Happy birthday to you Todd. I miss you so much and still Makes me cry. It's been so long that I've been on here to write to you. And I'm sorry. I think of you so often and mom too. How she misses your visits to her and having a beer with her. I have something for you for the sight of the accident. I've had it for a few months but just can't get my self to go there. I relive that horrible day. Someday I'll see you again and we will have so much to talk about . Until then my dear dear friend, say hi to Chad for me.

SON; I can't beleive that it has been 6 years since we lost you. There isn't a day that goes by that some one remembers somthing funny. Nancy sent a card & Gloria called as she was on the way to visit you. It seems it is getting more difficult to write as I am still in denial. I love you my precious son. Good night Your loving mom

My loving son: I missed writing to you on your birthday. I did come to visit with you and left a birthday card and balloons. Then we went to the accident sight and put balloons there. Last week we put a christmas tree and decorations at both places. We also have a memory tree in the family room. All of the family signed a christmas ball and we put it on the tree. This is such a hard time of the year for all of us. I cried at the cemetary and still wondering how this could be. Taking my son away. The family went to Rhondas on Thanksgiving and they will be here for Christmas. We all love you and miss you. Grandma is watching over you and I know you are doing the same to her. Love always. Rest in peace Love Mom

Happy 42nd Birthday Honey... I feel you with me each and every day my Love. Every day, Every Hour, Every Minute... We will be together again, I Love Only You Forever.

August 19, 2013

SON: No I didn't forget about you. I spent an hour telling you about your family. I don't know if I goofed or what ever happened for it to not go in. Yes, I went to the accident sight and put a new BLACK fence in. All new flowers and wreaths. Then we went to the cemetary. I wasn't prepared to change the flowers as I had recently done that. I need to come back and change them as they have faded. The main reason to go was to visit you and let you know that we all love and miss you. Your family are fine , but miss you. I promise to write you more, but it's so hard to let go. I feel that you never left and it's just a bad dream. Well son, enough said. I love you. Rest in peace. Love Mom

Tammy Leigh Barnes

August 17, 2013

It's been 5 years since your passing and not a day goes by that you aren't forever in our hearts and thoughts. Mom keeps up the memorial at the accident site making sure that everyone who passes it stops and thinks about the young man whose life was taken much too soon and the tragic accident that should never have happened. Although I know I'll see you again someday in heaven, often I feel like your right here beside me. I love you Todd.

August 15, 2013

Hi Baby, 5 LONG years without you. You still are everyday in my thoughts and prayers. I know that you are watching over all of us. Probably wishing we'd all just go on with our lives but it's not the same nor will it ever be. I miss you so much honey but we will be together again. Me, Your Mom, Sisters, Nieces and nephews and everyone who loved you will be together one day. Raven and Copper too. All my LOVE Baby, Sad today honey because you had to say Goodbye, but know I'll see you Again. Love, Your Forever Wife. Nancy

Wow, Todd was born the same year as my son! Too young to die, that's for sure. I don't know what I would do, if I lost him. You can rest assured that he's looking down from Heaven, and keeping an eye on you all. You don't know me, but your post touched my heart. Talking and/or writing to him can really help in the healing process. You know he hears you. You'll see "signs", watch for them. RIP, Todd.

SON: It has been 5 years ago today ssince you have been gone. I am so ashamed that I havn't written in the guest book for along time. As the days months and years go by, it seems it's just as hard knowing your not here with us. 2 days ago Roger and I went to the accident sight and put a new (BLACK) fence up with flowers. Yesterday, we went to the cemetary to visit you. I wasn't prepared to change the flower as I had just done that afew months ago, but they had faded, so I will be back real soon. Now we start with family: Rhonda and Mousa found a beautiful home in Scottsdale, but plan to wait a year to move in. I see Vicki once a month. Wish I could get over there more often. Tammy Has a new job at Everest Collage. Sierra just accepted a new job at Banner Heart hospital as a CNA. Roger had a mild stroke and still having problems with speech and remembering. Then there is your mom: I had a anyrsm that was ready to pop, but got it in time.Had foot surgery. We miss RAVEN so much. We ended up getting a labadoodle male named Charley. Then went out and got a female Maggie. They had puppies, We sold all but one which we kept. Marley,he is so feisty. Does not like the pool, but will lay in the sprinklers. Maggie has to swim with us. As soon as we are in the pool, she jumps right in. No one has been signing the guest book. Missing Randys poems. I had the guest book printed some time ago and I love going back and reading all the nice things that your friends and family have written. Well SON, I will close for now. Rest in peace. We all miss you and Love you always. Your mom

