A JOURNEY REMEMBERED
AS SOME PEOPLE JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE,
THEY LEAVE FOOTPRINTS WHEREVER THEY GO
FOOTPRINTS OF KINDNESS AND LOVE, COURAGE
AND COMPASSION, HUMOR AND INSPIRATION,
JOY AND FAITH..
EVEN WHEN THEY ARE GONE, WE CAN STILL
LOOK BACK AND CLEARLY SEE THE TRAIL
THEY LEFT BEHIND
A TRAIL BRIGHT WITH HOPE
THAT INVITES US TO FOLLOW
LOVE AND MISS YOU SO MUCH

Happy Birthday Dad!! Miss You Both So Much. You were right, as more years go by the More I think of you and Mom everyday. I pray God will continue to give me the strength I need to do what he needs of me until we are reunited in Heaven.
Special Prayers for my little brother Tommy Toe.
Written by my brother John David in 2000: I REMEMBER
Dad, I remember back when I was five and my toys were strewn all over the place. I remember you and I wrestling with love and gentle grace, and I remember you always pressing your whiskers to my little face. I remember running and racing and you letting me win. I remember falling asleep with my cheek on your chin.
I remember back when I was ten, sitting outside on the wall waiting for you to get home from work so we could play ball. I remember you teaching me how to pitch and catch, and to win and to lose. I remember the concrete from a hard day's work was stuck to your shoes. I remember you coming to my games. You never missed a day because you knew your blue eyed boy was wanting you to watch him play. I will never forget that sparkle in your eyes and the lakes and the rivers we fished at sunrise.
I remember back when I was in my twenties and we drove home from a hard day's work sweating and sunburned and all full of dirt. I remember hammers, levels, paint cans and pails, concrete blocks, and galvanized nails that we worked with in the basements and attics, on sidewalks and drives. I remember us always working side by side.
Now I'm in my thirties and it all seems the same; but your skin was etched on a more fragile frame and your whiskers were grayer. But they felt just the same. Now that your gone, I promise you this: I will never forget your Whisker Kiss.
Written by Darlene Williams in 2000:
We gather here not only to mourn Dave's death, but to also celebrate his life, a life devoted to his beloved wife, Corrine, and the family they created together. Dave Hawks, although outwardly a simple man, possessed the wisdom and nobility of spirit to be undeterred by life's distractions that often tempt more sophisticated and worldly men. He was a faithful husband, and a loving father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Although, technically, I was not a member of the Hawks' clan, Dave and Corrine always treated me like family, and I grew up thinking of them as a favored aunt and uncle. Some of my fondest and earliest memories are of playing and romping around the Hawks' family home on Hayes Street, with Dave and Corrine's oldest daughter, Vicki Lee. During that time, the house was still uncompleted, and Terry, John and Tommy had yet to be born. Dave and Corrine built that house brick by brick. They turned that house into a home with large doses of love, commitment and laughter. Today, happy children still romp and play on Hayes Street. They represent the harvest of Dave's life, and his legacy to the future. Dave was a big and powerful man with a gentle and patient heart. In the end, what more can we hope to accomplish in life than to create a home full of love and laughter, and occupied by those we cherish and who cherish us in return. During one of my last conversations with Dave, a couple of months ago, he expressed his thankfulness that his grown children remained close to him and Corrine and continued to enjoy their company. So many people, he said, rarely see their children, once they are grown. His gratitude in this simple pleasure was touching to witness. So, this evening, let us not dwell on what we've lost. But, rather, together, celebrate the good fortune that brought Dave into our lives, with the knowledge that he will always remain a tender part of our hearts.
The Lord could not have chosen anyone better to capture my Father's spirit with these words that Darlene spoke for him and the Hawks clan. I Thank Her So Much.
Love and Miss You Both With All My Heart. SusieQ

Happy Mothers Day Mom!
A new day is dawning for the third year on Mothers Day without you!
The whippoorwills are singing love songs, while the dogs are all howling at the moon. And the rooster is crowing, that it will be morning soon.
And his new found friend the turkey, is gobbling behind him, I guess he is confused. But it does sound so cute.
Hearing all these things are beautiful, but its the sound only my heart can hear, that really means the most to me, now.
You humming comfort like you used to do, that is the true music, to my ears. The sound of Dad and You. Your voices, so calming and reassuring, that all will be anew.
That Is What Substains Me, Through and Through.
Your Baby Girl, SusieQ

