Kirsch Kristina Kember

Not a day goes by that you are not thought of. Your memory lives on in the hearts of those who know and love you! The kids and I come to see you often and bring you flowers! I hope you can see how much you are missed. I know you are watching over everyone and smiling with that vibrant smile that you always had. Love you!

I still can't believe it has been almost a year already. Seems like yesterday we was sitting down cutting up and taking shots of patron! Not a day goes by that i don't think about you! love ya boo!

Kirsch...I have to agree with the person below. We think of you all the time and we use your Kirsch-isms quite often..lol You are sooooo missed my dear. I look at your picture everyday and can't believe you are no longer here with us. xoxoxoxo

Kirsch, There isn't a day that goes by that we don't think of you. Your memory lives as VIBRANT as you did! We miss you and your Kirsch-isms.....lol xoxoxoxo

Kirsch, my favorite memory of you is a day when we were kids cracking pecans in MawMaw & PawPaw's backyard at the old house. I had my first camera and I wanted take a picture of you. You ran over to statue of Mary and you put your arm around her, and I captured the mischievous grin on your face. I smile every time I look at that picture, still in MawMaw's collection on top of the TV. It holds even more significance now. Save a seat at the kid's table, next to Jerry, Jane and PawPaw. I will miss you.

A Poem for the Grieving

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there. I did not die.

To Goose,

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Kirsch you will be dearly missed. My heart goes out to your family. You were my best friend in middle school and I will never forget all the fun times we had down at Blackwater River. I enjoyed spending time with your family and you will always be in my thoughts. Thank-you for all the great memories.

To the Anderson and Kember Family. May God wrap his loving arms around you at this time of sorrow. Kirsch will always be remembered for being a great Mother to Blatiney and Brody. BoJack, if there is ever anything you need please feel free to call me anytime. You know how much I love those babies.

Marty & Sharie Longa.

Pennyand Family, I'm very sorry for your loss.May GOD be with you during this difficult time.

"May They Not Be Forgotten"

Brother when you weep for me,
Remember that it was meant to be.
Lay me down and when you leave,
Remember I'll be at your sleeve.

In every dark and choking hall,
I'll be there as you slowly crawl.
On every roof in fallen rain,
I'll hold your coat and you will know.


In cellars hot with searing heat,
At windows where a gate you meet,
In closets where young children hide,
You know I'll be there at your side.

The house from which I now respond,
Is overstaffed with heroes gone.
Men who answered one last bell,
Did the job and did it well.

As firemen, we understand
That death's a card dealt in our hand-
A card we hope we never play,
But one we hold there anyway.
That card is something we ignore,
As we craw across a weakened floor.
For we know that we're the only prayer
For anyone that might be there.

So remember, as you wipe your tears,
The joy I know throughout the years,
As I did the job I loved to do,
I pray that thought will see you through.

To the family of Kirsch

We met Kirsch when she was in high school dating "Bo Jack". She was a beautiful young lady, and we enjoyed the times we spent together at football games and various other activities.

The last time I saw Kirsch was as she was leaving the church after our Advent Reconciliation Service at which Blaintney celebrated the Sacrament of First Reconciliation. I will never forget the wonderful warm smile as a "proud Mom" Kirsch had on her face as she left the Church that cold December night.

May she rest in peace and the perputal light shine on her always.

Blaintey - "Miss Myra" as well as the "First Eucharist Class" at St. Gabriel sends their love and support.

Wade & Myra Tircuit

Joyce and family, my prayers are with you. We had so many pleasures with Kirsch and thier softball days. Can't forget about those dill pickles that she loved so much. We loved her.

I met Kirsch for the first time when I was at BoJack's house and she was comming to pick the kids up, and Brody D said, "Ms. Lacey, I want you to come meet my mommy!" He was so excited to introduce me...he had the biggest smile on his face. Of course, I was nervous because it was kind of a wierd way of meeting your boyfriend's ex-wife for the first time, but she had the biggest smile on her face and she acted as excited as Brody was to meet me. Over the next year, we were involved in each others lives on a regular basis with Blatiney and Brody. If she needed something she would just call and I made sure I took care of it and when I contacted her she did the same. But it wasn't just about the kids, we formed a friendship that was hard to understand. We never hung out, but knew that if the circumstances were different and as time passed we could all probably done things together. I see Kirsch in her kids everyday and miss her dearly. I lost a friend, a partner in rasing her beautiful Blatiney and Brody and someone very dear to me.

I will always be here for Blatiney and Brody and take very good care of them, and I will be there for the rest of your family whenever they may need me Kirsch...I miss you very much...and we will never let the memory of you as a wonderful mother, perish in your children's lives.

Joyce and family, we are heartbroken, and we love you all. Thank God for Kirsch and all the joy she brought to everyone. May God bless Kirsch and her family and friends. Ms. Kitts sends her condolences. Love always ....

