Anastasia De Sousa Memoriam

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 13, 2010.
IN MEMORIAM ANASTASIA De SOUSA June 3, 1988 - September 13, 2006 Four years have passed, Yet I feel like it was just yesterday I told you good night. Your presence is constantly filling the air around us, Whether it's by memory, the familiar scent of your perfume, Or a person walking by that for a split second looks like you. You will never leave our minds and hearts and although it's weird to say, we can feel you watching, protecting and being here for us every second of the day. I don't think it's fair to say we Loved you, but rather that we Love you still, for everything that we do in the present and future is for You. Sometimes when I hear a song that we shared or watch a movie you would have liked, on occasion makes me cry, Know that it is not because I'm hurt, but because your memory lives on forever. Though my laughing and crying may seem sad, I know that you are happy that I am able to do so. You are my strength, weakness and love. Thank you for everything and may you Rest in peace with the Angels above. Miss you forever, Mom, Dad, Sarah, Nicholas, Picasso and family.

Happy Birthday Anastasia,

It is still hard to believe all these years have gone by...
Even your age I still can t believe..

To me I will always think of you being here...

Nothing will ever take away the pain, or the memories..

So we just have to believe that this is not forever...

You are beautiful human being with a heart of gold..

I hope your parents are doing ok.
I also hope your sister and brother are doing good.

As always you will never be forgotten..
I will come by to see you soon..

Happy Easter Anastasia ,

I always think about the time that goes by..
When I come to see you I look at your picture and just think this is not real..
Your age in the picture so young.
I just wonder what your life would be like today..
All that time gone by.. I still can t believe it.

As I always say I hope your family is doing ok...
Happy Easter to them.

So happy for your brother and sister.

Anastasia

It s not the Good Byes
It s the flashbacks that hurt too..

To my wonderful 1st born Anastasia. How we miss you so much. 18 years have now pass so fast yet as is it was yesterday. I miss you so much went by to see you but will come back soon to make sure all is nice. But it is hard with your Babcia grave beside you. I still have a hard time with that but at least you are with your grandparents. So take care of eachother till we are all together again.
So in less than 2 weeks your little man Nicholas your bro is getting married. It saddens me you won't be there physically But spiritually I know you will all be with us.
Miss you my baby girl

Hi Anastasia

As always just thinking about you...
Well today comes fast..
I don t know why I only know its not fair....
It seems so long ago but then it feels like yesterday..
Why did this have to happen?
You did nothing wrong..
You were just a kid going to school...
We will continue to move on and just cry in silence...
You were living your life the way you wanted to...
You have a family, friends, you had a life that you enjoyed living..
There was not a reason in the world that you could not have had it all...
No one will ever convince me that it was wrong place wrong time..
You were suppose to be there ...
You chose to be there with your friends, and get an education...
NO ONE had the right to stop you from doing that NO ONE...
I still feel mad...When I come to see you and look at your picture it really bothers me till today.
I want to say to your family that the time goes by but I will never forget.

Anastasia I would also like to wish you a Happy Birthday I posted it in June but it did not appear.

There is a song that I would like to dedicate to you..

The title is If I would of known....

Bye just for now.

Merry Christmas Anastasia...

Today is Christmas it s the day that we as believers celebrate the birth of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus.

Jesus teaches us that we should live our lives in Peace and in Harmony.

I m thankful everyday for those people that believe in his teachings and also follow them, only those TRUE believers can say they believe in him and why he put us here.

When God Fearing people wake up in the morning they follow God and remember to help, care, and NOT to cause pain to others. Just imagine that.

It makes me sad , and mad when there are people that choose to do the opposite and think its ok.

I want to say Merry Christmas to your family, and just to let them know loosing a loved one is not forever , GOD WILL REUNITE US ONE DAY. TRUST HIM....

Never Give Up Anastasia IS ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU.

My princess Anastasia
Another year goes by, now 17 years since you were taken from us.
We still don't understand why this had to happen but it did.
So the cemetery finally open ans we were able to visit your grave site. It was clean but I will go back to clean better and plant your flowers properly.
Sarah was finally able to bring our little Princess Sofia to meet you in your bed room as Sarah said to your niece, because you are sleeping.
You would love your little niece she is special and seems to have your fiesty character
I would like to thank Mary for writing to you several times a year on this site.
Love you my baby girl,
Mom ans Dad.

Anastasia

Today is a day that like many I have still a HARD TIME accepting...

I hate this day no matter what people say.

It still bothers me I will never get over what happened.

They say things happen for a reason, well not this time.

There is no reason in the world that will convince me of that.

The only thing I believe is that there are certain people that should of never been born.

Anastasia I want you to know that you are NEVER GONE your just with us in a different way GODS WAY.

I will always think of you and believe that you would never leave your family.

People that have faith NEVER GIVE UP they just live there lives knowing that one day it will be ok.

God Bless you and your family...

I can now come to see you.

Peace on Earth .

I hope you had a great day in heaven many people missed you here and you had many to enjoy on heaven with you as we would say new arrivals.
I love and miss you baby

Hi Beautiful girl,

I was just thinking about you and your family and wanted to wish you all a Happy Easter.

