Its been really hard losing you phyiscally in my life, but I know in spirt your gaurdian angle is looking over me everyday! They say everything happens for a reason! Its really hard to know that my beautiful, gorgeous smiling BFF had to go so early. Letting go can be the hardest thing todo, you can say goodbye but to have the feeling of you being gone is hard to believe, but the memories we have made will last a lifetime and im holding on forever!! Thats what BFF's do! Its really hard for me cause I need my girl to talk to when im feeling down or just need a hug! To share stories and confide in each other or to talk about the people we love, I'm so greatful to have had you in my life and we will see each other again.I have made so many great friends because of you and I love that your family and I have grown even closer, we all miss you every second, minute and hour of everyday! What memories we have shared while you were here with me will never be forgotten! I just want to say cheers and I will make a toast and throw some glitter in the air to having such a great friend in my life, until we meet agian!! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER TORRIE!!!

I love you Miss Dorkins. I wish you could come over so I could perm your hair again. Even though I told you I would never do it again because it smelt so terrible! I would give anything to spend the afternoon with you in that way, even if it smelt bad! ;-)

I will always remember the fun times we had together when we were kids ~ hanging out at your house, our michigan trip, walking main street, cheapskate, your fried zucchini & egg rolls :) Hugs, love and many many prayers for your family, friends & DJ. May you rest in peace beautiful!!!

You were in my dreams last night. They are vague, yet your presence was strong. I miss you and love you so. It is such a shame that this happened. I wonder how long until reality truly sets in?

It seems like you were gone from earth too soon.
Heaven must have needed another angel.

July 6, 2012

In the bottom of an old pond lived some water beetles who could not understand why none of their group ever came back after crawling up the lily stems to the top of the water. They promised each other that the next one who was called to make the upward climb would return and tell what had happened to them. Soon one of them felt an urgent impulse to seek the surface; she rested herself on the top of a lily pad and went through a glorious transformation which made her a dragonfly with beautiful wings. In vain she tried to keep her promise. Flying back and forth over the pond, she peered down at her friends below. Then she realized that even if they could see her they would not recognize such a radiant creature as one of their number.

The fact that we cannot see our loved ones or communicate with them after the transformation which we call death is no proof that they cease to exist.

Tenaya Anderson

Dear Jeanie,
I am so sorry for your loss . No one expects to lose a child and since I have a son,, age 37, I cannot imagine losing him. We worry about our children from the day they are born and pray they will be safe, happy, and make the right decisions. Nothing prepares us for this and there are no words to express our grief and sorrow. I extend my deep sympathy to you in this very difficult time.

Sandra Rolf

Torrie ~
I never thought that I would be writing an entry in your guestbook. I took for granted that you would always be around. I still cannot believe that this is real. I will never forget you and all the times we shared together through the last 14 years. We were always magnetized to one another regardless of the city we were in. I will never make egg rolls again or listen to 'Glitter in the Air' without you on my mind.

Donna Grubb