SON; TODAY YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN 41. WE CHANGED OUT THE FLOWERS AT THE ACCIDENT SIGHT AND NOW YOU HAVE CHRISTMAS. THIS MORNING WE WENT TO THE CEMETARY AND LEFT YOU A LITTLE STUFFED DOG FROM DAKOTA. ALSO A BIRTHDAY CARD FROM YOUR FAMILY. LAST WEEK WE PUT CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS ON AS WELL AS GRANDMA. I SEEM TO BE HAVING A TOUGH TIME GETTING IN THE MOOD THIS YEAR, BUT I NEED TO DO IT FOR THE REST OF THE FAMILY. WE PICKED UP VICKI THIS MORNING AND TOOK HER TO THE CASINO. THEN TO GET HER GROCERYS. SHE LOOKS FORWARD TO THIS EVERY MONTH. IT'S BEEN AWHILE SINCE I HAVE WRITTEN IN THE LEGACY, BUT PLAN TO DO BETTER AND YOU WILL BE HEARING FROM ME REAL SOON. REST IN PEACE MY LOVING SON

August 16, 2012

SON: I can't believe you have been gone 4 yrs. now. Still there isn't a day that goes by that we arn't thinking about you. Roger and I went to the accident sight yesterday. We cleared off the ground to make it even. When ever we get a rain, we lose some of the dirt. We took off the old flowers and put new on. Then we went to Frys and picked up a heelium balloon. Put son and the date along with some hearts that Roger put on. All the wild sunflowers have been plowed away, so we went to Walgreens and bought a package of sunflower seeds. Came back with the balloon and seeds. I didn't get a chance to visit you as Tammy had my car this past week. Everyone here are just fine. Our labradoodles are in the pool more than we are. There isn't a day that we don't think of Raven. He was the best dog we have ever had. Well, my son, it is getting late and I am getting tired, so I will say good night my loving son. Love you and miss you Loving you always your mother

My dearest son: It has been so long since I have talked to you. I will bring you up to date on what is happening. Gloria and Gary went to visit you afew weeks ago. She has been so good about visiting you. Nancy and Summer were here for aweek as Faylon had her 4th baby. I bet your thinking WOW. We did get to visit. It just happened it was on the 4th of July and Tammy, Sierra & Dakota were here. So they all went swimming. Faylons children wern't preparred to go swimming, so they went in with their clothes on. Nothing more with Vicki, she is living the same life as she has for many years. I know you always worried about her. Tiffany had another little girl (Athena) so now she has 2 girls and a boy. Rhonda is on another vacation. Samia and Kamal are getting so big. Well, your mom said I would never get another dog. Roger and Tammy went and got me a labadoodle. I had seen a black one and that really what I wanted. Charley is apricott and obnoxious. Loves the pool. A month later we went and got a black little girl Maggie. She is the cutest puppy and she is a swimmer. I will say this, my heart is still with Raven. No dog can ever replace him. I miss him so much. I am sure by now Raven is with you and the two of you are resting. I love you both and I promise to not wait so long to write you. I miss you my most loved son Your mom

Hi Love, I want to thank-you for yesterday. As you know Dillon and Toni had their beautiful baby girl. Complications followed, she was born the 11th of April and is still in intensive care. I was crying so hard I couldn't barely drive. I thought that I don't think I've ever felt so alone in all my life... I picked up my phone and told my voice dial to call Aunty Char....And my phone said calling...Todd Haney! I knew I wasen't alone and that you were with me, I love you Honey. Please watch over Baby "Layla" xoxo Nancy

