Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year Blaine,
Another holiday that you spend watching over us,
And all of us remembering you in our own special way.
I know you can here our prayers, when we ask you to
Give Uncle Tony a helping hand up there, it's all new to him.
Show him how to keep everyone safe and ease the pain until we are with you again!
Kisses and squeezes to our Baby Burke.
Thanks for always being in our hearts.
Love you and forever in my heart,
Auntie Cindy

Merry Christmas Blaine
As I sit here missing your smile, your voice,
Your sense of humour, your charm, your wit,
Your way of making everything better. I realize
You are still here with me making me better.
Lots of hugs & kisses

Blaine my son it is hard to believe that 5 long years have come and gone since I have spoken to you. I miss you more than ever. I finally took your boat out fishing with Lola, she loved it.
My heart has a hole that will never heal in it

Well today it is 5 years since I lost my little brother. People say time flies, but it's been the longest 5 years of my life. Not a day, morning or evening goes by that I don't have a thought or memory about you buddy. They say time heals all wounds, well the piece of my heart that broke on. September 22 2012 will never heal.
Love you Blaine and miss you Cory

Gone is the face we loved so dear,
Silent is the voice we loved to hear,
Too far away for sight or speech,
But not too far for thought to reach,
We remember Blaine who once was here,
And who, though absent, is just as dear.
Always in our hearts,
Auntie Janice & Uncle Art

You've been gone for five years now
Sometimes it feels like yesterday
Those days are hard when your memory
Cause tears to well behind my eyes
I remember all we shared together
As they fall silently down my cheek
I've always heard time is supposed to heal
Make the pain a little easier to bare
I don't see how that will ever be the case
How missing you hurt any less
Especially when recently quite often
I find the rough days are more frequent
You being gone is overwhelming me
Sadness tends to surround my heart
So many moments I wish you were here
Spending time with loved ones left behind
All I hope is one day there will be a time
The hard days will come farther apart
Miss you everyday
Wish you were here
Love Amy

My heart is full of memories,
With pride I speak your name,
Though life goes on without you,
It will never be the same.

Blaine,
It's been 5 long years,
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
Gone is the face we love so dear,
Silent is the voice we love to hear,
Too far away for sight or speech,
But not too far for my thoughts to reach,
Forever in my heart,
Love Auntie Cindy

Happy Birthday Blaine!
I am sending a dove to heaven,
With a parcel on its wings,
Be careful when you open it,
It's full of beautiful things,
Inside are a million kisses,
Wrapped up in a million hugs,
To say how much I miss you ,
And to send you all my love!
Always in my heart,
Love always Auntie Cindy

I wish. I wish upon a star
For my dreams to carry me
To where you are
To hear your voice. To sense your touch
To feel you near would mean so much
I know your never far away
And your with me every single day
So I'm wishing now with all my might
That you will come to me
In my dreams tonight
Happy Birthday Blaine
Miss and love you

I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought of you yesterday, and will tomorrow too. I think of you in silence, and make no outward show. For what it meant to lose you, only those who love you know. Remembering you is easy, I do it every day. It's just the heartache of losing you that will never go away.
Love Grandma

I laid awake tonight and thought about you. As I was shedding some tears, thinking about memories past, how much I miss you and how I wish you were here, my little man walked into my room, "mommy? ... cuddles???" Yeah Max ! I'd love some. Made me remember, you're never really gone. And you'll always be here for me and my babies!
Love and miss you always!

Blaine,
I'll remember you....
In the colors of a sunset,
In the comfort of my dreams,
In the memory of a song.
In the pages of a scrapbook
Filled with pictures of your life,
And always more than anything,
I'll remember you in your love that still lives within my heart.
Love Always and forever in my heart!

I sat with you today you know,
I sat right in your chair,
I know I could not see you,
But I knew that you were there.
I couldn't here your voice at all,
But I heard every word that was spoken,
I sat with you today you know,
Calm, but yet so heart broken.
I know you follow me around,
I have known it from the start,
But sometimes I am afraid to look,
So heavy is my heart.
I love more and more each day,
And beg for you to know,
I find it harder every day,
Just to let you go.
I'll sit with you tomorrow,
If that's okay with you,
Sometimes it feels the only thing
I still know what to do.
Miss and love you
Love always Mom

