Dearest parents,
It’s sad that you are not here with us on this Christmas day - 2020. You always made Christmas so special for us. When I look towards the sky, I see some sparkling stars blessing me from up above and I know it’s you, my PARENTS, blessing me. Though physically you both are not here with us to celebrate Christmas, you will always be there in our hearts and alive in our memories. You have always made our Xmas special with your love and care.
This Christmas all the memories of celebrating Christmas with you are remembered. We are sending you our love and prayers through these Merry Christmas wishes. May Jesus always be there to take care of us all. Love you both.

My Dad my Idol, i missed u so dearly. Can't stop think about u and our sweetest Mum. My heart still bleed at the thought of missing both of u. May ur gentle Soul continue to rest in peace with the Lord AMEN .

Today makes 4 years of your passing.
Father, while remembering today as the day you left this world, we recall the passing of our Mother too. Like the great souls that never die, we believe you are still around and will bring us together again and again. Yes, love is immortal, and death is only a horizon.
We your children will always remember you both - those special smiles and laughter and those caring hearts. We will always remember you our father and mother because there will never be any others to replace you both in our hearts, and the love we will always have for you.
As we look back over time we find ourselves wondering…did we remember to thank you enough for all you did for us. For all the times you were by our sides to help and support us…to celebrate our successes, to understand our problems and accept our defeats. Or for teaching us by your example, the value of hard work, good judgment, courage and integrity. We wonder if we ever thanked you for the sacrifices you made to let us have the very best for your meagre means.
If we actually forgot to show enough gratitude for all the things you did and sacrifices you made for us, we are thanking you now and we are hoping you have always known how much you meant and will always mean to us.
Father, Mother, we love you both for an infinite number of reasons. I personally feel so blessed to have had you as my parents and I’m thankful for the wonderful life you gave me. I would like to celebrate you: magnificent man and woman, loyal, loving, devoted father and mother, and true friends of everyone. Please know that my list of gratitude is endless for you both.
I will remember all you taught me. I am touched by your passings but won't be sad, because you will always be my parents.
Rest in perfect peace with our Lord and Savior.

PAPA, THIS IS TO YOU, ON THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF YOUR DEATH
One year ago, this same day, the Lord took you away;
Now you dwell in that place beyond the stars.
A hole you left in my heart that day.
A year has passed and still I wear the scars.

I cried the day you answered His call;
Those you left behind still feel the pain.
Your death has left a great big hole.
How we long to have you here again.
We miss your presence each and every day.
Memories of you still keep you near.
Even if you dwell amongst the Angels up there,
Within our hearts is where you'll always stay.

Papa… as a child, I had a million ways to annoy you.
As a teenager, I had a million reasons to defy you.
As an adult, I had a million opportunities to make you proud.
I did all that but I missed out on the most important –
a million chances to say I love you while you were alive.

Your death will always remain a blurry memory.
But your life will always be a vivid one,
the epitome of greatness and sacrifice.
Death may have taken you away from me,
but my life’s hero you’ll forever be.

Papa… even though you are not in front of my eyes right now,
your picture in my heart will remain beautifully pristine forever
To see you I need only look up towards the stars above
There you are, Papa...I can feel your constant love. I miss you my Dear Father.

One year has gone by like a day and I know the pain is still fresh in the hearts of the family. Our faith teaches us that he is in a better place and I believe he is watching over us. To the entire Enci family, I continue to remember you in prayers and implore you to stay strong and put your trust in the Almighty. May his soul rest in peace!

Papa,
You may have thought I didn't see, or that I hadn't heard,
Life's lessons that you taught me, but I got every word.
Perhaps you thought I missed it all, and that we'd grow apart,
But father, I picked up everything, it's written on my heart.
Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be the person I am today;
You built a strong foundation no one can take away.
I've grown up with your values, and I'm very glad I did;
So here's to you, my dear father, from your forever grateful son.
Adieu Papa and may your gentle soul find rest with the Lord.

Dear Father,
I am your child; you are and will remain my father.
I really appreciate the times we've had.
I feel sad having to address you in past tense,
For me you were perfect; you were wise and strong;
You loved your children and family very much
You taught them what's right and what's wrong.
For those reasons I love you, and did promise that,
I want to be a child who will fill you with pride.
From your appreciation before you passed on
Seems I was at the threshold of attaining my promise.
I thank God for his grace unfailing and blessings
Rest in perfect peace my Dear Father with God
Extend our ever green and affectionate love to my mother
Your wife, gone ahead without tasting a glass of water,
From my purse to honor the sweat of her brow
I see Angels busy organizing a big feast in heaven
Not only to welcome you but for the renewal
As you and my mother renew you marital vows
Before the most high presence of our Lord Jesus
Go on laugh and sing together with the choirs of Heaven
As we hope to share in your eternal Bliss.
Fare thee well Father
RIP

My father will forever be my hero. Whatever I am today was because of him & his sacrifices, his belief in me. Even though the rest of the world sometimes didn’t stand by me, he would always be there. His smile, his wisdom, his affection would give me strength. He was diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension in June 2012.
Today when he is gone, I cannot express in words how I feel. He suffered a lot in the past couple of months leading to his death. And I know that in a way he was relieved of his suffering & pain coz he was always such a vibrant, jovial and ever energetic man.
Many a time I get these pangs, wanting to see him again, to speak to him again, to hear his voice. I keep watching his photographs wondering if he is listening. He always told me that he would be there even after he goes... I was fortunate that I also got to spend a lot of time with him, holding his hand, telling him that I loved him. I often wonder if my Father hears me now, if he sees me now... Has anyone ever gotten a sign from their loved ones who have departed? I am still waiting for mine. I don’t know why it isn’t there. Or maybe it is but I am not able to see it. I want to believe he is in heaven & is happy & peaceful; he knew always how much I loved him. Sometimes it feels unreal that he is not there anymore & sometimes when the truth hits me I feel shattered. I just hope as the years pass by, I become stronger. I know I shall remember him every day… Every single day till the day I meet him in heaven again!
Adieu Papa
