Thank you all for your condolences. I really miss my father and my mother terribly, but the memories are there and will be cherished.
The priest who did the service mentioned about the ship at sea getting smaller and smaller and disappearing, but never really gone because they are on the other side that you can't see. We will be on that other side someday as well.

It may not be seen anymore but it is there. However, it is still a tragic loss for the ones who remain behind and I can feel your loss. May God bless and keep you and family and one day we will all be together on "the other side" in the company of our Lord....Ray Souza --- On Fri, 3/6/09, jojo8...@comcast.net <jojo8...@comcast.net> wrote: From: jojo8...@comcast.net <jojo8...@comcast.net> Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Obit for Anthony de Sousa Furtado To: Azores@googlegroups.com Date: Friday, March 6, 2009, 6:52 PM Linda My sympathy to you and your family.

Hermano _____ From: patli...@verizon.net To: Azores@googlegroups.com Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Obit for Anthony de Sousa Furtado Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2009 00:11:26 -0500 My dad passed away Tuesday, March 3 from Congestive Heart Failure and CA. It was a long battle for him, but he is at peace now and with my mom. The turnout at the viewing was incredible with cousins that I haven't seen in years. There were Cabrals, Furtados, Pachecos, Raposos, Coelhos, Janieros, Oliveras, Medeiros, de Couto, Borges and Tavares. He was well loved and adored. He will be truly missed.
