Hey Bub
I miss you every day
I think about you everyday and I wonder what life would be like having you still here
I miss your smile your laughter
I miss calling you Lucky
I'm so sad everyday without you- wishing we could all be a family again
I think about Calisra everyday of my life and think of how proud of her you would be
I wish I knew her and I'm disappointed I didnt make more of an effort -but it was just too too hard for me.
I cry a lot!
I pray a lot! For you, for dad, for our family- for Calista.
I love you soooo much. and everyday that passes by - I'm sad; but also a little it happy knowing ill be days closer to being with you and Dad, I love you, Bub! And I reaally really Miss you!!!

Hey Lucky,
I miss you so much. Today is Father's Day and I cant help but think of you and dad and how much I miss both of you every single day. Some days are a lot tougher than others to get through without the both of you- like today. I wish I could go grab a cup of coffee with you and sit outside at Stauff's. I hope you are taking good care of Bear. I love and miss you so much.

Hi Bub,finally brought the laptop home from the salon so I can stay in better touch with you and dad.You both are on my mind 24-7.words can't even begin to express the pit in my stomach of how much I miss you.Loved both of you more than you'll ever know.I just have to believe that God had a bigger and better plan for both of you because you both are such great people.Both of you are so loving and caring.I see your beautiful smile,blue eyes,tanned skin everywhere.The loneliness that all of us have without you is undescribable.Why us?Dad and I as parents worked sooo hard to have our beautiful,close knit,loving and caring family and then be dealt this.Just hope and pray that some day all the puzzle pieces will fit together.Look at pictures and get sooo teary eyed.Neither one of you can ever be replaced.Please give us the strength to remain strong until we are all united again.Haven't seen Calista and Enzio for quite awhile.Please know however that Brandon,Megan,Tiffany & Abigail will always be here for them and help in anyway we can.Calista is the closest memory we have of you.The pain when we see her is sooo tough as she has beautiful features just like you.You were such a great,great dad.You'll never be replaced.You left sooo many wonderful memories of being her dad.Dad and I were always sooo proud of you,Bub,and we both knew the negative forces you dealt with.We both loved you sooo much and tried our hardest to bring you peace and happiness.Please forgive me for not handling situations the way you felt they should have been handled.We did try our hardest,Bub.Love you more than you'll ever know.In my thoughts and prayers24-7.Know God will have our beautiful family all together again.Eternal Love,Mom xoxo

Yes Laron it is Libby...who would of thought! A good friend brought to my attention today that there was a site that I could write to you at, of course I didn't have a clue! I can see you right now, "Oh Libby!" I just read your mothers entry and starting crying, she loves & misses you so much. I just saw Brandon this weekend, he looks great. Meg and I have been trying to hook up but we have both been so busy but we are going to get Jameson and Layne together soon. I guess I just really wanted you know that you are in my thoughts. I think about you often and only wish there was something I could have done to help but I truly believe in my heart that God had a plan for both you and Jim. You would be so proud of me, I am still going strong at the radio station still plugging away, Layne is almost 3 years old and such a special little boy, but don't let that fool you he has attention spand like his mother's, it could be worse...HAHA! Please know that you are and will always be a very special person and I was lucky to have known you. You always made me laugh when I would come in the salon with my pale body I can hear you know "Libby, you need a tan." Please know that you are very much loved and will always be remembered!
Love, Libby

