Performed by Fleetwood Mac If you wake up and don't want to smile If it takes just a little while Open your eyes and look at the day You'll see things in a different way Don't stop thinking about tomorrow Don't stop, it'll soon be here It'll be better than before Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone Why not think about times to come And not about the things that you've done If your life was bad to you Just think what tomorrow will do Don't stop thinking about tomorrow Don't stop, it'll soon be here It'll be better than before Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone All I want is to see you smile If it takes just a little while I know inside that it's very true all the love in the world is meant for you Don't stop thinking about tomorrow Don't stop, it'll soon be here It'll be better than before Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone Don't you look back Don't you look back  and that one day there will be no more tears and sadness. We love you more than all the stars in the sky! Love, Mom, Dad, Patrick and Candice      Thank you for sharing these nine years with us for your laughter, sense of humor and sense of fun for your being a peace maker, and a courageous boy for appreciating each little joy along the way We'll never know why your life had to be so short but while you were here your brought sunshine and gentleness and joy you gave lots of warm hugs and understanding A deep void is here in our lives A place that only your heart could ever fill perhaps you're still here, only invisible ever-present, with your loving grin and sparkling eyes still bringing smiles and comfort to your cherished family and friends We love and miss you Thomas and hope you know that we send you love every minute of every day and night since you had to go. Your loving family... Mom, Dad, Patrick and Candice        since he was 2 or 3 years old! One special video game that Tom was playing with his brother, Patrick, even on the day he suddenly died, was Zelda, Ocarina of Time. Thomas has the image of a computer etched on the headstone of his grave. Tom died at the age of 9, after finishing grade 3.             when he was still 2 years old! Tom loved Sonic the Hedgehog, Zelda video games, and Pokemon cards. He loved the humor of Garfield books; he would read them at night before bed to fall asleep. He loved Charlie Brown and Snoopy videos. He was an innocent, loving boy to us, his parents and to his brother, Patrick and his sister, Candice.      and going to Maine to visit his grandparents. (We live in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.) Thomas was friendly to everyone at school, and was loved by teachers, principals and students alike. He had the endearing qualities of enthusiasm, empathy, joy of learning, innocence, and a wonderful sense of humor.       of August 7, on a beautiful summer night, Thomas had a sudden, acute, irreversible asthma attack. Despite all emergency help and medication he died that night, to our deep grief and despair. It is called "sudden asthma death" and is rare, but happened to our beautiful son. He was greeted by Jesus and the angels and is now enjoying the bliss, eternal love and joy of heaven. We miss his beautiful brown eyes, his loving smile, his thoughtful ways and his irreplaceable presence in our life. We send him all our love and want him to know how very much we miss him in our lives.         I remember when Thomas was born An angel was brought to us that day, You could tell by his actions And the words he chose to say. He always cheered you up Whenever you felt down, And you got this instant smile Every time he was around. God was running short of Angels And just could not get by, Thomas was the Angel he needed and with his wings he soared into the sky. Even though he is not with us physically His soul is not very far, Whenever we want to see him We just have to look up at the brightest shining star. Thomas never left anyone out He always had enough love to share, And he wants us to know he is safe In the arms of God up there. Love, Amanda (Thomas' cousin)    I love you and hope you're having a good time in heaven. I miss you so much and love all the memories we have together. love, Candice  I hope you have a good time wherever you are, now that you've turned into a bright star. I hope that we can meet again, but until then I love you old friend. Love, Patrick    is very special to Thomas and his family. The song was one of Tom's favorites at the choir. They sang it with special hand motions that went along with the song. As a member of St. Thomas More school choir he loved to sing with the other children on all the special occasions. I think the first time we saw him sing it was with all the other kids in his class as they celebrated their First Communion in 2001. We have it videotaped and it is beautiful. He looked so cute and handsome in his suit!      Dear Bernadette and ANGEL Thomas Mom, I am your ANGEL That now lives up above Mom I haven't left you Every day I send you my love I know you can't see me And that really hurts you But I am with you every day So please don't feel down and blue One day we will all be together But you must not keep asking Just like me I had done my time Only GOD knows And in HIM you must believe I LOVE YOU, MOM!
