Be open to your dreams, people. Embrace that distant shore. Because our mortal journey is over all too soon.David Assael


                                                          

He was here but just a moment
like a night time shooting star.
And though he is in Heaven
he isn't very far.

He touched the hearts of many
like only an Angel can do.
I would've held him every minute
if the end I only knew.

So I send this special message
to the Heaven up above.
Please take care of my Angel
and send him all my love

                                       


This memorial website was created to remember our son, Michael Anthony churchill who was born in  Portland Maine on August 6, 1986 and passed away on September 10, 2006 at the age of 20.  You will live forever in our memories and hearts.Love mom,dad,Amanda,and Justin

IF MICHAEL COULD READ THIS TO US ALL, HE WOULD...............

                                                       

                                                               

 


If tomorrow starts without me,
And I 'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,
All filled with tears for me:

I wish so much you wouldnt cry,
The way You did today,
While thinking of the many things,                                           

we did not get to say.

I know how much youlove me,
as much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I'll know you"ll miss me too.

But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try and understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand:

And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
and that i would have to leave behind,
All those I dearly love;

But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye:
For all my life, I alwasy thought,
I didnt want to die.

I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do:
it seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving You,

I thought of all the yesturdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I've thought of all that we have shared
And all the fun we had:

If i could relive yesturday
just even for a while,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you,
And maybe see you smile,

but than I fully realized                                                               

that this could never be,
For emptiness and memories
Would take the place of me:

And when i thought of worldly things,
i miss some tomorrow;
I thought of you and when I did
My heart was filled with sorrow:

But when I walked through heavens gates,
I felt so much at home;
When god looked down and smiled at me,
from his golden throne,

he said"this is eternity",
And all that I've promised You
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts a new.

I promise no tomorrows
but todays will always last,
And since each day is the same day,
Theres no longing for the past,

So when tomorrow starts without me,
dont think were far apart,
For every time you think of me,
i'm right here in your heart..
                                                       
                 
                                        

 

 

 

 

 

 

Special Angel in Heaven

There's a special Angel in Heaven
that is a part of me.
It is not where I wanted him
but where God wanted him to be.

 

 

 

 

Mikey loved all things.He was definitely very outgoing and had lots of friends and family who loved him.And who he, also loved back.Mike would have given his shirt off his back for anyone who ever needed it. He was involved in sports most of his school years that he attended.  He played baseball in the summer and Football in the Fall.

       He loved his art and his writeings. They meant alot to him,and they should have because they were wonderful pieces of art.  Skate boarding and biking with his friends and his brother was a must for Mike. He loved his board,and his bike. He always said it was in that time he was rideing that he was free... To always have the wind at his back was his passion.

     

 

     

               

 


                

 

 

 In the summer he had the love of water.If there was a bridge to jump off from into the water.Than Mike would have found it.And he would have talked each and everyone else into jumping as well.See I am his mom, i know, he made me jump..

  

 

Michael was very talented in many ways.He was not only artisitic as far as his drawings,writeings or his tattoo books,but he also built my bird houses  , mikes tool box,my little chair ,my blanket he made. these i shall cheerish for ever .Michael loved his family, motorcycles and his friends.They were all great kids and still are.Michael is survived by his big sister Amanda, who he loved, and he looked up to very much  and little brother Justin,who he loved and wanted for him to go far in life. Also surviving is his parents .

Michael was always one to do what he wanted to do. He had no fear ever, and wanted to live life his way. He lived life to the fullest to the best that he knew how.Michael had a heart of gold,And he will never be forgotten.

 

 

                                            

 

 

 

 

 THE BROKEN CHAIN

We little knew that morning,
that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
You did not go alone;
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories,
Your love is still our guide;
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same;
But as God call us one by one,
The chain will link again.

 

-----------------------------------------------------

 

Remembering You
We thought of you today,
But that is nothing new
We thought of you yesterday
And will tomorrow, too

We think of you in silence
And make no outward show
For what it meant to lose you
Only those who love you know
Remembering you is easy

We do it everyday
It's the heartache of losing you
That will never go away.

                                                

 

Mikey,by makeing this site it isnt to remind me of you.Because you are in my thoughts 24 hours a day.It is harder on me because I am your mom.A mom that doesnt believe you are really gone. Oh to replay those words day after day.Mom I will see youin the morning,..morning never came baby.I still wait though.as I imagine I will for a long timeI hope god can  forgive me at times for when I get very mad.I get alot of hate at times because he has you and I dont.I felt like he took you away from me and that he hurt you too.We had been seperated for a couple years.I finally got you home into my arms again when he took you.But I apologized to god.Alot.Because he did not take you.I kissed you that day in the hospital bed.I am the one who gave the okay.I told you it was okay and for you to go to god.To go to heaven where you would feel no more pain.I had no choice baby.I had and always will have faith that he will take all this away some day and I will be with you again.And all these other moms.They feel the same as I do.So I am not wrong.I am okay.I am not going crazy.Its a feeling.something people say you will get over.NO,you never get over something that has been taken from your heart.You can only love and pray that someday your time together will come again.God,I am so sorry for anything mean I said..I am just so lost and so full of pain.Please take care of my baby.and all the other parents babies out there too.For we all have two things on our mind.The first is our children,the 2nd is haveing faith in you and your love.never giving up because we are so hopeing some day we will have the happiness we have learnt that comes with heaven...

Hendrick Polanco My deepest condolences July 28, 2013
 

My deepest condolences.  May these few words from the Holy Scriptures bring you comfort in your time of grief...

John 11:32-45

32 And so Mary, when she arrived where Jesus was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled; 34 and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus gave way to tears. 36 Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!” 37 But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”

38 Hence Jesus, after groaning again within himself, came to the memorial tomb. It was, in fact, a cave, and a stone was lying against it.39 Jesus said: “TAKE the stone away.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to him: “Lord, by now he must smell, for it is four days.”40 Jesus said to her: “Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Therefore they took the stone away. Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.” 43 And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!” 44The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth. Jesus said to them: “Loose him and let him go.”

45 Therefore many of the Jews that had come to Mary and that beheld what he did put faith in him;
