To family and friends,

My heart goes out to all who knew and loved Jamie. She was a wonderful friend of mine and I will miss her terribly.

We go through everyday life thinking we will always have those we know and love here with us. In an instant they are gone and we are left with memories and thoughts of times we've shared together.

Take a moment out of your day to tell those in your life how much you love and care about them. Show them patience and understanding, give forgiveness when necessary, and don't forget the hugs and kisses as we never know when we will see them again.

Love, Rodney and Debbie Vota

Paul,
I want you to know that even though we were not close the last several years, that does not mean that we loved you guys any less. I am sadend everyday that passes knowing that I lost so much time with you, jamie and the kids. We were all once so very close. We lived together, we played together, we snuck out of the house together and we loved each other like sisters not just like cousins. You became part of our family well before you started dating jamie...we were all so close back then...I am here if you or the kids need anything. I would love to be a part of their lives. Please keep in touch with me.....Jamie left you with the greatest gift of all...her smile, her laughter and your beautiful children....I love you guys very much....
Your cousin Stacy (silvia) Evans

To my cousin Jamie's family,
I'm Jamie's 2nd cousin Lori (Sullivan). I haven't been in touch with the family for years, seems like we only saw each other at funerals and there were just too many too soon with this poor family. I'm so sorry. I'm crying as I'm typing this and I want everyone to know that I wish we were all closer..I live in PA and my mom Dolores (Uncle Freddy's sister) lives in Florida. The only one left in RI is Cousin Becky and Cousin Tracey. I'm replying for all of us...May god be with you all. Cousins Lori, Dolly and Claudia and Aunt Dolores

My deepest sympthy goes out to all of you. Losing a loved one is a horrible loss for the family but GOD only takes those that he needs the most. He gave a precious gift of Jamie to everyone and left her smile imprinted in your minds and her love in your hearts. She was loved by everyone she know and touched everyday. Sadness is upon you now but someday you will think about her and smile at the warmth that will come over you and the memory that will stay forever till you meet again.
She will always be watching over you and protecting you. The soft breeze you feel will be her touch and the little voice you hear at night will be her wispering good night and sending her love to you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, ""I welcome you.""

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......""My day was not in vain.""
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