SON; It has been such along time since I have written to you. Yesterday was your 40th birthday. I thought about you all day as I do every day. Roger put a birthday balloon up on your memorial. Tammy put one at the cemetary. So you know that you are in our thoughts. I have put off telling you that we had to put RAVEN to sleep a month ago. I can't even begin to tellyou how much we loved him.I picked up a memorial for him also. Everyone seems to think I should get another dog. There is no dog that could ever replace him.I would lay on the floor with him and he would lay right next to me always trying to get as close to me as possible. We ended up getting 3 bunnies. Mistake.... They chew everything that is green. Tammy and Sierra started this by having 2. Rhonda follows with a dwarf and went out yesterday to get her 2nd one. WOW. Well my precious son I will close for now. Always thinking of you and missing you so much. With so much love Your mother

GOOD MORNING SON; Going to be another hot day. Well I have no excuses for not writing to you latly. Roger just put Raven in the truck and they are off to the doggie park. It is quite a trip, but Roger has been promising to take him there. Today he stood by the garage door knowing he was going some place special. The park has everything a dog could want. Man made lake, place to wash the dogs off. I was going to go, but decided to stay home. Rhonda and family are leaving for a 2 week vacation. They are going to New York, Canada and Kalamazoo. She wants the kids to see the farm. I think they may stop by Nob Hill seeing it's on the way. Tiffany just had her 3rd baby. (Athena) You would have loved her 1st one. Isabella. She is beautiful and little Gilbert is a cutie. Dakota is in kindergarten. How time flies. We still take Vicki to the grocery store for her monthly grocerys. We have been taking her to the casino before getting her grocerys. It's the only thing she looks forward to. Last month she won $300.00 and was so excited. Tammy is doing fine. Going to Sedona for a weekend retreat with the girls. Last week I went to the accident sight and put fall flowers on and a new set of lights. We also went to the cemetary and put flowers on for you and grandma. Well my dear sweet son, I will let you rest in peace. We all miss you and love you with all our hearts. Love Mom

Honey, My thoughts are still with you everyday...I know now that the reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected. Maybe always have been and will be. Maybe we've lived a thousand lives before this one and in each of them we found each other. And maybe each time, we've been forced apart for the same reasons. That means this good-bye is both a good-bye for the past ten thousand years and a prelude to what will come. When I look at you, I see your beauty and your grace and know that they have grown stronger with each life you have lived. And I know that I have spent every life before this one searching for you. Not someone like you, but you, for your soul and mine must always come together. And then, for a reason neither of us understands, we've been forced to say good-bye. I would love to tell you that everything will work out for us,and I promise to do all I can to make sure it does. I will see you again in another life. We will find each other again, and maybe the stars will have changed and we will not only love each other at that time, but for all the times we've had before. I love you sweetheart, ALWAYS

SON: Here we are in the middle of June and already it's in the triple digits. We had a highway clean up yesterday. We started at 7:00 A.M. We were so fortunate to have the cub scouts, scout master, parents in helping us. The sheriffs posse was there for traffic control. We didn't include family this time as we had it pretty well covered. We ended up with 24 bags of trash. We ended up only doing one side as the grader took care of the other side. Another cleanup will be in November which the scouts plan to do and would like to include family as well. August 14th will be shy of 1 day of the 3 year mark since we lost you. I am planning a get together at the house with family and friends in rememberance. I can hear you now ( MOM DON'T) Raven has been sick and we took him to the vet and had blood work done. Put him on antibiotics and doing better. Now he is hobbling with a sore foot. We are taking care of that also. He is getting on in age and we have to expect this. Love him dearly. Rhonda and family are on a month long vacation. New york, Florida and Barcelona. Tammy and Sierra have moved. Sierra into an apt and Tammy with Paul. Vicki is doing her best and may be relocating (bet your glad to hear that) Nancy was here and we got invited to Faylons for a cook out. Met her brother and wife from Washington D.C. Nice people. Glad we went. Well SON can't think of anything else. We all miss you and love you. Rest in peace. MOM

