I know it has been over 20 years now, but for some reason, you popped into my head today...and my heart is warm remembering you! I remember your radiant smile and amazing laugh...and the big, refillable sip-cup you always had at your desk, taking little sips between calls. Somehow, you were always so graceful and professional about it - meanwhile, I was over there spilling coffee all over myself. I just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you, missing & remembering you-

Tyauna
I was living in Lawrence at the end of 2004, beginning of 2005 and I was telling this guy that I was seeing that I needed to get in contact with you and how great you were and everything and he told me that you passed away. I was CRUSHED. I cried myself to sleep that night. I felt so guilty that I didn't even know and wasn't there. Then yesterday at work I was thinkin about you and found this so I wanted to say what's been on my mind for all these years. You helped me through some of the roughest times in my life and for that I can never repay you but I can and will pay it forward. You have made a difference to so many people. I have a little girl now who will be three tomorrow. You would LOVE her. I wish you could meet her. I'm SOOOO sorry that we lost contact and that it's taken me this long to tell you how I feel. You will NEVER be forgotten and will ALWAYS be in my heart and I am still prayin for your family and friends that you left behind.

I got to see your Mom & Dad which was nice to give them both a hug. I am getting married in September finally the last one to do everything. So wish you could be there physcially I have peace knowing you are with me always! Nights like this I simply lay still and I can hear your giggle play over and over again in my head. You had a contageious laugh and smile. O how I miss you! Can't wait to see you again and all my loved ones up there . You know who they are tell them hello for me would you please.

Hey Pooh,
Just sitting here thinking about the past and how time goes by, but the memories are just as vivid as though it was yesterday. So much has changed, but yet it all seems so familiar. I think about you each and every day. I wonder what you're doing and how long it will be before we meet again. I am certain you are keeping smiles on many angel's faces up above as you did when you were here. I love you today and always my friend...May peace be with you until we meet again.
See you on the other side,
Jae

Hey Pooh,
I was just sitting here missing you and wanted to drop you a line. Girl, we had Dee's baby shower about a month ago and it turned out very nice (u know I was stressin)...The whole crew (even Mom) came down for the festivities, but it just wasn't the same without you. :-( I keep saying one day it will get easier to bear, but I think I'm lying to myself.
Just know your absence hurts my soul today as much as it did the day you left.
Love always and forever,
Jae

Hey Sissy,
I was just sitting here thinking about you. Man I miss you so much it don't make any sense. I wish you could see my son. He was born Jan. 24th I tried to get my Dr. to get him here on the 22nd so that day wouldn't be so hard for me but she couldn't fit me in. I love you soooo much and I miss you. Your God Daughters ask about you all the time. I don't think they really understand. I make sure they remember you though. Gotta go gettin' choked up.
Love Always,

Happy 28th Birthday! I really wish you were here to celebrate. I know you are up there partying like crazy with the Lord and telling EVERYONE that today is YOUR DAY. :-)...You are right my dear friend. Today's YOUR day and while you're celebrating up above, I'll be here wishing I was there.
Love you,

Ty,
I just wanted to let you know that although the years may pass, the void that has been left in the hearts of those that love you remains the same. I have resolved myself to know that time on this earth will NEVER heal the wound in my heart that was created when God called you home. I rejoice in knowing that through you, a piece of me has already made it through the heavenly gates...Please know I am diligently working to ensure I meet you there. - Can’t wait to see you on the other side!
Love you,
Jae

Tina & Perri Todays date is a date we will never forget,but I know she is at piece in her heavenly home with our Father.Continue to keep the faith even tho we continue to ask why at times.I continue to ask why so young,but I know God said it was time to bring her home for her to rest.I always ask why not me,I've lived my life and am ready to go,butI know God wants some young flowers in his garden also.If I see her before you,I will give her so many hugs and kisses from you.Love you both.Granny

