“I promise no tomorrow
but today will always last
And since each day’s the same here
There’s no longing for the past.
So when tomorrow starts without
Me don’t think we’re far apart,
For every time you think of me I’m
Right here in your heart”
David M. Romano
I have so many happy memories growing up with you. You were always a little bossy but that was ok because we never listened to you. I will miss the fun we had,laughing at the craziest things, talking forever on the phone,not me, Kass and you. Sis, may God hold you n the palm of His Hand but not too tight,
Love you, Marge (Mags)
Dear Mr. McCullagh, Eileen, Helen, Joshua, Julia, Jacob, Jonathan & extended family, it is with deepest sympathies that I write this today. Mrs. McCullagh was such a wonderful, loving, caring individual that I am honored to have had in my life and family. As I wrote to Eileen, the very first time I met her, she took me under her wing as if I were another daughter and that truly was an amazing feeling from someone I just met. I am so glad that she was the grandmother to my niece and nephews as she was so caring and a wonderful grandmother to them. I wish I could pay my respects to you there at the service but it’s just not possible so please accept this as my true and deepest respects and know my heart, thoughts and prayers have and are with you all.
So very very sorry to hear of the passing of the lovely Helen. Sincere condolences to John and the whole family. With love from Sharon McGuckin
