“It hurts to let go. Sometimes it seems the harder you try to hold on to something or someone the more it wants to get away. You feel like some kind of criminal for having felt, for having wanted. For having wanted to be wanted. It confuses you, because you think that your feelings were wrong and it makes you feel so small because it's so hard to keep it inside when you let it out and it doesn't coma back. You're left so alone that you can't explain. Damn, there's nothing like that, is there? I've been there and you have too. You're nodding your head.”

I thought of you with love today But that is nothing new I thought about you yesterday And days before that too. I think of you in silence I often speak your name Now all I have are memories And your picture in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake With which I'll never part While god has you in his keeping I have you in my heart.

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Thomas Carnochan. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
