It is hard to believe that 15 years have passed since you left us. A lot has happened in those years, but one thing will never change. The love we shared, the beautiful time we had together will be lasting memories that I will treasure for an eternity. You are always with me, holding a special place in my heart.... David

Hi Allyn. I think of you often. Finally after all these years, I reconnected with Debbie McCreery. I have missed her too. Talking with her made us both think of you and what good friends we were as teens. A time when those good friendships were so important. Love to you. Gary.

Dear Allyn,
It is a gloomy day out... always a sad day for me... It is the silence this morning... the memories of the worst day of my life are still very clear... Eight years have passed, and my heart has been mended... my life has moved on... I am happy again, and enjoying as much of life as I can with Jill... I know this is what you would have wanted for me...
Next April, we will be grandparents again... life goes on...
I am always mindful and grateful for my life that I shared with you... for all the laughter we shared, and the tears too... never alone... you will always live in my memories... in my heart...
The gloom of this day can never overcome all we had..... I miss you.......

A major shock came late last night when I discovered I had lost a dear close friend I had known in Lansing, MI since 7th grade. Allyn's death seems impossible and it really hurt deeply when I found out she had passed on to Heaven well over four years ago. It's unbelievable. We had been bridesmaids in each others' weddings and David, his two sisters and parents had attended my church, not to mention Allyn lived around the corner and down the street from my house in my neighborhood. I was connected to the Malling and Andress Families more ways than one. I can't get over she's gone and at such a young age!
Sadly because Allyn and I each moved around so much and were busy with our lives and families, we lost touch and contact, but I never forgot our friendship! Allyn dear, you were always coming to mind and how I wished we could have seen more of each other. I was unsuccessful in locating her and David after many attempts, but thanks to the Internet I found what I needed to know and how tragic! My heart really goes out to David and her three sons, Jason, Jonathan and Christopher as well as to Audrey, Gerry, Melanie and Paul not to mention the entire Andress
Family.
You three boys don't know this, but I have photos your mom sent me when you were really little and also was aware you sang in a boys choir near Minneapolis/St. Paul. Years later when I lived 11 years in Des Moines, IA, I traveled to the Burnsville, MN area in hopes I could locate all of you, but by then you had likely moved away.
Reading all the guest book entries and looking at all the photos caught me up on how we've aged and matured these past 30+ years. Allyn never lost her smile and I recall fond memories of our times we shared together before our high school graduation from Lansing Eastern High. One time we borrowed her parents brown family van and Ruth Pardee, Allyn and I all ate a clam and shrimp dinner at Howard Johnson's at Frandor Center, then went to a high school play...I believe it was about Helen Keller. Afterward, we treated ourselves to dessert at Tastee Freeze.
Allyn one year rode daily with Mother and I to school and then in our senior year of high school, I was riding home with Allyn in one of her parents' green Datsuns. I recall sharing many phone calls with her as well as many times of laughter. We grew up departing Lansing and going our separate ways.
Allyn never once left my heart or mind. She will forever be in my memories. I deeply grieve her passing and am at a loss for words.
Please accept my belated sympathy along with my love, care and prayers. We must move ahead as I have with my own life and keep truly focused on what really counts in our lives...that is, making Heaven our eternal home and taking as many with us as possible. I look forward to one day being with Jesus and being reunited with all my friends and loved ones. Life is full of unexpected surprises and adversities, but we must always remember our time living on earth is short compared to the time we shall spend in eternity. We have this promise if we are Christians and ready to meet God.
To all of Allyn's loved ones...We may all be scattered like sheep all across America, but may God bring lasting comfort and heal your hurting broken hearts. May the Lord's peace abide with you until you are rejoined with Allyn in Heaven some sweet day. God be with all of you and know you are in my thoughts and prayers!
With Love & Deepest Sympathy,
Cindy

Christmas is upon us again... Jill and I have all the kids here this year... Amber and Jason are so happy with having a baby soon! Jill and I are very excited to be grandparents!! Jill possesses all the excitement you had when it comes to babies...
Lisa and Jon seem so much in love and ready to marry... Chris is done with college, and excited to find his way in this world!
Jill and I have been married four years now, and my life with her is wonderful!!! We share all of our time together, and are very much in love... I am so lucky to have found someone to love me so deeply...
This is always the time of year when memories of the past come flooding back... we all have enjoyed many fond memories of you, and our Christmases together. I treasure every one of them... being with you at Christmas made them that much more special... you always tried so hard to bring happiness to others...
You gave me the greatest gift of all... over 30 years of love, and companionship... you were my best friend, and our love for each other was awesome... you forever etched in my mind, your beautiful face, amazing smile and wonderful laughter... I miss you Allyn... I know you are with me, and I will always have a place for you in my heart... Merry Christmas!!!