Sometimes life gets really hard and for me I try to not let it get to me to much.

Anastasia I always tell you that you and God and other things get me through I know that a strong faith and praying does help . There are messages we get from higher powers we need to listen ...

You are now an Angel helping God help us I will trust and believe that life can get better we need to not lose faith even though it is so hard sometimes.

The love for one s child over powers all other love this is what I believe.

I will never forget you....

So 15 years have passed since you were taken from us. This day is always crazy for me and I feel I walk around stone and doing what I need to do for everyone. But days before and after is when I really feel this day. You know how much we miss you. We talk about you all the time so we feel you are part of our conversation at times.
From above please watch on us all especially your grandparents who's health is not so great.
We love you my Pink Angel.
Miss you

Hi Pretty Girl,

Anastasia I wish I could erase all this .

All this time that has gone by to me always feels like yesterday.

So today is the day I often think about...I hate it....

I always tell people that nothing could heal you from things like this.. I say just ask their loved ones that are having to go through it.

Anastasia you are perfect... That is how I will always see you.

To your family a MILLION YEARS can go by I will always think about Anastasia......

Talk to you soon,

Mary

Hi Anastasia,

I came by to see you yesterday, I finally was able to do it...

So it was not easy at all, I felt so empty inside, I was kinda shaking.

I looked at your picture you look like a little girl, your face is so beautiful...like a princess.....

I bent down to clean up , there was a vase that the wind blew down I picked it up.
I was next to you sitting there and just thinking is this really happening , I was so upset , and mad , and sad, and frustrated.
I will try to be ok but it is not easy at all, I always think how hard this must be for your family.

Well I knew I was going to feel this way coming to see you..
But I 'm sorry It still bothers me Anastasia.

Next time I will bring you something pink.

Never forgotten.

Hi Anastasia,

It has been hard to connect with you...

Today I finally got through.

Like I always say why do bad things happen to good people?

I think about you all the time, even though they say time heals, maybe but not for everybody.

Anastasia this does not get better as time goes by, it makes it harder for me.

The years go by and we think why?

I really hope your family is ok, I think about them alot....

I have faith and that is what gets me through stuff.

Thank you for making me stronger and being there.

Happy Easter to you and your family.

Forever in my thoughts.

I think of you every September since that day; I never knew you, but I knew your grandfather. My son was at Dawson that day, late leaving class, talking to a teacher. I will be forever grateful for getting a tearful call from him, and will never forget that your family never got that call from you. May your family be safe during this pandemic, I wish them health and laughter always. Keep smiling down on them sweet girl!

I think about you often. I never met you but my daughter went to Dawson and walked down those same hall ways you did. Look after the students in that school and around the world. My heart aches for your mom as she will never forget the love she shared with you. Help her stay strong.

September 13, 2020

Anastasia,

I came here today just to say a few things.. It does'nt matter the day or month it is I always go back and look at all your pictures, and videos . I can honestly say it still affects me. Why , Why, Why . The years are really flying by so fast.... For me Anastasia it will always be hard to understand. No matter how many times I know your with God it still makes me wonder.... The love between a mother and her baby for me is the strongest love there is. There are a million things I want to tell you, the only thing that gives me hope is that your in heaven. No matter how much time goes by I will always have you on my mind.

As always I want your family to know that I don't care how much time goes by Anastasia will Always be in my thoughts.

I will light a candle for you and say a prayer.

Our PINK ANGEL we will talk again.

Life works in mysterious ways. 30 Years ago, it was actually the happiest day of my life. Becoming a mother for the 1st time to a beautiful baby girl named Anastasia. She brought me so much joy and happiness. Thank god she had a beautiful but short life. Today you would have been 30. Wondering what you would have become of you, as a career and would you be married with children? Life is not the same, we went to visit you this morning and had brunch in your honor, I know you loved food......
Miss you my baby girl,

Almost 12 years later, and you are still in our thoughts. I was one of the mom's who was lucky enough to see her son back home that day, and we always feel a little sadness when September comes around. I still wear pink on that day for you Anastasia; may your family be blessed with health and happiness always. Everyone was better for having known you...you will never be forgotten!

I didn't notice it was 10 years to the day, not even 10 years, but I just happened to check the site, and at the same time I noticed another site, where there were several videos marking the occasion, and it was nice to watch them but sad. Glad to see they still celebrate her birthdays and take her picture along on trips and so on.

I rarely listen to, watch, or read the news, but I happened to see a news item on TV which is a great example of what the DeSousas talk about: parental vigilance in Ste. Hyacinthe uncovered a conspiracy to commit 3 murders and a rape, which prevented the crimes.

My cousin was also at Dawson, where she majored in social work, and also posted a message here. She was a director of Head in Hands and was married to award-winning documentary filmmaker Ian Ferguson, who was also with the Fighting Back TV show. She can be found on the Internet. This was her message on this site.

