Love you bubs. Happy belated birthday

January 18, 2015

I'm struggling so bad lately. Always wanting to numb the pain anyway possible. I haven't been the same since you've been gone, and as hard as I try to I don't know if I ever will. I'm more lost than ever, even more than when I was at Rock bottom and had nothing. I should be thankful and good with what I have now, but a huge part of me is missing which makes it so much worse. I hope to see you one day very soon. Love you bro

I will just have to settle for spending it with you instead? as I know you're still with me. Its still hard to even get outta bed sometimes, more often than not, but today is your special day and one that should be celebrated as hard as it may be to do...its all about you B! Time to get up and put on my party kicks and celebrate you! Dang how I wish we could go bar hoppin again and party it up like we used to. One day we'll all be together again laughing and partying like old times! I look forward to that day. I love you Beaver? Happy Birthday ninja

I can't believe a year has passed already! Man I miss being able to call you just to talk & you always being there to listen and make me laugh. I will always cherish the memories. I keep thinking about the night Andrea left you with Erin & me at my house & we watched Erin follow the hose around the backyard in the dark. I still laugh when I think about it. We had so many good times through the years. I miss you so much B! It doesn't seem to get any easier. I love you my ninja! You will always be forever in my heart!

Thinking of you nonstop! I miss you Brother and need your love and blessings through this very rough time. I'd give anything to have one more day! I would be the best sister in the world! The best I could be just to make you smile and keep you happy! I wish I could've done something. Wish I could've been there. Im still pretty dam lost and I have no idea which way to go. Would be nice to have my big brother telling me shut up SEESTER, and keep moving on. ;) I'll never stop missing you! Please please help us get through this Christmas! Its going to be different that's for sure! Dad's been sick too, so a little healing would be wonderful! He's been hurting so bad since you've been gone! We all have!

Happy birthday ninja! I cant believe you would be 31 yesterday. Do you realize just how long we've been friends? WOW! Who would have thought back in the day that we would have ended up so close! 7 months ago today everything changed and the nightmare began. I cant believe its been that long...feels like just yesterday and still hurts as bad. I got to spend time with your boys yesterday for your birthday and cant believe what a little man and awesome big brother Kaden is. He had chili fries at Zingos so he is definitely your son.lol You did good with him B. They both are getting so big it makes me sad. Thanks for putting a smile on my face and reminding me whats in my storage:) I felt peace at that moment & know it was all you. I love you Beaver

September 9, 2012

Idk why my messages don't get posted anymore, but was thinking about you a couple days ago and it feels like just yesterday and not 6 months ago. I would give anything to have a talk with you even though you made me angry sometimes telling me about me and a certain someone and how he was no good for me and using me, I needed to hear it from someone that actually cared about me and I know that now, but if it had been anyone else telling me how wrong he was for me things wouldn't have been so nice. You were sometimes my heart speaking to me so that I could hear and telling me things that I needed to wake up and realize were going on because I was blinded by what I thought was love for him. Thank you for not holding your tongue and just letting me go on and continuing to be used and hurt when my heart was all in it with him. No one else could have made me listen or gotten the message across. That's 1 reason I need you so much now! Idk who to trust to tell me how it really is no matter if it hurts me in the process. That's what a true friend does and Beaver you definitely proved to be just that....a real true friend. I love and miss you always!

Your Baby sis I MISS YOU BOTHER!

September 2, 2012

Its almost been 6 months Bubba! 6 months since I woke up to the worst news that a little seester could possibly bare! No need in going into details right now. Just wanted to say I Love and Miss you with all my heart! Wish you could just come home! I think of you daily! Without you in my heart and by my side, I wouldn't be able to go on. I know you're here with me though in spirit! Hope that never changes. Till we meet again! Love always! Your Seester!

you are a constant reminder of how precious life is and how quickly it can be taken from us. I miss our senseless bickering we used to do that irritated my sister to no end. We had many differences, but we understood each other in out own way and I wouldnt have had it any other way. Love, Alyse

Brandon, we love you and will miss you, you were a part of our family,taken from us way to soon! though we didnt always see eye to eye, you knew we were always there for you, seeing you spend time with the boys at our house your last couple of weekends here with us was such a blessing, seeing how happy the boys were playing baseball with you , taking a walk around the block and just sitting on the grass talking to them, they will always have those great memories.
the boys look for the brightest star in the sky at night saying thats were daddy is so keep your star shining bright and always watch out over your sweet little guys!!!!

Wow this is really happening! Its more real everyday Brother. I just got off the phone with Dad and was telling him how I was doing a little better, but it is still so hard. Sometimes worse than others. I think I will always shed a tear for you bub! I know your suffering is over, but there was so much unsaid and undone. You left us too soon for sure. You are at peace now! I try to say that to make it easier. Not going to lie, its not working yet, but I'm not giving up. You are in all my thoughts! Every song I hear, every time I see Mikey and Lex, driving down the road, or looking at my love seat lol. Wish you were here jammn to Pandora or showing me something funny u found on utube. :) I never thought that the morning you left for the airport headed back home would be the last time I would ever see you! I remember I couldn't stay awake so you woke me up b4 you left and I got mad because you took my suitcase. I felt so bad when you walked out the door so I called to say sorry and tell you how much I love you and was so sad that you were leaving. I cried and stayed up waiting for your call. I miss you so bad! :.( I did get a little more than 2 months with you running from tornados, fishing, arguing, me trying to kick you out lol. Yes I'm a brat! I'm ur sis, I'm suppose to be ;) it was the best few months I've had in a long time. I had a blast until you left. I will remember every moment we shared and forever cherish all the times we haad! Good or bad, you were the best brother ever! I love you with all my heart BUBBA! PLEASE WATCH OVER MOM and DAD ALONG WITH THOSE HANSOME BOYS! Give Grandma and Grandpa a big hug from me and kids! All my love with you for eternity! Till we meet again....R.I.P. BIG BROTHER! LOVE ALWAYS! YOUR ONE AND ONLY LIL SEEEEEESTER :) P.S. I HEAR THE MUSIC NOW BRANDON! I CAN HEAR EVERY WORD THIS TIME! :)

I think about you everyday. You made me who I am. Showed me from a young age that I was a girl worth loving. You would do anything for me and I tortured you throughout the years but my funniest memory was freshman year. You wanted to be my boyfriend so I said I would go out with you if walked me over some chocolate milk in a pink cup two miles to Anne's house. Haha You totally showed up outside 45 minutes later. You were a hopeless romantic. A loving man, friend, and most of all father. I will always carry you in my heart as one of the most influential people I've ever got the privilege to know and love.
