He needed us to protect the angels from evils sin. The sun is bright but we can still see you from the clouds above. Knowing it was sooner than we all thought but there is still our love. Babe, I will protect our son from anything as you know I will. He will be by my side through everything even when time stays still. My heart is with you when you have only cried. There will be moments for you would feel my presence and remember it is us there by your side. Tell Jacqueline to keep those grades up for she had worked so hard for. Let Adam know I will make sure we practice as hard as the oceans waves come crashing upon the shore. Tell Lucas don't give up for he would become the knight he always wanted to be. Now don't worry I didn't forget our little hanna for she is my love and destiny. Your eyes are my stars now as I watch you from above. Knowing you are safe and knowing we were in love. A knight doesn't cry but well the tears are falling from these two blue eyes. For we will be missed by many and remembered as you look upon the midnight sky. Your smile I loved and the memories we shared are always going to be inside one knights heart. Let the others know marc loves you all from the beginning and from the start. Well he is waiting for us as we stand here looking down at the ones we will miss. For now we are his knights in armor for his protection against evils mist. We stand upon the gates for his protection and honor but you know my love is with you. I ain't mad for anything but just upset for marc he is the one who helps us through. So let me leave you with a memory of the two of us. For there is an angel down there by your side as he will tell you to " Move That Bus ". We love you with our heart and for now I got to go. For marc is the knight who leads me to be the one who needs to glow........ Dear Family,

We are here safe as he had welcome us in.
He needed us to protect the angels from evils sin.
The sun is bright but we can still see you from the clouds above.
Knowing it was sooner than we all thought but there is still our love.
Babe, I will protect our son from anything as you know I will.
He will be by my side through everything even when time stays still.
My heart is with you when you have only cried.
There will be moments for you would feel my presence and remember it is us there by your side.
Tell Jacqueline to keep those grades up for she had worked so hard for.
Let Adam know I will make sure we practice as hard as the oceans waves come crashing upon the shore.
Tell Lucas don’t give up for he would become the knight he always wanted to be.
Now don’t worry I didn’t forget our little hanna for she is my love and destiny.
Your eyes are my stars now as I watch you from above.
Knowing you are safe and knowing we were in love.
A knight doesn’t cry but well the tears are falling from these two blue eyes.
For we will be missed by many and remembered as you look upon the midnight sky.
Your smile I loved and the memories we shared are always going to be inside one knights heart.
Let the others know marc loves you all from the beginning and from the start.
Well he is waiting for us as we stand here looking down at the ones we will miss.
For now we are his knights in armor for his protection against evils mist.
We stand upon the gates for his protection and honor but you know my love is with you.
I ain’t mad for anything but just upset for marc he is the one who helps us through.
So let me leave you with a memory of the two of us.
For there is an angel down there by your side as he will tell you to ” Move That Bus “.
We love you with our heart and for now I got to go.
For marc is the knight who leads me to be the one who needs to glow……..

God Bless you Girad family. I want to also ask God to bless all of you who have prayed for this family with loving words of hope encouragement, wonderful memories. It has given more insight on the type of man and son they were. I feel so badly for Hanna. I hope everyone continues to pray she doesnt feel guilt. That she knows of her Fathers love for her and he wants for her to feel and accept that love and hope and not hold the pain of wonder or doubt if she was a negative factor. Hanna baby both your Daddys love you and want the sparkle in your heart to shine though your eyes and light up the world-in whatever way that may be. The pain will never go completly away, but over time and with God it will hurt a little less. Your dad would want you all to smile and be happy. I hope all of you can find peace in your souls and love in your hearts!! I also just saw your story on ABC!! God Bless you Girad family.

We cried together over so many things, but we always managed to get through because of each other. You were always my strength when I needed someone to listen....a shoulder to cry on....someone I could always truly be "me" with. You loved me inspite of my short comings.... I will treasure "all" of the memories of you for every day of my life. When you left us you took a big piece of my heart with you, but I know you are always still there with me and always will be. Give Mom, Dad, Larry and Marc (and Ray's mom) the biggest hug ever for me and some day through God's grace we will all be together again. Only you know the true meaning of this statement "you showed them who you really were, their loss that it took losing you from some people to realize it!", you know who I mean......I'm so proud of who you were on this earth, the love and faith you had in God and our Blessed Mother, the love you had for your family, for our family, every day you showed it in every way. You were and still are a fine example of goodness for everyone. My faith is stronger because of you. My life was truly blessed the day you were born and I'm proud that you are my brother. So many people are honoring you...I'm sure you are watching from heaven wondering what all the hoopla is about, and in your own humble way you are thinking it's all over done, but you and Marc truly deserve the honors that are being given to you. Thank you for introducing me to the Knights of Lepanto, I see now more of what all of our conversations were about. As for Marc...Marc...what can I say...you were the quiet one, you always had a way about you though that I could see through....the gentle smile with the silent sarcasam...some people would catch it others wouldn't. When I think of you I see your silly little smile that I always loved so much...I too am very proud of the person you were.....you were a good man, a great nephew, a great brother and son to your family, a great friend to the kids who knew you....you are hero trying to save my brother, your dad, for saving Lucas and Hannah. God had better plans for you so he called you home. Now you can silently watch over all of us. Keep the guitar strumming kiddo, Ray sent you off with pearly white picks, use them well....God be with you both, it's good to know you are together for this journey, keep us all in your hearts and prayers as we are keeping you. I love you both, I'll hold you close in my heart always Your sister and Auntie Thom:
