Alexia Eaton Obituary

>EATON, Alexia Michele, made her transition into spirit May 23, 2007. She was born May 15, 1975, the daughter of Philip H. Eaton Jr. and Michele Tsacries Eaton. Our beloved Alexia is survived by her sisters, Tiffany Stoeltzing and Ashley Carmichael; her grandparents, Ernest and Dorothy Wichelns; aunts, Sherry Jankelevich, Sevasti O' Hara and Sharon Eaton; uncle, Harris Eaton; and many cousins. She was adored by her nephews, Eaton and Brent Stoeltzing, and they will always remember how she made them laugh and shared music with them. "Lexie," as she was lovingly called, was very special and loved by so many people who delighted in her loving, caring, compassionate nature and her childlike lovable ways. She had many friends who will deeply miss her and will always remember her with much love, The family will receive friends 7-9 p.m. Monday, May 28, at Sylvan Abbey Funeral Home. A church service will be 11 a.m. Tuesday, May 29, at the Episcopal Church of the Ascension in Clearwater, Fla. As we all grieve, please remember "Do not weep, rejoice that freedom has come to a young soul who will no more be distressed by the trial of this world." Though our physical eyes cannot see, and our physical ears cannot hear, our Lexie will be ever present. In God' s great kingdom there is no death and all continue to live in a far better place in a world which is richer and sweeter than anything you have ever dreamed. Know that she has been given angels to protect her and that in time we will all be reunited with her. Sylvan Abbey Funeral Home and Memorial Park, Clearwater Fla., (727) 796-1992.

Dear Eaton family,
I'm so sorry to hear about Alexia. I remember meeting Alexia for the first time shortly after Ashley started at St. Paul's. I thought she was great given we shared the same name and I had never met another Alexia. I fondly remember coming over to your house through the trees in Seminole and playing together. You are in my prayers.

Even from far away and with many years since I last saw Alexia, the thought of her brings back many childhood memories. My condolences to your entire family.

To The Eaton Family:

I had not seen Alexia for ages, though I have thought of her from time to time. We shared childhood moments in Seminole, at Carlouel and at St. Pauls. My sister shares the same name. I just wanted to say that your family is in my prayers.

Our family met Alexia when she was a child through Alexia's friend, Brooke Hazatone. We were Brooke’s neighbor and our daughter, Tiffany, was friends with Brooke as well. Many times Alexia would be visiting Brooke and they would end up at our house and on occasion spend the night. We very much enjoyed having Alexia in our home. Alexia was a very down to earth, beautiful, sweet, and kind little girl. Our family is very saddened to hear the news of Alexia. May God be with your family during this challenging time.

With Deepest Sympathy,
Paul & Karen Dolbow, Kelly Dolbow
Vissers, and Tiffany Dolbow Maczuga

Dear Phil and Michelle,
It has been years since we had any contact, but you and your little girls are a happy memory in our lives. We will always remember our oldest two girls in pre-school together. Your family always was a pleasant reminder of what was right in this world. Your love for each other was always evident. We know it will sustain you at this time. No words will make the pain go away. Time and happy memories of your daughter and her place in your lives will temper the pain and will allow you to go on. Know that we share your hurt, but revel in the happy memories also.

With loving thoughts,

I made her laugh and she made me laugh. And we mostly laughed together. She was a one of a kind. I will miss her. Godspeed sweetheart.

So many memories from a childhood filled with giggling and happy times. I recall that Lexy laughed at the end of most sentences!
Sweetest little girl and an unintentional magnet to those around her.
I was amazed to realize this weekend how many of us considered her our best friend. She had enough space in her heart to accomodate all of us!
I loved her so much and am so grateful for her love of me. She'll always be a sweet, smiley, loving child in my mind.

With so much love to you four.

Mr. and Mrs. Eaton, Tiffany and Ashley,
It has been a very long time since I have run into any of you...over 20 years. I have not seen Lexi since she was a toddler chasing after Ashley and me in your Seminole home. She was a beautiful child and grew into a beautiful woman. When I read of her passing, I had to catch my breath. It brought back a flood of childhood images.
My sympathies to all of you.
Sincerely,

Ruth Ann Fowler Melzer

JUST AS GOD MADE HER

How to be consolable
when feeling it's not right
In my selfish grief
i wish i did not have to say
i only hold these memories of youth and joy
so I not come
because i wish they would stay
cannot find a picture of Lexy sad
nor angry nor ungrateful to life
she is surely one of Gods sweetest flowers
greatly adored remembered light
i hope our angel will sing
with all Gods angels in heaven tonight
i thank alexia for our little days
and how she laughed and loved me
in all of my ways
for days and days and days
we grew up and after so long
without a word said i now know
we had so much fun
we wished we did'nt have to grow
God lift her Soul
make her dying a blessing as she wishes
not our toll
may silent truth always ring
for there's too much of this not to say
just o' happiness she does bring.

FOREVER YOURS,
BROOKE

To the Eaton Family: I know how much Alexia was loved. I remember her at my Michelle's (and Ashley's) debutante parties looking every bit as beautiful as the debs. It was obvious that all of your children were cherished and well loved by the many wonderful things you did for them. You are a beautiful family, and my heart aches for each of you in this tremendous loss. Just know that Alexia will always be there with you in her tremendous spirit.

When I came to Tampa, I didn't know anyone here. Lexie and her family took me in like a little sister, part of their family, and made me feel like I was welcome and at home with them always. I have enjoyed so many holidays and amazing, joyful memories with the Eaton family and Lexie, laughing and just being girls. I love you Tiffany, Brent & Eaton & Michelle, I am here for you always! I feel blessed that your family is in my life and blessed to have known Lexie. All my love, always, Casey

My heart is aching at this news. You know I'm praying for your family and agree with the beautiful sentiments that you wrote in this announcement of your precious Lexie.

Michelle, Phil, Tiff, Ashley, Eaton, and Brent,
I am so sorry and I am so sad. I love you each so much. I am reminded of how you'all helped us (Ruth Ann, Carmen and I) in 1984 with the passing of Larry. I wish I could be there now. Please know I am there in thoughts, prayers, and true compassion. All my friendship and grief, Tiana

Lexi's spirit lives in me with her passion for the beach, her smile, her laugh, and her true goofiness.
I am so blessed to have grown up with her and each of you in my childhood and beyond. Thank you !

Dear Eaton Family,
I was saddened to hear of the loss of Lexie. I only met her a few times through Tiffany but I remember her having an infectious smile and a love of life. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. My love to all of you.

Lexi I will love you forever, never to be forgotten. It is very hard for me to believe you are gone physically, but I know you will never be gone spiritually. We did not spend a lot of time together as we got older but I know our hearts were always connected and are still. I love you and miss you.

Jennifer Farrell

To know a person as long as I have, to love a person as long as I have, makes you wonder how to live and love the rest of your life without them. I have known Alexia as long as I have been alive. I have felt her smile, I have lived with her love. Her infectious smile makes you smile no matter what the situation. Her laugh, completely contagious makes you laugh no matter what. Alexia is and will always be the closest person I have or will ever have to a sister. As my heart is broken now, I know that in time I will look back and know that she is in a better place. I will laugh at the silly thing that we did as children and as adults. She will be my best friend now and forever.

Michelle, Phil, Tif, Ash, Eaton and Brent we will love her before, now and always.

You all are always in my heart.

Will all my love,
"Jenny"
