ANGEL MARY

Angel Mary up above,

Family and friends still feel your love. 

The vibrant smile upon your face,

A beautiful image to never erase. 

A glowing spirit like no other,

Cherished forever by your mother. 

Such selfless love you always gave,

To siblings Lisa, Jeni and Dave.

Special moments to never forget,

Priceless gifts for Kelsey and Brett. 

Many embrace your signs from Heaven, 

Each cardinal, feather and 11:11. 

Little red bird; angelic white dove,

Angel Mary, up above.

Mary Mask orders

My dear friend Leesah Marie from Caring Cardinals sent me a beautiful CC Covid-19 mask to help keep me safe.  

I took a picture and sent it to her with lots of love and gratitude.  She loved it so much she asked if she could use my picture on her Caring Cardinals website and I happily gave her permission....

Only moments after she posted my picture, she received an order for two masks from a "Mary" ❤️

Cardinals of Love and Signs from Above

CARDINALS OF LOVE AND SIGNS FROM ABOVE

In Memory of Mary Emma McCraw

Melville, New York

On March 22, 2008, a little red bird flew to my side during the darkest moment of my life – I had just received the news that my sister Mary had lost her life. I was standing outside in the breezeway of my home, lost in grief when a beautiful red cardinal landed on the shrub in front of me. He took my breath away; he was such a vibrant sight. For a moment, my pain disappeared. The very next day I flew to Texas to prepare for my beautiful sister’s wake. As I was driving down the main road to the funeral home I couldn't believe what was flying right next to me. Not one, but two beautiful red cardinals, racing me to the home. The little red bird was just the beginning to the many signs and each synchronicity that showed me that there is more after this life and there is more all around us.

A few months later, I started a blog titled Loving Mary Forever in honor of my sister Mary because she was an AMAZING light of love. Her light shined wherever she was our entire life. I was three years older and felt blessed to be viewed as her star. I loved that she often called me her Silly Sis. She loved you before she knew you – it was in her DNA. In the early stages of blogging to my Mary, amazing things started happening. Signs were EVERYWHERE. I documented each amazing occurrence one by one and my faith grew as these confirmations revealed my sister was still with me. My grief lessened and hope prevailed. My little red bird kept appearing at crazy places and special times (along with making a home in my backyard), making her appearance to me along with each fun synchronicity! I giggle just thinking about her.

I am alright today but feel sad at times when missing her physical presence, her amazing Mary smile that lit up every room she entered, and the loving energy she always radiated to everyone in her contact. Sharing my Mary's story has given so many people hope, so I will continue to cherish her memories and share her signs of love to help others heal from their loss too. Also, with a soft nudge from above, Little Red Bird Chirps was born on Facebook. It is a comforting place to visit that confirms what the little red bird is – a sign from above!

Grateful, loyal and blessed to call Mary my sister.

Loving Mary Forever

I wrote this poem a while ago but my newest friend Leesah Marie Noon, the owner of the website and FB page "Caring Cardinals" put it together with on e of her pictures here - so beautiful!  

I had to have it printed and framed.

Caring Cardinals

March is Mary month, as she left us to go to heaven in March 2008.   Mary starts showing her presence to me in the most special ways in the poignant months of the year and March is one of them.  This year she is sending a bunny rabbit.  Each morning for the past week I open my front door to a random lil bunny in the middle of my yard.  Thank you sis for forever being by my side, sending me signs and connecting me to wonderful souls.  Most recently,  Leesah Marie Noon, the author and creator of www.caringcardinals.com.

I am so grateful for her signs, they bring comfort in what could be sad times.
