I think of you so often. I ask myself "what if" all the time. There are no answers to my questions. I can still hear your sweet voice on the phone whenever I would call. I could hear your smile as you said "hi, Aunt Linda". Our last conversation ended with "I love you, Dalton". You said "I love you, too,"
I love you, Dalton. I miss you, so.

Dalton,
You are so incredibly missed and loved. Charles and I talk about you on a daily basis, we both wonder what it'd be like with you here, we wonder where you'd be in life, etc.
But one thing is for sure, I know with all my heart, we'd still be thick as thieves.
We love and miss you terrible.
Love you Dalton!

I dreamed of you last night. It was so good to see your smiling face...I miss that infectious smile more than you will ever know!
I've been thinking about you a lot lately. Summer time just brings back so many memories of all of us growing up...
I cherish every single one with you in it.
Missing you always,

Hi son, I was just thinking about the last time I snuck up behind you to wrap my arms around your broad shoulders and still a kiss on your cheek. I remember remarking about how amazing it is that such a tiny creature could grow into such a strong young man. You always blushed at things like that....loving and missing you always! Mama

Hey Big Brother,
Just remembering the day Hope was born.. You, me, our hospital buffet, and Betsy's menacing glances at us for eating when she could not :]
It's stupid little things like that that I miss the most.. Like Matt's graduation, when I finally let you drive my big red truck, allllll day long, you were so happy.. I'll never forget your smile and the way your hugs feel.. Missing you...
Always,
September 10, 2010
Dalton, It has been 3 years ago today that we laid you to rest and my darling, I hope you are at peace now. It hurts soo much not to have you here with us but it is comforting to know you are not hurting anymore. My heart is still heavy with pain but I know when I get to Heaven we will be together again!! Your loving Meeme.

Dalton, The girls went with me to the Bay last week end . We had so much fun, I just love being with them. I thank you every day for bringing them into my life, I am so alone now in that House all my myself, but when they come thru the door they bring laughter in and then I can be happy for a while. Both girls are learning to swim. Hope swims under water, she is so brave, just like you were. Hope still does not talk much but she sure knows how to let you know what she wants and Krysten is so good to her. She is without a dought a very good big sister.
They are a real joy!! Your Dad got a new job with another Floor co. and he sure wishes you could still be with him for him to finish teaching you to be a floor mechanic. He misses you sooo much, as we all do. I thank you for helping me when I call on you, so far you always do!!
Until we meet again ,know that I have you in my heart every day. Love forever and always, Meeme
July 30, 2010
Yes Dalton, Yesterday was so very hard for all of us, your Dad called me last night and asked me if I knew what today was and I said Of Course, it's Dalton's Birthday and we had a good crying spell , Dalton, your Dad hurts more than any words can express. He regrets so much that he did not spend more time with you in your short life here with us. He is happy about the good times he did spend with you and he cherishes the memories of those times!! I too cherish the memories of times we had together.Both of your girls are getting so big and Beautiful.
My love to you forever and always,
Meeme

Hey Big Brother,
Six years ago today, at 5am, I got a call from you telling me that my namesake was making her debut.
That little girl touches my heart in the craziest ways Dalton and I'm so so so thankful!
She knows that she can still talk to her Daddy in Heaven whenever she wants, which is just so sweet and heartbreaking at the same time... So, please continue to listen and watch her grow.
They're both just so smart and so beautiful and growing up so fast it's unbelievable!
Happy 6th Anniversary of the day you became a Father, we love and miss you every second...
Always,

I thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. I thought of you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, with which I will never part. God has you in His keeping, I have you in my heart. I miss you, Dalton.
March 5, 2010
Dalton,
I can not believe you have been gone over 2 years and the pain of losing you is as strong as ever. I still cry a lot and find myself wondering if you will be home when I get there from work everyday, my mind wanders a lot when I am driving but then reality hits and I know I will be going into a lonely old quiet house! I miss you sooo much. Betsy came back to work at Taxation and I enjoy seeing her everyday. Until we meet again, just know that I think of you all the time!
Loving you always, Meeme