Mom, todays your birthday and I asked myself what it would be you wished for if you were still here. I started looking through the bible for your marriage certificate when I found this. A Poem from you titled
"Mother's Wish"
All that I remember, all that I once knew. For I wonder about time, how quickly if flew. A home that was gay, young so alive. With some of its worries, woes and strife. All was a challenge, some fear, some exciting. Love with its fires, so deliciously inviting. Laughter and music, singing and dancing. Chicken pox and meassles, doctor came and went. Little I knew, each day was heavenly spent. Watching my children, now grown on their own. These are the seeds, that I have sown. As time goes its way, for it can not stay.
"A Wish For My Children, A Laugh For Each Day"
Mom wrote on the bottom "I Love You All Very Much, Love MOM
Thank You Mom and Happy Birthday :)

Wake Me When September Ends
Summer has come and past
The innocent can never last
Like my fathers come to pass
Seven years has gone to fast
Here comes the rain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Ring out the bells again
Like we did when spring began
Wake Me When September Ends

If I Were Brave?
What would I do if I knew that I could not fail? If I believed would the wind always fill up my sail? How far would I go, what could I achieve, Trusting the hero in me?
If I were brave I'd walk the razor's edge where fools and dreamers dare to tread. Never lose faith, even when losing my way, What step would I take today if I were brave?
What if we're all meant to do what we secretly dream? What would you ask if you knew you could have anything? Like the might oak sleeps in the heart of a seed, are there miracles in you and me?
If I refuse to listen to the voice of fear, Would the voice of courage whisper in my ear?
What would I do today if I were brave.

MEMORIES OF YOU BOTH
The angles led you both safely home
But you left somethings behind
Treasured gifts beyond compare
Those of a special kind
You left behind, your gift of Love
You gave so faithfully
You left behind, the ones you Loved
Many cherished memories
And from early dawn to setting sun
Each day, My Whole Life Through
My Heart will hold a special place,
For Memories of You Two.
Love and Miss You So Much

YOU WILL BE REMEMBERED
You will be remembered when the flowers bloom in spring
In the summertime remembered
In the fun that summer brings
You will be remembered when fall brings leaves of gold
In the wintertime, remembered
In the stories that are told
And you will be remembered, each day right from the start
For the memories that we once shared
Forever live within My Heart.

Mom, I Took My Bike
Into The Woods
To Pick The Wildflowers
I Stopped To Wonder
If You Knew
I Was Picking Them
For You
When I Returned Home
I Heard The Sound
Of Crashing Waves
Upon The Ground
It Was Your Music Box
I Heard So Loud
Immediately I Knew
It Was You
Saying, Yes I Do
Oh, How Beautiful
God, I Miss You So Much Mom

Its been a year ago today that you went away to a better place each and everyday i think of you and all the things that we use to do i miss going down to franks and getting biscuits and gravy and taking our weekly trip to super wal-mart we use to come home and watch tv and eat lunch and sit around and talk and laugh all day.. Im going through a really rough time in my life right now and i would give anything just to hear you say " Amber everything will be alright " it doesnt matter what i did you always respected my decision and stood by me.. I remember the day i came to your house and i had just got my lip pierced i said Grandma what do you think & be honest and you said without any hesitation "Amber you look so much more beautiful with all that stuff on your face" i dont think anyone ever really understood the special bond we had nobody could ever top it.. Madison will be 10 months on the 8th she has 3 teeth and she is crawling like crazy i know you can see her but i just wish you could hold her and share that special bond with her as well.. I love you grandpa and nathan very much and i cant wait untill we all meet again!! I will never forget all those special memories we had. Never. i cant wait untill i can tell madison all about you even though she never got a chance to meet you im sure that she will still love you just as much as i do..
Love and miss you..

For all eternity

Mom, its your favorite time of year
And I wanted you to know
The lights are all strung
Lighting up the yard
I put your tree up
In your honor
I displayed your christmas houses
And made a winter scene
Oh how beautiful
With all your figurines
Dancing on the hills of snow
I sprinkled it with glitter
Just as you use to do
Oh how beautiful
It sparkles soooo
Merry Christmas Mom and Dad
And Happy New Year to you
In Heaven
We all Miss you and Love you

In all my Mom's life I know she never would have dreamed she'd be remembered in such a way on the internet for the world to see and receive so many beautiful memorials in her honor from all of those that loved her the most and knew her best. Thank all of you for this as it really does help us to mend and give us great comfort to see how often she is thought of and acknowledged for the wonderful person that she was.

