BEAN Jan. 11, 1969 Oct. 21, 1999 Seven years have come and Time passes and we must go Thoughts of you, T.J., will never Always remaining in my My love for you will always be strong I'll miss you Son no matter how long. All my love and prayers, Mom "TJ" Timothy James Bean Jan.

11, 1969 Oct. 21, 1999 Tragedy seems to be the world's theme today; every day you read, listen to someone else taken so abruptly, as you were on Oct. 21. So many unanswered questions left behind. No remorse, no reason why and question how this could have happened.

No more random acts of kindness, it's now random acts of death. Maybe the good Lord wanted to save you from all the heartache, sadness and helplessness that we are faced with on a daily basis. However, I still wish you were here with us today and not taken so soon. Your beautiful smile, warm heart and baby blues are never forgotten. I hear your beautiful girls are growing up and are doing you proud.

I love and miss you with all my heart and soul, Your sister, Mary In Loving Memory of Bonnie Rossi-Kiefer 10-21-41 6-8-06 Think of you each and every day. Miss you more than words can say. Love, Mary The family of Kevin P. Bodreau would like to thank the many friends and relatives for the flowers, cards, Masses, memorial gifts and acts of kindness given to us. It was deeply appreciated.
