In Loving memory of James Duncan McLaughlin
May 22, 1943-Noveber 21, 2007
May the road rise to meet you,
may the wind be always at your back,
may the sun shine warm upon your face,
the rains fall soft upon your fields and, until
we meet again, may God hold you in the
palm of His hand.
Now that my everyone has opened this gift, I can post this picture of an Irish Blessing that hung on the bedroom wall of dads room "for as long as my sister can remember." She took pictures of it and had it remade as close to the original as possible and all of us have a beautiful copy that is such a blessing. McLaughlin is an Irish name. One picture is of the poem on his wall and the other is from the last set of pictures taken of him. It was at our house with his belated birthday gift and Lacey (the poodle he had gotten for me as a birthday gift three years ago). This was taken about ten days prior to the accident.