Ty,
Just cooking today and thought
of you. Girl you remember the times I'd be so tired and you would always want me to cook you some fried chicken , well todays one of those good old fried chicken days. I was sitting on the couch and there still on my coffee table sits your senior pic and i just starred at you so hard, wondering why. You know Ty the days have gotten easier , but you will never be forgotten. You wouldn't believe the girls now the so big and pretty. Kokie reminds me so much of you with the cell phone. (she's also going over her minutes, always on the phone , and never leaves home without it.Not to mention also has to have the newest one out. I personally think she breaks just so i will buy her a new one.) Ty,i forgot to mention you, my girl is driving. You talk about a scared momma, the first time in the car with her about gave me a Heart-Attack. Your girl keayrra don't like to go anywhere if Kokie id driving , and Kasja' just like you thought she'd be when she became a teen. Kasja' is so quite, always smiling and dressed to a Tee when is steps out. (loves high heels) . Ty ,I really think that these girls think they are America's Next Top Model. Well cuz, i have to cut you short today, got to get ready for work. Ty, some people may think I'm crazy but i wish that the next time i turned the computer back on,there would be a message from you. Girl i really miss talking to you and seeing you. Until next time Love ya

Hey Pooh,
Just sitting here thinking about the fact that we didn't get to celebrate yet another birthday together. Ty, I love and miss you so much it hurts to breathe. Not a day goes by that I don't think about what life would be like if you were still here. Over three years have passed since God called on you, but I still feel like it's the first three seconds you've been gone...The pain in my heart just won't go away. I just want you to know that on your Birthday and all the days that surround it, you are truly missed.
Love you, Jae

Ty,
Hey pumpkin! Well as you know, I'm always thinking about you and of course, flooding this whole place! Just because I miss you so much and it hurts that I can't kick it with you. Isis and Alexis wear their necklace from your Mom, she always keeps us Ty'd up. Girl, I know that we would be going to that Jamie Foxx tour for sure. I am just trying to get taxes together for folks and keeping it real with these other folks we have to deal with daily, I sometime envy you being up there with Jesus and the saints, tell my twin, your Uncle Patrick hello and all the family, have you seen your grandad Frank up there? Hope so....
I know that we talk in my dreams, so what I will do is get back at you after the next dream and so on and so forth. Just because I can't reach and touch you, we can still communicate through dreams. You know I love you and the girls do too! You have no idea how happy I am to talk with you anytime I want to - maybe this will help this grieving that has never ended! love you Aunt P. I'sis and Alexis.

Hello Sunshine, Just sitting here thinking of you. Was looking threw some pictures of you. I miss you Ty miss you very very much. I wish I could hear you giggle one more time. Just to see that bright smile of yours. I know some day I will get to see you again. Love you!

Ty,
I miss you more than words can express. I swear Pooh, I think about you constantly throughout each and every day. I can't believe it's been 2 years since I've seen your smiling face (in the flesh)...I want you to know it's been torture. I still have a hard time accepting the fact that our Father needed you in His house. Admittedly, that is selfish talk, but I really just wish you were here with me. Everytime I go to 901, all our memories just hit me in the face like a brick. I've shared some of the BEST years of my life with you and your family. For that, I am forever grateful. Thanksgiving will be here next week and I would normally be looking forward to you coming home, but honestly Ty, I haven't been excited about Holidays/Birthdays since you left. In fact, I really don't get too excited about anything anymore. Now, don't get me wrong, I do have a lot to be thankful for. Life has treated me rather kindly, but nothing has meant as much or been as special as it would have been if you were here to share it with me. I will admit, regular talks with Mom and Dad help me get through this thing we call life, but sometimes it gets REALLY hard. Some days are better than others, but NO day will ever be like the days when you were here.
I LOVE AND MISS YOU! SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE.
Love always and forever,
Jae

HI Sunshine,
I just wanted you to know that I'm getting married!!! I wish you were here to share in my happiness. Ty you would love him he is so wonderful to me and Tyrell. I remember when you said you were going to be my wedding planner.. now that you're not here I have to do it myself & it's really hard. I think about you all the time and wish I could talk to you face to face. I miss you and I want your spirit to be there on my special day Nov 4th 2005.

