To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

If You Could See Me Now

Our prayers have all been answered
I finally arrived.
The healing that had been delayed
Has now been realized.
No one's in a hurry, there's no schedule to keep
We're all enojoying Jeus, just sitting at His feet.

If you could see me now
I'm walking on streets of gold.
If you could see me now
I'm standing tall and whole.
If you could see me now
You'd know I'd seen His face.
If you could see me now
You'D know the pain's erased.


You wouldn't want me to ever leave this place.
If you could see me now
My light and temporary trials
Have worked out for my good.
To know it brought Him glory
When I misunderstood.
Though we've had our sorrows
They can never compare
What jeus has in store for us,
no language can share.

Michelle Salaz & Robert Linedaugh

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Always remember, NOBODY can ever take away the memories that you have of Toby. He wouldn't want you to go through life very sad. I know it is so hard to do right now but, hopefully in time you will remember this little message. Again, my deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of Tobias Guadagnoli.

Toby was like a brother to me
And he will always be in my memories
His heart was pure as gold
And he would help anyone because he was so bold
Reading the bible was one of his favorite things to do
And he loved to speak of it through and through
Toby you will be greatly missed
And in our hearts you will always exist

Toby had a gift of knowing when my heart was breaking and he would show up literally out of nowhere. It began the day of my daughters funeral almost 13 years ago. I would not be here today if not for his many gentle reminders to believe in love. I love you Toby.
