16 years ago you were stolen. It still hurts I can't even describe it. They say it gets easier but it doesnt. It comes in waves like the ocean. Some days you just do things and don't think than days like today happen and you are crying and upset. I often wonder who you would have grown up to be. You know we all love and miss you. We are all still hurting. Come see me in my dreams. Until we meet again. Never forgotten

CC,
Another birthday... You would have been 25.... I miss you so much... You know, I always say you are with us when we celebrate your life. Example, today it was suppose to rain off and on and once again, sunshine all day. It is because your spirit fills the sky and our hearts with sunshine and happiness of memories past. I miss you so much. Finally gave your mom back your pictures and finished her scrapbook. It took a long time, and you know why. Its hard to watch the videos and look at your pictures because I miss you so much. I would love for you to visit me in my dreams.. My daughter Jada knows who you are, she sees you picture and says CC and smiles... My son is too small yet, but he too will know of you... I like to think that when he is looking off in space and smiling or laughing he is seeing you... You know me, I believe in that stuff... I miss you so much and I love you... Happy 25th Birthday CC!!!!

July 16, 2011

dont think of her as gone away her journey has just begun life holds so many facets this earth is only one just think of her as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years think how she must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness can really pass away and think of her as living in the hearts of those she touched.....for nothing loved is ever lost and she was loved so much!!!!

Well CC, another year has passed and I still can't believe it. Now its been 3 years. I am actually pregnant, due in May and to think that you will never see her. I miss you so much. I haven't been to the cemetary in a while, but I am going tomorrow. I work today so I can't go today like I normally would have. To think of how much things have changed, how people aren't the same since you left us 3 years ago. How we all miss you. I can't tell you how much it still hurts till this day. I grieve you. I wish that you were still here with us. I know nothing can bring you back, but you live within my heart. I love you. Come see me in my dreams. I miss you.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

June 30, 2008

Ciara... I really wouldnt know how to begin this letter. I knew you and your family back when we all lived on Jackson Street. (And my younger brother had a crush on you)Ha,Ha. Our relationship was more of a hi and bye and if we bumped into each other we always held a conversation. My condolences go out to you and your family I work with your mother and your mother talks about you everyday. I always ask her questions about your trail and whats going on your mother always keeps me informed. I went to your mother apartment for the first time and every where I turned their were pictures of you every where in the house your family and your friends miss you alot I hope that justice will be served for you and your family, that way your mother can stop suffering and finally your soul may rest in peace. You may not be here in person but the legacy that you have left behind will always be rememberd with your friends and your family. You were a beautiful girl walking this earth, and now you are a beautiful angel smiling down upon us all.

My Condolences and my Sympathy goes out to the Deprill Family... Miss You Ciara...

Peace... Zynnia

I have been thinking about you alot CC so I just wanted to sign in. It has been awhile but you are never far from thought. The holidays are coming around and that always gets me thinking about all the people who have been part of my life and have now passed. I hope that you have found peace on the path you are on and that you are looking down and smiling on all of those who knew and loved you, especially your Mom and Brothers and Angelise and Anthony. The 2 of them are getting so big. Wish you were here (with your shoes kicked off)playing with the kids. Well Just wanted to say hi and send my love.

Well CC... Another birthday and your not here, I figure by the time they post this, it may be your birthday.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY.. Today, Dave, Theresa (you would have liked her), and Joanna came down from philly, Tashy was here and she cooked some rice, beans, chicken, steak, burgers, hotdogs, your mom made her potato salad that we all tore up, and I brought a cake for your birthday. I also took your mom flowers and I bought you flowers too.. They were pretty white roses with white babies breath.. They called out to me for you, even though you love colorful things, I thought that you would like these too... We were all together, it was nice, Nancy was there too, with her little girl, and your brothers of course.. :) Angelise and Anthony are both nuts.. Dave was swinging them by there legs.. Well, 21... To think what you would have done last night.. At least gone out and stuff.. You would be graduating from Temple in one year, to think of everything that was stolen from you and how you were stolen from us.. I love you CC..
Miss you and Happy Birthday
Until we meet again..

