Marco Rest In Peace Love…

marco - chi cheng

i can not even begin to tell you how much it deeply saddens me to let you know our brother marco passed on wednesday morning. his heart and lungs gave in. i spoke with patricia on the phone tonight (she is an amazing woman) and she is trying to be strong… but i can’t even begin to imagine… let’s all please send patricia and her family our love, prayers, strength and support.

patricia… like i told you on the phone… i wish i had the words that would ease you and your family’s pain and make everything just OK… but there are no words… only love.. and that i give to you and your family along with prayers.

your “one love for chi” family is here for you and your family… the chengs, myself and the whole community here will be keeping you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. we are here for you if you need us… just give us the word.

marco - chi cheng
May you find strength in the love of family…
and in the warm embrace of friends…

Deepest Sympathy…

one love for chi & marco,
gina

  4. Dearest Patricia, Words fail. Our hearts hurt for you and the brothers, cousins and family. Your pain is our pain…we have been where you are and it will never be the same. Please just remember that you will see him again and when you do he will be well and happy. You haven’t lost him forever. Try to remember before the accident and know that he is at peace and would want you to hold on to the precious happy times that you shared. Our love and prayers are with you all. You are dear to us and I wish we were there to hold you up in some small way. Please know that you are family to us and we are there if there is anything that we can do for you. Grief is so hard. That will get a little easier as time goes by. Cry when you need to with someone. Be strong when you need to for your kids. Go through the motions every day until it is a little easier. Laugh when you can. The loves in our life are only on loan to us for awhile. I know that you were a wonderful sis to Marco. Try to find peace in the memories. We love you sweet girl. Jeanne

  5. It breaks my heart to hear that Marco is no longer with us. I am sitting here, trying to think of what to write… Nothing comes out. Only a thought in my head about the ever-present angels of mercy and love guiding Marco across the void to a better place.

    Rest easy, Marco.

  6. my condolances.. so sorry to hear. I wish you all the strength to get through this.

  7. My very deepest sympathies and strongest prayers to Marco, Patricia and your entire family, from my family to yours. We are all here for you like Gina said.

    OneLoveForMarco,
    Matt

  8. when there are no words… know that the silences are carrying the thoughts and prayers of all who love you.

    Patricia,
    I am so sad to hear that Marco passed. As I sit here with tears in my eyes & heart I can honestly tell you I know how it feels to lose your brother and it hurts so bad. It is unimaginably painful, I know. Celebrate Marco’s life and try not to dwell in all of the bad memories from this tragedy. Remember all the good times with him. I can see from his picture he was a beautiful soul. Know that he is just fine and always will be. We are the ones who suffer when we lose our loved ones. Though he may not be here physically you will always carry him with you and he will never leave you. Apparently the creator thought that Marco’s lessons in this life were finished and, as heartbreaking as it is, it was time to give him back. When you are up to it please check out this site. It is what gets me through each day without my brother. It isn’t religious and neither am I. I believe that we are all just spiritual beings having a human experience and many of these experiences break our hearts. We will never know joy if we haven’t experienced suffering. Please try to dwell in the joy that Marco brought into your life and don’t regret a thing. Little fights or silly things we say to each other and don’t mean are minute compared to the love you have for Marco, so, no guilt either. Just love. Only love. It is the glue in our relationships (and you know how sticky glue is)!

    My love to you and your family and Marco. I’ll be thinking of you girl. Keep your head up. Don’t worry about being strong. Take the time to weep. Get pissed off. Whatever it takes allow the process to happen. Grief is your best friend right now. It will get you through until you see better days.
    Your sister in peace sending you a piece of my heart,
    RC

    • Hey RC,
      I just want to say that your post caught my attention. After I posted (see below) I was scrolling up and saw that you wrote virtually the same thing I did. I agree with every word you stated and I want to tell you that no time can truly heal the pain and that I am thinking of you also. I am going to see the website you reccommended as well. I believe that although I am doing “well” with my situation, I can always use reassurance and strength. You are very correct that when someone is lost to us, we grieve for ourselves, mistakenly using the “it’s not fair” and “he was so young” and all those other things, when what we mean or should say is “I am sad for myself” because that is the reality. To have 5 children and know that he never met 4 of them, to know he never saw my wedding to the man he picked for me so long ago, he will never grace a stage with his beauty and talent, those things all hurt.
      Nothing will really make it better, but there are “tricks” to get by. We must listen to each other, those who are and have been going through it. We are the only key to how to manage and still we are all individuals and can’t really give each other the key. But I am happy to see that both you and I have given the same advice. This will at least show that what we are both saying is at least true for us and hopefully Patricia will benefit from knowing that she is not alone.
      Best wishes and thanks so much for sharing.

