Memorial candle quotes

Hello ladies. I am looking for a thoughtful an respectful quote to put on my memorial candle. We have 6 names to put on it so we don't want anything too long. Any suggestions? TIA!

'We know you would be here today...
If heaven wasn't so far away...'

I've seen that on Pinterest a lot!

Memorial candle quotes

The one I'm using is really long. I know you don't want long but I figured I'd share...

I thought of you today
But that's nothing new
I thought about you yesterday
And the days before that too
I think of you in silence
I often speak your name
All I have are memories
And a picture in a frame
Your memory is a keepsake
From which I'll never part
God has you in his arms
But I have you in my heart

Re: Memorial candle quotes

I used this. I also put a picture in. I did it as a DIY candle. It was a lot cheaper.

Although we can't see you
We know you are here
Smiling Down
Watching over us
As we say 'I Do'
Forever in our hearts
Forever in our lives
And so we say our vows
In loving memory of you


It wouldn't let me add the picture but I have it in my album.

It came out great! How did you DIY/make it? I would prefer to do this as well instead of purchasing one.

I purchased a vase at Michael's along with Vellum paper. I printed the poem on the vellum paper using my regular printer at home then used a double stick tape that's made for vellum paper to hold it together once I wrapped it around the vase. Then I bought the self stick decals you see on the top and bottom. I actually got a candle from the dollar store that fit inside. I only had one person so I put the name right on that candle and had a picture (I can post a pic of the setup I had of it too) but what a friend of mine did was get small votive candle holders, printed each of the names on vellumm paper, then fit them to the votive candles. She had one votive candle for each person around a larger candle. I think the whole thing cost me $15 if that to make.

I hope I made sense as to how I did it. If not let me know and I'll try to explain it better in FM.


Grrr...the pic didn't post again. It's in my album too.