September 14, 2006
As a long ago graduate of Dawson, please accept my deepest condolences for the loss of your beautiful daughter. May your hearts heal and be enveloped in the love of family and community.

Unfortunately, this site doesn't allow copyrighted material, and I think the lyric for ''Angel'', which should probably be called ''Forever Angel,'' written and performed by the Coors, is copyrighted, but it and the performance can easily be found on the Internet.

Best wishes as always to the family and friends.

Anastasia,

A lot of us refuse to move on...we do our best....but how can we?

Today is the day that many of us care to not remember..
Why does it see so fresh when the time says something else?

9 years have come and gone and you would of been a grown woman what I would give just to see who you would of become.

So Anastasia as always I want to let your family know that I will never forget you, and I will forever keep you in my thoughts.

OK this is hard so I will let you go for now..

I hope to come visit one day I need to see your smile.

We will talk again soon.

WISH YOU WERE HERE.

Anastasia,

Everyday there are people like me that wish so badly that you were here.

There is an absence on a daily basis.

The years keep going and the missing becomes harder...

I know that you see what is going on with us it's truly unreal how still today for me it's so sad that your family has to go through this.

I will be ok, I will think about you everyday, and I will hope always that your family is safe and that they remember I think about you all the time.

Today I will remember that your mother kissed you goodbye and that you remind your father of a champagne bottle ready to explode....

Your sister and brother have grown so much I wonder what there doing????

Anastasia I will forever think of you, I will always remember things about you.

Day by day...

Always on my mind

Hi Anastasia,

I came to see you today...

Such nice flowers that someone planted for you...

Everything was clean and tidy...

I have to be honest I still can't believe it...

I stood their somewhat lost just thinking to myself is this really happening?

Anastasia I did feel happy when I saw your picture..it made me remember to smile..

As I was walking away I kept looking back at you but I didn't want to say bye I can't I just can't do it.

Wish so bad that this did not happen.

There are to many things still today that remind me of you.

I'll see you later I'll never say never.

My the sun continue to shine on your face as it did today.

I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU.

Coincidence? Randomly though of the tragic shooting today at Dawson only to realize that today makes 7 years that Anastasia was brutally taken from this world. Thinking of her family and friends today who miss her everyday. Rest in peace Anastasia!

September 12, 2013

Thinking of the entire Desousa family today, as tomorrow is the 7th anniversary. I think of Anastasia often, especially when I visit her tree in the Peace Garden at Dawson...The garden is a wonderful tribute to Anastasia and a reminder to all that peace and hope will always be the way. To the Desousa family, there are a lot of people sending thoughts of peace and serenity your way, especially as Sept. 7, 2013 approaches.

Hi Sweetie,
Yes we have now made it to 6 years without you. It is the biggest lost for our family. We miss you so much and your sis and brother are growing so fast, but we know you are always with us because we feel your presence.
So Jen is having a baby soon, a little girl, so have you put any spunk in her upthere before she comes down? knowing you, you are showing her how to be a brat.....)
Miss you so much my darling,

Mom, xoxoxoxo

Hi Anastasia,

Thinking of you today like all other days...

I've seen so many pictures of you today..People will never forget you...

I want you and your family to know that I never let a day go by without thinking of you.

For me it still makes me sad, mad, upset whatever.

Anastasia the memmories,that face,the smiles,that laugh, the color pink etc...

These are the things that keep us going...

As always to your family it does'nt make a difference how much time passes, or where I am, or what I'm doing..

I WILL NEVER FORGET YOUR BEAUTIFUL ANASTASIA NEVER.
That's a promise I will keep now and forever.

Hi Baby,
Yes so yesterday many of us gathered at the cemetary to remember you on your birthday. You have so many friends/ family as they still come around to think of you, wow, that impresses me. they are good friends.

Dad and I were there at 8;06am with you at the time you were born, that was such a special day 24 years ago and I will never forget it.
your sis and bro don't say anything but I see it in their eyes how much they miss you.
we keep looking at your pictures and remember your smile, laugh and of course when you got pissed off that look...lol...
miss you so much, talk soon,
mom.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANASTASIA...

Another year without you...

This is just so unfair..

Today you are 24 years old.. WOW

Anastasia the past 6 years have been the same for me..
Your not here and there's nothing anybody can do..

As a mother myself I could imagine what your mother must be going through today..

As days go by I will always think of you and your family ALWAYS..

I'm sad still and still can't believe it sometimes...

I wish the senseless violence would stop....

What can we do as loving parents we do our best to teach our kids to be careful but we never know what lies ahead.

Your parents have all those memories of you ..the pictures...so much..
That no one can take away ..

As always I want to wish your parents the best of what the world has got to offer..

I will come to see you soon..

Always and forever in my mind and heart...

Hey Anastasia,

Another month has gone by...I still cannot believe this...

Where are you? Are you OK? Are you happy or sad?

I can truly say that it's not ok that you're not here for real..

The sadness of everything...it's just to much.


I hope your family is fine..
They need you so much.

Easter will be here soon..
A very important time for so many..
Be with your family on that day..

Always and forever on my mind..
