Just wanted to write you a little note to let you know I think of you several times a day and I know you are watching over the family as I feel it. Well it is Christmas time (your favorite holiday) and yes I am making a lasagna. It makes me happy to do that cuz I can still see you gobbling it up like nobody's business. Kim and the kids are well. Just know I love you and miss you more that I can put down here. I love you.

Sitting in the back yard the other day I had a butterfly hovering around me then the butterfly flew to the middle of the yard and flew straight up in the air and disappeared and I know with all my heart that this was you. I am so glad that you have found where Dad & I are now and I miss you so much that it hurts. You would be proud of the mother that your sister has become. You would also be so proud of your niece and nephew as they are growing into such wonderful people. I miss you and love you. Love, Mom

Just to let you know I am thinking about you. You would be so proud of your niece and nephew - they are doing so well and talk about how much they miss you all the time. Taylor is wrestling for his school and Shelby is wrestling for the town youth group. They are growing so quickly and are just a delight to be around. Shelby is still the blond sometimes but adorable as ever. Taylor is the typical 16 year old but he also is growing to be a wonderful young man. Miss you and think about you all the time. Kim is well and you would be proud of the wonderful parent that she is. I know I am. Love you and Miss you

Just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas and let you know I am thinking about you always and I miss you. I made lasagna tonight and thought about you eating half of the pan. Happy memories of you eating my lasagna. I miss you so much and Christmas is not the same without your silly hat and your silly rendition of Rudolph - Taylor, Thomas and Shelby went to Karoake one Saturday afternoon and sang Rudolph just the way you did. You would of love it. Miss you and love you dearly.

Jeremy - Ali had a baby girl and she is beautiful - had her on Sept. 19th and she weighed 7lbs 12oz. Kim seems to think she looks like Ali but when I saw the pictures on line that Uncle David did she has no upper lip just like Auntie Donna and Taylor.

Love you and miss you,

Hey baby, I miss you so much. I can't believe I'm living my life without you. Shattaya misses you so much, she's 4 now. She is the most cutest thing.

I cannot express how the untimely passing of Jeremy has effected all who knew him. His laughing eyes, so quick to smile in the face of adversity, to be and give his all to his daughter and family, all who knew him knows there are few that can compare. He will be sadly missed by me as I considered him one of my most endearing friends. He will be in my heart and mind, and will live on for as long as I do.

Jeremy, my heart is broken, by your untimely passing, I want to say thank you for loving my daughter and grandchildren. Even though only one was your child, you treated the other 3 like they was yours. Thank you for being there for them and looking out for them.

Donna, Kim, and the rest of the family, stay in touch, no matter what, we are all family because of Jeremy and Shattaya, that will never change. God Bless all of you.

Jeremy just found out he'd be a father
