LULU. I Love You.
This Memorial is DEDICATED TO ARCHANGEL RAPHAEL, and THE BLESSED SAINT MARTIN DE PORRES.
Saint Martin de Porres - Patron of The Suffering and Animals, (the Saint for Our Times) - please
Bless and Heal all on here. Thank you.
Lulu had been abandoned & appallingly mistreated until I found her in a Rescue Centre. She was
terrified of People but gradually came to trust me, following me everywhere. She was my Best Friend,
loyal and constant companion. Initially, I missed her desperately, and was distraught. With my
entire Family on the other side of the World, Lulu was not 'just a Cat'. She was my Family. We were
a Unit, and still are:)
Lulu had the most mesmerising luminescent silvery-blue eyes. Her Fur is Snow White, and she was so
Fluffy, Adorable & Sweet. One of the most beautiful Cats most had ever seen, (the 'Marilyn Monroe'
of Cats many said, smilingly) with a gentle and wonderful temperament in equal measure.
Lulu is the great love of my love - strange as that may sound to many. You may have surmised I am a
besotted Animal Lover! All kindred spirits will understand:)
She was so very, very special and blessed. How we came to meet, is quite an account, in itself,
actually. It was definitely ‘meant to be'!
She was with me through several Family deaths, my Cousin's suicide, two Friends' deaths, when my
Parents and deceased Grandparents' beloved Pets and Homes were completely destroyed by fire,
together with a few Relatives who had been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
Throughout it all, she comforted me and provided constant loyalty and unconditional love. Thank you
so much, Lulu. You are an Angel.
I was being 'tested' as we all are in this Earthly Life, and it was a particularly horrific time.
You provided infinite and much needed succour, precious one.
Lulu-Poppy suddenly and very unexpectedly, died of an embolism on 10th August 2008. Very sadly, I
never got to say Goodbye, plunging me into total shock. My last image of her was all curled up in a
small white box at the Veterinarian Hospital, dead.
However, I have healed now, and feel nothing but Joy, and Peace when I think of, and sense Lulu
around:)
Thank you very much to those who have left Tributes and/or lit Candles.

♥ TIME WILL EASE THE HURT ♥
♥ by Bruce B. Wilmer ♥
♥ The sadness of the present days ♥
♥ Is locked and set in time, ♥
♥ And meaning to the future ♥
♥ Is a slow and painful climb. ♥
♥ But all the feelings that are now ♥
♥ So vivid and so real ♥
♥ Can't hold their fresh intensity ♥
♥ As time begins to heal. ♥
♥ No wound so deep will ever go ♥
♥ Entirely away; ♥
♥ Yet every hurt becomes ♥
♥ A little less from day to day. ♥
♥ Nothing can erase the painful ♥
♥ Imprints on your mind; ♥
♥ But there are softer memories ♥
♥ That time will let you find. ♥
♥ Though your heart won't let the sadness ♥
♥ Simply slide away, ♥
♥ The echoes will diminish ♥
♥ Even though the memories stay. ♥

~ I Felt an Angel ~
(Author unknown)
I felt an angel near today, though one I could not see
I felt an angel oh so close, sent to comfort me
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I felt an angel's kiss, soft upon my cheek
And oh, without a single word of caring did it speak
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I felt an angel's loving touch, soft upon my heart
And with that touch, I felt the pain and hurt within depart
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I felt an angel's tepid tears, fall softly next to mine
And knew that as those tears did dry a new day would be mine
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I felt an angel's silken wings enfold me with pure love
And felt a strength within me grow, a strength sent from above
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I felt an angel oh so close, though one I could not see
I felt an angel near today, sent to comfort me.

paws that have the quiet touch,
Purrs to signal "all is well"
and show more love than words could tell.
Graceful movements touched with pride,
a calming presence by our side
A friendship that takes time to grow
Small wonder why we loved you so. xx

"How long will the pain last?" A broken-hearted mourner asked me.
"All the rest of your Life," I have to answer truthfully. We never quite forget.
No matter how many years pass, we remember. The loss of a loved one is like a major operation. Part of us is removed, and we have a scar, for the rest of our lives.
As years go by, we manage. There are things to do, things to care for, tasks that call for full attention. But the pain is still there, not far below the surface.
We see a dog or a cat that looks familiar, hear a voice that echoes, see a photograph we put away, see a landscape that once we saw together, and it seems as though a knife were in the wound again.
But not so painfully. And mixed with joy, too, because remembering a happy time is not all sorrow; It brings back some happiness with it, too.
How long will the pain last? "All the rest of your life."
But the thing to remember is that not only will the pain last, but the blessed memories as well.
Tears are proof of life; The more love, the more tears. If this be true, then how could we ever ask that the pain cease altogether? For then the memory of love would go with it.
The pain of grief is the price we pay for love.

~~ Don't Wait For Me Outside the Pearly Gates ~~
(by Jeanie E. Tam. Copyright 2009)
Don't wait for me outside the Pearly Gates,
though the field is golden and the wind is sweet.
Go on in, cos I might be late,
and say hello to my grannies, whom you may meet.
Think of it as a vacation,
where you'll run freely, and bounce, and binky,
with plushy grass to lay your head
and no prey or pain to make you weary.
If Fate will have it our way,
the years will come to pass.
With all my deeds fulfilled, as He has intended, I pray,
I'll be at my destination at last.
I will tread on the golden field,
the same field you once were wandering.
It is beautiful there, I'm sure.
But it's no use standing there waiting.
So don't wait for me outside the Pearly Gates,
though the wind is sweet and the field is golden.
Just come greet me at the opening gates
when I arrive, and walk with me into Heaven.

Memories
Memories build a special bridge
when loved ones have to part
to help us feel we're with them still
and soothe a grieving heart.
Our memories span the years we shared,
preserving ties that bind,
They build a special bridge of love
and brings us peace of mind.
I Came To Brush Your Tears Away
~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~ *~♥x♥~
My dearest loved one, here on earth,
I saw a tear fall down your face.
You didn’t see me standing there,
Nor could you feel my soft embrace.
But I was standing next to you,
I know you looked around.
You seemed to wonder what it was
You thought you heard a sound.
Yes my love, it was I,
Who came to check on you.
I saw a tear fall from your eye,
I knew you were feeling blue.
Even though you cannot see me.
Please know that I am near
I am now an angel from above
To brush away your tear.
I know each day you think of me
And many times shed a tear.
But please just close your eyes
And know that I am near.
As I have told you often,
Do not be afraid to cry.
It does relieve the pain
Knowing we had to say goodbye.
One thing is for certain,
Even though life on earth is o’er
I’m still closer to you now
Than ever I was before.
I know you still don’t understand
Why I had to leave this earth
God doesn’t have any secrets;
It’s just all planned from our birth.
Someday when you have joined me
And meet God at His Throne,
It’s then you will understand
The questions that have been unknown.