We at CVT will miss Kirsch so much because she was a part of our CVT family and we loved her. If there is anything we can do for you at any time, please let us know.

Kirsch, I can't believe you are gone. Who am I gonna vent to? even though I have known you for a short time, you always made me laugh. I will keep your memory alive for Drew and Kaitlyn and keep the promise I made to you!!! Watch over all those that loved you. Love, Tiff
May God bless Kirsch's family!!!

To the family of Kirsch, I had the privalege of knowing Kirsch for many years and always enjoyed her presence, we always talked about her beautiful children and her pursuing her nursing career, as a mother and nurse myself I was so proud of her determination.

Our sympathy and prayers to all of you during this sad time in your lives. All of you are in our thoughts today and will be always.

From: St.Theresa After School Care Staff

I don't know your family and I did not know Kirsch, but I was drawn to this story because she and I share so many similarities. We are the same age, both mothers, I'm a registered nurse (graduated from OLOL), and I travel the roads that she had the accident on daily as a home health nurse serving the White Castle/Plaquemine area...Her death just touches my heart so much, it could have just as easily been me and the story would have read much the same. I pray for your family and for her children. God can and will comfort you and fill the voids you all will certainly have, I will keep you all in my daily prayers. God bless you all.

To all who knew and loved her...My heart is saddened by the loss of Kirsh who loved life, family, and friends so much.... Proverbs 3:9-"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path." Jesus is a friend that sticks closer that anyone in our life. If you trust Him, He will give you the strength to live with this awful hurt and pain. You all are in our thoughts and prayers...May God bless each of you.

To the entire Kember family: It is hard to express ones feeling at a time like this. The loss of a daughter and granddaughter is beyond the understanding of most people. Having lost a daughter-in-law and grandchild, I do know how you are feeling. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Goose (Jarred) and the family of Kirsch,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We love you Goose and are here for you. We are very sorry for your loss. Sending you all our deepest sympathy.

I was saddened to hear of Kirsch's passing. She was always such wonderful person and will be missed by everyone who knew her. My prayers are with her children and her entire family.

May her soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed rest in peace.

I had the privilege of meeting Kirsh just recently through Goose's family. Those times I spent around her I could see her love and joy for life. She was a pleasure to be around. She loved her kids, her family and Goose very dearly. She will be missed my many family, friends, and numerous loved ones. I pray for all who mourn her. Please keep her alive in your hearts and she will be around you always and forever. I send my deepest sympathy to all of you...

Kirsh's Family and Friends:

Please don't cry. I know you are scared.
I left you alone and you were not prepared.
But I saw a bright light that was so full of grace
So I walked towards it until I saw Jesus' face
I didn't mean to leave or make you sad and cry
I know you don't understand. No one knows why
But It'll be alright now, I just want you to know
I will always be with you no matter where you go
I'll be close by, if you need me just pray
Remember I am only, just a heaven away
I will live in your heart and in your memory
Just close your eyes and you will see me
Remember my smile, and also my laugh and kiss
I know these things you certainly will miss
Jesus said I couldn't stay I had to go alone
He prepared a place for me and he calls it home
Now I am an angel, I just wish you could see
How beautiful I am, since he set me free

In loving Memory of Kirsh K. Kember

To the family of Kirsch

I am so sorry for your lost. I remember seeing Kirsch as a baby and had not seen her in years. The pictures I have seen recently show what a beautiful young lady she turned out to be. I can only imagine the pain you are feeling and pray that God give you strength and courage a day at a time. With heartfelt sympathy,

I'm so sorry to all of us who knew and loved Kirsch, especially Keety and Joyce. What a great spirit she was here on earth and will continue to be! To all the Kember family, including my sons Kolby and Quinn, for all the losses you are bearing, may you hang in there and press on in your life!!

Keety, Penny, Janice, and all the family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you at this time of your lives. God needed an angel and took her to help Him watch over you all and to do His work.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE FAMILY. IM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

I was so shocked and saddened to read about Kirsch. We worked together at B.R. Ear Nose & Throat. She was such a sweet person and there was nothing she couldn't do! Blaitney was her heart and she was such a good Mother. I saw pictures from her wedding when she returned from her honeymoon and she made such a beautiful bride! I was just thinking of how I use to tease her because she would come to work without her makeup on and she was so great at the "5 minute makeup!" She was such a pretty girl . I am so sorry for your loss ! May God be with with and your family through this difficult time.

Keety, Joyce and family:
We are so heartbroken at the loss of your precious daughter Kirsh. We cannot imagine the pain you are in but we pray that you will find some comfort knowing how loved your beautiful daughter was. You have our deepest sympathy.

Penny, Keety, Ryder, and All ...
I can only imagine what you all must be going through at this time in your lives. Kirsch was such a special girl.
