As we reflect back on the good times we had as we were kids at our grandparents,we can only hope the good lord had a better job for you with him. You will be greatly missed. Even though my sister and myself haven't seen you in recent years while you were serving your country you were often on our minds. A slight chuckle when we would remember the times we were bothersome to your brother Mike or when we were told to quiet down on an overnight stay and stop giggling . Like I said you'll be missed.

I know this crazy world has a reason for everything that happens. But this is something I will NEVER understand. Why were you taken from us so soon? I'll miss you Heidi. It breaks my heart to know you'll never be walking through that door again swinging open the door screaming for joy that you're back. The kids will forever remember you as their hero, and now their guardian angel. All of our guardian angels. You'll forever hold a huge piece of my heart. Until next time pretty girl. May the angels lead you in.
