Dear Mr.&Mrs.Partain,
I remember Rebecca from Mrs. Roberts' Kindergarten class. I thought she was so cute and you always dressed her in cute little dresses. She was shy but when it would be just us in the room she would talk to me. She had the softest voice. I told her one day I thought that she had an angel's voice it was so soft and sweet.
I am remembering you in my prayers.
Love and prayers,
"Miss" Vicky

Dear Jan, Eddie, Matt & Catherine:
I saw in a previous guestbook entry that Becca loved poetry. I ran across this poem and immediately thought of her. I would like to post this in her honor.

"CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN"
I see the countless Christmas Trees
Around the world below
With tiny lights
Like heaven's stars
Reflecting on the snow
The sight is so spectacular

Please wipe away that tear
For I am spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year
I hear the many Christmas songs
That people hold so dear
But the sounds of music can't compare
With the Christmas choir up here
I have no words to tell you
The joy their voices bring
For it is beyond description
To hear the angels sing

I know how much you miss me
I see the pain inside your heart
But I am not so far away
We really aren't apart
So be happy for me dear ones
You know I hold you dear
And be glad I'm spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year
I send you each a special gift
From my heavenly home above
I send you each a memory of
My undying love
After all "love" is the gift
More precious than pure gold
It was always most important
In the stories Jesus told
Please love and keep each other
As my Father said to do
For I can't count the blessing
Or love he has for each of you

So have a Merry Christmas
And wipe away that tear
Remember I am spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.

I hope that you find comfort in knowing that Becca is in the loving care of our heavenly father and that someday you will be reunited with her.
Sending All our love at this most difficult time.

I pray that God gives you both the divine inner strength to bring you through this tragedy.

Jamie Steinhaus

December 28, 2006

I can still see young, timid Becca coming over to our house in the creepy, caliginous forest for attempted "stay overs." She would make sure to bring her blanky along, and she refused to leave with out first being reassured by her mommy. After about four hours or so of afternoon hide-and-go-seek, when the light began to vanish somewhere in to the scary Harris County backyard, the stay-over attempts were most often counteracted with calls home for mommy or daddy to come pick her up. I was always so disappointed that my best friend wanted to go home. It was just that, for her, nothing compared to the comfort of being with her family. She would give me ultimatums, "you can spend the night at my house, instead, Jamie;" or, "I promise I will stay all night next time." Becca never lost that sensitive side, as she was a very a talented poetic artist. She loved her family and friends immensely, but she is now certainly in a place where she can feel the comfort of God's love throughout each millisecond of eternity, and she will never again be faced with the scary obscurities of the dark.