September 11, 2009
WE ALL STILL MISS YOU SON BUT I WILL REFRAIN FROM CONSIDERING YOU AS A LOSS..BUT PREFER TO THINK OF YOU AS A GREAT BLESSING, GIFTED TO US ALL, IF ONLY FOR A LITTLE WHILE. FOR WHAT WOULD LIFE HAD BEEN LIKE IF WE HAD NOT BEEN BLESSED WITH YOU?
September 10, 2009
Dear Dalton,
I cannot believe it has been two years since we laid you to rest. The pain is still so fresh and we all miss you so much. I miss your sweet smile and your loving voice when you would say "hi Aunt Linda". We spent so many good times together. I am so grateful for those times. I don't think we will ever go to Graves Mountain again. It will never hold the joy again that it did before. I keep thinking we should have been at Graves Mountain that September day you left us. But we decided against going. I know God has a plan for all of us. If we had gone to Graves Mountian would you still be with us???? I won't know the answer until I see you again.
I think of you so often. When I see the pain on your Dad's face and the ache in MeMee's eyes and when I see your precious little girls I can't help but think of how the loss of you has broken so many hearts.
I love you sweetheart.
Aunt Linda
September 10, 2009
Dear Dalton,
It has been 2 years ago today that we laid you to rest, it was the saddest day of my life. My heart aches so much that sometimes I think it is going to jump out of my chest. I ask God every day why he gave me something so precious and then took it away, I hope someday I will get the answer but for now I see you through your Beautiful Girls, they both started school yesterday, Hope is going for speech, she has learned a few words, the one she says most is Bye Bye so i will say Bye Bye for now. I still miss hearing your sweet voice calling out , Meeme I'm Home
Loving you forever and always

Why did he have to go
So young I just don't know why
Things happen half the time
Without reason without rhyme
Handsome,sweet young man
Son, Father, and Grandson
Makes no sense to me
I just have to believe
He flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels
By the clouds and stars and passed where no one sees
And he walks with Jesus and his loved ones waiting
And I know he's smiling saying
Don't worry 'bout me
Loved ones he left behind
Just trying to survive
And understand the why
Feeling so lost inside
Anger shot straight at God
Then asking for His love
Empty with disbelief
Just hoping that maybe
He flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels
By the clouds and stars and passed where no one sees
And he walks with Jesus and his loved ones waiting
And I know he's smiling saying
Don't worry 'bout me
It's hard to say goodbye
his picture in my mind
Will always be of times I'll cherish
And I won't cry 'cause
He flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels
By the clouds and stars and passed where no one sees
And he walks with Jesus and his loved ones waiting
And I know he's smiling saying
Don't worry 'bout me
Don't worry 'bout me
Don`t worry 'bout me

Dear Dalton,
As you know, we gathered at your graveside for your birthday and sang Happy Birthday and brought you balloons. And as always you gave us a gift back. You answered a prayer for me by solving a problem I was having. I know that you were there with us. We miss you so much and see you everywhere around us everyday. I love you.

Hey "D", next month is b-day month. Your brother will be 22 and you would be 26. Kristen will be 24. Remember when we used to have little individual b-day parties and then one really big one for all of you in the middle of the month. Those days were the good times. Missing you, Mom
April 1, 2009
Dearest Dalton,
I hope you like the book I created for your Dad. As you know I worked very hard for several days putting together a biograpy of your all too short life. I have it saved on my computer so that I can look at the fruits of my labor whenever I like. It was a true labor of love.
Thank you for letting me know it is okay to talk about you with your children. I have so many stories I want to share with them but Betsey was against that in the beginning, so I abided by her wishes.
Krysten asked MeMee last weekend if you and Buddy were ever coming back from Heaven. MeMee told her "I don't think he can, sweetheart." Krysten replied "I wish I could go to Heaven and see them." It is so heartbreaking for everyone that you had to leave us. We all miss you and think of you everyday.
Love
Aunt Linda

