I would like to know to say something similar to "rest in Peace" but more meaningful or poetic. Even if someone could translate the phrase "Say Hello To Heaven" or let me know a gaelic farewell to those we have lost!

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam (male deceased)
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam (female deceased)

This is a well established phrase in Irish. It literally means "May his / her soul be at the right of God."
Always wait for further input with my translations.

A few alternatives

Suaimhneas síoraí dó
- Eternal rest to him
Suaimhneas síoraí di - Eternal rest to her
Suaimhneas síoraí duit - Eternal rest to you

Suaimhneas síoraí dá anam uasal - Eternal rest to his noble soul
Suaimhneas síoraí dá hanam uasal - Eternal rest to her noble soul

Say hello to Heaven
Abair haló leis na flaithis

wait for confirmation
