Carry On

Words to live by and celebrate the man that meant so much too so many.


You can shed tears that he is gone,
Or you can smile because he lived,
You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back, Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see him Or you can be full of the love that you shared, You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember him and only that he is gone Or you can cherish his memory and let it live on, You can cry and close your mind be empty and turn your
back,
Or you can do what he would want: smile, open your eyes,
love and go on.

Thanks from a DeSmet Parent:

Mike Sennett treated my son like a parent would want a son treated. We were there in Culver this weekend and will cherish the precious time spent with Mike. In life you meet people who change you. Mike is such a person. His faith allows him to be with God now. His love for Amber allows her to know she was loved so much that he wanted to spend a lifetime with her. His coaches know they were friends who consoled others even in the midst of their own grief. As a parent, I know how close our club is and how much the boys admired Mike and what he stands for daily. As a parent, I know of no greater thanks than to share here, at DeSmet and with those who will carry on Mike's love for others, LAX, and Jesus. Bless you all. Dave Snively