May 2, 2011

SON: I was just thinking about you as I do everyday (almost) every moment. I come to visit you often. I was there afew weeks ago with Tammy and Rhonda. I tried to pick a plot next to you so that I could watch over you. Unfortuntly, there wasn't anything, so I chose a couple of plots just up from you (guess you will be watching over me son. Vick is doing great and Rhonda and family are doing fine also. Tammy will be moving in with her boyfriend (no apt., a real house) Sierra is moving into her own apt. and is excited. Roger is still taking Raven out for his morning walk. We know he is getting on in age. When they get back, he just wants to sleep. He has been such a blessing to us. We love him. Alot of times, I like to get down on the floor with him. He usually backs up to me as he wants that closness. I talk to him alot about you and he acts like he knows exactly what I'm saying. So glad that Alana wrote to you. Gloria (such a caring and thoughtful person) love her like a daughter. Well, my precious son, time to go. Rest in peace. We all love you and miss you Mom

Hey there sweet dear Todd, I think of you daily and miss you voice. I have visited you and been to the accident site often. Wishing so badly I could see you. I have had so many things going on which I know you are aware of them. Havent talked to your family much we like to play phone tag at times. Trying to deal with my fathers illness and life itself is overwhelming at times. It does give me comfort knowing you are watching from above keeping us all safe and ok. I miss you Todd and cant wait to see you again. Until then my dear sweet friend, I love you...

LETTER FROM HEAVEN
TO ALL MY LOVED ONES
AND FRIENDS

TO MY DEAREST FAMILY AND FRIENDS.....
THERE'S SOME THINGS I'D LIKE TO SAY, BUT FIRST OF ALL, TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE ARRIEVED OKAY.

I'M WRITING THIS FROM HEAVEN. HERE I DWELL WITH GOD ABOVE, WHERE THERE'S NO MORE TEARS OF SADDNESS... THERE IS JUST ETERNAL LOVE.

PLEASE DO NOT BE UNHAPPY JUST BECAUSE I'M OUT OF SIGHT: REMEMBER THAT I AM WITH YOU EVERY MORNING, NOON AND NIGHT.

THE DAY I HAD TO LEAVE YOU WHEN MY LIFE ON EARTH WAS THROUGH, GOD PICKED ME UP AND HUGGED ME AND SAID " I WELCOME YOU!"

"ITS 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, AS 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. WHEN YOU LIE IN BED AT NIGHT, WITH THE DAYS 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 DOSE HELP TO RELIEVE 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 REALLY WOULD'NT UNDERSTAND. THERE IS ONE THING IS FOR CERTAIN, ALTHOUGH MY LIFE ON EARTH IS OVER, 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 TOGETHEER WE CAN DO IT BY JUST TAKING ONE DAY AT A TIME.

IT WAS ALWAYS MY PHILOSOPHY AND I'D LIKE IT TO BE FOR YOU TOO, THAT AS YOU GIVE UNTO THE WORLD, THE WORLD WILL GIVE BACK TO YOU.

FOR NOW I AM CONTENTED, THAT MY LIFE WAS WORTHWHILE: KNOWING AS I PASSED ALONG THE WAY, I WAS ABLE TO MAKE SOMEBODY SMILE, (LAUGH) THANK YOU TODD

WHEN YOUR 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 ITS TIME FOR YOU TO GO FROM THAT BODY TO BE FREE, REMEMBER THAT YOU'RE NOT GOING YOU'RE COMING HERE TO ME. GOD BLESS

I never knew Todd, but I feel so sad every time I pass the sign on Bella Vista. I drive past there twice a day and I can tell how much you all loved him, every holiday it is decorated differently. Sometimes we are all in such a hurry that we never notice the markings on the side of the road but seeing Todds makes me more aware of all the others I have passed. I am sorry for your loss and I hope you find comfort in the vigil you keep for him.

Hey Baby, I saw you in my dreams and I saw you in-between. In-between my breaths, In-between my running through the cold to work you yelled at me through a big Black bird and I smiled and said hello baby. You are never far from me and I not from You. I miss Slideing down the hill doing a triple backward sandwich warm in the tummy with Jack Daniels haha. Sleep with Angels till I sleep with you again... I Love You Baby and I know that you are Loving and looking out for me toooo. Love Yours Forever.

