Love you, love you, love you. Miss you, miss you, miss you. I can think of many eloquent & appropriate things to say, but from my heart the truest thought is keep taking care of everyone as you so beautifully do. You did it before and you are doing it now. My sister & brother miss you so much and have been strong to honor you. Keep them close, hug them gently, and kiss them with the spirit of you.

Just forever on my mind, in my thoughts and my conversations with God. It was two years in June, but your smile, the sound of your voice when you would say "hi Mom," never fades. So often I feel your presence and your spirit around me. Others have felt you too, in your own angelic ways. Missing you and loving you, "Our Angel." "Mom, XOXOXO."

Today, April 24, 2011, is Easter Sunday, and the birthday of "Our Sweet Angel," Colleen Alisa. She would have been 46 years young. We, her Mom, Dad, siblings, nieces and nephews, came together for dinner, love and really good memories. The spirit of her was ever present, and has been quite strongly for the past few days. Many friends are thinking of her today, and often. Not a day goes by, that I don't think, talk to, or just plain miss my sweet daughter. God has his arms around you, "My Sweet Angel." Loving and missing you. "MOM."

No where in my memory bank of 66 years, do I have a recollection of time passing exactly as it is. We usually determine that a period of time has gone by so fast, or went by very slowly. For the first time in my life, a year seemed like a year. However, the exception during that time, was the daily thought of our Angel, the void of her physical presence. It is now, about 10:50 PM. At exactly 11:00 PM, a year ago, our Sweet Angel received her wings. All day, I have thought of my prayer to God, at 6:00 AM on this day a year ago. I asked God, "if it be Your will to take my Colleen Alisa, take her on this day. For each new birthday You bless me with from here on, I will celebrate another year blessed by You, and re-celebrate my daughter's life." That prayer was answered. I, we, miss her presence, but we know that in memory, our hearts, thoughts, and our prayers, in spirit our Sweet Angel is with us. Often, she has made it known. It is now 11:00 PM. Two minutes have now passed. I had to stop, pause in recollection, and say a prayer while holding Colleen's Dad's hand. We love and miss "Our Sweet Angel." XOXOXO, Mom and Dad, XOXOXO

Colleen was the most beautiful person I have ever met in my life. I was and still am blessed to know her. Her friendship and spirit will always be a part of my life. She always remember others and all had a encouraging word to share. I wish I was there before she had to go but I will look forward to seeing here again. Always love you Colleen! Your friend,

April 24, 2010
On this day, 45 years ago, I was admitted to Community Hospital in Battle Creek, awaiting the birth of our third child. In those days, there was no way to determine if you were giving birth to a boy or a girl. We knew. I had asked God for a girl the first time, for very good reasons. My prayers were answered. I prayed that we be blessed with a son the second time. My prayers were granted. It only made sense to have another girl. I had only been in hospital long enough to change from my street clothes, to a gown, get as comfortable on a bed as possible, while my husband was still getting me admitted. After a few minutes, less than ten, I asked the nurse to help me. Her response, "you have plenty of time Mrs. Jones, Dr. Melges will be here shortly." This was my third child, I knew what I was feeling. "Either you help me, or I will do this myself." About two minutes later, I was giving birth to our daughter. Doctor came through the door to help, handed my darling baby to the nurse, then placed her in my arms about ten minutes later, after weighing her, etc. At 10:21 AM, on this day, April 24, 1965, I gave birth to Colleen Alisa Jones, "Lisa," 7 pounds, 9 3/4 ounces. She met her Dad a few minutes later. It was National Baby Week. We were presented with an official certificate to commemorate this day, sponsored by the Carnation Company. In those days, parents received a certificate of birth from the hospital. We were so proud of our blessed little bundle. She came into this world, not in the usual birthing method used in the sixties, but made her entrance her way, quickly, and on her own. Lisa's Dad and I knew then, and expressed it to each other, that she would make her mark, and accomplish so much. There was just something about her, that made us believe that she would touch so many. She did. Thoughts of you, my beautiful Angel will fill this day. A visit to Memorial Park, looking at pictures, and sharing happy memories with laughter, smiles, and of course some tears. I miss my Sweet Angel, and so thankful and so grateful and so proud, that God blessed us with you. Continued peaceful rest. A mother's love in the deepest places of my being. XOXOXO

My Sweet Angel, It looks like your family are all thinking of you. It's a given, but some of us decide to write. You are thought of, and or talked about each and every day. This week for me has been a real challenge. I have been looking through hundreds of pictures. We as a family shared so many good times, and the happiest of memories. I look at pictures of you, sometimes I cry, and an awful lot of smiles. This time last year, you were doing one of the things that you did best, event planning. This was for your birthday party. It was a blessing. You were, are a blessing, your spirit still is. At this time, 45 years ago, you were as close to me as a child can be to a mother, you were not yet born. Sweet Angel, you still are very close to me, in my heart and in my soul. Always, XOXOXO.

It's almost your birthday/April 24th. I miss you most when I go shopping. It never mattered if it was groceries or clothes...it was fun being with you. I have thought about you every single day and I had the pleasure of seeing you in my dreams twice. They were both new memories and I loved it. The last one was on the night of New Year's Day 2010. You helped me with my New Year's Resolution and I am determined to keep it. You were and always will be an inspiration to me. You set the tone for the way I live my life. I keep your picture and cards of encouraging words in my office at work and just know that you make me a better person every day. You really do. I will visit this site again on 4/24/10.