Hey Dalton,
I have not sent you a message in a while, this is our busy time at work and I don't have a computer at Home but I just want you to know that not a day goes by that I don't think of you and remember all the good times we had. You were always so special to me. I loved you all your life and still do sooo much.
NO FAREWELL WORDS WERE SPOKEN, NO TIME TO SAY GOOD-BYE, YOU WERE GONE BEFORE WE KNEW IT, AND ONLY GOD KNOWS WHY....
Until we meet again, I am forever your loving Meeme!!
February 18, 2009
Hey Dalton, We miss u so much and talk about you all the time. Kristen loves to look at pictures of her Daddy and she shows them all to Hope. Hope points at her daddy and smiles. You will always be apart of our lives and your babies will always know their Daddy. Krysten always smiles and laughs when your name is mentioned so you tell aunt Linda that it's ok to talk about it with Kristen. Sometimes she tells funny stories about you. Like the time when your car broke down and you carried her on your shoulders. she remembers! Love always, Mom

February 16, 2009
Dear Dalton,
I spent some time with your girls yesterday. MeeMe painted the "blue" room pink and purple and it is everything your little princesses love. Krysten is adorable and a spitfire all wrapped into one. Hope was making funny faces with me and suddenly I felt a stab in my heart because you are not here. She is so much like you and when I looked into her eyes I saw you. The words almost flew out of my mouth..."you Lil' Dalton" but I caught myself. We all try very hard to not talk about you when they are around. Krysten knows her Daddy is in Heaven but in her innocent little mind she doesn't understand about Heaven and the mysterious ways of life. MeeMe told me that she found Krysten just standing in front of your car. She wasn't saying anything or touching anything.....just looking at your car. MeeMe didn't disturb her and did not ask her what she was doing but we wanted so badly to know what was going through her little head. I know that she loves you and I guess maybe she was just wondering how you are getting around in Heaven if your car is parked in MeeMe's backyard!!! I know you are watching over all of us left behind. We are all doing our best to deal with your loss each in our own way.
I am sending you a prayer for MeeMe.
I know that everyone in your family and circle of friends misses you every bit as much as MeeMe does but she just seems to not be able to find the strength she has always seemed to have. Losing you has really taken the wind out of her sails. I worry about her very much but I find myself not talking about you very much unless she speaks of you first. I am afraid that she is going to shatter; so in moments like yesterday when I saw your face smiling back at me through Hope's beautiful face I silence the thoughts in my head and keep them to myself to share with you. Oh, Dalton, this is just so hard. Please send an Angel to look over MeeMe's shoulder.
Thank you for listening, sweetheart and thanks for dropping in to say "Hey, Aunt Linda".
Joyce Brown

Good Morning, my darling Dalton, I was sitting here remembering that horrible morning you left us and asking God why. I miss you so much and it makes me so sad that you are not here to enjoy those beautiful little girls. Hope is starting to say a few words. She is going for her second surgery in March. She will get the implant for the other ear. She is so smart. Krysten still talks about you a lot. She found some of your Match Box cars in a box and I said to her Oh , Honey they were you Daddy's and I want to keep them, she said to me well, my Daddy is in Heaven and he won't mind if I play with them, then I said of course he won't mind ,you play with them as much as you want to, they are both so sweet and adorable, my life would surely be empty without them. Betsy lets me get them real often, she is so good to me. We did have a few problems in the beginning , but she has fiorgiven me for me for all the mean things i ever said to her and she showers me with Love. I know she knows you would want that but it is genuine. she is doing a wonderful job with the girls, they are so sweet and polite. I treasure every moment that I have with them. Dalton, I Love you with all my heart, until we meet again I am your loving Meeme
December 30, 2008
Dear Dalton,
Well sweetheart, another year has come and gone. It seems as though time has stood still in some ways. Missing you is never going to stop; yet somehow the sun comes up and we do the daily things that must be done and then we go to bed; the sun comes up and we start again. We all love you so much.

Well, Dalton we made it thru Christmas but Oh how I missed you. Your Mom sent me the most precious gift, it was your yellow blanket that I repaired so many times because you would not have any other that anyone bought for you. I will treasure it for the rest of my life. Christmas was fun with your precious little girls, I got them both new bikes and helmets. Hope jumped on hers and took off like a pro. I am sure she will be just like you and want the training wheels off real soon.
LOVE FOREVER Meeme

Everyone misses you so much. I think of you everyday. I keep our picture on my desk and I treasure that picture so much. Uncle James and I are going to Atlanta to spend Christmas with Trey and our two beautiful granddaughters. I haven't been able to spend Christmas at home since you left. It just isn't the same. It never will be again. The pain of losing you is still so freash for everyone. I know your mom and dad miss you more than words can say.
I don't know how they get through the days. I guess with your help. I know you are beside us and helping to lift us up when we need it most. I just wish I could have one more day with you. One more day for all of to be together again. I love you sweetheart. I am thinking of you always.