Dear Bub,thinking of you like I always do 24/7.I can't even begin to tell you how much we all miss you.We all loved you soooooo much.We continually mention all the great qualities you had.The world truly needed you.How many times did dad and myself tell you how much you had to offer?Wish I knew everything maybe we didn't know so the end result could have been changed.Not a day goes by when someone or more talks about you and how loving,caring,thoughtful etc.etc.you were.I just have to believe God had a better plan for you and dad and you both are together.We as a family pray daily that God will continue giving us the strength to take each day and remind ourselves that we will all be together .It's just that we missand love you sooo much.There are days when I truly feel you and dad are right here next to me.I truly believe that's God's way of keeping you close.Bub,when I think about the past there are soooo many things I wish I had done different.Dad and I tried soooo hard to be the best parents we could,give all 5 of you the things that are of utmost importance to have a well rounded life.I continually ask myself WHY,WHY did this horrible tragedy happen to such a beautiful,loving,caring close knit family?I continually pray that all of this will make sense someday.Bub,we don't see Calista often but she is in all out thoughts and prayers daily.Know it's extremely hard for Brandon,Tiff,Abby and Megan to see her as she looks just like you-Such beautiful features.Trust me,Laron,I will always be here for her no matter what.She loves you soooo much.She has great memories of all the time you two did have together.You were a wonderful,caring,thoughtful friend,brother,son.You will never be forgotten.We will all be together again as our wonderful family.Love,Mom xoxoxoxoxo

Dear LeBay Family
I am terribly saddened to hear of your losses. I remember Laron as my cute and shy childhood buddy. Carolyn used to babysit me before and after school each day and I remember how fun and happy your family always was.
I have dug up some old photos of Laron and I at my 6th birthday and our kindergarten, 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade class pictures. Any family or friends of Laron's who would like email copies or hard copies in the mail please contact me.
Sincerely, Chandra Bosanac

Happy Birthday Laron-Bub.Wish soooo much you were here so I could give you a big hug and kiss like I always did.Have dreaded this day for months.You will never know how much you're loved and missed by everyone.Bub,Like dad and I use to tell you -You had soooo much to offer this world.We lost two of the greatest people ever.You had all the right qualities.Your love,care,thoughtfulness and constant concern for others will never be forgotten.You always tried to make life perfect for everyone else.You and dad had so many of the greatest qualities that anyone could ever ask for.We were truly blest with the greatest family ever.All of us always had out priorities where they belonged even though we had been very successful in all ways.The love all of us had for one another will never be matched.Know you and dad are together-smiling,laughing-truly enjoying each other.Today has been an extremely rough day for Brandon,Tiff,Megan and Toot.They loved you-And still do-soooooo much.We talk of all the good things you did for all of us.Always doing for others.When anyone needed anything done-It was always call Bub.Such a void without you,Laron.I see your beautiful smile,tan everywhere.Haven't seen or talked to Calista recently.Know how much she misses her daddy,also.There couldn't be a dad who loves his little girl more than you did.You will always be her daddy.We will try to do for her what you would want us to.It's sooo hard because we look at her and she looks sooo much like you,Bub.So much beauty outwardly and inwardly.She has so much faith and knows that someday she will be with her daddy again.Know God has a plan for all of us.However,the pain,loss,suffering we're going through daily is unexplainable.Such a void in our lives.I spend every waking moment beating myself up with what I did do or didn't do.Just wish I could relive these past years and make the changes so that you and dad could still be here with us.I occasionally sit on the front porch and imagine how great it would be to see you and dad walking up to the door with your beautiful smiles.Someday!Please know Laron that we all love you more than anything and always will.Eternal love,Mom xoxoxoxo

Hello my love! Its been awhile since i have wrote to you. I am sitting here listening to your song by Cinderella "you dont know what you got till its gone" and baby you are soooo right. I am sorry i was not able to play it for you. I remember a couple weeks before you passed you told me to make sure if anything ever happens to you that i play that song at your funeral. I told you that nothing was going to happen to you. If i could only go back? I hate you not being here, i keep waiting for you to return. I know you are not going to and i cant stand it. I keep so much in cause of the kids so my only venting to you is to write to you. I just wish you were really here to know how many people love you.
I talk to your mom every now and then it is so hard. I had a major melt down on Easter. Your nephew Vincent reminds me so much of you. Calista and Enzio are doing okay. Calista just had her First Communion on May 29th 2007 that was such a big day for her. We know you were there though cause when we went outside a butterfly flew right between the two of us and Calista blurts out "there goes my daddy mommy!" We see you everywhere. School is almost out summers are hard for me. We were always traveling and hanging out with the kids. You loved sunny days. I am going to try to get to
Tiffs this summer i just dont know if i can yet. You/we spent so much time up there, I know she misses you guys so much.
Okay baby, i am going to stop now, i could go on for days. My head is hurting from crying i still do alot of that. i wish you were here to hold me cause thats what you use to do when i was sad for whatever reason you were always there and know you are not, i mean you are in my heart but thats not the same. Tomorrow is Mothers Day another hard day. I will make sure i visit your mom so she can see the kids. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND YOU WILL NEVER KNOW.
Love always and forever- PAULA

