     In memory of Brandie Rose Marquez - When Tomorrow Starts Without Me 

 

 

When tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand that an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand. The angel said my place was ready in heaven up above and that I'd have to leave all those I dearly loved, but when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home, for God looked down, smiled at me and told me, Welcome Home. So when tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart for every time you think of me, I’m right there in your heart.

 

Rosary: Wednesday, August 21, 2024, 10:30am Cristo Rey Catholic Church

Mass:    Wednesday, August 21, 2024, 11:00am Cristo Rey Catholic Church

Burial:   Wednesday, August 21, 2024, 1:00pm Rosario Cemetery
