Dear Val,
There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. You were my sister and I love you. Please take care of my angel that we lost, and please watch over my son as he comes into this world. He should be here in the next month or so.
As long as we remember you, I know you'll never be far away.
With love,
Erik

I miss you baby girl! I can't believe it's been 2 years. It seems like just yesterday we were either shopping or doing something with Kj & Kileigh. They still love you more than the moon and the stars and the big dipper. Bruce just said how much he misses being your Dad. We love you, angel.
You're still my girl, always!
Love, Mom xox

Valerie & your friends & family, as a sister to a man of only 30 years on earth, I know the heartache of thoughts but no hugs to share. You are bound by love & that energy will never change so take comfort in the bonds that live well past the body across time forever ;-)

My Dearest Val,
I am missing you terribly. You are the one who knew me best growing up. My heart and soul knows that you are in a better place with God and that you are looking down from above with the love and laughter that everyone knew you for! Know that K.J. and Kiliegh will be well taken care of, for they have lots of friends and family who care for them very deeply.
I am your uncle, and you are my niece
You are my sister, and I am your brother!
I love you Val,
Erik

Angel face, I remember the day you were born and the glow from your face. You looked just like your beautiful mother.
Now that glow will light up the heavens, I'll be looking.
Love forever, Laurel

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.