Dear Blue Eyes....
This is a day that I will never forget....
Jill and I went to the cemetary today... there is never anything easy about that, but Jill is always by my side....
It has been five years.... and it is my hope that all of our family can finally move on with their lives...
When all of this happened, I thought of October 3rd as your birthday... your birthday into heaven... now you are five years old in heaven... Happy birthday Allyn... You know that I loved you with all of my heart, and that I still love you...
I am happy that you are somewhere better than here... I know that God has a plan, and I surely do not understand it.... but I know that I am happy again, and I know that I have moved on past our tragedy... I have learned to live, and to love again... I know that is what you would want me to do... that is your gift to me... you are always with me in my heart... you always will be... someday, I will see you again......
Forever,
Green Eyes

To Allyn and her loved ones:
I found out about Allyn's passing in early October 2005. I was thinking about her and called Gerry and Audrey to see how she was doing. I had no idea she had died a year before. It truly felt like a knife in my heart, even after many years of not seeing her. I missed Allyn's memorial service and have recently connected with David. I want you all to know I love Allyn and she is always in my heart.

We lost you four years ago today. You are so deeply missed. Words cannot describe the intense loss. Thank you for being an awesome Mom being there for us with no hesitation. Thank you for all that have done for me, in making me a good person, with strong morals and values and being the best person that I can be. Seeking happiness, I know that is what you would want for all of us. I love you and miss you.

You came to me in a dream last night...
You helped me to see some things that I didn't understand...
It's funny how I used music all of my life to tell you how I felt about you, and in my dream last night, you told me through music how you felt about me and what happened to us... After you left, I was so caught up in my own feelings of loss that I never thought about your feelings.... I'm sorry.... thank you for sharing in a way to help me understand....
always know that I never doubted the love you had for me...
It was almost like a song.....
Love
David

Dear Sweet Cheeks,
This is our day.... 34 years ago today we began our journey together.... While I am still deeply saddened that you are no longer with me, I have used what I learned in our relationship to grow a new and strong relationship with Jill....
Allyn, you brought me many years of joy and happiness... I loved you with all my heart, and I still love you, knowing that you are with me in my heart...
Thank you for all that you shared with me over all the years we were together.... I have memories that will live with me forever...
My live now with Jill is wonderful... I am fortunate to have found two women in my lifetime that love me unconditionally... I am truly a blessed man.
I miss you... I really do.....
Love David

Dear Blue Eyes.....
Happy Mother's day Allyn... I have been thinking alot about you this past week. Thinking about how wonderful you were as a mother to our three sons... and how you extended those same qualities to hundreds of young children you taught through the years... You were a wonderful mother! You were loving, kind and caring... you had a heart of gold that overflowed with compassion and understanding... I am forever grateful to have raised our children with you. They have turned out to be fine young men, that I know you, and I are very proud of. I miss you...
Love always,

Dear Punky,
Our wedding anniversary is approaching... It has become a time of reflection for me. I think back at all the good times we had, and all that we did together... the three children that we brought into this world, and how proud we are of each of them. I often wish you could still be here to share in their successes and to see them grow as young men.... men that you helped to mold and shape into who they are today... I know you are proud of each of them as I am too....
I am happily married now, and Jill is a very happy and good and loving woman for me. After you left, I never thought I could find love again, but life put our paths together, and when we needed it the most, we found each other...
We will be going to see Jason get his degree next week, and I know you will be there in spirit too... I think about you, and miss you, and you will always be in my heart. I love you...

