To the family of Kristy Dean Edward I am sorry to hear about your loss but just remember one thing God does not make a mistake.Kristy was a wonderful and very sweet young lady.I got to know her through God I watched her life grow with God.She was a person that all she let her light shine where ever she was. Kristy was at Mitchell Chapel Church one Sunday and I was there to and I felt someone watching me so I turned around and it was her she juat smiled at.So after church I went over to her and we just hugged.Kristy went to school with my son.I love her as if she was my own.May God continue to Bless yall and remember one thing when your feeling all alone at night and it seem like no one is there God is always there.Weeping may in dew for a night but Joy cometh in the morning

MY BOYS, SAMMY, KEITH AND KEVIN, SOMEONE SAID THE OTHER DAY THAT " IF YOU COULD SEE ME NOW" YOU WOULD SEE NO PAIN JUST PEACE. WHEN YOU THINK OF KRISTI THINK OF THE GOOD TIMES THAT YOU GUYS SHARED WITH HER AND THINK ABOUT WHERE SHE IS RIGHT NOW. SHE FOUND FAVOR WITH GOD AND HE WRAPPED HER UP AND SWEPT HER AWAY TO BE WITH HIM. ISN'T THAT SOMETHING? JUST IMAGINE THE JOY THAT SHE IS EXPERIENCING RIGHT NOW. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES AND REMAIN CLOSE. MONIQUE "NIKKI" AND I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH AND CALL US IF YOU NEED ANYTHING. GOD IS A WONDER IN OUR LIVES. IT IS AMAZING HOW HE COMPLETES US.

Well I'm taking your advise and I'm praying for your family. I feel so blessed to have had you in my life. God needed another angle to come home and he requested you. To the family I will be praying for you and God Bless You!

Kristy, my heart is torn, all I can see is that bubbly smile and that personality, everytime you would see me you would ask me the same three questions and I would give you the same three answers and we would both laugh, now my answers have changed, I just wish I could of told you in person the next time, but you already know and that's I'm sure of. I miss you country girl. The whole family is in my prays.

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.

I had the pleasure of knowing Kristy since Elementary school. She was one of the nicest people I know. Everytime I saw her she always had a smile on her face that lit up everyone around her. My prayers go out to her husband, son and extended family. This is a very sad time for all of us. Just know that she is with our Lord in peace.
