1st anniversary away from home

To the one i love
I want my bubbly husband back,the one with sparkling eyes
To see his three beautiful boys,and for him to burst with pride.

I want my bubbly husband back,the one with the sparkling smile
To tell him how much i love him,to hug and kiss him for a while.

We never wanted you to go, you broke so many hearts
and while we sit here all alone,the heart of our family is gone.

We miss and long for you martin, we cry for you everyday
we long to touch and kiss your face, i know we will someday.

I have always been afraid of dying, of the fear ,the grief, the sorrow
for the ones you leave behind and know there's no tomorrow.

We love and miss you martin, of this we cant deny
we pray and hope your happy and keeping a watch full eye

sweet gentle jesus up above
give my husband a great big hug


love you always martin from your heart broken wife and sons,adam alex and sean

i cant believe a year has gone

If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again

No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know

But now we know you want us
To moun for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store

Since you'll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you will always stay

martin your missed so very much it shows what a place you made in everyones hearts who had the honour to know you

"You were a brother kind & true how could we ever stop loving you"

I've sat to write this a hundred times & if I sat a hundred more I still coudn't put into words what you mean to me, you are my brother,friend,listner,confident and yes boss!. You are so badly missed by us all,more than anyone you included could probably ever imagine. You have touched and loved so many people in your life and I want you to know how much you were loved back. I promise we will do our best to make you proud of us all, as proud as we are of you. I hope and pray everyday that you are happy and at peace.

'They say there is no reason
They say that time will heal
but neither time or reason
will change the way I feel
for no one knows the heartache
that lies beneath my smile
no one knows how many times I've broken down and cried'


Loving and missing you now and forever, Teresa xxx

Loving you

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, i do not sleep.
I am the star that shines at night
I am your silent guiding light.
I am the wind blowing through the trees
I am the foam upon the seas.
on winged flight i sail on by
I see below as i fly on high.
I am always standing by your door
so look for me and cry no more.
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there, i did not die.

The tide recedes,but leaves behind
bright seashells on the sand.
The sun goes down,but gentle warmth
still lingers on the land.
The music stops,yet echoes on
in sweet,soulful refrains.
For every joy that passes,
something beautiful remains.
Miss hearing you everyday my friend xxxxxx

Ode to Martin Kelleher

I have known Martin for many a year.He was such a knowledgeable,witty individual who I know is missed by the many people who knew him and none more so than his family.
One of life's true nice guys.

An Ode To Martin Kelleher

The phone would ring “Martin, James O’Gara Line one”
He’ll be with you in a minute please hang on,
“J...O…G how are you” he would ask
“I’m not bad and you?”
“Oh you know pretty crap!”

From the “old cattleshed”Capital did form
With Borg & Beck clutches our friendship was born
It became more than just business proven over many a pint,
Discussing many a subject: oh yes you were right!!!!!

On the occasions I’d visit, upstairs to the office we flew
When things got a bit difficult…”Teresa a brew???”
Business with you was a pleasure to do and learning together
We jointly grew.
It’s still so hard to believe that you’ve gone
But one thing I’m sure of, your legacy lives on.

Still many people for you they do mourn,
Can’t come to terms with why you have gone.
With Kim and the boys I can but share their pain,
Life without Martin can it be the same?

Well the phone will not ring now
“Martin, James O’Gara line one”
But please rest assured that your memories live on.

R I P Martin

missing you

there are no words to describe what life is like for us since you have gone.to see the twinkle in your eye,to see you smile,to hear your voice,to hold your hand,these simple things we so long to do.the way you left us so quickly is what kills us all.if i had known something was wrong i would never have left your side that night.you left behind two beloved passions,capital and john and the boys and myself.we are all so lost without you.we think about you every second of the day and night.i have no words to describe the pain in my heart for you.i am a better person to have known and loved you and i know i have tasted love and it couldnt have been stronger.the only regret i have is that it didnt last longer.look after us martin,keep us safe.love you always.