MOM HANEY

December 10, 2010

SON; TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY and we all know how you never wanted us to make a big deal of them. I remember asking you to meet me at Applebee's for a birthday dinner and you said there better not be a bunch of people there. I said no, just you and me. Well, I lied. You walked in and your whole family was sitting at a table. You were so embarrassed. Infact, you were ready to leave. Roger and I placed 3 helium balloons at the accident sight and on the highway signs. Vicki called this morning as she was thinking about you and Tammy wished you a happy birthday. Rhonda tried to get on legacy this morning and she couldn't get on. We left for the day yesterday and I made sure Raven had plenty of food. When we got home, he hadn't touched it. Once we petted him, he gobbled it down. I think he misses you so much and thinks we are going to leave him. After that he was fine. He's at 155 lbs, so I don't think missing a meal or two would hurt. I am going to close for now and let you rest in peace. WE ALL LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH......... HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON..............LOVE YOU YOUR MOM

November 25, 2010

SON: Another holiday without you. As each holiday comes and goes, it dosn't seem to be an easier not having you with us. I am trying so hard for the sake of family to enjoy the time we are spending together. But there is that special somone that isn't with us (MY LOVING SON) and that makes it difficult. I will be coming to visit you in a few days as I have a christmas tree for you and grandma and grandpa. Then within the next week or so a new monument will be placed at the accident sight along with flowers and wreath. I (we) think of you all the time. Raven gained another 5 lbs. I lay on the floor with him alot. He likes to get as close to me as possible. I talk to him alot and I know he is feeling the same lonleyness that the rest of the family is feeling. Roger still takes him for his walks everyday and whenever Roger goes to the store, he goes with him. Well son, I need to get ready to go to Rhonda's for dinner. WE ALL LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU. got a nice thanksgiving card from Gloria. She is such a caring person REST WELL MY SON YOUR LOVING MOTHER

Paul (your sisters) friend just built a five foot cast iron cross for the accident sight. He is waiting for your name to be put on. He is going to concrete it in the dirt. I am so glad that both Nancy and Gloria are writing in the legacy. I am hoping that Randy will have another poem for you soon. Hoping to hear from everyone as I would like to have book published for Christmas. We all love you SON and there isn't aday or moment that your not in our thoughts.

Todd, it's hard to believe it's been just over two years now since you were tragically taken from us. Sierra and Dakota planted sunflowers directly outside my bedroom window and their growing big and beautiful in your honor. I miss you with every passing day -- you're always in my thoughts. Love you ~ Leigh (sis)

SON: It's been over two years since you left us and still not aday goes by that I don't cry and ask why. The roadside memorial has been changed with new flowers, a picture of you and raven. The field is full of sunflowers which surrounds the memorial. Raven is doing great. Yesterday, Roger had to get an oil change and fill the water jugs so Raven went along for the ride. With the little truck, he takes up most of the seat. At night he comes into my bedroom and lays right beside my bed. Thats where he stays until I get up in the morning. I know you have him watching over me as I am with him. I must close for now as I am meeting Rhonda this morning. The rest of the family are well and missing you my loving son. With so much love, your mom

SON: Last Sunday your family met at the accident sight. We then started the 2 mile highway cleanup. It was scorching hot even at 10:30. I had everyone over for pizza and swimming. We had a wonderful surprise. Todd Matthews (your best friend) Nicole and baby Gunnar Haney Matthews met up with us and came to the house also. Gunnar is now 2 yrs old and the first time that we all got to see him. Todd has your picture on the mantel and tells Gunnar, this is your uncle. Todd has so many true feelings that when he saw several of your things at the house, he would cry. He truly was a good friend. Gunnar is a chubby little blue eyed, blond and a sweetie. Just wished you could have met him. I know you liked little girls. Well my precious SON, I will say I LOVE YOU, rest in peace.. Raven is doing great. LOVE YOUR MOM

So far away from where you are
These miles have torn us worlds apart
And I miss you Yeah, I miss you
So far away from where you are
Standing underneath the stars
And I wish you were here

I miss the years that were erased
I miss all the little things I never thought that theyd mean everything to me
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

I feel the beating of your heart
I see the shadows of your face
Just know that wherever you are
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

I miss the years that were erased
I miss all the little things
I never thought that theyd mean everything to me
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

So far away from where you are
These miles have torn us worlds apart
And I miss you
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