      • Bonnie,
        So good to know that people are finally realizing the true process of life & its cycles. Thanks so much for giving me a piece of your heart.
        Love,
        RC

  11. Sending you all my love, Patricia, and I’m so sorry for your loss. We are all there for you to lean on when you’re ready, and as words feel insufficient – know that we will be there for you, always.

  12. Patricia,

    I have been following all the updates on your brother since you first contacted this site. I am very sorry for you and your family and I can imagine what you are going through. I have also lost my brother. It was 5 years ago, but remains fresh in my heart. I do not, however, know the feeling of waiting that you have endured, not knowing from day to day when or if he would awaken.
    All I can say is that believe it of not, this initial heartache you have will begin to ease and pass and you will be left with wonderful memories and will again be able to look back and laugh, although now it may cause guilt to do so. You will never laugh at this incident, don’t mistake me, you will laugh at his smiles, the words you two made up, the times you lied together and the little secrets you had. They are now yours to keep forever, and he will be beside you always. Just remember that energy never dies and just because he has now a different form does not mean that he no longer exists. He is still as alive as your mind and heart will keep him and you will meet again one day, certainly. He will be waiting for you and when you get there, he will be the one to guide you now. He will be the more experienced and it will be his turn to show you the way to be.
    You can get through this, support your mother, she will need you now more than ever, and remember to take your own time to grieve. It is easier to turn it off and handle the necessities right now, just remember to go back and let it hurt when the time is right, or it will be there forever.
    Much love and strength. I will be thinking of you for a long time. Miss him, remember him, and tell his story. This is how he will live forever.

    BonnieBB.

  13. this is a sad day. i cannot find words that express how sorry i am, nor words to even touch on the grief you must be experiencing. i have a sister and this bond is truly one of the greatest in this universe. something like this rips, tears and shreds your soul, but, even though now you probably feel like it, you are not left with nothing, all the good, even all the bad, but all the good especially you carry it with you, forever til that day when you yourself are one with the universe, and with marco again. until then he lives on, every day, every moment, in your heart, in your memories, in your pictures, and prayers, and the faces and words of your family, us here included, for you are not a stranger to us. he will always be with you and with us. i’m deeply sorry for your loss.

    rest in peace brother marco

    one love

    Dearest Patricia and family.
    My heart is so sad for the pain you are feeling. Marco’s picture shows him to be so dear, and I know you will miss him so much.
    Honey, I don’t even know what to say, except please be gentle with yourself and with each other. Take care of each other. Grieving is hard, so hard, and there is no way around it, just through it. In reading the other posts, I see a lot of wisdom. We will be here for you, still praying for all of you. I truly feel as though you are part of our family now, and I hope we can help in some way.
    One love. Aunt Mary

  17. I just wanted to stop in and thank each and every one of you for your beautiful words, thoughts & prayers for our family during this difficult time. I must tell you all that with as painful as this has been, it has also been a relief to know that my precious little brother is no longer suffering. I know he is safe, and all is well for him now, thank God. He put up such a valiant fight, and has definitely earned his wings. I do know that we cry now for “our” loss, not his. He is at peace, and moved on to a much better place, where I know he will wait for us, and in the meantime, watch over us.
    Maybe things will start to get better for our brother Chi now that he’s got another angel on his side. I know, without a doubt, that my little brother will be keeping an eye on Chi, and standing in his corner, giving him strength and helping him fight the good fight for sure.
    God, I cannot thank all of you enough for your love and support. What beautiful people were brought into my life through this tragedy. It is so true when they say with every door that closes another opens, that with every negative there is a positive.
    To the Cheng family: thank you so much for all of the love. I continue to pray for your Chi, and will never stop. Thank you for the support, and for opening your hearts during this difficult time for both of our families. It has meant so much more than you will ever know, and we are here for you all should you need anything.
    Gina: Pls email. Haven’t heard from you since ur txt on saturday. Hope you are well, dear friend.

    MUCH/ONE LOVE FOR CHI

  18. This saddens me so much, but as Patricia said, when one door closes, another door opens…

    praying hard for the soul of Marco

    and For our brother Chi, to get well.

    RIP…. MARCO..
