Every day, I wonder what you would be doing if you were here. How would you look? How spoiled would your grandchildren be? How much would you have changed? I miss you and miss getting to see you age with me and the rest of us. I wish we could hang out, go bowling or dancing or just sit and talk and have coffee. Until i see you again, you will be forever missed.

Every Day that goes by doesn't get better. I am here. With your first grandchild you never met. I went to prom and you couldn't help me pick out my dress. I was married and it was a court house wedding you never saw. I am going through my first divorce and you are not there to be able to emotionally support me. You can never be there for me because you were taken from me. I love you and miss you mom. One day I will be able to accept what has happened and I will truly realize that you are gone and are not coming back. It sucks that your 21 year old daughter still cries and screams out "I want my mommy."

Warm Summer Sun
Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.

Jessica, we were cousins and friends and played together as children. I will especially be praying for your children to be well taken care of and for the rest of your family. Sorry you had to leave so young, but your soul is now free from the weight of this world.

My sincerest condolences to the family. What a tragedy for such a wonderful girl to be taken from this world at such a young age. I knew Jessica in high school, and honestly haven't seen her much since, but I never did forget her. May she rest in peace now beyond the pain and strife of this physical world. I will keep her children and family in my prayers.
