“Family Chain”“Family Chain”“Family Chain”“Family Chain”

If Love could have saved you You would not have died.

If tears could bring you back You’d be by my side.

It broke our heart to lose you,

But you did not go alone; For part of us went with you

The day God called you home.

God takes us one by one And breaks the family chain.

But somewhere in a better land Our chain will link again.

In Loving Memory Of

Fr. Brian Clare Fawcett

1965 ~ 2011

“When I Must Leave You”“When I Must Leave You”“When I Must Leave You”“When I Must Leave You”

When I must leave you for a little while Please do not grieve and shed wild tears

And hug your sorrow to you through the years But start out bravely with a gallant smile;

And for my sake and in my name live on and do all things the same,

Freed not your loneliness on empty days, Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer

But fill each waking hour In useful ways, And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near;

And never, never be afraid to die. For I am waiting for you in the sky

In Celebration of the life of

Father (Padre) Brian Fawcett
