Here are some of the remarkable memorials created on LifePosts in November. They’re each different — each capturing the personality of those who have passed and those who love them.
Richard “Gorilla” Osborne
Dozens of former students posted memories about Richard “Gorilla” Osborne, a beloved Case-Western professor. My favorite part was in LifeQs, where students reveal the nicknames that Gorilla gave them. (“Beaker”?)
Greg Brooks
“Greg was one special person. He had been a volunteer at our facility as long as we can remember. He would come into the adoption center and spread his blanket on the floor then you could see all cats flowing to him for affection. ”
Zheng Song
A beautiful LifePost — alternating between English and Mandarin — captures the personality and life of Zheng Song.
Kathleen Elizabeth Beaver
Q: What did Kathleen dislike?
A: Mayonaise, coconut and bad drivers.
Ronne Bruce Roope
“Don Quixote was Ron’s archetype. His home was filled with art and statues of the “Don”. Cervantes said, “The man who fights for his ideals is the man who is alive.” That sums Ronne up pretty well.”
Brittany Palmer
“Say not in grief that she is no more but say in thankfulness that she was”
Dora Ann McLellan
“One of her proudest moments was when her children’s book, “Stevie Star, the Star Who Could Not Shine” was published. The book taught children about finding their purpose, serving others and that courage came when you needed it most.”
Grant Vincent White
“Grant enjoyed his many adventures ranging from camping, panning for gold, flea markets, caring for horses, raising boxers, to meeting new friends.”
Eleanor Jean Carr
“Jean chose not to have a funeral or services of any sort. She never wanted anyone to fuss over her. ”
Michael Crowley
“On August 8th, 1995, a miracle happened. My dad received a young and healthy 19 year old heart. Our family overcame a big obstacle. We always joked my heart was the same age as his heart. He was reborn and his love for his family was stronger than ever.”
Bridgitte Brown
“Our beautiful Bridgitte Brown, 53, passed away peacefully November 6, 2016, with the love of her life, Gary Hess, by her side…The career she was most proud of was with Valley Cities Behavioral Health Care..strengthening communities through the delivery of holistic, integrated behavior health services that promote hope, recovery and improved quality of life.”
Happy Birthday Alfred Sanchez
I just want to wish my brother a Happy Birthday and let him know I miss him very much. And that Life just isn’t the same without him.
Eva Mae Charlton
Joshua Alan Babcock
Hundreds of photos displayed in the LifeTimeline.
Paris Christina Nasser
Charles Brian Thompson
“I will always remember listening to you and my dad talking about the Cowboys or how we would all criticize every pizza place that wasn’t Romeo’s.”
Mary Hamilton
Terry Lyle Curtis
William “Steve” Dittman
“After working in the air condition business for several years, began working on his dream of owning his own company…. He went on to purchase and become the owner/operator of AAA Air Conditioning and Appliance Service in Tampa for 19 years. As time allowed outside the business, Steve pursued his other passion, fishing for bass.”
