Michelle Best

It has taken me some time to sign in on Michelle's guest book. When I saw the notice in the Star Phoenix it set me back so bad. It was just a little over 3 months that we also lost our daughter. She was also born in 1982. As I read the notice it was like reading my daugher's notice. They both had the same out look on life, I also wrote that she was very creative and artistic. I know the pain that you are both feeling. Following is a message we received on Karls's guest book. It is so true.

A wife who loses a husband is called a widow. A husband who loses a wife is called a widower. A child who loses their parents is called an orphan. But,,,there is no word for a parent who loses a child, that's how awful the loss is.

Find strenght to move forward but know that she will never be forgotten.

She was there for the birth of my first born child. She will be dearly loved remembered and missed. I Love You Michelle forever and always.

To my good friend Audrey & her family,
There has not been a moment where I have stopped thinking of you during this difficult time, may God bring peace and comfort to you all.

"When the warmth of the sun touches my face,
I see your smile and feel your embrace.

I hear the whisper of love in the wind
And I know that you are close to me again

The rain speaks of tears and the thunder of pain,
But soon the sun comes the earth to reclaim.

As the days come and go and the world moves on,
I know you're still here, you'll never be gone.

On the night the Angel came and took your hand,
We cried as you left for an unknown land.

But Heaven rejoiced as you came into sight,
For your soul was a diamond, shining so bright!"

Michelle,

we all miss you dearly,
you know you will always be in our hearts and you will never be forgoten luv you forever and always <3

To dave Ritchie and Michelle's family.
