Gods Garden.... by unknown
God looked around his garden, and saw an empty space,
he then looked down upon the earth, and saw your darling face
he put his arms around you, and carried you to rest,
Gods garden must be beautiful, he only takes the best.

How weird that Aunt Linda was the last to sign this, you two are together now. Theres never enough time is what I am starting to learn. We always want more. Its not fair, but then again what is. Three years ago we were together, at least I got to see you one last time, and laugh with you. I just wish I could have changed it, thats all. I miss you and love you

THINKING OF YOU TODAY. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SWEETHEART. WE MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH. LOVE, AUNT LINDA

Happy Birthday Matt! You are missed and not forgotten.
Love,
Aunt Maria, Uncle Al and AJ

I changed your song. This one always makes me think of you. Hate today, you werent even here two years ago, and I often wonder how is that even possible? Anyhow, I'm thinking of you, as always. Miss you and love you

What a beautiful tribute to a wonderful person who is missed terribly by all. Anna is doing good we are taking good care of her. She is very strong. It has been tough on all of us. We know that you are in a better place! But boy do we miss you!!!! I know that you are with us in the whisper in the wind!!

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.

I've never written on something like this before. I think its too hard and brings back so many memories. Matt, I love your sister like she was my own and I hate to see her hurting and missing you so much. I know it helps when we talk about you and laugh about all the good times. I want you to know I miss you too!!!! I miss fighting with you at darts like you were my own brother. I know wherever you are your laughing saying "Tracy I can still beat you at darts". I can't believe it has...

We miss you smiley, always in our hearts and I know you're looking down on us wherever you are :( (laughing at us, I'm sure..lol). Miss you always!