SON: It's been awhile since I last talked to you. Now just alittle bit about your family. Rhonda and family are doing just great. Samia just got a baby grand piano and wow she can really good. I bought a puppy and had it for a week. Raven did not like it at all. So, Rhonda bought it from me. Our priority is RAVEN. He is such a wonderful dog. Roger still takes him out every day for his walk. Roger always says COME ON RAVEN LET'S GO TO THE PARK and immediatly he is jumping up and down so excited. Kris is graduating from Jr. high this Wednesday (which Roger and I will be going) Plan to pick up Tiffany and her 2 children also. Tammy, Sierra and Dakota are moving to Queen Creek. Ironically, it's at the corner where the accident happened. At first it bothered me and it still does whenever I go past the accident sight. I miss you so much and I honestly have to say that there isn't a day that goes by that I don't cry. Friends of ours went on a motorcycle trip yesterday AWARENESS FOR MOTORCYCLE RIDERS. tHERE RIDE WAS IN YOUR MEMORY. just to let you know SON, we all love you and miss you. Love Mom

Thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part. God has you in His keeping, I have you in my heart.

SON I was just thinking about you this morning as I do every morning and throughout the day. Last week Roger and I took the valentine decorations off the accident sight and replaced them with spring flowers. While we were there, a lady pulled up and came over to us and we talked. She was very spiritual and asked if we could pray. We held hands and then said she sent you to be with the angels. After doing alot of crying, I felt she helped me through another day. The following day I went to visit you and again changing the flowers. I talked to you and still keep asking why and how this could ever happen to such a wonderful and loving son. Onto somthing else. Your cousin James got married afew weeks ago. Rhonda just had surgery and doing ok. Tammy and Vicki are ok also. I talked to Alona afew weeks ago and Gloria sends me cards and gifts. She is so thoughtful and caring. Seth and Faylon moved back to Queen Creek. Nancy sent me letter with an update. Now for your dog. Roger is still taking him for a walk every day. He's getting to be a big boy. Acually, he's overweight. Randy is still writing poems and I can't thank him enough for doing that. Well SON I will close for now and will be talking to you soon. I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART AND MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY YOUR LOVING MOM

February 25, 2010

Grief be mine, I ask you so,
If not for you, I wouldn't know,
How life once was and then be still,
How so precious, that death do steal.
Because that grief, won't go away,
Learn to let it have its way.
The link to love, a precious one,
Is met with grief and still not done.
The days do come, and nights do go,
Grief will stay as time is so.
And so a loved one passes on,
And grief comes in and carries on.
Does grief get better, I will ask,
It's hard to say, while at its task.
There is grief to help us cope,
There is God to give us hope.
Grief will surely go away,
On that glorious heaven's day.
But while its here, there's just one thing,
Pray our Lord, for peace he'll bring.

Your in my heart filling my days, with everything beautiful, touching my life with sweet tenderness. Hardly a moment passes that I am not thinking of you--holding you close, kissing your picture in secret and sending you all my Love. The very thought of you soothes my soul and reminds me of all I need in this world waits for me at the end of my days. It's in these perfect moments, when the world slips away from us in the hush, that I am so grateful to have had you in my life "for loveing me so sweetly, so giving so completely, I will hold you here in my heart forever.

I miss You My Friend. I laughed with You more than any friend I have ever had. The grin on Your face alone would crack Me up every time.

I received some photos and mementos from Your Mom (Thank You Darlene) and it was great to have some new pictures of You. I'm sure Your somewhere cracking jokes right now as You always were.

I will miss You dearly My friend until the day We meet again.

Do not stand at My grave and weep.
I am not here. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints of snow.
I am sunshine on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When You waken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at My grave and cry.
I am not here I did not die.

Hi my friend. Wanted to say hello and tell you how much I miss you. Last night was a bad night for me. Could not sleep and you were on my mind. I guess the holidays and your birthday bring everything to the surface again. I miss you dearly and wish so badly I could see you. I went and saw your mom and sisters on your birthday. I was late getting there but they all were so sweet and wait for me. Cody has had some issues otherwise I would never make them wait. We all miss you dearly and I have been talking to Scott on facebook.. He misses you so much and recently posted a picture of the two of you back in the day. Made me smile and made me sad. Those all are just memories and wish I had more pictures of you. I look at your picture everyday when I am in my kitchen.