Hi Bub,Just wanted to say hi and tell you once again how much all of us love and miss you.I have sooooo many dreams of you and dad.I truly feel that's God's way of keeping us close.I see you everywhere.Your beautiful smile,blue eyes,nice tan.Would give anything to have you and dad walk thru the door.How much we take for granted.You can never be replaced,Bub.My love for you and dad grows stronger with each passing day.I know you and Dad are at peace-Laughing,chatting about different subjects as you both are so very educated with lots of good sense.Please keep a close watch on all of us and save spots for all of us.Paula,Calista & Enzio stopped up last night.It's a comfort seeing Calista as she's as close as we can get to you,Bub.You'd be sooooo proud of the young lady she's becoming.And Enzio is such a cute,sweet little boy.You have left behind such a lasting love in their loves.There can't be a better dad anywhere.Abby gave Calista an ipod for her birthday.What a thrill seeing how excited she was.We'll see her this Sunday as she'll be having a little b-day party where Paula has it.Will really miss not having you there but know you & dad are there in spirit.I have to keep reminding myself of that because these days are sooo rough.Love you more than you'll ever know,Bub.Mom

Baby-its been a year now and i dont know how i made it. It is the hardest thing to do. I miss you sooooo much i cant stand it. I am doing what you always said i was good at and that is trying to be strong. If you could see me now you probably would not be so positive about that statement. The kids are hanging in there, Enzio goes to bed with your hats and yes i said hats every night. Calista is doing so well in school, i am so proud of her and i know you would be too. I know you are watching over us and keeping us safe. Calista made it to the spelling bee and is turning out to be a wonderful writer, she writes about you a lot. She is also going to be in modeling here soon. I wish you were here to see her. You were always such a proud dad and the greastest dad ever. I have my bad days and some good, but there is not a day that goes by that i dont think about you or think about what you would do or say in any situation. I have found peace in the fact that i will see you again one day but i have a lot to get done first and i know how much you loved me that you will be waiting for me, until then have fun and i know you, you will. i hope you are not laughing at me cause again i know you, and you probably are. For now, I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH. LOVE ALWAYS AND FOREVER YOUR LOVE PAULA.

They both miss you so very much and for Paula well she will never be the same but she is trying so hard but still not a day goes by that you are not talked about. Well Laron I hope you know that you are so very muched loved and missed by all who knew you.

Laron,
You were such a wonderful person and had an amazing ability to make anyone laugh. Please know that you and your father will be truly missed. I think of your family so very often. You were all like my second family when you lived in Michigan. Those memories will remain with me forever. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't pray for them. I hope to see them soon and hopefully get the opportunity to meet your new little niece, Jameson.
Love you all and think of you often!!

Jill and I got married on my birthday. We took her four kids, now my kids, and went to Puerto Rico. The ceremony was in San Juan overlooking the old part of the city. It was good to spend time with the whole family. Thankfully the wedding ring fits my finger and not my nose! It has five diamonds - one for each person I acquired.
I try to have dinner with your mom every now and then. With everyone's work schedule we just don't do it often enough.
You touched so many lives. I am amazed at the things that happen and I think Laron will find this funny, only you are not here to tell.
Bob Summers
June 19, 2006
Saturday was your birthday. I did what I told you I was going to do. I asked Jill to marry me! A knight in shining armor out fit on a white horse. You laughed when I told you my plans and would have been rolling on the ground! Two of her kids were there (Jacob and Jacinda), her mom, her sister that provided the horse, as well as your mom, Abby, Megan and your new niece - Jameson. I had to have witnesses and pictures otherwise no one would believe me.
I miss sitting at the coffee shop when I should have been working.