Dalton, my Darling, I am having a
rough day today. I miss you so much, it is almost unbearable, I was trying to do a little christmas shopping last night and I kept seeing things that I knew you would like. You always liked the shirts i bought for you. I have not been able to find the red one That I got you for your last birthday. You probably left it at one your friends. You said it was your favorite one. I was holding Hope on my lap the other night , she likes that just as you did, she is so much like you, It's unreal. It made me remember your second christmas, you were sitting on my lap , looking at the christmas tree and I was singing christmas songs to you and you looked up at me with such admiration, you would pat me on my face and just sit with me for hours. Those memories of all the beautiful holidays we had will be with me for the rest of my life. I treasure them with all my heart. I know you are spending christmas with Jesus but you will surely be missed by all of your family.
LOVE forever and always.
Meeme
December 1, 2008
My Dearest Dalton,
Well honey, we made it thru Thanksgiving again but I sure missed your beautiful smiling face coming through the door rubbing you hands together saying oh boy, meeme's Thanksgiving dinner. I miss you every day but holidays are so sad. I never thought I would have to go through a holiday without you, It's not supposed to be that way, you going before your Grandmother. Your beautiful girls help to fill the emptiness in my heart but it still hurts so much not to be able to see you. Every time Krysten comes and sees your car in the back yard, she says, My Daddy used to take me riding in that car. We all miss you soo much. Love forever and always, Meeme

My Dearest Dalton,
Most of the family gathered today at Uncle Kenny & Brenda's pretty home. We all missed having your smiling face among us, although I know deep in my heart that you were indeed with us. Silently working behind the scenes to bring about much needed change to our somehow fractured family. We all love and miss you terribly, especially your Dad and MeMe. They, I believe have been hit the hardest by your untimely departure. I think about you very often. How are the fried eggs with balongna and mustard in heaven.....heavenly I bet.

I am just sitting here at work and thinking of all the good times we had while you were growing up. Trips to Buckroe, trips to Graves Mountain and snow tubing at massanutten. My fond memories of all those times and the times when you and Joe would be cooking Pizza when I got home. You always saved some for me. You were so sweet to me and I treasure those memories. I am looking forward to the day when I will see you again.
Love forever and always, Meeme

In just a few hours it will be one year since that dreadfull morning that you left us. I just can't believe it has been a year, it seems like just a few weeks. This has been the worst year of my life. I miss you so very much, I miss hearing you come in and call out Meeme, I'm home....that sweet voice, I was always so glad to hear.Dalton, I wake up every morning reliving the morning of September 6, 2007. I just wish I could understand why God needed you more than we did . Krysten said to me one day "I wish I could go up to Heaven to see my Daddy" she is so sweet just like you were and Oh my gosh Hope looks just like you and she has a little temper just like you did. They are coming to visit me this week end and they mean the world to me. I LOVE and MISS YOU SOOO MUCH!!!

Dear Dalton,
I guess you know I did get back from Atlanta in time to come out to your resting place. I got off the plane at 5 O'Clock and stopped to get you happy birthday baloons and rushed out to WMP. I was just sitting on the ground talking to you , when Big Krystin drove up with 25 Red baloons for your 25th Birthday. Soon after that Betsy drove up with 50 Red baloons 25 from each of your girls. Then lots of the family and friends came to wish you a Happy Birthday!!
We sang Happy Birthday to you and we thought you were probably laughing like crazy. Finally they let the baloons go, sending them up to you, it was a beautiful sight, we all watched them until they floated out of sight. I hope you were able to catch a few of them. Hope you had a happy birthday with all your friends that are up there with you.
We all LOVE and MISS YOU SO MUCH!! Send me a message, I am so lonesome, but I am getting the girls this week-end.
LOVE FOREVER AND ALWAYS,
Meeme