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.

Mom, its Brandi's 29 birthday today. I can't believe it's been so many years since I woke you and dad up at 4am to tell you I was having labor pains. I can still see the two of you leaping from the bed with so much excitment and anticipation at the idea of finally getting to meet your first grandchild. I was so calm and I insisted that we all got cleaned up and ready to go as my labor pains were 20 min. apart. By the time we got to the hospital at 6 am and they took me to get me preped, all I remember after that is calling your name. MOM. I WANTED MY MOM. And just like thru out my whole life you were there. I remember the look on yours and dads face when you first saw Brandi and how proud and happy you both were that she was finally here. I can stil hear Dad saying "She looks a little wild dont she" as he giggled. Then he said thats my Ms. Mungus and Mon going on and about how beautiful you were. Mom thank you for always being there for us. I miss you, SusieQ

Hey Aunt Corrine! Just wanted to let u know, we placed Marks ashes finally, a little over one year later on October 4th, its been one year already! It just dawned on me that two of my favorite people in the world passed in September, approximately 1 yr. apart, Mark was gone on Sept. 29th last year, his spirit I believe left his body the night of the accident, I am sure of this! It was a very emotional time, just when you think you are ok! BAM it hits you again! But time does heal all wounds, the scar will always be there, but a scar is not nearly as bad as an open wound! Tell mark to watch over me and the boys, Justin will be taking his SAT's this year, he's getting ready for college, Mark would be so proud of him! and he has a girlfriend whom I adore! Marky will be 13 in a few weeks SO in the past year mark has been gone my oldest turned 16 and got his drivers license (BLAH!) and my middle will be entering the teens and everytime we come to something momentous the kids and I start wishing he was here to see those things, but we are trying to move forward because we have to and more importantly because we need to, thats what you would want for your family and thats what Mark would want for his, because you were both such selfless people! The world will NOT be the same place without you! I Love you and still cant believe you're gone, I didnt get to see and talk to you as much as I wanted, but you were always in my heart and always will be! Just felt the need to write this down and to talk to you in some way! Love Laura, The boys & Coco too!!

Mom, Its Fall Here Now
So Jade and I Searched The Woods
We Picked You Some Wildflowers
To Place In Your Favorite Vase.
The Air Outside
Is Crisp And Cool
And The Leafs
Have Begun To Change.
The Moon Has Come Out Early
Beautiful And Full
The Sun Is Setting Behind Me
And The Sky Out Back Is Orange.
I Have A Fire Burning
And The Smell Is That Of Oak
A MIst Of Rain Is Falling
And The Fireflies Have Come To Play.
A Cardinal Just Flew In
To Take His Daily Bath
And A Few Colorful Butterflies
Are Dancing At The Flowers Edge.
As I Sit Here In My Rocker
Coffee Cup In Hand
Looking At Yours Empty
My Heart Begins To Shake.
Because I Know
Just How Much
You LOVED
All These Things.
When Out Of Nowhere
A Wind Blew Thru Our Trees
Forcing All Our Windchimes
To Begin To Sing.
Suddenly My Heart Went Quite
And Filled Up With Joy
As I Saw Your Rocker Moving
I Knew You Had Joined Me.
Once Again Extending Your Hands
Coming Thru To Visit And Say
I'm So Happy Here With Dave
And Everything Will Be O.K.
Then I Began To See
Beautiful, Everlasting,
Memories
OF YOU AND ME.
Thank You God
For Giving Me
Such A Wonderful Mother
To Remember.
And For All The Years
We Had Together.
I Miss You So Much Mom,
Your Daughter Forever

Corrine, I read each entry in your guest book! Your family is so loving.....it had to come from you! I will cherish all the times we laughed and you laughed at Terry & I. We did and still will do some crazy stuff on the 4 wheelers. I try to talk to her everyday.....she is such a great person and she misses you so much! Terry on the outside seems so strong but inside she is torn apart. I will keep my promise to you....I will always be there for her. Thank You again for all your strength you gave me for Jessica and every time she is sick I hear your words...."She will be fine!" I hold your words close to my heart. We love you & we miss you!