I miss my friend and think of you all the time.
Love ya

SON: Yesterday was Christmas. Another sad holiday without you. Christmas eve, we all were at Rhonda's. Then Christmas day, Roger and I went over to Candie's and Joe's. On the way back, we stopped and I visited you. I had to wish you a Merry Christmas and of course there many tears to show how much you are loved and missed. We are taking good care of Raven. We took him to the pet motel at Petsmart for a couple of says as it was a busy time and we did.t want to leave him alone. Right now he is so happy he is home. It takes aday for him to get over his poutiness. The girls have been keeping upwhere you left off buying me my cherubs. They said they will continue to do it as they know this meant so much to you. I will close for now my precious, most loving son. LOVE, YOUR MOM

December 16, 2009

Hi Sweetheart, I know you saw me trying to get into this stupid computer to send you a message at 12:01 Dec 10th haha guess I'll say (maybe) I'm stupid at this... whatever I was waiting for someone else to send on and then I could tie into it from there. Anyway, got a Christmas card from Mom today and plan on writing to her right away. Spent your Birthday night with your picture Tayla and Summer. Yesterday when I was moving my things into Dillons room we ran into pictures of you and he told me how much he missed you too. The night Mom called and told me you passed I was so upset Dillon and Dallas came over right away (Falynn was with me) We all miss you soooo much baby---but you already know that. you my Love are forever.... Love Me

SON: I didn't forget that your birthday was December 10th. Rhonda, Tammy and I came to visit you. We brought a birthday balloon and a card. Then we met Alona for lunch. Everyone will be going to Rhonds's for Christmas. Nothing is the same without you. We miss you so much. There's not aday goes by that I don't feel the pain and emptiness in my heart. I love you my son. Mom

A VOID
What can fill that empty space
That seems a hollow pit.
When something there is missing
And nothing seems to fit.
How do you fill the emptiness
And satisfy the inner hunger;
When all in life has left you starved
But no where's found the answer.
Outside yourself, you start to look
But still there stands the void.
The little things you used to love,
No longer seen enjoyed.
Don't talk to me of Jesus,
For I'm his and he is mine,
but even though I know him;
I'm still not feeling fine.
Tomorrow, I'll go searching,
And tell you what I find
But if my search should prove in vain;
It will have satisfied my mind.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MR HANEY THINKEN ABOUT YOU RUN WITH THE ANGELS GLORIA

November 26, 2009

SON: This was our second Thanksgiving without you. I had the whole family here for dinner. I guess as I get older, it's harder on me to fix a big meal, entertain and deal with all the grand kids. I love all of them and for the most part, they were good. OH, Dakota fell into the 60 degree pool. He's fine. Gloria called the other day and sent me a Thanksgiving card. She is such a wonderful person. We created another xmas tree for the accident sight. Everyone signed a xmas ball for the tree. Roger and I will be going to the accident sight and putting the tree up. We then will come to your resting place and put another tree there. Tammy plans to visit you on your birthday. I am still having a very difficult time accepting the fact that you are not with us. As I write this, you are looking at me with that silly grin. I have your oil painting next to the desk. I look at it everynight still disbeleiving that you are no longer with us. We took Raven to Petsmart Motel afew days ago as we didn't want the kids letting him out. We always have him bathed and groomed. They just love him there. However, he won't eat while there and it takes aday for him to get over us taking him there. We are so happy that he is part of our family. Well Son, I am tired and need sleep badly. I LOVE YOU MOM

Your the one that came outside to talk to me and made feel wanted. I miss you more than words could ever say. I have your pictures on one whole wall. I'm sorry I know you hate having your picture taken,but it helps me out when I can look at you on my wall. Your the brother a sister could ever wish for. You were a great uncle. You helped me out alot with Tiffany and Matt when they were little especially when they had no dad to turn to. Mom misses you awhole bunch. She's really depressed without you. Raven is well taken care of and is loved by everyone. Raven loves mom. Raven misses you. Mom say's when a motorcycle goes by Raven barks thinking it's you. I love you alot. Give dad, grandma and grandpa a hug.. Love Sister and kids

