Dad, Now You've Laid Your Body Down
Thy Will be done Lord, as Thy Grace takes Its course...
A kiss of peace and reconciliation I laid upon your forehead...
Our fingers held together on the edge of your sick bed...
I know, in the silence, in our looking at one another, we said all that needed to be said...
Now, All is Peace...All is Grace...
No feigned affection, for we arrived at our Truth, didn't we, Dad?
Never have I felt so close to you as I do now that you're gone
I see you walking calmly through the Lord's peaceful open fields with His cool and Healing wind blowing against your spirit, refreshing you...
Just as you had so longed and needed It to,
The Lord never refuses His children who long to be with Him,
and tho' I weep within and without,
I endure all things, alone,
For with Our Father above, we are not alone, not even in grief.
I love you Daddy,...always...
I pray for you still, for prayers are not lost on those departed...
I sing my song for you, "When I Lay My Body Down"...
Only for you...
Your son,
From the Voice of my Shadow
"Tho' weeping endures but for one night...Joy comes in the morning" (Psalm 30:5)

I miss you Dad
Dad, you left us too soon...my heart is hurting and my tears are flowing for you. My heart aches for my Mom and all the family. May we be comforted with God's Grace and may we find peace in our hearts, knowing Dad is not suffering anymore and he has gone to his eternal Home with Christ, our Saviour.
Dad, you gave me years worth of memories, from teaching me guitar, singing country music together, lots of laughter, sharing your faith and quoting the Bible which you loved, trips to restaurants (you loved to eat at restaurants!), vacations together and so much more. Most of all, you gave me unconditional love, even with all my quirks. I will cherish the words to the song you used to sing to me:
Don't ever take the ribbons from your hair
Each tiny bow is tied with loving care
You're pretty as a picture and I love each precious curl
Your mommy's little problem but your daddy's little girl
(by Eddy Arnold)
I wish I could hear you sing it to me one more time....
I love you, Dad....you've gone ahead of all of us, to be with Jesus. We'll meet you there later, and you can sing that song to me again...
Love Pumpkin xoxo

Toute la famille
Nos plus sincères condoléances à toi Doreen ainsi qu’à toute ta famille. Même si nous ne nous étions pas vus depuis longtemps, on pensait et parlait souvent de vous et des beaux moments que nous avons passé ensemble à Sawyerville. Même loin des yeux, on reste près du cœur. Bon courage pour la suite.

Doreen and children
I have nice memories of Leo being supportive of and very interested in Christian youth work in the Sawyerville, Birchton, Lennoxville. He always had a positive attitude and great sense of humour. His smile was contagious.
I wish I had gotten to know his musical talent. He used to talk about Ernie Lindel, if I recall correctly.
All this being said, I want to extend my sincere condolences to each family member who is feeling this loss so keenly at this time.
Very best regards to all,

Famille Hamel
C’est avec beaucoup d’émotion que j’apprends le décès de M. Hamel, mon CHAUFFEUR PRIVÉ comme aimait à le nommer ma famille.
En 1974, j’étais une petite fille de 5 ans de la municipalité de Sawyerville. J’allais à la maternelle au Sawyerville Elementary School et M. Hamel venait me chercher à la maison (chauffeur privé) pour me conduire à l’école aller-retour à chaque jour pendant toute la durée de l’année scolaire, le matin, le midi et le soir. J’ai de très beau souvenir de mes promenades en véhicule de police et parfois même il me laissait actionner les sirènes. L’année suivante, mes parents ont décidé de m’envoyer à l’école primaire à Cookshire, alors terminé le chauffeur privé. Par la suite, à chaque fois que je le rencontrais, il me saluait avec chaleur jusqu’à son départ comme policier pour la municipalité de Sawyerville. Je ne sais pourquoi il m’avait choisi mais je vous remercie beaucoup M. Hamel de cette grande gentillesse et attention à mon égard.
Votre Mademoiselle Linda!
Nos plus sincères sympathies à vous tous de toute la famille Deblois de Sawyerville.

Until We Meet Again
I still can't believe what has happened, it's all so surreal,
I'm at a loss for words to describe the pain that I feel,
My heart aches, my head's spinning inside,
Still grappling with why, "Oh God why?"
I know the answer, I've heard it before,
And yes, I know he's not suff'ring anymore,
His body weakened by disease, he still battled on,
My Daddy, a resilient man, a man so strong,
For weeks I held onto "Miracles happen, right?"
But my precious Daddy would not win this fight,
On March 31, Daddy passed away,
Never ever will I forget that day,
My mother, sister and I at his side,
He quietly left us, this was goodbye,
It's not easy losing someone you love,
Even when it's to Heaven above,
Oh dear Papa Bear, until we meet again, please know,
That your little "Nina, la crotte" will forever love you so.
May you rest in peace, Daddy. Love always,
Leona
