I miss you visiting favorite places
I miss you going to new spaces
I miss you late into the night
I miss you at dawn's first light
I miss you when sadness is around
I miss you when joy is found
I miss you when the lights come on
I miss you when the day is done
I miss you on your special day
I miss you like it was yesterday
I miss you at no special time
I miss you today with every rhyme
~Tonya Lord
At the rising of the sun and at its going down, we remember them.
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter, we remember them.
At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring, we remember them.
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer, we remember them.
At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of autumn, we remember them.
At the beginning of the year and when it ends, we remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live.
For they are now a part of us as we remember them.
When we are weary and in need of strength, we remember them.
When we are lost and sick at heart, we remember them.
When we have joy we crave to share, we remember them.
When we have decisions that are difficult to make, we remember them.
When we have achievements that are based on theirs, we remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live.
For they are now a part of us as we remember them.
~Sylvan Kamens and Rabbi Jack Riemer
Our Lifekeeper Memory Quilts are displayed publicly at workshops and other public events to increase suicide prevention efforts, honor our loved ones and raise the visibility of the public health problem of suicide.
This will be an heirloom quilt that will be cherished for years.
On the quilt square provided, you can create a message, add a picture, etc. to reflect the soul of your loved one. This project will aid in the healing of grief and lend an opportunity for your family and friends to work together to honor your loved one’s life.
We will assemble a new quilt when we have received enough squares.
