Thank you so much for your post regarding the symbolism of the Cardinal bird. I was always taught that to see a red cardinal bird was very significant. It meant good fortune and blessings. I taught this to my children and it became very significant to my son. My son committed suicide on February 12, 2009 due to the challenges of bipolar disorder. He is at peace now I believe. He has been set free from hell on earth.

We had a beautifully regal red crested cardinal embroidered to the inside of his casket. With the words "God Remembered". You see when my son was himself and not tormented in his mind. He was naturally energetic, loved life and happily helped other where/when he could. There are many who grieve the loss of him and remeber him in that way. It is comforting to know that God Rembered, too.

I am terribly sorry for your loss and can empathize with your feelings of him being set free. Your understanding of that is true strength, as death is always toughest for the ones left behind.

Thank you so much for sharing, Mrs. Stevenson. I truly hope you come back to visit.
