Not sure what to say?

Every once in a while, someone comes into your life, and changes it. As I can see, Stacey did that for many, and I was no different. Although i only knew her for a short time, when her life was rough, she still had a smile. She had a kind word, when times were rough for me, no matter how her day was going.

And i just wanna say this to her family, especially you, Tyler, She loved you all very much. She talked about you guys all the time. She bragged about how young her grandparents looked in the pictures she had, She bragged about how smart her son Tyler is. Sometimes times of grief can overcome us, and no matter how much someone tries to help, The help that we need is inside of us, we have to reach way down deep and grab at them straws, Stacey just kept getting the short ended one's, and she didn't know how to deal with it anymore. I lived very close to her in her last days, and I loved her like a sister. Thank you Stacey, for making me realize that angel's do watch over you, even after they're gone. Even though i know, you will live in my heart forever.

Love Tonya

We were so sorry and saddened to hear of Stacy's death. My heart goes out to all of you. The grief when losing a child has to be beyond comprehension.

Tom, I think of the beautiful song, "If You Could See Where I Am, You Wouldn't Cry", sung by your nephew's group, and hope it brings comfort to all of you.

Know that we're thinking of you and that you're in our prayers.

Love,
Joyce & Larry

Hi Tom & Sharon, I am so sorry about your loss; Stacy was a beautiful young lady and I know Tyler was the love of her life. Life is difficult and challenging and we don't always understand the reasons why things happen.

Tom, Sharon and Matt, it isn't easy putting in to words the sorrow you feel in the passing of someone dear. However there is comfort in knowing that this sorrow will pass and there will be a joyful celebration "WHEN WE ALL GET TO HEAVEN"! As we grieve with you today, we are praying for you and ask that God will comfort you with these thoughts in this time of sorrow! We Love You, Don and Eileen.

There are people that touch us in our lives that perhaps we miss at that moment when there wings gently brushed us.
There are people we think of at times and we wonder if at that very moment they are sharing the same thoughts with us.
Although many miles may separate us, and the time passes quickly, we can never forget those moments that have been so delicately placed in our hearts.

Stacey, you touched me with your courage and beauty and at those times when I would reflect on family – I often thought of you. You have indeed touched us all, you were that very special moment that brushed by us, and you will live forever within us.

To Uncle Tom, Aunt Sharon, Matt, Grandma and all the Family - I look forward to that time when all of us will get together and have one big family reunion, a King sized celebration, and Stacey will be right there in the middle of all of it.

To Tyler: Be strong little Man, you have a very loving family - hold on to them, and they will help you hold onto your memories.

I pray now that the grace of God will be with each of you at this moment, I pray that His love will comfort you and His compassion helps you hold those memories tight in your heart. For it was God that allowed each of us to be touched by one of His very special angels named Stacey Lynne (Taylor) Daugherty.

As we sang, "I Bowed My Knees and Cried Holy" at our last LEGACY concert, I was overcome with the assurance that Stacey, my dear, sweet cousin was there in heaven experiencing that very joy. Tom, Sharon, Tyler, and Grandma Opal we grieve with you, but we also rest and rejoice in the sure and certain hope that we will be joined together once again in heaven - where there will be no more tears or sickness or pain or death. We love you all and are praying for you.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