I am Missing My Grandma
I have a grandma
who hugs, kisses, and says ' how you've grown'
but not anymore
I have a grandma
who use to play games with me
and would not get upset if I won
but would always laugh
when we played games
I have a grandma
who told the best stories snorted
when she laughs and told jokes
but not anymore
I have a grandma
who would in a minute take me to Mc'ds
and to the stores but not anymore
I can't let go, holding tight,
It's hard to think, you'll be alright.
Up and down on this emotional dive,
It's hard to accept, you're not alive.
So many questions, left in my heart,
So many tears, Where do I start?
Give me comfort, give me love.
Send me strength, down from above.
Send me signs, in plain sight,
To let me know you're alright.
I Love and miss You, Grandma
say hi to Grandpa and Nathan for me
your grandson,
Tori Hawks

Grandma, when I think of you,
My mind becomes all anew.
Fresh thoughts of you go in my head;
How much I wish you were not Gone.
I remember the times we stayed up late;
Those sandwiches you made were really great.
Grandma, every time I think of you,
I remember the days and what we used to do.
I wish you were here with me until now.
God will help me get through this somehow.
I loved you then, and I love you even more now.
The times we had together I will always adore.
Grandma, every time I think of you,
I remember how much I miss you,
and what we used to do.
I love you now, as I loved you then,
In my heart you will always be here
To guide me as you've always been.
your baby girl -sure do miss you
say hi to Grandpa and Nathan for me.

I KNOW ITS TIME TO REJOICE BECAUSE ONE OF GODS ANGELS HAS COME HOME BUT I SIT HERE TONIGHT IN SADNESS BECAUSE I ALSO KNOW THAT THIS WORLD HAS LOST ONE OF ITS ANGELS THAT ARE SO FEW.
YES MY MOM WAS AN ANGEL ON EARTH NOT JUST TO HER FAMILIY BUT FOR ANYONE SHE KNEW.
SHE WAS A SHINING EXAMPLE OF WHAT WE SHOULD BE NOT SELFISH, AROGANT, OR ABOVE ANYBODY.
SHE WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR THE LEAST OF US JUST AS JESUS WOULD DO SHE WAS A ANGEL ON EARTH THIS I ALWAYS KNEW.
IT MIGHT NOT APPEAR THAT SHE HAD A LOT BUT SHE HAD ALL OUR LOVE ITS ALL SHE WOULD WANT.
SHE HAS STORED ALL HER REWARDS IN HEAVEN WHERE SHE SITS BY GODS THRONE I CANT WAIT TO SEE HER AGAIN WHEN I GET TO GO HOME.
I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH

TO MOM THE STRONGEST WOMAN I WILL EVER KNOW. AT FIRST GLANCE MY MOMS HANDS MAY SEEM TO BE MEEK.SHE WOULD FLINCH WHEN SHE BUMPED THEM AND HER GRIP WAS A LITTLE WEAK. MY MOMS HANDS WERE A REFLECTION OF THE WOMEN INSIDE, ALTHOUGHSHE HAD HER LIMITS SHE STILL STOOD STRONG WITH PRIDE. I WAS AT HER HOUSE ONE DAY CHECKING THE OIL IN HER CAR,I LOOKED IN HER WINDOW AN SAW HER TRYING TO OPEN A JAR. I WALKED IN THE HOUSE HER STILL TRYING TO OPEN IT WITH GREAT TASK,IT'S ONLY AFTER HESITATION THAT SHE FINALLY ASKED... BUT DON'T LET THAT MISLEAD YOU FOR YOU MUST UNDER STAND.IT'S NOT WHAT THEY CAN'T DO,BUT RATHER WHAT THEY CAN.HER HANDS HAD THE STRENTH TO RAISE A FAMILY RIGHT,TO WIPE AWAY YOUR TEARS AND THEN HOLD YOU TIGHT. I SEEN HER HANDS IN THE OVEN,I SEEN HER HANDS IN HER HAIR,BUT WHEN YOU NEEDED THEM THEY WERE ALWAYS THERE.... SO IF HER HANDS DID NOT APPEAR ALL THAT TOUGH,JUST REMEMBER THEY WERE FULL OF TENDERNESS AND LOVE AN FOR ME THAT WAS ENOUGH........................................MOM THANKS FOR ALWAYS BEING THERE......................YOUR SON JOHN DAVID

My deepest sympathy to the entire Hawks family who used to live "around the corner" from Palm Auto Sales in Hollywood. All of you became family to Rex and I.

