In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

June 3, 2010

I can't believe it has already been 2 years. The time seems to have passed so fast, yet not a day goes by that you are not on my mind. You were a great friend. Keep looking after those you love! Love.

People would think time heals, but how long does it really take? Its obvious that you were and still are a very important, special person in so many people's lives. Not a day goes by that you are not thought of. You left 2 legacies in those beautiful children of yours to live on forever. You are an angel above with so many people that love you. Continue to look over us all and take care of Nyke and Londyn as they need you.

Roki
I cant believe that it has already been a year its hurts so bad to not hear your voice anymore or see your smile. Or even the way that you would have been with our daughter. She reminds me so much of you her little attitudes and looks she gives me all the time just like her daddy. I miss you so much and cant wait till the day I get to be with you again this time forever. I found your Valentines card that you wrote to me last year and it said life time partners I wish that would have been true I know you will always be with me and everyone that you loved WE JUST MISS YOU LOTS!!!
Love you ALWAYS

My precious son Roki,I knew this day would come,and now it is here.I miss you so very much and this day use to be my favorite. You were always so thoughtful with your cards and gifts.I would give up everything to just see you one more time,or to hear your sweet voice.I pray each day for my heart to be healed but It still has a hole so big that I dont know If I will ever smile or laugh again. You made me smile.You were my light and that light has gone out. I love you Roki amd miss you so very much. Love MOM

April 14, 2009

As the days pass I still have you in my thoughts and my memories. It still doesn't seem real at times. I guess because I can feel your presence around me so often. I know you are looking over all the ones that loved you, and that's got to be keeping you busy. You are missed and loved by so many. Your legacy and memories will be passed down forever. Love you.
(Tell David I said hello and love him too)

Roki
I cant believe that it has already been 8 months. The last couple days have been really hard for me I think about you all the time. I try to stay strong so no one will know. Londyn is getting so big I wish you were here to play with us and enjoy the fun times with her. I put a pic of you on our computer and she will go over there and bang on the keyboard until it comes on so she can see your pic and talk to you. Last night she was waving and talking to you it made me so happy that even tho she will never be able to know who you were and how much you loved her physically she still does! she knows exactly who her daddy is. I show her your pic and she oos and awws and carrys on with you. I know you are still here with us I see her look over my shoulder every night and smile the biggest smile. I wish that one day I get to see you again too!! I miss you so much Roki! Continue to watch over all of us.
VISIT YOUR MOTHER!!!!! she misses you

Roki-
I don't really know what took me so long to write...you always knew it took me a while to get things done. All of us that were blessed enough to know you will always miss and think of you. My prayers go out to your family-I can't come close to imagining what a struggle the day to day is for them! I know you watch over all of us, laugh when we do something dumb and hug/comfort us when we're down. Thank you for being the amazing man and friend that you were.

Wow I have been trying to be so strong lately and I am not sure why it is today and last night that have been really hard. I had to deal with all the court crap again yesterday and finally got the order. Then Lo has been growing so fast and she really likes her monkey that has your voice on it and I think thats what kills me. That is the only way she is going to know your voice is through that monkey and you signing Vanilla Ice. I gave her your pic today and told her to give you kisses and she took the pic and put it up against her mouth. IT totally amazed me wow I am in pain today I miss you so much. I love you Roki

Baby I went to look at another house today right down the street from the other one that we looked at before. I should be excited about getting Lo into a house and out of the apt. But I am not I thought I would be but all I can think about it how its not going to have your touch or you in it. Why did you leave us??????? Londyn is getting so big she is such a blessing she makes me smile everytime I look at her. I see nothing but you in her. My brothers wedding is this weekend and it is really hard seeing as how you are suppose to be the one going to it with me. I miss you so much!! I will always love you ROKI!!!

October 2, 2008

Its been how many months and I have just now brought the strength to leave you a message. I have read all the entries about once a month. Its crazy how much of an impact you leave on so many people and dont realize it til you are no longer with us. I knew you so well in high school but kinda fell apart when we graduated. You are deeply missed by alot of wonderful people. My heart sadens when I think of you and your family. Please know there are many people who loved you and still cannot grasp this whole ordeal. RIP Roki..

Roki,

What's up bro? I bet you are posted up somewhere chillin, maybe flying around,and basically just being you. I hope that wherever you are you're just sporting one Jordan because you lost the other one. I miss you dog. Although we came from different families, you are still my brother. Blood couldn't have made us any closer. And don't worry about that lost Jordan because I'm sporting it down here. I've got a million and one memories of us and I think about/share them all of the time. You will forever be immortalized in my thoughts and in my heart. Say hello to all of the ones we miss, as we say hello to you!