Dearest Allyn, My Heart Has been sad lately,and the thoughts of how time just slips away from us in a blink of an eye ,and how we can't get back Precious moments that we need to bind together our lives to make complete,& whole. We still have the right to ask Why..... Our Hearts still hurt and we muddle through the best we can, and try to understand, but the tears keep falling without any answers , I just keep looking to the Stars and know that your dancing,and keeping watch over all that you Love and are helping us To feel the Healing power of your Love and getting us through another day,and teaching us not to Blink our eyes too fast,so we don't miss the Best that God has to offer in Life.... (*~*) Angel's Kiss on your cheek. love BethAnn

Dear Punky...
Here it is already September... It was a year ago that I went in for my third surgery, and we survived our way through three hurricanes...
A lot has happened since this date a year ago... I know that you are aware of all of it, since we struggle still with your loss, and at times wonder why all this happened......
I told you last time I was with you all about Jill... We are very much in love, and I asked her to get married... and she accepted... and we have a wedding date set for June next year... Jill is bringing me a great deal of happiness, and filling the void in my life created when you left...... She knows how much I loved you, and that you will always be in my heart...... she is a very wonderful and beautiful woman...... understanding first hand the tragedy and grief felt by loosing someone you love......
I am truly blessed to have found in my life time two women to love me unconditionally...... I will forever remember the love we shared, and I will continue to love you forever......

My Dear Allyn,
It has been awhile since I last wrote to you...... We went to California, and watched as Jason and Amber got married.... Jason had a beautiful tribute to you for the mother/groom dance.... We could feel your presence throughout the day.... from helping us find the tape to saving the glass cake top that hit the floor..... It seemed so awkward to be there without you.... I missed you so.....
A lot has happened in my life.... I have entered into a new relationship, and found someone who will love me for who I am..... as I am..... She is a wonderful person, and I know you would like her..... I realize that I must continue to move forward with my life..... to find new happiness, and love...... I never thought it would be a journey without you..... at least I know you are with me in spirit, as you have made so very clear to me since you left...... I still cry, but my heart aches less.... knowing that you are in a far better place.... surrounded by the love of God.....
I love you punky.... you live in my heart, and are with me always.....

Dear Allyn,
Jason helped me to remember the words to the song in my dream of you.....
I will be walking one day
Down a street far away
And see a face in the crowd and smile
Knowing how you made me laugh
Hearing sweet echoes of you from the past
I will remember you.
Look in my eyes while you're near
Tell me what's happening here
See that I don't want to say good-bye
Our love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you will be mine
I will remember
I will remember you.
Later on
When this fire is an ember
Later on
When the night's not so tender
Given time
Though it's hard to remember darlin'
I will be holding
I'll still be holding to you
I will remember you.
So many years come and gone
And yet the memory is strong
One word we never could learn
Good-bye
True love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you will be mine
I will remember you.....
So please remember....
I will remember you..........
I love you Allyn....
David

Happy Fourth of July Punky....
I really wish it were happy..... but for me, I am not happy.....
I spent the morning with you... trying to understand all that is happening in my life.... trying to see things clearly...... trying not to let my heart, lonliness, or loosing you cloud my judgement.......
Sometimes desperation seems to guide me..... other times it is sadness, and loneliness..... you have left such a void in my life....
I miss you...
I love you......

June 25, 2005
My Beautiful Blue Eyes...
I just woke up from a dream... This was my first dream where I have been able to interact with you... My fourth dream of you since you left me... The first two dreams were only a short glimpse of you... My third dream was brief, and I saw you laughing...
I rarely have dreams that I remember, or dreams that are profound, but this fourth dream was both, so I am writing it down so I never forget... I believe that you came to me in my dream......
I was in an auditorium... It was full of people... I was watching a presentation of some group of people singing and dancing... The music was beautiful... No words, but a song that has words... I don’t know the name of the song, but I recognized the tune, and lyrics that may go "I remember always, I’ll remember you..."
The performers were a mix of men and women... I saw a person I know, and then I saw you...
You were dressed in a black skirt and jacket with a white blouse... You were in the front row... Your row began dancing, and you danced with the person next to you... You danced back and forth, and then switched to the person on your left... You switched again and again, faster and faster, moving quickly to the end of the row... You seemed happy, and there was a big smile on your face... Although you didn’t look directly at me...
When I realized it was you, I thought that this couldn’t be true because you were gone... I started to cry, and started saying to those around me that it was you, and that you should be dancing with me... I tried to move towards you, but I couldn’t move my body... I just stood there sort of paralyzed... Finally you had worked your way to the end of the row, spun around, and danced up the steps into the audience to the row where I was...
During this time, your clothes changed into a long white flowing dress... and you wore a hat... you were absolutely beautiful... I would catch a glimpse of your face and your smile as you spun in circles...
You continued dancing and turning in spins as you headed towards the end of the aisle where I was standing... When you got close enough, you reached out to me and I wrapped my hand around yours, and you pulled me towards you... You quickly took me back to the stage...
I could feel your warmth, and the touch of your hand inside of mine, and I looked at your beautiful blond hair flowing all around you... As we headed to the stage, I realized you were wearing your wedding dress and hat, and you looked so beautiful...
All this time you had been in front of me, pulling me along by the hand... You still had not looked directly at me... When we got to the stage, it was empty except for one older man sitting on the stage in a chair... You pulled me right past him very quickly...
Finally, you turned to face me... Both of our hands embraced and we began to dance... You were leading me, and you slowly lifted your head to look into my face for the first time... when I looked at you, into your eyes, your smile was rapidly fading, and sadness came across your face... You looked into my eyes and appeared as if you were about to cry...
Suddenly, you were being pulled away from me very fast... I tried to hold on to you, but couldn’t, and I lost your touch and watched you fade away... I was left staring into nothing...... Standing there all alone..... Our dance had ended..... The music had ended..... You were gone....... My dream was over..........
I woke up, and began to cry......
Thank you for coming to me in my dream..... I love you Allyn..... I will always love you.....
Your face.... your smile..... saying "I love you David"......
David
June 16, 2005
Dear Punky.....
Today I had a task to complete..... it turned out to be harder than I thought it would be.... the realization of your loss once again soared into my heart, and I got very angry..... after many tears..... the feeling of loneliness overwhelmed me again.....
This has been a hard week for me.... at moments like this, I don't want to go on.....
This is the single most painful experience that I and the boys have had to endure...... and it is unrelenting...... there has to be someway to let this pain go......
I miss you Allyn..... I love you, and I want you back..... and I know that will never ever happen.....
I am so mad and so sorry that our lives together had to end like this.....

