Not sure what to say?

My mind stills looks for you. I see you everywhere I go. Can't believe you are not here anymore. I'm so alone. You were my strength, my heart, the joy of my life. I walk around with a broken heart. Babe you know you weren't supposed to leave me like that. I really miss you. I just want to see you again. I just want to tell you how lost I am without you. My sweetie. Every day, a year later is still a struggle for me. My heart forgets you are not here sometimes. But I know you are...

My sweetie, it's been almost a year since you left me and my heart still has healed. My heart is still broken. My life is so lonely without you. I still find myself in tears whenever I think of you. You were the best. I miss you sweetie. I will never stop missing you. I'll never stop loving you. I'll never stop thinking about you. Some how I still see you smiling, that big smile that always warmed my heart. I miss you baby, I miss my Dear Sweet Renay. Loving you forever. Scott

I miss you everyday sweetie. My life changed when you went away. I miss you so much my dear sweet Renay.

We are deep in praying for the entire family. May God Almighty comfort you all, during this time.

Doris,
I think about you everyday!
Thank you and you’re family for caring for me. You were so sweet to me and you will be greatly missed.

Praying for the Crittendon family as they lay a special one to rest.

My sincerest condolences to Jaliyah and the extended family of Doris. I had the pleasure of working with Doris both as a peer and as her supervisor and Ill forever cherish the relationship and rapport we had with eachother. She was such a character and had huge sense of humor. Doris you will be missed!

Please accept my deepest condolences and know that God loves you and can restore your spirits, give you peace, and strengthen you. I was privileged to have worked with Doris at Virginia Premier and she will be greatly missed.

Words can not describe the disbelief that I feel. Penny will forever be in my heart & I will miss the laughter & your jokes. Jaliyah, you were the center of your mom's world. We would often joke about how our daughters would stay in our pockets (Victoria Secret this & always wanting to shop for that, LOL) I know you will continue to make her proud & live your life to the fullest as she would want you to. My deepest condolences & continued prayers to the friends & family.