Happy Birthday Sunshine,
I remember you used to call me your Shining Star and I would call you Sunshine:) I miss you so much it's hard for me to believe you really are not here. I look at pictures we took all the time and pray for your Mom and Dad that they are doing okay. You would not believe how tall Tyrell is now. He is in the 7th grade so of course we're dealing w/ the issues of girls. I wish you were here so I can call you when I need to here some encouraging words. I miss you so much but I know you are happy and that helps me deal w/it a little better.
Love you,

Happy 25th Birthday!!...What a wonderful day today could have been...No, WOULD have been. It's just not fair! Ty, I still feel you in my soul and hear your voice each and every day. I wake up from dreams reaching out to you. You visit me regularly, but only for a short while. Why won't you stay longer?...Or should I say, why can't I sleep longer? Life has been a tumultuous roller coaster ride since you left. I realize, nothing will ever be the same. My life will never be complete without you in it. I just miss you so very much!! I love you more than you could ever know. I long to see you on the other side...Can't wait for that day!!
Your sister & best friend,

My precious precious Ty,
I was getting ready to place a memorial in the paper for your 25th b-day, and just got mad!!!!!. Got mad thinking - what a way to celebrate my girl's b-day, and then got so sad thinking, the same way as last year- another b-day is approaching, then I get ill - thinking - your 24th and 25th b-days - in heaven - so young. But I know you have had the best celebrations ever- in Heaven- that nothing on this earth could ever compare! Still can't get a grip without your physical presence here any more. The entries placed by others in your guest book, just takes my breathe away. What a bond to break, What a life to take. I knew that my life was not going to be the same any more - that I couldn't go on normally, but did not realize the devastation your absence has caused others. Some of your friends call and come by, they are,as you know, so, trying to take care of us. Lords knows I have tried to type here, so many many times, but I can hardly breathe without you. I have you in my every thought. I feel you with me so much. I want you to know that I feel you hugging me when I am feeling so low and I heard your voice telling me "momma, don't hold your head down, hold your head up or you can't see me" so I lift me head and look towards the heavens, and for a fraction of a second - happiness comes, that is when I remember what you told Leslie in a dream, remember- you had a message for her to tell me- so I could tell others- I thank you so much for that message. Leslie told me that in her dream, you were so beautiful, a soft glowing light was around your entire body, you had such a peaceful look on your face, and of course that sly little smile, as you told her "Tell my mom that I did not want to leave her, I did not want to leave anybody, I did not want to go, But it was God's will. Tell her to tell everybody that I am ok and so happy and at peace." Now of course, I wish you would have told me yourself, but as you said, It is God's will. Ty, I am trying not to be so sad and go on with life- but I still cry everyday, but have accepted that I nor life will ever be "normal" or "the same", and I have accepted that "it does not get better"- as everyone tells me - so I am trying to find a new "normal", as it is just impossible to be "normal" or the "same" without the essence, spirit and joy that your presence provided. Baby girl, now that I have finally faced this anxiety of typing here I'll type soon. Can't wait to See Ya soon. love, your momma

Ty,
One year ago today was the day I was told of your going home. I remember the day as if it was yesterday. There is not a day that goes by that you are not on my mind! Tyauna you are missed so much! Words or tears can not express the hurt and pain that I feel. I have so many good memories of you. You are so special one of a kind! I want you to know that I pray for your Mom & Dad daily. I can not imagine the hurt that they feel. Donovan and Damion boy! Those boys really try me sometimes! But I could not imagine living with out them! Being a single Mom is beyond hard. You use to help me so much with them. If it was not for them who knows what I would be doing with my life! The paper today you had so many kind words spoken about you! You are loved by so many. I have never seen anything like what I seen today! It was amazing no you are amazing!! I love you baby girl for the rest of my life!

