In the Catholic Church, October 2nd, 2011 is recognized as the Feast of the Guardian Angels. I believe that it was more than coincidence that had this celebration fall on the same day that our family dedicated part of the new garden memorial at Misericordia to my brother, Robbie. After my brother died, my parents always told me & my sister Laura that Robbie was our personal guardian angel. When the priest mentioned what today was during the Mass, a smile appeared on all of our faces because of the special role that our guardian angel has played in all of our lives from time to time. Today was another reminder of how lucky we are to have had Robbie in our lives for 9 years and in our hears forever.
"All I ask of you is forever to remember me as loving you..."
Everything about having a brother like Robbie has made me
the person I am today, the person I will be tomorrow, and the person that I want to be.
Robbie taught our family and friends what unconditional love is.