November 2, 2009

SON It's been quite awhile since I have talked to you. We had Raven ar Petsmart Hotel the other day. We take him whenever we're going away. This time because of holloween. We did'nt know how he would do with kids. He is always glad to see us. He grabbed an $8.00 squeeky Santa off the display case, which Roger ended up having to pay for. But that's alright. We are spoilling him as I know you would. Tammy is going in for more back surgery. I went with Rhonda and Samia yesterday to see Phatom. I talk to Vicki everyday and since you have left us, she calls just to say she loves me. I still can't reach Todd Matthews. I wish he would go on the legacy with an address or phone number. It is so wonderful to see all your friends still signing the guest book. Well, SON I will let you rest in peace. WE MISS YOU AND LOVE MORE AND MORE EVERYDAY YOUR MOM

Todd,
I was just on facebook and noticed the message left by Alana Johnson....I am very saddened to learn of the tragedy that took place 14 months ago.
I can still remember elementary school when you first moved down the street from me. We used to go play video games on Broadway and Gilbert.
Will cherish the moments we shared.
We will always miss you, but I know you are up there enjoying yourself...like you always did when you were with us.

Hi Todd, just wanted you to know I was thinking of you today as everyday I do. I still see your work truck and look to see if you are driving. Words cant express how much I miss you and everyday I look at your picture I have on my wall. You are always very close to my heart. Just wanted you to know that and pray that you never doubted that.

I see your picture in front of my computer. You are always with me in everything I do. Your nephews and neice miss you. I can still here your laugh when Samia calls you Toad. Oh, and I forgive you for going to the tattoo parlor with James to get his stars. I will love you forever.

Our lifestyles are merely a reflection,
a mirror to our soul
Filled with many mountains
that shadow some of life's holes

There are many paths to chose from,
yet direction hard to find.
We all have reached at least one crossroad,
troubled to make up our mind

As we set out on life's journey,
lets not lose focus on our goals
Because the most important part of our journey,
is to never lose sight of the road.

Hi Todd, Just wanted to let you know how much I miss you. I am sorry I have not wrote you anything in here but my computer is not working. I have just recently sent you a message and my computer died on me. But anyways I wish so badly I could talk with you. I am sure you are well aware of what is happening in my life and laugh at me daily. But raising a 16yr old son is very challenging and wish I could have some of your advice. I cant believe it has almost been a yr, I still cry about you not being here it is still so unreal to me. I try to talk to your mom as often as I can but dont call her as often as I would like. Hope you understand. I try to be strong for her and hopefully I can be there for her as often as I am needed. Anyway, I wont keep you for long, just want you to know I miss you and hope you know that. I look at your picture everyday and smile at ya. I just wish I could hear your voice. I am so mad when I listen to my voicemails and that I erased the last message you left me. I can stil hear your voice in my head though, I just hope someday i dont forget it.

Well, I guess I should go for now and I will be coming to the grave soon to pay you a visit, until then...

I had a beautiful oil painting done of you and Raven. Raven has a tear in his eye and I wonder why. We are having a highway clean up on August l5th at 8;00 a.m. at the Poston High school The one year mark of the accident. I bet your thinking OH MAN WHY. It's because your family and friends love you. You are missed and now may you rest in peace son until the next time. WITH ALL OUR LOVE MOM AND FAMILY

Joy is what fills the heart of they
which hold within the mysteries of a friend
A passion unknown unto words
Within them fall the tears of all things they endure as one
And from their eyes diamonds fall,
So precious every one
Dear within, the memories they caress with sorrow
And gather them today, for what may come of tomorrow
Priceless
Priceless ever are these moments that we spend with those so dear
Comforting now to know that they are near
Yet there comes a day when they see the eagle soar
And feel within their hearts
A passion so much more
As we stand beside them when that gleam glows in their eyes
What comes of tomorrow
My friend's lost paradise
And though a distant barrier wells up within the heart
There is a joy inside
To know the joy of a dawning start
Standing there beside them on that road to paradise
We say farewell and weep
Knowing they must also compromise
And so we hold them close and whisper in their ear
Please take with you these memories.
Then from the eyes,
Your tear.