Ty (Pooh),
On today, I need you to know how deeply my heart yearns to see your face. I miss you more and more each and everyday. The pain is surreal, feels just like the first day (1/22/04). We’ve shared so many wonderful years together and I have so many memories in my heart…Linn, Landon, basketball, baseball, sleepovers, school rivalries (“Fisher Girls”, Atchison), clubs/bars (Scottie’s & Shooters), crushes (sweet daddy & Platypus), “The Practice” & Unsolved Mysteries, parties, graduation, Jefferson Square days, talks, Funfetti cakes and rice krispie treats, just to name a few….See, I know you were always the one with the detailed, photogenic memory ( and I relied on that), but I too remember.
Girl, this year has been a struggle & I honestly don’t know how I am going to get through the next 365 days of missing you. I know we still talk and I see you in my dreams, but that will never replace your physical presence. I miss you so very much and my life have been forever changed by losing you. I find comfort in knowing that I will always be a part of your family and that your legacy will shine on through all of us. You are always on my mind and forever in my heart.
I LOVE YOU!!
PS - I can't wait to see you on the other side!!

Those we love must someday pass beyond our present site,
Must leave us and the world we know, without their radiant light
But we know that like a candle, their lovely light will shine
To brighten up another place, more perfect– more devine
And in the realm of Heaven, where they shine so warm and bright,
Tyauna lives forever, in God’s Eternal Light.
Dear Perri, Tina, Willie Mae, Missy and Tyson,
There are no words that can make the pain go away, time can't do it only love, and you all are loved so much by so many the healing is in progress right now. Tyauna's life and home going speaks for it's self. People have lived 4 times her age and have not had half the celebraton of life she has had. It is truly painful I cry and pray for you all every night, but I know that JOY will come in the morning, in the last days I only hope that God will see fit for me to come to his right side. I am ever so thankful that I know you all and love you all, without such a wonderful, mother, father,grandmother, aunt and cousin
and all other relatives and friends
that beautiful flower could not have bloomed, understanding will come with your faith, love can't get you over it but will see you through it. You know I'm here for you for what ever you need or want
Love ya,
Jewell

Ty was a pleasure to work with. I always relied on her for answers to questions, for advise, or simply for a laugh. She'd drop whatever she was doing to help with her co-workers. In fact, we were more than co-workers to her, we were her family. I wasn't as close to Tyauna as i'd like to have been, but i do know this much - she affected the hearts of all she came across. She was one of the most beautiful people i have met and will always remember.
We miss you, Tyauna. Rest in Peace in God's arms.

Perri and Tina,
Words of consolation are often hard to find for loving friends that I have found in you. However Ty's homegoing celebration spoke the true words of a born again young lady that lived the life that spread so much love for Christ, family and friends. The consolation is knowing that she is now resting in the arms of the Lord, waiting to meet her parents, family and friends some day.
God Bless you, God loves you and so do I !!

To The Family of Tyauna Anthony,
Hold on and stay strong.
Although the times now are hard
While you grieve.
Know that God has called his child Tyauna to come home.
We all know she is in a better place with no worries about tomorrow and where the sun is always shining on her.
I believe Tyauna is at peace with God's decision.
You know, if God would've given Tyauna the choice to stay here on earth she would've said, "Mom, family, friends I love you but I'm going up with my Father in heaven, please do not worry about me for I am in a better place".
To the family:
James 4:9(NIV) Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourself before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
God Bless you All,
Carolyn

Tina and Perry,
May God be with the both of you. I cannot say I know how you feel, because I don't. The Lord has his hand in all of this. Only he knows what's best. The bible says weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. I know the sun will shine again. It's hard to understand that right now. But it will shine again. Ty is in heaven looking down on us and I know she's smiling.
Julia and Chris Seago

Tina and Perri,
I didn't know Tyauna well,but I know she was special and dear - a part of you. You and your family will be in our prayers. Remember God's love and mercy and that Tyauna has gone to a place where there will be nothing but happiness. May the Peace of the Lord be with you now and forever.

I want to first say, that Tyauna was a nice person. She always kept a smile on her face. Mr. & Mrs. Anthony my heart goes out to you. Even tho you will have sorrow, but when a love one leaves this earth we are to celebrate. Because God has taken Tyauna home. She will not have any more pain, nor worries. She will always have a special in my heart. Thank you Mr. & Mrs Anthony for sharing her with us.

