No day has been the same since you left. I love and miss you so much. I miss your smile, your laugh, your hugs, you 5 minute cell phone messages, your music, and hearing you say "night mom, I love you." You brought so much to my life. I cherish the time we had together, I just wish it could have been forever. Please watch over your brother, and remember you truly are...my angel. I love you....

Mom

Paul, I miss you so much I try so hard to get on with my life, but without you not in it, is hard, Not only did I lose you, I lost your children. One day I will be with you again. I love you more than life itself.

Your Mother,
Evelyn

I love and miss you more than a heart can hold,
Until we meet again my baby Angel, you are in God's fold!
I look at the sky and gaze at the star's every nite,
I look for that sparkle in your eye's when you were in my site!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Love You Alway's & Forever!

I know I am selfish to want you here with me. You give me so many signs that you are taking care of Daddy and me, but baby, we were supposed to take care of you. It is so hard not hearing your laughter, your signing, your incredible voice, not feeling those wonderful kisses, those comforting hugs. As the sun shines on me while I am writing this and my tears become rainbows, I know you will be there to welcome me when it is my time. Jess how could it have been you time at only fourteen? I am sorry baby, mommy just doesn’t understand and I miss you more then words can say. Look into my heart and you know how much you are and were always loved.

It has been just a litttle over 6 months since you left us. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you, talk about you, look at your pictures and try to figure out why you had to leave us. I know you were fighting a tough battle but I just don't understand why we couldn't fight it together. I don't understand why you gave up? I just hope and pray that you finally found the peace you were searching so hard for. I hope you are finally happy.
We love you so much and miss you every second of every day. Cody and Josh miss you so much. They miss having their big sister boss them around. They would give anything for you to boss them around like you used to.
I will see you again someday my sweet baby girl. In the meantime please be happy and be finally at peace.
I love you my angel,
Mommy

I miss you so much. I pray you will send me signs because I miss you so much that I do not know what to do anymore. I tried to be with you but God doesn't want me yet. I know you could not take the pain anymore. I am so sorry for what you had to endure. I tried to get you here with us but no one would listen, even though they could see your pain, my baby. I love you and you will always be a part of me. I know you are with my momma.

You couldn't have guessed the havoc you put upon your whole family. I know you wouldn't have wanted this to happen in the wake of your death but it has. Everyone is passing the blame around plus none of us seems to know the "why". We all love you each in our own way and wish we could get you back but as you know death is final and the only way we can have you back is when we notice a goose or duck flying, a deer runs across the road, or we see a homeless person who may be hungry, or a song is played that you liked. Jay, you will probably will be seeing your dog, Spike, up there soon as he isn't a bit well and has cancer. He will help take care of you, we know. Jay, we miss you terribly.

I miss you and think of you everyday. I wish you were still here to see how much Chasity has grown. She has your eyes. She is a pistol too. I felt your presence the other morning while leaving for work. Mike and I miss you and talk about you often. I know you did not want to hurt us and could not go on any longer but I wish I could have known that morning how low you were. I wish I could have stopped you. You had such a hard life but you lived harder in your short 20 years than I have in my lifetime. I love you, I miss you and you will always be in my heart. May you now have the peace you were looking for and I pray you found Ann and are watching Chasity grow. Thank you for the 20 years I did have you in my life and I will be forever thinking of you and Ann.

Missing and loving you forever
Mom

How I miss you . The pain is so Unbearable without you. I miss your music, your noise. I would love to see you one more time to hold you and tell you how much I love you.

Afterglow

I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one
I'd like to leave an afterglow
of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing
times and bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who
grieve, to dry before the sun
Of happy memories that I leave
When life is done.

Dearest Lauren, this is what I am trying to do. I love you and miss you always.

Love,
Mom

I miss you everyday and it hurts me that you never came back for me. Mommies are not supposed to leave their children. I never found out why you left me. I always thought I was a bad girl but now I grew up and now I know you had a problem and you were very sad. I'm sorry Mommy that you were so sad that you had to leave.

When you left Mommy, you left me too. And it was hard to grow up and be like other kids b/c I always knew I was different than all the other kids. And you never got to see my kids Mommy.

They are grown and gone now too Mommy and I am alone once again...it seems I have been alone all my life. It hurts to be lonely and think of you Mommy. Do you miss me Mommy? Did you watch me grow up?

I look for signs but I never see any. But sissy is doing really good Mommy and I know you are really proud of her. I am too. Remember when you left Mommy, I was still young and you had not had time to show me how to do things so I taught myself how to do them.

I learned how to sew and to can fruits and to use a computer. I remember your big stews and dumplings Mommy, you were the best cook in the world. I learned how to make dumplings too.
I remember the big puffy loaves of bread you used to make and your cinnamon buns.

I remember how hard you worked in the house for the family Mommy and it was a hard life for you. I am sick like you were Mommy, I have had lots of operations but now I am getting stronger and can walk more now Mommy. I don't have to use my wheelchair all the time anymore.

Mommy I am going to tuck you into my heart and never let you go. I remember skipping when I was a little girl and I am skipping right now remembering you. I know you loved me Mommy, I can feel it in my heart now. Have a nice Valentines day with Daddy and Sherry and Ricky.

Mommy, I must be really strong because you and Sherry and Ricky all left me the same way. That was awful Mommy, but I think you were all in alot of pain. They say God won't let you go thru more than you can handle so I guess I am strong enough to go thru this Mommy. I just miss you Mommy and I cant wait to see you again.

Love Forever,
