I am so terribly sorry for the loss. I know its been a long hard 9 months without her but just remeber that she is in a better place. I know its hard to think bout but i guess i think that is why autumn is up there watching over every single one of us! because she cares about us! I know that you would all do anything in ur power to bring her back but remeber that she is better and not hurting up in heaven!

I think about how horrible this has been for myself and your loved ones, and I feel bad for us. But then I get to thinking about everyone who didn't get a chance to be blessed by your presence, and i feel even worse for them. "I would rather have loved and have lost, than have never loved at all".... There is no goodbye for us, Autumn. Until we meet again, I will carry your heart with me. I love you so much.

Autumn,
You were a beautiful and amazing girl. I was never blessed to be a good friend of yours, but your death still meant the same. I am sorry that this happened to you. If I could change what happened I would, because you were loved by so many. I guess we don't know what we have, until it's gone. I wish we had more time to get to know each other better. This proves that the best people have the most rotten luck. I'll see you up there some day!

Give her a hug for me! You were such a beautiful, outgoing, funny, sweet girl and, I am so lucky I got to know you over the years in Middle School. I remember when we had Mr.Murphy for prime time and, I shared my sour patch kids with you. You loved those. And when you came over to my house with Ellie. There is not a day that goes by where I don't think about you. I love you girl. Rest easy.

Dear Autumn,
I have known you seriously what seems like forever!
Elementary school Best Friends, when I was in Second grade and you were in First on the playground!
We have so many elementary school memories!
Me almost cheering with you!
We have memories of our texting conversations.. Those were the BEST!
You were always here for me, even if I didn't want to talk to anyone, not even my mom because I was so upset you were the one to text me and tell me it's going to be okay, you told me don't worry, it'll all turn out okay!
We kept planning our next hang out, but we ran out of time!
You were one of the most gorgeous, realest, sweetest, most amazing girls I have ever met in my life! I know I could count on you for anything and everything! I love and miss you so much babygirl! You'll be forever in my heart and mind!
I'll see you again eventually, it may be days, weeks, months, or even years but I swear to you we will meet again!
Rest Easy Babygirl<3 Taylor Held <3

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.