There is a special Angel in Heaven
that is part of me.
It is not where I wanted him
but where God wanted him to be.
He was here just a short time
like a night time shooting star.
And though he is in Heaven
he isn't very far.
He touched the heart of many
like only an Angel can do.
So I send this special message
to the Heaven up above.
Please take care of my Angel
and send him all my love. Love always Mom

Blaine,
Three years have past, they say time lessens the pain.
Memories are what I find lessen the pain.
We have been scrapbooking, and your pictures are plenty.
We relive each moment, one of my favorite memories,
Although there are many, is the one of the water pail at Maple Beach. It always brings joy to my heart. Thank you for my memories, thank you for watching over us, Miss you!
Love Always and Forever In My Heart, Auntie Cindy

Although today marks another birthday past,
Frozen in time at 24 you'll always be.
Know that I think of you each and every day,
You're smiling face I wish I could see.
The sound of your voice, your laughter
Is something I'll forever miss.
Wishing you a heartfelt happy birthday.
*hugs & kisses* love your big Sis.

My dear Blaine
What once was such a happy day
brings many painful sorrows
a day when silent tears are shed
for all your lost tomorrows
No special birthday cards or gifts
just a message full of love
to say that not a day goes by
without precious thoughts of you
And as time goes by, it seems
that your missed more and more
but I know your with our loved ones
and you are being loved and cared for by the angels
Hugs and Kisses,
Miss and Love you so very very much
Mom

Taking Max to visit your grave side tomorrow for the first time. Wish you were here to meet him. Can't believe how long it's been. To think - Haleigh was Max's age when you left us. I have only finally started to be able to talk about you aloud. Still not in front of everyone - mostly Haleigh and Max. And it still brings me to tears sometimes. I know you come and visit them - so that helps a lot. Anyways, as always, love and miss you every single day.

Merry Christmas Blaine! The photographs I cherish. That surround me every day. Help to keep you close to me, although you're far away. Now Christmas time is here again, and although you're in my heart. It's just one of the hardest times, for us to be apart. But memories will bring me strength. And love will see me through. My tears will all be fleeting, and I will smile again for you. Love and miss you always Mom

Christmas is here once again, and once again I find myself with a heavy heart. We celebrate the birth of Christ with our family and the little ones are excited to open the presents they receive. I will honour your memory by lighting a candle along with all those who join me. I am sure we will reminisce of Christmas's past. I know you will be watching over us, as you know you are forever in our hearts. If it's at all possible please try and lift the heaviness from our hearts with fond memories. Merry Christmas my dear Blaine. Love Always and forever in my heart Auntie Cindy

Another year has come and gone, since the day you passed away. Your memory has crossed my mind, at least once every day. I cannot begin to count, how many tears I've shed. Or the things I meant to say. All those words I left unsaid. Always you are in my thoughts. I love you so very dearly. More often I wish I'd told you. How much you mean to me. It breaks my heart in two. That your passing had to happen. You are the best little brother, A big sister could imagine.

My Dear Blaine,
The words I am writing are not words you haven't heard me say to you in my prayers.
I write them to let family and friends know how I feel, and it's ok to feel happy when we see someone or something that reminds us of the joy you shared with each of us. May it be a boy on a skateboard, a young man with his dog, or the kindness we see in others. It is ok to feel sad, shed a tear, or even have a good cry, because you are not with us in body, but to remember you are forever in our hearts and therefore you are always with us. They say years are just numbers, but for me two years ago is a memory when my Granddaughter received her very special angel, as we all did. For that reason I will celebrate by remembering, all you have meant to me, the child you were and the man you became. Not a day goes by that I don't feel your presence. I love you forever and always in my heart. Auntie Cindy

Blaine,
I spent my morning looking back on things I had written after you passed. All the fun things we did, the cute and sweet things you did for me, and all the characteristics and silly querks that made you you. It makes me sad but at the same time it makes me happy. Happy that we had so many fun stories and good times. I am happy that I can look back on them and smile. You were absolutely hilarious. Made me laugh countless times. But at the same time you were so sweet and considerate and had such a good heart. You were so hardworking and you taught me a lot about life and I will never forget the things I learned from you. I would like to try and not be sad today, instead think of all the good memories I have, that can never be taken away. I would like to do something for you today so I am going fishing. As you know I probably wont catch one but that okay, I know you'll be with me and that's all I need.
I love you.
Debbie Letham

Dear Blaine, sad are the hearts that love you. Silent the tears that fall. Living our lives without you is the hardest part of all. Those special years will not return, when we were all together. But the love we hold within our hearts, will be with us forever.

