Legacy of Love Line Marie O''Neil Jan.16, 1963 Dec.17, 2000 Sean Gordon O''Neil May 1, 1995 Dec.17, 2000 "The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and then let it come in"... Morrie Schwartz Hi Line and Sean. I picked this quote because it captures the legacy that you both left, that of love given and love received. Line, I miss you each and every day, but I am so enriched for having had you be my partner, my friend and my wife. You gave love freely and you were a shining light to your family and friends who fondly remember your laugh and your smile. I chose to have you remembered holding Patrick to whom you provided love, guidance and encouragement. The births of your two boys were the happiest moments of your life. Patrick turned 16 this year and he is an intelligent, funny and brilliantly artistic young man. More importantly, he is gentle and compassionate and I know you would be so proud of him. Take care of Sean and give him a hug for me...I will meet you at the top of the Eiffel Tower some day. Sean, my little french-accented Leprechaun, in five short but wonderful years you gave me and everyone who knew you a lifetime of memories. Unbridled, you lived life full-tilt with the wonder and joy. You were a caped superhero, a comedian, a truck driver, a rock collector, an accomplished dancer, a teller of tall tales, Grandma''s angel, a little lady''s man and whatever you would let Patrick dress you up in when you played together. Thank you for teaching Dad that you need mice to catch catfish. I will always cherish our bedtime stories and your hugs. Dad sometimes feels sad at Christmas, then I remember the love you had for Jesus and Santa and I smile. Give Mommy a big hug and kiss from me. Hey, Patrick is taller than Dad, wow eh... Merry Christmas to you both from Dad, Mike, Patrick and all your family and friends. 0
