This memorial is to remember the 228 people now feared dead after Air France Flight AF 447 from Rio
de Janeiro to Paris disappeared over the Atlantic.

Contact with the plane was lost five hours and 20 minutes after it took off from Rio in Brazil at
1900 local time (2200 GMT) on Sunday 31 May 2009.

Officials have now admitted that there was "no hope" of finding any survivors from the 216
passengers and 12 crew onboard. The passenger list is said to include 80 Brazilians, 73 French, 18
Germans, nine Italians and six Americans, Five Britons and two Irish citizens and a Canadian. Among
the passengers there were seven children and a baby). The flight also carried 12 crew members,
including the pilot and co-pilot.

Airline and government officials believe the Airbus A330-200 crashed after running into lightning
and thunderstorms over the Atlantic Ocean. French aviation officials say they may never find the
jet's flight data recorders, which could be under waters 3,700m (12,100ft) deep.

Searchers have found a plane seat, a life jacket, metallic debris and signs of fuel – spotted from
the air about 410 miles north of the Brazilian island of Fernando de Noronha, said a Brazilian Air
Force spokesman yesterday.

Unconfirmed reports in a Portuguese newspaper said passengers on board sent text messages saying "I
love you" and "I am scared" to relatives when they realised their plane was in trouble. A report in
the Jornal de Noticias cited a Brazilian official from an aviation union.

The Air France flight was full – Monday was a French bank holiday and Brazil is an increasingly
popular tourist destination among the French.

This memorial will be updated at regular intervals.

♥ღ♥ Hold My Hand In Heaven ♥ღ♥

♥ღ♥ Hold my hand in heaven show me the way,
meet me at the pearly gates
I'll see you there some sweet day.
I don't care about the riches or fame I leave below It'll all mean nothing where were gonna go.

Hold my hand in heaven,
show me the way,
how I've missed you here on earth
I have so much to say.
I'll be the one with the smile on my face,
and I'll greet you with a warm embrace.
We'll walk down the streets of gold,
and stare at the sparkling flowing streams.

Hold my hand in heaven
like I've pictured all those times in my dreams.
Nothing on this earth could possibly compare,
to all the glory you have in heaven up there.
Once I reach my destination,
and I get see your face.
All will go well,
I'll be in my final resting place ♥ღ♥

A letter from heaven

To my dearest family, some things I would like to say. But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay. I'm writing this letter from heaven. Here I dwell with God above. Here, there's no more tears of sadness. Here is just eternal love. Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight. Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night. That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through, God picked me up and hugged me and he said, " I welcome you, It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone. As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on. I need you here badly, your part of my plan. There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man." God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do. And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you. And when you lie in bed at night, the days chores put to flight. God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth, all those loving years. Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears. But do not be afraid to cry, it does relieve the pain. Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain. I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned, If I were to tell you, you would not understand. But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over. I am closer to you now, than I ever was before. There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb, But together we can do it by taking one step at a time. It was always my philosophy and I would like it for you too, That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you. If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain, Then you can say to God at night, " My day was not in vain." And now I am contented that my life was worthwhile. Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile. So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low, Just lend a hand to pick them up, as on your way you go. When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind, I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind. And when it's time for you to go from that body to be free. Remember you're not going you're coming here to me.