Laron, I want to thank you for blessing my life with your love and friendship. I miss you more than I can ever write or say.
I will always think of you every time I see a beautiful blue ocean because it will remind me of your beautiful blue eyes. And that smile..... How will I ever get over not seeing that beautiful smile???
What a great man you were. What a great father you were. You are missed Bubber. Now and always.... I love you dear son.
I will be here for your family. I will be here because I feel like I belong here. We will always think of you and will always love you eternally. Be happy now. Enjoy your new venture with your dad in heaven. Go fishing. Sit back and relax.
Watch over all of us and help us through this treacherous thing we call life. It has definitely been altered without your presence.
Help us adjust. Help us heal. We need your love as we always did.
Goodbye blue eyes. Goodbye dear son. I miss you and love you. Wickie

Laron and I first met when he was working at the salon on Kenny. My office was down the hall. We became best friends. Laron and I met 3 or 4 times per week for coffee. We often talked about friends and family. He regretted that so many were spread so far around the country from Maine to San Diego and Michigan to Florida. He always wanted to find time to visit. Laron was a loving and caring father, a great friend and confidant. He was one of those people you could discuss anything with. Laron would call at least once per day sometimes several times. “What ya doing?” My usual response was “working”. Friends such as Laron are hard to find and he will be greatly missed.

Words can't express the deep sorrow that I and many many others are feeling for your family. I find myself obsessively thinking about you with feelings of helplessness. Like many others, I have fond memories of the LeBay family. Although it was a brief flight through Athens for your family, I will always be grateful for the time I spent with you. The speeches were remarkable at the funeral. Your outlook on this trajedy is both uplifting and inspiring. I pray that you continue to stay strong and find peace. If there is anything that you need, please do not hesitate to call. 740.590.3996 xoxoxo

I've always wondered where you and your family ended up. I still remember the day you moved away. I've never forgotten the times we had on our mini bikes and your motorcycle and three-wheeler. I remember how much I enjoyed going to Lincoln Park with your Mom and Dad to your ballgames. Those are just a couple of many,many memories. I wish we could have kept in touch. Your childhood friend, Erik Hipsher

I hope that the years of life and love you shared will be a source of peace and reassurance for your entire family. My heart is filled with so many memories of your family and the closeness and happiness you shared with each other and with my family. I watched Laron grow from a small baby into a fine young man.

To all of Laron's family and friends - I am so sorry for your loss. I didn't know Laron well, but as a friend of the Panzera family, I know he was very loved. May you find peace through your sadness in the days ahead.

Laron was a very good and my loyalest friend. We first met in middle school when he just moved to Athens and joined the basketball team of which I was a member. On the bus to an away game we sat next to each other. Although he was shy I was able to get him to crack a smile. A very infectious smile which would turn into a contagious laugh. From that moment a long lasting friendship began. Despite the fact that he moved from Athens more than 15 years ago he always made an effort to keep in touch. Over the last 3-4 years we spoke daily. I will deeply miss our conversations and companionship. I know he loved his daughter, son, Paula and his family very much. My family and I want to send our heart felt sorrow to each of you. I will always cherish my memories of Laron and keep him in my heart. I LOVE YOU BUD!!!!!

Our deepest sympathies to your family. We remember seeing Laron frequently during the summer in Avon. He pitched baseball to the boys team a lot. He will be missed.

Tiffany, Tony and the LeBay family -
Our deepest sympathy on the loss of your brother. I have the memories of him helping Tiffany plant flowers in the back yard, helping run the garage sale, hanging out at the pool with us, and having pizza with a group of us. He will be missed by many.