I though of you today,but that is nothing new,
I thought of you yesterday,and the days before that too.
I think of you in silence, I often speak your name,
All I have are memories, and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake, from which I will never part,
God has you in his hands, I have you in my heart.
Happy Birthday Blaine,
Love You, Always In My Heart,

Today would have been your 26th birthday. I feel a warmth around me
like your presence is so near,
And I close my eyes to visualize
your face when you were here,
I endure the times we spent together
and they are locked inside my heart,
For as long as I have those memories
we will never be apart,
Even though we cannot speak anymore
my voice is always there,
Because every night before I sleep
I have you in my prayer. Hugs and kisses my son. Love Mom

To believe is knowing we have our own Angels watching over us.
To believe is knowing our strength to get through each day without you is a gift.
To believe is having you in our daily thoughts and prayers.
To believe is knowing you are always by our sides.
To believe is our smiles when we feel your presence.
To believe is knowing we will be together again.
Love you, Always in my Heart, Auntie Cindy

Although we never actually met, I feel like I know your spirit through all the memories I have been told by your amazing family. They talk alot about you and what a great person you were. It makes me very sad that I never got to know you but please know that just because we didn't meet in person, doesn't mean that I can't have the deepest of sadness because you're gone. Your family is incredibly special to me and therefore, so are you! Your picture hangs in Kemery's room because when she's old enough, we want her to feel like she knew you too!
Cousins first. Friends forever.

A year has come and gone. It isn't getting any easier. But I am finding myself hanging out with your friends more and I like that. Haleigh is getting so big and smart, and I don't know if it's just me wanting to believe it or if it's real, but I find her pointing to your picture an awful lot as if she were telling me that you're here. I guess if I choose to believe it then that's all that matters. Sometimes when she wakes up she stands up and points to your picture on her dresser as if to tell me you were there in her dream, I ask her if Uncle Blaine visited her in her dream again and she just smiles. I find myself laughing a lot lately though just thinking about things you did, or we did or said. I try putting it into words out loud - even just to Haleigh, but I guess I'm still not ready to talk about you - cause every time I think about opening my mouth I start to tear up. I hope one day comes that it will be easier, until then- you are always in my thoughts and always on my mind. Love you always.

well brother the first year was hard and I don't think its going to get any easier as the years go on. always in my thoughts and my heart blaine. love you CORY

To My Nephew,
I believe the worst thing in life is losing your child.
And when your Sister and Brother lose their son it is no less devastating.
It's been a year since I received that unforgettable phone call.
It's been a year since our lives changed forever.
It's been a year since I heard your voice speak to your loved ones.
It's been a year since I have seen your smile light up the room.
It's been a year since I have heard your laughter, and those laughing with you.
It's been a year since I was able to tease you about little things.
It's been a year since I realized I never told you how proud I was of you.
It's been a year since God took you from us.
And it's been a year since Heaven became an even better place.
Forever and Always in my Heart.
Love you Auntie Cindy

As Kari's Special Day is getting closer I know it is hard on her not having you here.Do me a favor, and give her a little extra touch in your own way. Continue to give us strength.

Today is my and Blaine's 3 year anniversary. I remember the day he asked me to be his girlfriend like it was last week. I couldn't believe how lucky I was that Blaine Letham wanted to be my boyfriend. From the moment I met him I liked everything about him, we had so much in common.
In the first year of our relationship I learned that Blaine was an honest, caring and hardworking person. He loved his family and friends and never took them for granted, he knew what was important in life. By our first anniversary I knew I wanted to marry him someday. He was the most amazing person I had ever met, and I still always considered myself super lucky that I had Blaine as a boyfriend, my partner in crime. On our first anniversary he took me to celebrations, we saw the Buddy Holly show, although neither of us actually knew who Buddy Holly was, we thought it must have been fate that he was a rock and roll legend, (because we both liked rock music).
On our second anniversary Blaine was settled into his house, he cooked me dinner after I got home from school. Blaine loved to cook and there was something about his food that was always extra delicious, I don't know whether it was the spices he used, or if it was because it was made with love, :) anything he cooked was always amazing.
Blaine taught me alot about life. 3 years ago on this day I had no idea how much Blaine would enrich my life, and now on this day of our 3 year anniversary, I know that I am still just as lucky as ever to have been able to fall in love with such an amazing person.
I'll always love you Blaine, Happy 3 years sweety