My condolences to the Jones family. I was very saddened to hear of your loss, although I hadnt seen Lisa since high school( i moved away shortly after graduation) she was one of those people you would never forget, just a beautiful person overall, I cannot begin to imagine the suffering, if any she may have gone through with her battle with the cancer, but i to was diagnosed with renal (kidney) failure about a year ago so i do know that every day is a blessing... God bless you all, you are in my prayers
September 14, 2009
Just some private thoughts to one of God's newest Angels. You are thought of each and every day. You are missed. It is a comfort knowing you are watching over us. Forever in my heart. XOXOXO

Today is September 04. In two days, it will be three months ago, that heaven received another "Angel." Another holiday weekend is approaching without "Our Angel." We didn't need a holiday to get together, or to call each other. Staying in touch is a "normal" occurance for our family. Greeting each other with hugs and kisses, or a phone call that "always" ended with "I LOVE YOU," is as natural as breathing. I thank God for countless wonderful memories to share and talk about, and for enough pictures amongst us all, to stretch across the Mackinaw Bridge, side by side. Not a single day goes by without thoughts of Colleen, talking about her, looking at her picture, or sharing something with her in our own special way. Sometimes, it is all of the aforementioned. There is a physical void, but spiritually, the emotional connection, and in our prayers and hearts, those places remain running over with our forever love for "Our Angel," Colleen Alisa. (Lisa) She hovers over us all. This is just another one of those "thoughtful times," that I, wanted to share.

I am very sorry to hear of Lisa's passing. I send you my deepest condolences. While I knew Charlotte and DJ better, I do remember Lisa as someone who could light up a room with her very presence. Cherish all the memories you have with her and know that she will always be a part of you.

Mom & Dad Jones,
I am so sorry that it has taken so long to reach out to you. With Lisa's passing, I feel like I should have done better to keep in touch. You all are in our prayers, even though we are so far apart. Please know that if there is anything you need or anything we can do to help you though, we are here for you.
Much love,

I was so sorry to hear of 'Lisa's passing. I will always remember her as a vibrant and vivacious young lady. Until now I wasn't aware that Lisa and I shared a common passion. Writing. When I last saw her, which was around 2003, she told me she preferred going by her first name, Colleen. I just had to smile to myself when I thought of that meeting because to me she will always be 'Lisa.' One who was blessed by God with a beautiful soul. Inspiring smile. And endearing spirit! That will live on forever.

Dearest Judi and Family,
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why precious Colleen left this earth so soon, or why she left before you were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, begin to remember not just that she died, but that she lived. And that her precious life gave us all memories too beautiful to forget.
We all have an angel watching over us...May God continue to saturate you in HIS peace during this tulmultous time...my thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Dearest Friends in Christ, My Judi, Vel, and kids.
I just received your email Judi, I cannot express how sorry I am for having to go through this. I remember all the times Colleen and Chris came over to swim in the pool. She hated getting her hair wet. She'd always wear a bathingcap. Those were fantastic days. I'm so glad that our families got to know each other. You were my best friend, and still are, Judi. Time nor distance can ever diminish our bond. Colleen will have many friends waiting, one of them being Gary, as she comes to the Father's throne. Can you imagine that scene? Generations of God's people greeting her. Colleen will always be in your heart and just a heartbeat away. You have an advocate to the King's heart. May you take comfort in knowing her life was well lived as she leaves a void in the Jones family. Please know my prayers and thoughts are with you, as are my family's, Heidi, Eric, and Gary.
Judi, I hope you remember June 6 not only as your birthday but as the beginning of Colleen's new life. May God grant you grace and acceptance of his will for you and yours.
Love always,
Your friend in Christ,
Rox

I wish all comfort and strength from the most high, and I pray that you can see the brighter light that comes from the memories that we all had of little Lisa.

To the Jones Family,
At this time of sadness may you find peace in knowing that god has Blessed you with the love of Lisa. I look back on school at Lincoln and I see her smile. When I think of Central I see her smile. And yes as I have run into her when I popped back into town she always had a smile a many king words. I will forever remember the not only the smile but the love that was freely given with it. I will be praying that the peace of God which passed all understanding will bring you joy and comfort.

My love and prayers go out to the Jones Family. Lisa Jones and I were best friends, as well as neighbors. We shared some good times and treasured secrets. Although as adults our lives took us to different places, when we got together it was like time stood still. Two special people in my life received their angel wings in the last month. I love and miss you, but I will see you both again.
May God continue to bless the family, and remember that grief cannot take away the good times you shared, sorrow will fade in time...but memories will last forever.

Across your path you may encounter
More pain, more sorrow, more joy, more

But see each day as precious
Cherish each day as none like any other.
But no matter what your day may bring
See it as the spirit of the Lord
Working throught you to do his will.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Life among other things is an all encompassing circle. Found within it are the individual person, family, friends, a host of others, and God at the center. Without the development of each part, life is not fulfilled to its potential. Your life my dear friend was complete. Thank you Colleen for allowing me to be part of your circle. I love you, and miss you! To the Jones Family, May God wrap his arms around you and give you strength and peace.

She is a never ending subject. There was absolutley nothing I could ever need that she would not give and I the same for her. I can't say enough to do your memory justice. I love my sister.
