Hey babe. I really wish you were here right now. I can't smile. Nothing or no one can make me smile. I was in the emergency room last night. I would rather not talk about it though. No, I didn't try to take my life. I'm not that pathetic. It was something that came out of nowhere... Like, I said I'd rather not talk about it. I am very depressed about it. Not depressed like suicidal or homocidal. Nothing like that. Just very I don't know how to explain it. I just feel... I don't even know.
I hope you are doing okay up there. I saw Katina about a week ago. She came in from Georgia. Her accent is funny. I hope this thing will work. I am at school right now. I'll be mad if it doesn't.
I just need to figure out how to deal with this. I have it for the rest of my life. Nothing deadly. Thank God for me. I have waaaay to much ahead of me to be dieing.
I love you more than ever. Hope you are doing well. I know you are.
♥ Love ya.

Hey, babe. Sorry it has been like forever since I've come on here. I missed your birthday... So, Happy Birthday! Mine is coming up. I'm going to blow candles out for you as well. Geeeeeeeze. I miss you more than ever. But, like I said. I have moved on. It's just wierd. To say that. I don't feel the same sadness as I used to when I would think about you. Now, I only get this hurt in my heart. Then, I keep on going. I'm thinking about putting all the newspapers, pictures, and memories into a box and sealing it up. Oh, and my letters to you. But, I don't know. I'll let you know what I decide to do.
Love and miss you tons.
God Bless You

Hey Bubby!!! How are you up there in heaven? I'm sure you're doing just fine. I really miss you. You know that right?!? You boys meant the world to me and now I have nothing. But with the love and support from everyone around me I have realized that it will take some time but I can make it through the pain. (you boys helped me realize that with one of those friendly dreams that I always have!!!) Thank you so much for everything that you have ever done for me. I love you so much!!!

Dustin Shane VanHoose!! How are ya kid? I miss you so much. I'm sure you know that though. Well I have been thinking about all the great memories I've shared with you and all the other boys. I miss being able to pick up the phone and call you boys. I was looking at the sky the other night and you popped in my head. I started bawling my eyes out. You have no idea how hard it is to go on day to day without you and the other 3 young men. Well...just know I love and miss you dearly! Love you!!

Thank you so much for being a part of my life and letting me be apart of yours!! And thanks for the dream..I now know that you're NEVER GONE!! I love you!!

Hey babes! How are you? I really miss you. When I think about all the good memories that we've shared and all the conversations that we had I just wanna cry. I miss bein able to call Ian & then hear you nd Joey in the background. I miss seeing your smiling face nd having to listen to your corny jokes even if I didn't want to..lol. You know I loved your jokes! But yeah..well I was just thinking about you and thought that I'd say something since I don't wrote in your obituary very often! Sorry..I'll start writing in here more btw. Love you! Missing you more than you can imagine!!

well hey hun it's been over a year now and not a day has gone by that you are not remembered. i saw a guy the other day and from the side he looked just liked you. when he turned around and it wasn't you my heart sank. i know your gone but i'm still not ready for it. you had so much you wanted to do and now you can't but you are many peoples angel down here. i know your looking after all your family and friends. we all love and miss you soo much and one day we'll see you again and what a happy day of reunion that will be. GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN i love you buddy
Tiara Ferguson (*So lost & lonely without you here*)
November 4, 2006
Hey Dustin! I still can't believe your gone. It's been a little over a year now and the pain isn't goin anywhere. It's still with me. I try to say good-bye to you and the other 3 boys but I'm afraid too. I'm afraid becuz what happens if I say good-bye and I forget about you boys. Or if I forget about all the memories that we've shared!?! I don't know what to do with myself anymore. It seems like the longer it's been, the more crazy I get without you. I saw Loren the other day. She really misses you alot. Make sure you look after her. I don't know what I'd do without her too. Do me favor..make sure you look after the other boys up there. MAke sure you stay out of trouble yourself too. Dustin I miss you so much. Everyone here misses you like crazy you have no idea. I'm sorry I couldn't be at the ceremony. I sorry I haven't been able to go to your grave either. It's too hard for me. But when I do go I plan on writing you a letter and leaving it there with a dozen roses or so! Well Dustin I have to be goin now. Just remember that I'll never forget about you and that I love you with all my heart and soul!
LOVE YOU,
Tiara

