Skylar- I still think about you everyday even though I didn't see you everyday. I look at your picture and see so much good in your eyes. I know everyone has their own memories...but I remember you as a wonderful kid who really grew up to be a nice young man. We all will miss you...but your mom will miss you the most. So glad you are at peace! I love you!

Our time together, was very important to me and I know to you the same. You were...to me, my son as well as my own. I regret the time we've lost, and adore the time we had buddy. -You are irreplaceable. I miss you SFM. -Uncle Donny

Bubs,
I can't tell you how much I miss you and how badly I wish I would have been able to keep you home so that "whatever" happend didn't and you'd still be here today. I sure hope that you did realize how much mom loved you and that you were and will always be my world. Without you I am broken and will never be complete as the biggest part of me is now gone. I LOVE AND MISS YOU SON!!!

As a father of an eight year old, the news of your loss breaks my heart beyond words. I am so, so very sorry. I just finished a prayer asking the Lord to help you find some shred of solace in this most excruciating time. Randy and I think and talk about you guys all of the time, and though we are in Texas we are with you in our thoughts and prayers.

Becki, so sorry to hear about your loss. After all those emails and phone conversations in my three years of having him in class, I know how much you cared and wanted the best for your son. Skylar always brought a lot of energy to my classroom and was fun to have in class, he had a big heart for his mom. As teachers we have students come and go, but I will always remember the funny things he did, nobody will ever forget him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Becki - With the loss of your mom so fresh in my heart, the loss of Skylar is something that is too difficult to make sense of. For decades your family has been an extension of mine, we have shared so many special moments and times such as this are not anything we can ever be prepared for - nor hardly anything we can accept. Know that the love and prayers of my entire family are with you and we will always be here for you in the days and times that lay ahead. Our deepest love and sympathy –

Skylar,

I am deeply saddened by your passing.

I can still remember the first time I ever saw you, learning to walk around the coffee table with a baby bottle hanging from your teeth, and a mischievous smile.

You will be missed.
Rest in Peace Bubba.
