I was so sorry to hear of your loss. My heart goes out to you and your family. I did not know Lindsay but I can see she was such a beautiful and accomplished young woman. Her passing is such a tragedy. May God grant you comfort.

Charles and Lisa,
My prayers are ongoing for you both, praying God will provide you strength and peace. I know Lindsay would want you both to endure and continue on with life. May God's peace reign in your minds and hearts, and tomorrow bring new hope.

Lisa,
I've tried hard to come up with something to say that will ease your pain, if only for a minute. I know that time will pass, and things will become a little easier. Everytime I use that coffee mug Lindsay brought back from Australia I will think about that young sweet girl sitting in the waiting room reading and doing her homework. That is how I will always think of her. I know Lindsay is happy and safe, so my prayers will be for you and the others that will miss her. I pray that God will help you through this difficult time. I'm here for you if you need anything.

Please just remember that we are all praying for you and asking God to help you get through this painful time. If there is anything we can do for you, please let us know. I will always remember Lindsay as the Beautiful Girl that she was.

As the tears flow as I write this, know that the Rister family is broken hearted over this tragedy. Lindsay was such a special young lady. As a mother of a 21 year old daughter at A&M as well, I shall never drive into College Station again without thinking of Lindsay and the shining Christian example she portrayed. We know that she is in Heaven and we will see her again one day. Your lives will never be the same but be comforted that so many people will remember her forever. Aggie Muster will now mean even more. Please let me know if I can help in anyway.

My prayers go out to you. Lindsay was a very beautiful person inside and out. I also lost my 22 year old /A&M student who was killed by a drunk driver in 2005. If you at some point need to speak to someone who has been in your shoes, please feel free to call me. God Bless.

Dear Charles and Lisa,
I want to thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to know Lindsay and be a part of her life. I will always cherish the time I spent taking care of her when she was little. She acted like an angel then, looked like an angel in our wedding and will now be an angel watching over us all. I love you both! You will remain in my thoughts and prayers.

Love,
"Bicki"

Dearest Lisa and Charles,
My heart broke for you today when I heard the news about Lindsay. Where does one find words that will comfort a parent grieving for the loss of a child? There is nothing I can say or write that will make your grieving any less painful. I believe our children truly are gifts from God and that we all belong to Him. How wonderful it was to have Lindsay in our lives for as long as we did. We have beautiful memories of her to cherish. God chose you to raise Lindsay to walk with him and what a terrific job you did for Him. I'm sorry that I won't be able to be with you in person tomorrow; but please know that I am with you in Spirit. You are in my prayers.

I feel this is so beautiful and i really believe that lindsey would Say this to her family and friends i hope will give a lot of comfort: To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Charles and Lisa,
As I told you by phone today, Linda and I are grieving with you and praying for you. Lindsay was such a mature and remarkable child that I still remember her baptism. I have heard from many of how her character, integrity and Christian walk continued throughout her short but extremely full life. She blessed us all.
