We gathered for a beautiful but painful celebration of Maddie’s life. Through the Mass, the release of doves, and butterflies lifted to the heavens, we honored her with love. Praying for her family during this time. With love, your Agape Family.

A Song That Never Ends
In loving memory of John Christopher “Chris” Welborn
July 23, 1971 – November 2, 2025

Now silence hums where songs once played,
Where music drifted, hearts were swayed,
A son, a father, a loyal friend,
Whose melody will never end.

From tender strings to roaring bands,
He shaped his world with gifted hands,
A rhythm deep within his soul,
Made broken hearts once more feel whole.

He spoke in chords, in laughter’s tone,
No one he met was left alone.
For every note, each song he played,
Was love in sound that never fades.

He taught his son beneath the stars
That life hums softly near and far,
From Iron Maiden’s thundering call
To whispered jazz in twilight’s fall.

Matthew carries now his flame,
The pulse of passion, music’s name,
A legacy of heart and art,
A father’s gift, his son’s new start.

And Erin, love that circled back,
Found him once more along life’s track,
Through chance, through time, through sacred signs,
Their souls entwined like faithful lines.

Though silence claims the earthly stage,
His spirit sings beyond the cage.
For those who knew his humor, grace,
Still feel his light in every place.

The amps are quiet, the curtain drawn,
Yet in each dawn his song plays on.
For love, like music, has no end.
Rest easy now, our truest friend.

A Life Built in Love and Faith
In Loving Memory of Eric Jon Manoleros
February 27, 1964 – October 16, 2025
With hands of skill and heart of grace,
He built his life, his sacred place.
Not just in stone or walls of clay,
But in the love he gave each day.
A mason’s touch, both firm and true,
He shaped the world with all he knew.
Each brick he laid, each line of art,
Reflected faith within his heart.
Through trials faced, through pain and fight,
He walked with courage, held God’s light.
And by his side, his dearest Joy,
A bond unbroken, purest joy.
Her gift of life flowed deep within,
A love so strong, no end, no end.
Though parted now, their souls entwined,
Two hearts forever intertwined.
He cheered the game, he swung the club,
He found in laughter Heaven’s hub.
And in the arms of those he’d claim,
As “PopPop,” love became his name.
A gentle soul, a faithful friend,
Whose quiet strength would never bend.
His work remains, his spirit near,
In every life he touched while here.
So when you see a wall stand tall,
Or hear a child’s bright laughter call,
Remember Eric, steadfast, kind,
A man of heart, of hand, of mind.
Now Heaven’s home holds one more light,
His soul at peace, his work done right.
For faith and love, his final art,
Are built forever...brick by heart.

In Loving Memory of Shannon Miniuk

Shannon's heart was warm, her laughter bright,
A soul who made everything feel just right.
In the kitchen, with flavors bold and new,
Her love for family and life always shone through.

With a laugh that echoed, and humor so sweet,
She made every moment a joy to greet.
A Bears fan forever, and a movie buff too,
She shared her passions in all that she'd do.

Her strength was quiet, yet strong and true,
A constant presence in all she would do.
Though she's gone, her spirit remains,
In every meal, every game, and each memory that sustains.

In Loving Memory of Vera Mills

Vera, so graceful, with a heart full of cheer,
Always glowing, year after year.
Her nails perfectly painted, her hair done just right,
She dazzled the world, a true shining light.

With a smile that could brighten the darkest of days,
She danced through life in her own special ways.
From puzzles to treasures, to stories well told,
Her spirit was vibrant, her heart pure as gold.

Now she rests, but her love stays near,
A light in our hearts, forever sincere.
Vera’s beauty, both inside and out,
Will live on in memories, without a doubt.

A heartfelt thank you to Anita & Julie for the beautiful flowers they brought me. 💐 What truly touches the heart is not something money can buy … it’s compassion, kindness, and agape love: the selfless, unconditional love that goes beyond words.

I’m deeply grateful that you trusted me with your dad’s funeral service and honored me again by entrusting me with your mom Frances’ service. Helping your family during these times has been a blessing , and your thoughtful gesture is a beautiful reminder of the strength and comfort that comes from genuine love/compassion. In times of loss, it’s this agape love, pure and giving, that brings light and healing.

Thank you both for sharing that love with me. It means more than words could say!💕

P.S. My favorite colors!!💕
