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.

Benji,
I know that there is nothing no one can say to ease the pain of losing your child. It's hard when there is no answers to why, but keep your faith in God and he will get you through. Remember that you have your family and friends there to help you also. I don't know what is like to lose a child but i can relate to your daughter losing a brother and if i can do anything or say anything to help bring any of ya'll comfort just let me know. From what i've read about Shane, you'll forever have memories and hold on to those happy times. May God Bless You and all of your family.

Tamara, Benji and Family I'm so sorry for your lost... I wrote this poem for Shane...
Angel On A Cloud
When I picture you up there sitting on a cloud, In my heart I want to scream out loud, With your handsome face staring me down, I think of your death and I want to frown, Wherever I am I know you are there helping me in my time of despair, But still I wonder will I ever know why you were taken from us so suddenly so. I know they will miss holding you in there arms, Now all I can ask as you watch over us, Please help us live in harmony, Please help us hold are heads held high, For now Shane I must say so long, we will think of you often, as we try to go on, Always know how much We care, and please great us when we get up there......
You will forever be missed

Dear Benji, Tamara & Family
While the loss of a loved one is never easy, it is hardest when they are taken from us way too soon. Your recent loss of Shane, who left us at such a youthful age, is the hardest loss for which there is so painful a reminder of what might have been. We offer you our sincere condolence and deepest sympathy. May the outpouring of sympathy, the kind acts of friends and the comfort of knowing that your loss is felt by us and so many others help you through this difficult time. We ask God's blessings on you. May you find the courage and strength to move forward in peace and confidence and in knowing that his short life was a life well-lived through his family's support and love. Wishing all of you comfort in friendship and hope in prayer.
In God's Love,
Jody, Kelly, Lindsay & Landon Hardee

There are no words that we can say to you to ease your pain, other than to let you know that God will be there when no one else can. His comfort is the only thing that will get you through the next chapter in your life. We wonder why us? but just remember "God has a book already written for us". His word will bring you more comfort than any word that can be spoken from anyone. Like I have told you all, we are only a phone call away and in the coming days, please don't hesitate to call us for anything. We are praying for peace and comfort in your hearts and we love you all dearly!!

Shane,
There are no words that can describe the pain your family and friends are feeling right now. You were such a good young boy and you lived life to the fullest. We won't ever understand why you had to go so early. All we know is that you are in a better place and that's right where God wanted you. You lived your life here on earth and you touched so many lives. I'm glad I got to spend as much time with you as I did. I never had any brothers or sisters as my own. I took you in as mine and I will forever consider you my little brother. I know you are in a better place now than this world could ever offer you. Time will help heal the pain but the scars will forever still remain. When Kaylee called me Sunday right after you left in the ambulance I rushed to your house to be with her and I just knew you were strong enough to make. You did make it, you made it home where you belonged all along. It wasn't in God's will for you to stay on this earth any longer. I love you Shane and you will always be like a little brother. It still feels like a bad dream that I'm waiting to wake up from. I love you so much and I will miss you forever!
