Shawn Franklin Choate

Tonight, I thought of you. Tonight, my heart broke all over again and I can't sleep. April 4 is forever burned into my memories and my soul. My big brother and my partner in crime, always up for any crazy adventure, no matter how ridiculous. I wish I had words to explain how hard it's been...losing you was the worst thing ever but you taught me a valuable lesson of how to survive and it has been something I've leaned on so much since dad, my mom, grandpa, and so many of our friends are no...

For My Big Brother
You showed me a lot of things,
I learned a lot I didn't know,
But you forgot to teach me one last thing
How to let you go,
I know you didn't mean to leave me,
Sometimes we have no choice,
I miss being your little sister,
Hearing my name called by your voice,
I wish I got to say "I Love You"
Before you were giving to the sky,
If god could grant me one last wish 
I'd ask to say "Goodbye"
You always meant a lot...

We think of everything day it has seven years now. I miss your hugs, we are thinking if u.

I look at poeple to see of you look like someone on this earth but, nobody looks like you. I try not to cry so much but, I do. A lot of poeple don't see it but my heart has been rip apart. There is no one like you. You are my one and only son like you.

I still think of you all the time and it sucks that you're not with us anymore.

we love you always we miss your hugs and laughter always mom

Just visited you. It was so peaceful but sad remembering that this was the day we lost your voice and laughter. Hard to believe it has been 6 years. you are still greatly loved.

Shawn, I still think of you and miss you every day. You are missed so much by so many.
