October 30, 2004

I have never met Torie but I just transferred to Fitchburg State College this semester. I am sorry to hear about the loss of Torie. I wished I had met her. May Torie rest in peace.

To the Snelgrove Family,

Let Our Lord and your beautiful daughter gently guide you through this unbelievable journey called grief. I am a mother on this journey myself and without the spirit of my handsome son and the

Grace of God I would be gone myself. Let her show you in ways that only you will recognize that she is gloriously happy and will be waiting with open arms when you will all be reunited again. Don't ever doubt her presence when you are missing her the most. God be with you.

Dear Snelgroves,



I have been praying for your entire family since hearing about the tragic loss of Victoria last week. I can't imagine what you're going through at this time. I can only say that experiencing the traumatic loss of my 21 yr old brother, Dan on Oct. 20, 2001 was the worst day of my life. He would have been 22 on Nov. 1st that year. It takes so much time...even today, I'm still trying to cope with his loss & absence from my family's life. Do everything at your own pace, don't let anyone tell you how or how long to mourn...in time, you will smile again at the thoughts & memories of your gorgeous daughter, Torie. God Bless you all, I'm so very sorry.



Your friend,

The Bootier Family

and memories were a lane

we would walk right up to heaven

and secret tears still flow

noone can ever know



but now you know you want us

to mourn for you no more

to remember all the happy times

life still has much in store



since you will never be forgotten

we pledge to you today

a hollow place within our hearts

is where you will always stay!

I don't really know what to say except that I am very sorry about the loss of Torie. I wish I could comfort you and say things will get better but it is hard to see that. One thing I do know is that after my grandfather had passed away, I had always wanted to tell him I loved him one more time. I found this book entitled "Talk to God, I'll get the message" It was about a boy whose grandfather was ill. The grandfather told the boy that when he wanted to talk to him, to tell God and God would tell the grandfather what the little boy said. I have done that numerous times when I have missed my grandfather and it keeps me bonded. It is not the same as having him here and never will be but I do get to tell him I love him. Please talk to God to tell Torie you love her. I am sure that she will get the message. You are in my heart and I will always pray for you.
