Timothy James DeRoche (Tim) was an amazing person with the natural ability to see the good in everybody and to point it out. He desperately loved his parents, his brothers, his cousins,his friends, his relatives and very notably his niece Taylor. Tim was a great student, athlete, friend and definitely son.
During the last year of Tim's life, he suffered from the rapid onset of the very challenging mental illness schizophrenia. In the end, the pressures of everyday life were too much for him and he took his own life to spare his family and himself more pain.
Tim rests in the hands of God now, his pain is over.
Don't Judge Me - by Unknown Author
Don't judge me for how I left this world,
Remember the love I gave,
A lot of grief will follow me
For the decision that I made.
Changes appear in everyone's life
Some good, some bad,
The one I chose for myself
Made everyone very sad.
But in time the memories
will heal the hurt of hearts
And my presence will be felt by all
With an inner peace.
Remember me when the sun is bright
And laughter fills the air
And a moonlit night and a whisper of wind
Will tell you I am there.
Don't look down on my family
Or fill their hearts with blame
For my leaving them without good-byes
Has left them so much pain.
If I could go back in time
I would say a last good-bye
I would tell them to look to tomorrow
And for me, please do not cry.
Who's To Blame? - by Christine Ross
Who's to blame for suicide?
The question often heard.
Someone always points a finger
And they say such hurtful words.
They never do consider that
It's caused from a disease.
Depression and Bipolar
Are just a few of these.
Some die from being murdered.
Some die from accidents.
Some die from pneumonia,
But none of it makes sense.
Sometimes body parts wear out
Way before their time.
Some lose the cancer battle,
But it all seems so unkind.
No matter how they leave us
It never is their choice.
There's something deep within them
That has a bigger voice.
So please refuse to take the blame
For the THING that took your child.
Although others point their fingers.
They haven't walked your mile.
