The obituary notice of Peter KAMINSKI

Happy St; Peter's Day

“Stick’it in d’a gul’adins” my brother would say, he’s Down Syndrome you know, he smiles everyday!

He gave me such precious hugs, it made the pain fall away!

The summers warm and long the winters short and full of fun. He brought me joy, laughter and sometimes tires; “Stick’it in d’a gul’adins” my brother would say!

My Peter would make up such wonderful words to bring a slime to my face, to be part of his world.

Every moment of every day my brother was near me, safe and sound by my side. We will “stick together like glue for the whole of eternity”.

“Stick’it in d’a gul’adins” my brother would say!

I love you Peter

500 days alone, the house is quiet like a memory, every room speaks your name, your footsteps in the hallway but nothing feels the same, you’re ‘book books’ are on the table, photos slowly fade away, I walk through memories dark and deep were broken brother’s fall and weep, every step along the way until God opens up his door, to see your wonderful smile, to be with you forevermore then I won’t hurt anymore.

I remember the prayers by your bedside, the hurt inside like never before, I held the hand of an angel, and every tear I tried to hide; Jesus wrote your name in stone, you’re going home, heaven was your home all along, this goodbye is not the end, it’s were forever begins!

I leave a light on by the window to show my love for you is here, you whisper in the wind ‘you’re not alone’ that’s my brother my friend!

God bless you Peter and keep you safe no matter how far you are your never alone. May you stand among angels with Mum and Yvonne. I love you Peter and I give you my love forever and ever more.

Peter, you went ahead and left me in this empty house; in every room I feel you near me. I see the ghosts of memories that no-one else can see. My hand shakes when I enter your silent room but for the ticking of your clock; same little cupboard, same pictures on the wall. I feel the years of happiness, wonderful smiles and terrible pain when I lost you with a river of tears that only God can understands. It brakes’ my heart that I can never hug you again! I miss you my dear little brother, I pray that when I go to heaven you will find me, until then I will stand here forever to say your name.

Until then, God care for you and bless you Peter.