TAO,

My dearest friend, I am so sorry for your lost. We have been friends for close to 40 years in that time we have shared many conversations, tears, and woos. But I never expected to get this message from you. If your heart is breaking you know mine is. I feel your pain, as I have felt your happiness over the years. JUST seems like yesterday, standing in the living room in Essex holding your new baby boy. I was saying look he likes me and you replying Hey goof all babies like to be held and smiled at. LOL Over the years you moved away, we stayed close. Distance has never kept us apart, Like sisters we are always here for each other. No words can be said to make your sorrow go away. He was loved and loved you back and as many say until you met again. May you find comfort in your new grand-baby and please make sure Aunt Robyn is send a picture . God bless Roki, his daughter and your family. He's One of God's Angels now looking down on us.

I held you while they cut the cord. After 17 hours you finally decided you would make your entrance into this world. What an entrance it was. My first words to your Mother were, Oh Debbie, he really is a ROKI! From that minute on you were the most precious thing in our lives. Then for me, the most precious moment when you were 18 months old and looked at me and called me Mom Mom. I had no special name until then. What am I going to do now? I still cannot deal with the reality of never hearing you call me Mom Mom again. I love you honey. Your life was so special, I'm sure you were not aware just how much you were loved. You will always be loved Roki. My great-grand daughter will love you too. I think she already does. With all the love that will surround her, you need not worry, she will be a very happy child, just as her Daddy was. Take care, watch over us as we attempt to deal with your loss and the days ahead of us. As ever, Mom Mom

I know we never met when I was older, but I know you know a lot about me like I know a lot about you. I wish I could have met you and hung out with you more. My mama tells me a lot about you and I met some of your friends and they are all really cool and they tell me funny stories about you too. My mama tells me that you are in heaven and I will see you again one day. Please keep me safe and watch over me please. Mama says I look and act just like you. I love you and will see you in heaven one day.

Love Nyke

I remember when Ashley told me she was dating Roki and that she wanted to introduce him to me. I had heard of Roki and some of the crazy stuff he had done. So naturally being a dad, I was going to make it tough on him because I did not think he was good enough for my daughter.But after spending time with Roki, I saw how much he had changed and loved my daughter and Londyn. He was always so polite to me (figured he was still scared and nervous). Im going to miss not having him come over to eat or hang out and make us laugh.Roki you are going to be missed but i will try and teach Londyn to have some of you're aspects.(crazy smile 1st). Debbie and family my thoughts and prayers are with you all too.

My sympathies and deepest condolences to Ashley and the Martin Family. There was never a dull moment when Roki was in the room. He will be greatly missed.

Ashley, and the Martin Family,
Me and Kyle are so sorry to hear about the loss of Roki. He was a very contagious person meaning when he smiled everyone around him did, he always put others first, and he will be missed! Please let us know if there is any thing we can do for you in this aweful time!

Roki...it is such a shame that you are not here with us anymore. You were definitely a joy to be around! I am thankful that we will forever have you in our memory! Please please watch over Ashley and Londyn, we will do our best to surround them with as much love as possible! I am praying for your family in this time of pain. You will be missed, never forgotten!

Roki-

As long as I have known you, you always have been the one to light up a room with your zest for life and your free spirit. It is hard to believe that everyone you have touched in this life will never get to have that again. This does not seem real and I don't think it ever will. Although you are in a better place it is just not fair. You will truly be missed.

LOVE
I dont even know where to begin, I already miss you so much that I dont know what to do. I know that you are watching over Londyn and me but I just wish that you were here with me. I have longed to see the look on your face the first time that you hold our daughter. I will never get to see that now. Londyn will never get to meet her daddy and understand what a great guy he was and how happy he made her mommy! I so wish that I could wake up from this nightmare and you would be right here next to me. I want to hear you tell me that you love me and you baby everyday like you do. I want to feel you arms around me at night while we sleep and your lips against mine. I still cant believe that you are gone. We have so much more that we want to do and we were robbed of that and it is so not fair. I want you back. I know you will be here with us but it is not the same. I miss you so much baby and will see you soon. Please just stay with us always!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you forever and always

Kirk and JSam and the Martin family,

We will never know why these precious men were taken from us at such a young age, but we can rest assured that God has a plan for us all and that He had a plan for David and Roki. Maybe their purpose was to make us realize just how precious and fragile life is and that we need to savor every second of it. Maybe their purpose was to make those they befriended laugh. Maybe their purpose was to show us all how to love and forgive unconditionally. Both men blessed many people and taught their friends what true friendship means. I hope you all remember all the wonderful times you shared with them and continue to allow them to live through you by "paying it forward"....by doing kind and thoughtful things for others in remembrance of them. Hug your friends and kiss your children and tell them you love them every day because as we have learned from this tragedy, we never know when it will be the last time we get the chance. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. They are now resting peacfully in the arms of Jesus, whose love and grace endures forever. God bless you and keep you, may His light shine down on you and let you feel the love and warmth that these precious men now know first hand.

Roki and David - Rest on the wings of the angels and fly forever in the freedom of His love. You will never be forgotten.

My prayers and deepest sympathy go out to Roki's & Ashley's famlies. Roki was a good guy and a free spirit. He lived life for each day and made the best of any situation. He will be greatly missed by many.
R.I.P. Roki and David
