Charles Cerdena

Today was the last time I saw you, a year ago. We hugged in the driveway and I told you, "I love you!" Those were the last words I said to you. When I woke wednesday 9/23/09 I planned to stop and see you on my way home from work. On my way I got the call you had gone to be with the Lord. This year has been tough. I love you & I miss you so very much Charlie. My only consolation is knowing that I will see you again. Everday that your missed is one day closer to being with you again. There's so...

Hi Sweet Heart
Its been almost a year. I will NEVER stop missing you. I thank God I was the first one to hold you, and the last one to hold you. Charlie, Momma loves you so much, I would not want you back to suffer the way you did. The tears seem they will never stop. So Momma will say see you in the morning my baby boy

I never wrote you on this and i'm sorry. I really miss you. Sometimes I don't know how i'm supposed to live without you. I wish you could have been here to see my graduation, you would have been so proud. It's getting closer to the day when we lost you and I can't stop thinking about you. I hope you knew how much I loved you and still do. I'm sorry for all the times I took you for granted. I'm not mad at you. I just miss you and would give anything just to have one more hug and hear you call...

Nine months ago today my life changed FOREVER! Charlie, I missed so much of your life that I should've been there for. I only had a year with you and took that time for granted, I'm sorry. I miss you, your smile, your laughter, your humor, & just knowing you were there. Thank you for loving me, no matter what. I hope your at peace, no more pain, no more hurt, no more tears, just rest & happiness my dear big brother...I still miss you!

Today. . I celebrate You and Your life! Today God gave you life and put you here for a purpose. . and one was to be my big brother, to teach me, protect me, and love me. I am so grateful for the years He gave to me with you! I am so grateful that He gave you to me for the time He did- that you are my big brother! You were always there for me. . taught me to laugh, smile, to be strong, and that it is ok to cry too. Thank you for being my brother! And I thank Him for the precious years,...

I miss you so very much! I have tried to reason and I have tried to understand. . . there just is no reasoning nor any understanding. . nothing that takes the ache out of my heart for you. I love you.. if only I had just one more moment to tell you, to show you. I'm sorry I worried you so much. . I never meant to but know somehow that you baby sister is okay except for being without you. "There is a time for everything.. a time to be born and a time to die.. a time to cry and a time to...

i love you...i miss you!

Rose,

I am so sorry I hadn't heard about your loss until we talked on Friday. Please know I am thinking of you and your kids. If there is anything I can do let me know. My mother also sends her sympathies. Our thoughts are with you and the rest of your family.