Dear Family of Corrine, I am writing for Hank and Mary Jane Metzger, former neighbors on Hayes St. Hollywood Fl. Mary Jane, if she could, would send her sympathys and tell of what a wonderful neighbor and friend Corrine was. Hank sends his condolences and always thought well of Dave and Corrine. The best of neighbors and honored to call them friends. Their passing leaves an empty spot in his heart.
As for me and my family, we are deeply sorry for your loss. We think of our Florida winter vacations visiting mom and dad on Hayes St would not have been near so much fun without the entire Hawks' family. They always treated us as long lost cousins and we miss all you guys. We were so sorry when you lost your dad but it breaks our hearts to hear you lost your mom too. I don't know the secret they had in raising a family, but you all are wonderful people and I'm sure they were very proud of each a every one of you. May Gof hold you all in the palm of his hand. And keep in touch with your Indiana friends. Love,

Terri, Vivki Lee, John and Tom, Sorry, I couldn't been there for
Corrine and the rest of you. I,ve known Corrine about all of my life. I use to live in the house at Sprague, where Corrine and her family lived in before they moved to Calloway Heights. We were at each others house all the time. My father and all the Shelton boys grew up together in Virginia. Corrine was the friend a person ever had. She would do everything she could to help a person. I will always remember her and the good times we had growing up and the days in school. I just went to our 57th. class reunion. All my love and prayers go out to all the family. Elizabeth Shortt Steele, Madison, West Virginia

It's so very hard to believe that you are gone. Your were the only mother that I ever knew, having raised me after our own mother passed away. I was just a child, but you were young also with a family of your own. It had to be hard on you to take on the responsibility of caring for me along with your own children. As I told you many, many times, I could not have had a better childhood. It was the best! Our home was the place everyone wanted to be. Your unconditional love and support for everyone was so amazing. The love and care you gave to our brother Nathan after our dad passed away goes way beyond any words could ever express. No one could have ever taken better care of him and because of you he had a wonderful full life. I will miss our daily talks, our shopping trips, our travels, and eating out and us staying up late watching "Lifetime" movies when I came to visit. But most of all, I will miss you my sister, my mom, my friend.
I know how much you loved poems, so this is for you.
Time has passed so quickly
Since the time that I was small
You were always there for me
The one that I could call
You always stood right beside me
Through thick and through thin
Though the years have flown so swiftly by
Because of you, what a wonderful life it's been
You meant so very much to me
For your loving, giving, caring way
Because of your love and care for me
You made me the person I am today

Dear Corrine, it was my pleasure to have known you and shared in watching most of your grandchildren get through elementary school and seeing you from time to time at Debby's kids birthday parties along with functions at school. I know they will miss you terribly. May you rest in peace. Our sympathy goes to the whole family.

Dear Corrine, I am sorry I wasn't there to say goodbye to you. In the 45 plus years I have known you, the warmth, love and friendship you showed me and all who knew you was a testament to the wonderful person you are. The Corrine I knew was a woman who put all others before herself; a loving mother, wife, caregiver and friend. You will be sadly missed by all who knew you. Heaven has a very special angel in you. It is comforting to imagine that you and Dave are once again united, and can rekindle your love in a beautiful place.
My sincere condolences to all of Corrine's loved ones and family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Corrine will be so sadly missed.
Lovingly,
Carolyn and Michael Kordsmeier

Our sympathy goes out to the Hawks family at this difficult time. Corrine was a wonderful, generous women, with a heart large enough to enfold all of us blessed enough to know her. As with many others, she was a second mother to me, and another sister to my mother. When I think of Corrine, I think of her humor. She was jump'n-jack funny. When I was a kid, I asked her how it went, after she returned from the dentist. "Oh, he said my teeth are fine," she replied. "It's my gums that have to go."
Fly Free, Corrine

Although apart in distance,
Never apart in heart,
A person sadly missed
Brought Warmth to every heart.
A grandma, mother and wife,
Has been lost to the battle of life
Although we can't be there,
You're always in our hearts
As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering
Did we remember to thank you enough?
For all you have done for us
It's not goodbye I want to say
As someday we will meet again
So till that day comes
All i want to say is so long
Although you're in a better place
We still wish you were here,
We'll miss you and love you forever

They say there is a reason
They say that time will heal
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel.
For no one knows the heartache
that lies behind our smiles,
No one knows how many times
we have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something
so there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of
but so hard to be without.
We cannot bring the old days back,
when we were all together
The family chain is broken now,
but memories live forever and ever.
We love you with all our might
On this very lonely night
We can only stop these tears
Knowing that you have no more fears
I love you and will all ways miss you
Your daughter-in-law Debby
Always remember you meant the world to me and my children(your grandchildren(Matt,Amber,Kyle & Tori)
love and miss you
