JoAnn - I am thinking of you and your precious son, Sgt. Pete on his "special" day. Just know that he is not forgotten by not only those whom had the honor to personally know him in this life, but by strangers whom have become family as well. (((Hugs, dear friend)))

Waiting for you to be born

February 10, 2011
by JoAnn Maginnis

My dear Son, 46 years ago we were all waiting for you to come into this world which was already filled with so much love for you.  But you had other plans, you didn't want to face this world till March 2.  The wait was well worth it. 

My tears get stronger as this date approaches.  You should still be here, you suffered so much, the last 10 years before you died.  You have found Peace at last my Son, a peace that is eternal.  I cry everyday, but I know it was "Your Way" and for this I am proud of you.  Not proud because you left, but proud because you did what you wanted to do.  You never really left us Pete, you are in the sun, the wind and the stars at night.  I may not be able to see you, but I know you are right besides me.  Rest in Our Mother's arms my baby....I love and miss you so very much.    Your proud Mom

They say there is a reason, they say that time will heal,
but neither time nor reason, will change the way we feel.
For no one knows the heartache, that lies behind our smiles,
no one knows how many times, we have broken down and cried.

We want to tell you something, so there won’t be any doubt,
you’re so wonderful to think of, but so hard to be without.
We cannot bring the old days back, when we were all together,
the family chain is broken now, but memories live forever.

God called your name so gently, that only you could hear.
No one heard the footsteps, of Angels drawing near.
Softly from the shadows, there came a gentle call,
you closed your eyes and went to sleep, and quietly left us all.
They say there is a reason, they say that time will heal,
