave, and a stone was lying against it.39 Jesus said: “TAKE the stone away.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to him: “Lord, by now he must smell, for it is four days.”40 Jesus said to her: “Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Therefore they took the stone away. Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.” 43 And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!” 44The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth. Jesus said to them: “Loose him and let him go.”

45 Therefore many of the Jews that had come to Mary and that beheld what he did put faith in him;

Carol Belcher A letter from heaven October 3, 2015
 
To my dearest family some things I would like to say
but first of all to let you know that I've arrived ok
I'm writing this letter from heaven, here I shall dwell with god above
Here, there's no more tears of sadness, just eternal love
Please do not be unhappy, just because I am out of sight, remember
that I am with you every morning, noon and night
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through
God picked me up and hugged me and said I welocme you
Its good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone
As for your dearest family, they will be here later on
I need you here badly, you are part of my plan there's so much that
we have to do to help our mortal man
God gave me a list of things that he wished for me to do
and foremost on the list was to watch and care for you
When you lie in bed at night the days chores put to flight
I am close to you in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth
and all those loving years because you are only human they are bound to bring you tears
but do not be afraid to cry, it does relieve the pain, remember there would be no flowers
unless there was some rain. I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned. If I were
to tell you, you wouldnt understand but one thing is for certain though my life on earth is o'er
and you've got me on your mind I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind and when its
time for you to go....from that body to be free remember you're not going but coming here to me x

God called your name so gently, that only you could hear. No one heard the footsteps,of the angels drawing near,softly from the shadows,there came a gentle call,you closed your eyes and went to sleep.you quietly left us all.
Rest in peace Bob.