Dear Perri & Tina,
I strugled with this as no words seem to be the right words. I wanted to tell you God is there for you, that we love you, that when you seem to be in your darkest hours lean on the Lord and your friends for you do have so many. I think back to when Kevin first introduced me to your family and I was amazed at the beautiful people that you are, and that reflected in your daughter. Tonight when I heard you both speak I knew everything that needed to be said because you two said it all.
God Bless you & we do love you!

To the family of Tyauna Anthony:
I started at Tmobile in August and did not get to know Tyauna well, but I do know from the little time that I had known her that she was a GREAT person. She was always smiling and always knew how to make people feel better JUST by smiling. I hope that time will ease your pain and that you will have better days ahead! She was a GREAT person and you are lucky to have such a special family member. We will SURE miss her around TMObile! Take care and God Bless you!

TYAUNA-
YOU KNOW I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE DOING THIS. EVEN THOUGH WE WERE ONLY FRIENDS FOR A SHORT TIME, I CAN HONESTLY SAY IT FELT LIKE A LIFE TIME. I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANKS FOR GIVING ME THE CHANCE TO GET TO KNOW SOMEONE AS SWEET AND CARING AS YOURSELF. I AM GLAD WE HAD A CHANCE TO CATCH UP WHEN I SEEN YOU IN OCTOBER. I'LL NEVER FORGET YOU.
LOVE,

Tyuana,
We came into high school as two complete strangers and ended it with a good friendship. You were such a caring and understanding person. That giggle you had, you could hear from a mile away. The trip to Florida with you, me, and Keima was the bomb. I am so glad we all went on that journey together. You will be missed and God bless your family!

Suffering is the means by which God brings glory to Himself and His Son. Although suffering is usually the last thing to be considered useful, it is God's most useful tool. The individuals who have allowed (or are allowing) God to walk with them through trails are the ones prepared to comfort others.
To comfort others is "to impart strength and hope" to them, by Christ's strength. The job of a comforter, is then, to move the other persons from relying on their own strength to that of Christ. When we have been used to do that, we have imparted strength.
This gives encouragement by God's grace to that person in times of adversity or difficulty. For if God sustained that individual through such trails, He will sustain us as well.
"Therefore, we do not lose heart though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."
My Love is with you always.

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Tyauna. I will carry with me the fond memories of her for the rest of my life. Perry, you were more than a softball coach, you were a supportive and positive part of our lives. I have never forgotten the influence that your entire family has had on me.I want to thank you, for being there for so many of us as we grew up. Please know that we are all here for you now should you need anything.
Tyauna:
Words cannot describe what I am feeling and thinking at the moment. You are kind and sweet..
Even though our lives took us in different directions throughout the years, I have always considered you a friend and I wish I would have kept in better touch.
Much Love and Keep Smiling from Above!

Wynona,
Try to remember that It's OK to feel what you are feeling now. You are angry, you are hurt, you are very sorrowful. Jesus wept for his friend Lazarus. He knows how you are feeling and He weeps with you. May you feel the comfort of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Tyauna,
All I can do is continue to think of your beautifull smile. And that laugh boy that laugh or giggle should I say plays again and again in my mind. You have always been a real woman in my eyes. The most caring, giving, and forgiving. You where a mother to all of our children. You always helped me in any way you could with Damion and Donovan. You are and where a wonderfull God Mother. You know Duane gave me your number at work about a month ago. He kept asking me did you call her? I kept saying no but I am I will call her. Now more than ever I wish I would have. I ask my self why God took you away from us. I know why you where too good of a person to remain on this earth. He has bigger and better plans for you. I just know that you are looking down on all of us and telling us all to keep going and be strong. Tyauna we had so many memories together. I will never ever let those go. Me and you would just chill at night and have a ball laughing crying you know doing it all!! Well I love you baby girl for life. I promise you that the boys will always know who you are as well!!
To Ty's family my thoughts and prayers our with you.

