Condolence From: Steven Bongelli (Denise’s Partner)
For Denise’s family:
Letter from Heaven
To my dearest family some things I’d like to say
But first of all to let you know that I arrived today,
I’m writing this from Heaven. Here I shall 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 am 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 are 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 days 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.
1 wish that I could tell you all that God has planned
If I were to tell you, you wouldn’t understand
But one thing is for certain though my life on earth is over
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.
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 just coming here to me.

Condolence From: Denise Wamsley (daughter)
Mom always saw or found a better way of being. She never lost sight of the ability we all have, and she always believed that each of us would become the best that we are able to become. And she encouraged it. She was our energetic cheerleader and even when you completely lost your way, Mom was always there to guide you on the way back. She never ever gave up on a single person in her life, ever. It’s as simple as that. She just found the good and ignored the bad. It could be hard living up to her expectations, but as I recently read, the more people expect of us, the more they think of us. And Mom never thought anything less than the best of every person in her life. And what a legacy that is. I am a very proud daughter and know that I can say for my siblings as well, that Mom was a creator, a nurturer, and most importantly, a believer.
I miss her so very, very much.
Denise

I’m so sorry for your loss Denise. I hope that you can find some peace as you progress through the painful process of saying goodbye to a parent. In my experience, the whole journey is both raw and surprising… and goes on for as long as it needs to. Be good to yourself.
Best wishes,

Condolence From: Shelley Adams
Denise – so sorry to get this news!! I hope you are treating yourself well and keeping all the senses open to feel her presence, hear what others have to share and see what a difference she has made in all of your lives.
Much love, Shelley.

Condolence From: Chris Sadeler
Dear Denise! I am so very sorry to hear your mum passed on. I had a vague memory from some years ago when she was first diagnosed with cancer but then had lost the picture. Your obituary really paints it for me and how many people she had in her life as well as her clear aplomb for going forward when many would just have given in. My heart is heavy for you. I think losing your mother is one of the greatest tragedies and one we should never have to endure until we can be assured we managed to squeeze all the years out of the person that gave life to us. But it sounds like she was not one for counting numbers but rather for counting blessings and life moments. I hope you find some comfort in that.
Chris

Condolence From: Diane Moore
Hi Denise, Words cannot express my deepest sympathy and empathy for you, Kate and the rest of your family. After reading your mother’s obituary, I am sorry I never had a chance to meet her. What an incredible woman! I now understand where your many strengths come from. All I can say to you at this time is to hang in there. The hurt never ever leaves….but always remember that she will always be close by you…just pay attention. You may pick up the scent of her perfume, hear a favourite song….whatever triggers a memory of her – will be her way of letting you know she is close by. Diane

Condolence From: Rose & Paul Mailloux
Hello Denise; What a touching and inspiring tribute to your mom. It is amazing the strength that she had in spite of such a trying time in her life. She was blessed with a wonderful family too! It really is a shocker how ephemeral our life on this earth is. The only difference we can make is how we rise to the challenge that life brings to us and how we touch others in our daily sphere of contacts whether that be family, friends, or colleagues. She was truly an inspiration. Take care, thoughts ands prayers are with you. Rose

Condolence From: Heather Mitchell
Denise, I’m so sorry about your Mom. I remember how devastated you were when she was first diagnosed. She was a real Life-Force, impacting so many people whether they were family, friends or acquaintances. I have great memories of her personally from both before and after Kate was born. It’s a wonderful thing that she was given that extra time to, as you say, really live her life. But I know it doesn’t make it any easier to let her go. She has passed the torch on, to you among others. So grieve, but be proud of who she was and what she has done. The torch is also passing in my family. My Dad is dying of chronic lymphoma cancer, which has metastisized into his lungs, liver and stomach. The cancer was finally picked up by an MRI, much too late, two years after we’d noticed a dramatic weight loss. There is sadness and sorrow, guilt and anger, but also love, gratitude and finally peace.

Condolence From: Evelyn Vincent
