Brian Keith Hartwig

Daddy,
I miss you. I remember last year when mom came up to out of no where and said i was moving in with you just two days before your birthday. You told me that was one of the best presents that you could of gotten. You were the only one that really knew what i was in when i moved in. and you took me anyways. I know i wasnt the best daughter and we had are fights but we got along really well. you were my father and my best friend. no one knows just how much it hurt to lose you i lost...

I was a sophomore at Shadow Mountain when you asked me to go steady. That romance lasted a whole 2 weeks, but the friendship continued for years. You, Buddy and I were the three musketeers, hanging out at DJ's, the mud bogs and the midnight movies. I twirled the flag in the marching band and you sat through many football game halftime shows for me.

We had some close calls like the night when Buddy nearly drove his truck off a cliff and we all had to climb out ever so carefully...

What on earth do I say?...
I just keep stalking your house...
Maybe, just maybe you'll be out there working on your truck. Day after day, I drive by and nothing. WE GOTTA MOVE!!!
I can't believe you're really gone, I refuse to delete you from my address book or the speed dail on my phone. I just want to tell you how much you mean to me. You've touched my life, Touched My Whole Family's Lives!!!
YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

"Hey y'all! Watch This!!!"

Brian,

I feel so blessed that on this journey to a "new way of life" God's plan was for our paths to cross. Thank you for being the kindest person that I have ever met....never juding anyone, always willing to help anybody and a never-ending postive attitude. I will keep those words you always spoke, "It's all good", in my heart forever. I miss you more than I ever thought possible.

Love,
Chris

I thank God for having had the opportunity to know Brian. He has a beatiful soul and I am sure that God will have him working on some very special cases. Brian your journey has not ended it has only begun. I look forward to seeing you again. (it won't be during my 4th step though)"inside joke". Thank you for sharing your life with us. And say hi to Bill and Bob for us.

Warm regards,
Yvonne C. Weithaus

Death does hide,
But not divide;
You are with Christ, and Christ with...

Mr. Brian....

I still miss you as if it were just yesterday.

I cannot comprehend that the future does not hold you as a part of my life,
Robert's life and Ramses upcoming years.

I wasn't ready! We weren't ready!


My commitment to you is what you asked of me only days before you left...."Relax and Cut Him Some Slack!".


Thank you for being all that you were!