Dearest Dalton,
Happy Birthday, sweetheart. I would give so much to be able to say that to you in person. I would have the biggest birthday bash possible. We would have lasagna, with birthday candles instead of cake. Okay, we would have cake too. I finally had to get my windshield replaced for inspection. Every time I drove my car I would look at that crack and remember how I raced home from the Bay when your Daddy called me and told me what had happened. I don't know why I felt like I had to race home. There was nothing I could change by breaking every speed limit from there to home but I just wanted to get back as fast as possible. There are so many "if only's" in my mind and in my heart. We were supposed to go to Graves Mountain that week but most of the family backed out and we decided not to go. If I could go back to that precise moment in time when I told MeeMe we should just wait until next year I would take it back and pay for the whole trip myself.....that would be a very small price to pay to have you back in our family circle. Today should be a day of celebration and happiness. You are 25 years old. In just six short weeks we will be mouning your loss. The pain is still so fresh and so raw that it just does not seem possible that it has been almost one year since you left all of us. Your mama and daddy grieve for you so much. And I am sure MeeMe will never be the same again. You have no idea how much joy your girls give her and the rest of the family. I actually see more of your babies than I see of my own little granddaughters. They live so far away that I can't see them very often. So, I hope it is okay with you if I love your girls as if they were mine. I don't think it is possible for any child to get too much love. Krysten is so smart and Hope; oh my goodness, she is so clever. She makes me laugh so hard I cry. Both girls are precious and I don't mean to take anything away from Krysten but Hope just tugs on my heartstrings. It is like looking into the past......23 years into the past.
Dalton, I miss you, sweetheart. I miss your voice saying "Hey, Aunt Linda" and I could hear the smile that was on your face. You were always so sweet and loving. If God were to grant me just one wish it would be to have you back on this earth. I wish there was a Superman that could spin the earth backwards and change the way things happen. I wish, I wish, I wish......I wish you a Happy Birthday,
Love Always
Aunt Linda

I am still in Atlanta visiting Trey and his family. I will be home sometime today but it may not be in time to visit you, but i will be out to visit tomorrow and bring you a Happy Birthday baloon. I can't believe it has been 25 years since I first held you in my arms and fell in love with my beautiful Grandson I have loved you since then and I will love you forever and always.

Dalton,
Well it's your birthday soon and it's almost been a year since you left us and i still cannot believe it's been that long. It still seems like yesterday when we were all together having fun. I miss you terribly and i think about you all the time. I saw the girls at Matt's birthday party, they are so big and beautiful, you would be so proud. We are all growing up so fast, Matt's 21, Kristen is almost 23, i'm almost 22, and you would be 25, wow! How good times fly. I plan on coming to see you on your birthday and just say hello and tell you that i love you and miss you. So till then, love ya, miss ya, and keep on watching over us!
I Love You Dalton.
Yours Truly,

Hello Dalton,
I am sure you know by now that your Baby girl is starting to say a few words. She is so adorable and smart, I just love her so much. Of course I love both of them, but it has been such a joy to watch the progress that Hope is making. I plan to get them this week-end, we are not going to the Bay this week-end but we will do some fun things. We will be going back to the Bay in a few weeks. Dalton, I miss you more than any words can describe. I have loved you all of your life and will love you always and forever.You are in my thoughts every single day!! Thank you for giving me those precious little girls to love.
Lots of LOVE, Meeme

Hi Dalton,
Thank you for helping me out the other night, James had some new keys made for their lock on the place at the Bay. They left before I did because they had to get Home for the dogs, but asked me to shut everything off and lock the door. Well, when I went over to do that the key would not work for me . I tried it on the front door and the back door. It was late and no one else was around, I wiggled it up and down and it just would not lock. I looked up at the sky and said OK Dalton, you got to help me out here, I can't do this , I tried again and it just turned with the greatest of ease. Thank you, darling, I knew you were watching over us. I miss you soo much.
Lots of LOVE ALWAYS AND FOREVER

Hey son, It seems you have more company now. Kent has come home to join you. I know you were most likely there to help greet him. Please let him know we all love and miss him too. We are all going to be at Mamaw's this weekend. I hope you can drop in. Mattman and Kristen's birthday's are comming up. I know you always said you couldn't wait until your brother turned twenty-one so you could take him out. He is going out with Ricky and Kristen and the gang. I think your dad is going too. I hope you will be there to watch over them. I love you and miss you more than words can say! Mama