Dustin. Guess what. I wrote something about you in the year book, and it's in there. It's a poem and I'm going to have to put it on here for you. Everyone misses you so much you have no idea. Well I miss you so much. I hope you like the poem and you have my necklace still with you, I made sure I gave it to you. I love you so much.
Paige Rogalinski
November 2, 2006
Hey.
I went to the ceremony. It was amazing. The trees they planted for you guys, were beautiful. At the end, I put my heart necklace around your tree. I met Loren again. She misses you. On the 30th, I went to the crash site with Preston and Cassie. I didn't think it would be that hard to stand there in the spot... Ya know? I couldn't talk. I couldn't speak. I just stood there and prayed. Prayed for you and the other 3 boys. Then, I came to your grave. I lost it. I couldn't talk there either. It all came back. The pain and hurt. I bought the DVD of you 4 boys home videos. I still have yet to watch it. I'm kind of scared to. I'm scared that when I do, I'll really loose it. Jake is going to watch it with me one of these days. When I know I'm ready. I drew this drawing. Eveytime I would get depressed to the point I don't know what to do, I would add more things to it. I miss you so much. But, I have decided to move on, but never forget. I want to remember the good times we had together. It seems like the memory of your death washed away all the good memories. But, it hasn't. They are still there. That was just a big shock. My memory of us in school is coming back slowly. I mean when I think of you, I think back to the day we first held a conversation. I'm getting better. I want to remember your smile. I want to remember the good times. I know that is exactly what you would want me to do. And I am going to do it. I said good-bye to you. I let you go for the most part. But, I will never forget about you, and never completely let go. You will always be in my heart.
I love you.
Keep watching over us.
Stay out of trouble up there.
I'm glad you are home.

Dustin,
Sorry for not writing you yesterday but it was such a hard day and I kept crying whenever I tried to say anything! You know how I feel about you. I love you as if you were my own brother and that'll never change! I miss you as much as I did a year and a day ago and I don't think that'll ever change either. I miss your sweet voice and that gorgeous smile of yours. I miss how you could always make me smile and/or laugh whenever I was upset. I miss that so much becuase you boys were the only ones who could do that and now that you're gone I have noone to do that. I miss just having to hear all your jokes. Well I am starting to cry so I will write to you later on!
Love You!

Dustin,
Well it's been a year this morning. We all still miss and love you like we did a year ago. The only thing that has changed is that everyone here now has a place to go be with all of you together now.
We had a tree planting ceremony at Tom Cloud Park yesterday in honor of you four boys. You are now together again as you were when you all passed over. All that walk by the memorial area of the park will see your 4 trees there all decorated by your family and friends. I felt such a peace in my heart. Your mom and dad together helped put the dirt on your tree. It was very touching and it made my heart of hearts feel really good to have brought them together and to see them have some peace and to know that they both really loved you as their only son.
We are all blessed here on earth to have known you and the other boys. You were just taken from us too soon. But, I promise you that I will not stop until your grave site it marked with a proper marker. This is my goal so you and your family can all rest in peace.
Dustin, just remember you will never be forgotten and all you boys take care of each other until we can all be together again.
Dustin my other son I love and miss you daily.

You could tell that she misses and loves you so much! We all miss and love you dearly. Well just remember that I love and miss you sooooo much! I LOVE WITH ALL MY HEART AND SOUL!!

October 5, 2006
Hey D! I'm just writing becuz I can't seem to keep you and the other boys off my mind lately. Maybe it's becuz I just miss having my best friends around to talk to or maybe it's becuz it's so clse to it being a year since you've left. I have no idea but whatever it may be I sure do miss you alot! I would prolly be talking to you right now if you were still here becuz I'm so stressed out and I could use someone to talk to bout some things and usually I'd call you and the other guys for some advice.lol. I'm starting to cry! I can't help it but I have to go pack. So I'll write back to you later on...maybe in a few days! LOVE YOU!

