Blake Applegate

Can't believe it's been seven years. When you left us, we cried, knowing we wouldn't be able to see your beautiful smile again in our lifetime. Your mom left us not too long after you did, and it left a hole in the hearts of Shelby and your dad, who miss you terribly. There are so many things they wanted to tell you, but can't, and it breaks their hearts. We all miss you. Shelby had a baby boy who is named after you, and you would love him to pieces. He is adorable. But I think you already...

Many loved ones are thinking of you today Blake. They continue to keep you close to their hearts and to cherish your memory. You are loved by all who knew you. May God continue to hold you and bless you.

Blake I miss you more every day and your mom also. I feel so lost without the two of you. I´m sure I will be there soon. I am not very happy. I hope the two of you are doing ok and you have seen Mama Collins. I miss you all so much. Mom I would give anything to talk to you tonight. But you know I wouldn´t listen. I love you and Blake so much. Keep my place warm I don´t think it will be a lot longer. I´m really blue tonight but I´m not sick or anything just missing my family. I don´t have...

Six years ago we lost your sweet soul, and few days go by without you bringing a silent smile to my face. I miss the energy and joy you shared with so many. Your passion for art and creativity was endless, and your talent was inspiring. Miss you to the moon and back sweet Blake.

Thinking of Blake today and praying that his memory brings smiles as well as tears to the many people who loved him. Blake rests in God's arms and is remembered as a kind, sweet and unique young man who will forever live in our hearts. God bless you Blake.

My sweet nephew...it has been almost three years, but your smile is still in my heart. You left us too soon, as you had so many unfinished memories to make with those who loved you. We want you back, but know it will never be. In our hearts, you are always beside us, laughing and smiling that silly grin of yours that makes you so unique. I wish you were here to give your sister, mom and dad a big hug, because they need that so bad right now.

Sitting in my car at the tracks in LaGrange, watching the train roll by, when I see brightly painted graffiti on most of the train cars. I can't help but smile, and wonder if Blake ever got to paint a moving canvas. Something tells me he has, and his legacy travels the states of America. That's a memory I'll hold onto forever!

Kim,
My heart and thoughts are with you!! Nothing I can say at this time will ease your pain, but if you ever feel like talking I would be honored to share your pain, love and thoughts.