Dear Blue Eyes....
It has been nearly 8 months since you left me.......
The pain has lessened..... but loosing you still hurts...... to never know how our lives could have been..... to never have you to hold again..... to never kiss your sweet lips..... to never share our love again..... this is truly the greatest loss of my life........
In my heart are the treasured memories of all we had.... of all we were together.... of our great love.....
I will always love you..... and I remain only a heart beat away..........
your Green Eyes
I love you....

Dear Allyn,
If you had only known what I felt for you… if you had only you known the way I lived for you… if I could, I'd be in heaven with you… my dreams would come true…
Because all I ever wanted…was you, and you alone… and I loved you so… more than you could ever know… all I ever wanted was you………
When you were my own… to caress and hold… I would shower you with love… and drown within your soul… because, I lived and breathed for you… and I really needed you to know…
That all I ever wanted was you and you alone… and I loved you so, more than you would ever know… all I ever wanted was you…
Everything I did was for you… you were every part of me… and I never wanted to face a single day alone without your love………………
Because all I ever wanted was you, and you alone… and I loved you so, more than you would ever know……
All I ever wanted… was you… just you……
I’ll love you forever…
Happy Anniversary Blue Eyes…

Dear Punky....
Yesterday, I went to Moffitt by myself to learn about the results of all the scans I had done a few weeks ago..... I knew that I had to do this alone..... it was painful to not have you with me.....
You would be so happy to know that nothing showed up.... I know that we would have celebrated in some way this victory.... a glimmer of hope amidst all the gloom, and tragedy that has come into our lives.... As I left, I felt sad that I did not have you with me.... to look into your face and see your smile of happiness.......
Later, I went to visit you..... I talked and you listened.... the events of the day were bittersweet to me.... A part of me wished for the worse... if only to expedite my end on earth, to start over with you again in eternity....
Right now, I can make no sense of anything in my life.... I just am living from day to day.... and at times hour to hour...... Yesterday was a mix of very powerful emotions.......... and I shared my news with many that I love.... but in the end... there was no you..... no hugs.... no "I love you David"..... only the tears.... and the silence........
It is kind of ironic that I don't even care or think about having cancer anymore..... what people fear so much of, is nothing when compared to the sudden loss of someone you adore and love more than anything in the entire world.... suffering a pain that will never heal..... the pain of my broken heart, and shattered dreams of my life with you.....
I love you Allyn......

Dear Mom,
You have and continue to support each one of us through your spirit. You are there for us whenever we need you.
I truely feel that you helped me out during my interview and pulled some strings to get me the job of my dreams!
I only have two more weeks until graduation and I know you will be there with Jonathan and myself celebrating, cheering and smiling with us.
It is so hard not to have you physically with us. However, your spirit is strong and resides with each of us. That in itself helps bring comfort to our hearts.
Thanks again for all your help Mom!
I don't think I could have done it without your help.
I love you!
Sincerely,
Angie