You never know how good something is or how much something meant to you until you don't have it anymore. In my case that would be four amazing boys who were taken from everyone here on earth on October 30, 2005. One of those gorgeous boys are you Dustin! The mark for it being one year is coming up right around the corner. I'm so sad when I think about it. I never would've thought that something this terrible would've happened to such a wonderful, loving, gorgeous group of boys like you four! It saddens my heart to think of how many people cry every night about the accident that took you four boys away from us. I myself cry at night. My hearts broken into a billion tiny pieces and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. But, I try to keep my head up and think about all the wonderful memories I have. Because without those memories I wouldn't have anything. I turn my saddness into joy. I do this by saying to myself, "be thankful for the memories I have of them because there are some people who never got the chance to meet those amazing group of boys and I had the honor of being friends with them!" Plus I keep the thought of knowing that you, Josh, Ian, and Joey wouldn't want me to be crying all the time. Well Dustin I have to be going. I have to finish getting ready for school. Just remember how much I love you and miss you! RiP
*~Forever in my Heart~*
Love you and Miss you Sweety!

Marcia (Ian's Mom)
September 5, 2006
Dustin,
Hello there kid. Hope things are great up there in Heaven. Keep an eye one the other boys since you are the oldest. Don't let them get into trouble. I sure do miss you guys. I miss you calling and Ian and I having to come to your house to pick you up. I use to get so mad when Ian would say mom we have to pick up Dustin after school because he has no way here. I would grouch but we always came and picked you up. LOL! LOL! Now I would drive hundreds of miles to pick you all up only if I could.
I have been doing a lot of reading and wanted to share with you a few things that I read. It said that when you die a tragic death that your souls leave your bodies before you feel the pain. This was the best thing I could have read because I have been having a real problem with thinking you boys felt any pain that nite. But, I am pretty much sure that you didn't. I sure hope you didn't. There is a reason why I picked this book up and I am sure it was to ease my mind.
Ian Miles your cousin is working pretty hard I have heard. He really loves you and misses you. He tries to stay busy just like the rest of the people that you have touched their hearts. Like your family and friends you left behind. We all miss and love you guys on a daily basis and we sure wish you guys were here to give us a hard time. LOL! LOL!
Well it almost been a year now and I can't imagine what you guys have been up too up there is heaven. God had a plan for you guys or he wouldn't have taken you so soon. So listen and do your best until we can all meet again.
Miss and Love You Dustin

Yesterday was 9 months....
It started last night,
I woke up in tears.
Nightmare of fright,
Relaesed all my fears.
You were already gone,
So sudden, too soon.
What was wrong,
As I slept beneath the moon.
It was my worst nightmare,
Another loved friend dying.
In his coffin I saw him lay there,
As I started screaming and crying.
I remember the scene,
Darkest hour of the coldest night.
Sounds somewhat fimiliar to a tradgedy so deep,
That now I struggle to hold on tight.
Flashbacks is what I call these,
These memories of you so precious, so true.
Thoughts of the past do make me freeze,
Is it my imagination or did you come through?
It doesn't seem real,
Still to this day.
Ask anything, I'd kill,
To just have you stay.
To this day, closure don't seem to be an option,
Each given second I seem to get farther.
Farther from the peace I wish I could have,
But living everyday seems to get harder.
Let happen what may no matter,
But that will never change that you are not here.
We'll meet again the day we climb that ladder,
For God took you home and you are free of fear.
I'm afraid.... I miss you so much.
I'm going to come visit you soon.
Love you tons.

WoW..Dustin! Tomorrow will be 9 months since we lost you! I really miss you alot. It seems like only yesterday I was talking to you on the phone with Ian nd Joey! Make sure you watch after the other boys since you're the oldest. I still can't believe you're actually gone! It just isn't fair that you had to be taken from us. But I guess the Big Man up there thought that he needed you more than we did down here. I know you're a perfect angel tho becuz you were one down here! LoL. I can't stop thinking about how you were always saying those jokes and just goofing around. RiP I love and miss you DUSTIN SHANE VANHOOSE!!
*Only the GREAT die young*
Love you always and forever!

Hey Dustin!
How are you up there? I'm doing ok but I'm thinking about you boys all the time. It's pretty hard without you all here but I know that you don't want us to be sad so I just keep the good memories in my heart! I've finally realized that I shouldn't dwell on the fact that you're no longer here with us but that I should be thankful for even having you in my life and being thankful for having the wonderful memories that I've shared with you! I love you and miss you sooo much!!