We all know that everything happens for a reason and we can’t question why they turn out this way. But we can’t help wondering why God has taken such a beautiful person away. We can’t help but wonder what the future had in store for a young woman that so many people adored. We can’t help but wonder why so many things happen that are outside of our control but we can take solace in knowing that Ty is now in God’s arms.
All I know is that the joy you have brought to so many can never be replaced and not having you in our physical presence makes our heart ache. The comfort that we have is knowing that you are in heaven smiling down but we are going to greatly miss all of the fun times when we use to play around. The words that you spoke and the kind actions you displayed will always be cherished and your memory will never fade away.
Ty, you were one of the kindest people I have ever known. You were just like one of my little sisters and have been a special part of all our lives. I thank you for leaving your footprints in my life. I love you and we will all miss you! Tina and Perry you will always be in our prayers.
Love Your Big Sis’

Aunt Tina & Uncle Perry,
In your time of sorrow and grief I would like to express my sympathy, respect to the both of you . We all know that God loved Ty (Tyuana) best , however we hated to see her go. The days we shared will never be forgotten and will always be remembered in a deep deep Cherishable way. Everyboby knows Ty was my "Girl" and my Girls comfort. (Ty always thought she know best). Aunt TIna and Uncle Perry you all know just how much Ty meant to me and my girls .We'll just have to remember the good times we shared and hold back the many, many tears. We know Ty, She's smiling down on us with that look of posterity. I can only laugh and remember the good things we did and be glad that i got to know my cousin the way i did. I know that times will be rough but we got to hand in there and Love one another and pray together.I love both of you and your all are in my prayers.

Tyauna you are my sister and my best friend. I love you so very much. We did just about everything two sisters could do together. We moved to Florida in two months and we kicked it girl! You have always been there for me through the good times and the bad you were always right there. I remember when I went into labor with my daughter we hadn't talked in about a month but you called me and we cried on the phone. Remember we called Londa and all three of us were crying until one of us got smart and had me hang up and dial 911? I am trying so hard to stay strong but at times I feel like I can't I will never know another person like you. I remember I said Ty I am getting married at the courthouse and you said no girl you need to have a real wedding and your colors are going to be lavendar and I said ok Lavendar in October and I put your song in there girl you know Differences? I could go on and on and on and talk about every single memory we have had together because they are all so dear to my heart and everyone should know how much you are loved. there wouldn't be enough time to let everyone know how much you mean to me in life and in death. I never knew someone so loving, forgiving, caring, giving, or name any other chacteristic a great person is supposed to have and that is you. Always honest and trustworthy the list is never ending. Remember when we used to worry about what we were going to do when our parents passed away? Remember we said we were going to be there for each other? The circumstances are a little different now but I am taking care of Mom and Dad because I know you would make sure my mom was ok. I promise to hold up my end of the bargain. I love you and cherish you and guess what? Mimi is constantly asking about you I know you hear her! I know you are saying Finally! I'll keep you in my heart and soul for the rest of my life. You will always be my favorite chick! And even though when we turn 35, 40 years old we won't be able to plan those trips together I will make sure I do it at least once because you know what? you were always the one to keep in touch with everybody. I sure ain't good at that but I'm going to try to be. Well I better cut this short just when I think I am ok I'm not. Just know I love you and I am never going to forget you. Your sister, Keima.

I don't even know where to begin. Ty you where and are such a beautifull person. I have been just sitting and thinking about all the memories that we had. I feel so bad. I got your phone number from Duane about a month ago and he kept asking me if I called you yet. I kept saying no but I was going two. I never did. Boy if we knew what the Lord had in store for us life would sure be different. I know I will never ever forget the times we have shared. You are and where a wonderfull God mother to the boys. I just have to tell myself over and over again that there was a reason God called you home you where just to good of a person for this world and he needed you in heaven to help him. I keep playing your laugh in my mind I can hear it and see your big smile. Tina I can not even begin to tell you how sorry I am. To the whole family my heart goes out to you. I can not even imagine the pain that you are feeling. Just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Trust in the Lord at this time and he will ease your pain.