Ciara,
Hey girl.... I was thinking about you today. Amazed at how time flies so quickly. 21 years old on monday. Crazy , don't you think? You used to be so mad that your birthday was the last one to celebrate. Although in a way you should have enjoyed being younger for just a bit longer. There are so many things that remind me of you . When I cook and make the onion sauce you loved. You were the only one who would eat it and I loved that about you. When Andrea wakes up and has crazy hair, Nancy and I laugh and say it's like your's was. I work on Monday but my mom is going to mass and i'm gonna have her light a candle for you. Happy Birthday Ciara!!! I love you and miss you.

so much time has passed and yet it seems like yesterday that you were in the living room playing with Angelise and Anthony, shoes kicked off and smiling that pretty smile. I think of you so often and although it makes me sad that you are gone I am happy that I had the chance to know you in the short time that you were here. Crystal misses you so much. I know that she feels like she lost a sister. You were very special CC and I will do whatever I can to help Angelise and Anthony to know who you are. I will always cherish the moments when you would show up at the house to visit the babies. God bless you and always know how much you are missed.

cc,
Hey mama, wats up? Well its been a year . How time flew by, I remember that night when nancy called me hysterical. I was out with my friends and it was the shock of my life. It's one thing when you bury someone who's lived a full life, but horrible when it's someone who hasn't even begun to really live. Your death changed so many things. Nancy and I remember so many things about you. Some funny things some sad . Andrea is getting so big...I guess you know that already huh? It's been so long since you came to me in my dreams,why?. I miss you and love ciara. I'm not as angry anymore and I'm eating better :).Tomorrow is the Super Bowl, remember the big bag you came with that year? I thought you were moving in.Well my thoughts are rambling all over the place so I'm gonna end this for now ok? Love you and miss you.

Well CC, Christmas is coming in a few days.. Your mom's birthday just passed. It all seems like a dream that it has been almost 1 year and I can't be with you, give you a gift or anything. Me and your mom went to the cemetary and took you a little christmas tree..
:) We thought you may like that. I know that everyone misses you, Zayd, Angelise, Tony Jr, they are all growing so big. So much stuff has happened since you left us. It is crazy. I have my graduation and pinning ceremony on 1/26, I dedicated my nursing pin to you. I miss you so much. It is so hard without you for everyone. I can remember last year so well, laughing, smiling, and everything, hanging out at joe and jenn's, wow.. It is just so crazy and I wish you would be hear with us, I know you will be, but it won't be the same. I will be coming to see you maybe tomorrow, or sunday, or even on Christmas. I miss you CC, we all do. Wish you were here. You could help me wrap all of these presents than.. :) Like last year.
I love you CC and miss you
Talk to you again soon, come see me in my dreams
Love ya
Nadia

CC... I know its a day late... But I wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday... Yesterday it was suppose to rain... but it didn't, it was a beautiful day... We had a picnic for your birthday and we had a candle light vigil... It turned out well... I spoke, Tashy spoke, your mom spoke, Dave spoke, Tush spoke, and some others... Also, we played Derrik and Johns song they made for you and of course Tashy wanted to play 50 cent, the inside joke song, its your birthday... We sang happy birthday to you... You know the strange thing, when the sun was setting, I looked in the sky and it looked like a picture of a postcard that you would be with the sun beams and everything.. And I told people that was your bright smile shining down on us... I also hope that you liked the 4 balloons that I took you... You are beautiful and always will be... You are an angel to guide us through hard times... You are priceless, flawless and everything imaginable.. Your are my cousin, but I loved you like the little sister that I never had. You will always be special to me and to a lot of others to.. I have to say CC, my life will forever be changed by this.. No matter what I do, no matter what I say, I know nothing can bring you back, but I can say that I know that you hear me and that you are listening... I love you CC

I haven't been able to write so far because I didn't want to let you go. I realize now that Im not letting you go, you will be with all of us forever. I am so grateful that I was able to be a part of your life even though it wasn't nearly long enough. I thank God that Joe and Jenn brought you into our lives! You are in my heart and in my thoughts everyday. I love you; we all love you!