Hi Dustin,
I have ran into your dad here twice in the past 2 weeks. Once at a Garage Sale after just talking about him with your Aunt Lisa the day before and then again on Thursday nite he had gone to a funeral at Marker and Heller again and said he just had to stop by my house and see how I was doing. I know that you lead him on the path to my house. He is such a special dad - He really misses you and I think he somehow thought that by comming by my house it would make him feel better. Boy did you ever have his eyes, I could see you so much in his eyes.
I hope you boys are all ok and just watch over us as the angels you guys are and remember that you are missed by all of us on a daily basis.
Love and Miss you so much
Marcia (Your other mom)

I haven't cried like this since your veiwing. It's hard. Luckily, I have Cassie. Yeah, her and I met pretty much through you. I'm glad we did. I've been keeping everything all held up inside. It all just came out tonight. Mainly, because I realized what I had been missing. You. I won the fight with the teacher from Texas on the Rhymes With Right website. I brought it to the end. I'm glad. I can always win in a verbal fight. You know this. I miss you. I love you. Your still my best friend. Nothing will ever change that. I'm coming to visit you soon.

Hello Dustin,
Hope you guys all had a Great Day for Ian 15th Birthday. I'll bet you did your little Gorilla dance, didn't you. LOL LOL Plus you guys probably turned the bass up real loud like you use too all the time.
I still miss all you guys everyday. All the laughter and the everyday stuff you guys use to do. It is now so quiet, except for Grandma ha! ha! She yells and chants all the time day and nite. She also misses you guys putting her to bed and getting her up.
I know you know you are missed by all your friends and family on a daily basis. You guys were such goofs or goof offs. And I am sure you haven't changed up there in heaven. Just stay the sweet guys you always were and remember that we all love and miss you here on earth.
Take care of yourselves and watch over all of us down here. We love and miss you lots.
Love you and miss you

Hey babes...this poem is written to all $ of you boys up there in Heaven!
I wish u were still here
I wish u didn't go
I wish I could have said goodbye
but how was I to know?
We all want u back
We need u in our lives
and when I think about u, it hurts
like I'm bleeding becuz of a knife
And I know u don't want that
u wanna joke,laugh,n have fun
but everything reminds me of u
even the bright shinning sun
But even it seems dull now
My world is so grey
I can't wait to see u again
I can't wait for that day
But of all the wishes I have
if jus one was granted
if jus one could come true
I'd wish we were together
I'd wish I was up there wit u!!!
Dustin...I can't say much becuz I'm in tears..I jus want u to kno that I love you so much and I think about all u guys all the time! I think about all the wonderful memories and all but I still have one question running thru my mind...Why you??
The pain seems harder each and everyday...one thing that makes it even harder is to hear someone say this...."Isn't weirod how they all died last year but Dustin was 15..but now this year he's turning 17" That make s the accident seem like forever ago! It makes it seem like time rushes by...but for me I will always think of seeing u guys yesterday! Dustin...I LOVE N MISS YOU GUYS SOOO MUCH!!!! R.I.P. Dustin Shane VanHoose!!!

Dustin,
I've missed you so much. On your sweet 16 birthday i couldn't help but cry. You were really special to me. You could always make me laugh when i was in the worst of moods. I remember all the times at lunch like when rebecca and jesica tried de-pants you. It gets harder and harder everyday. It seems like the acciendent happened yesterday. The pain of you going is still fresh. I will always think of you and i will always miss you. You were like a brother to me. I can't believe your gone. But this isn't goodbye no this is a goodnight.
We will meet again someday dustin.
Just know you are still loved and greatly missed

Dustin,
Hey Babe! I miss you so much. I cant believe your gone.. You mean so much to me. It has been so hard for me to go on day to day and not want to hear my phone ring "Grind on Me", by Pretty Ricky.. You know that you picked out that ringtone. I talk to your sister sometimes. She still calls me. But its not the same. Dustin, I had no idea how much i meant to you.. I mean i know that i meant something to you. But not as much as your mom and dad said i did. Everytime i see your dad he tells me how beautiful i am and i just start to cry. I cant believe that i meet you such a short time ago but i could talk to you about so much. Dustin you mean the world to me and i hope you know that. Some days all i want to do is cry but i know that aint going to help anything, but its the truth.. Well Mr. Dustin i will come and see you soon. I was going to a couple of days ago but i couldnt handle it. I Love You Dustin... Dustin i just wanted to let you know that you are a wonderful person and such a sweetie.
You ARE my best friend and always will be no matter what.
Love ya,
Aulbrey
