Kylie Carpenter

October 25, 2023

Hey Gmaw, it's me Kylie. Your Chickadee. I have been looking for your obituary for years and could never find it but I am so glad that I did. Life has been pretty crazy since you've been gone. I am 22 now. I know that is crazy to me too. Crystal, she has 5 kids now. I know lol. She got married a year after you died. So Brittany got married and has 2 kids. Heather just recently got married. Most importantly I got married too. I know I can't believe it. I met Andrew a little over 3 years ago and he has been the absolute joy in my life. He helped me heal from everything and he is the one who made me whole again. So yes, I am not a Smith anymore, I am a Carpenter now. I do not have any kids yet, but I will let you know that I am going to be graduating college next year. I know you would've loved to be there to see that, and I wish you could. It's hard to believe that you've been gone 10 years now. It doesn't seem that long ago. It feels like just yesterday when we came over that night for cake and I told you that I loved you and that I would see you that weekend. I didn't know then that was the last time I would ever talk to you. I remember that day over and over. I wish I could have spent more time with you that night, but I am really glad I got to tell you that I loved you one last time. I miss you more than words can express. So many people have went on Gmaw. It felt like a time period in my life was just nothing but sadness because of the people I loved kept dying around me. Dad died 3 years after you did. That night changed me forever, I just remembered the pain I felt when I found out about you, and it was amplified since that was my father. It was a hard road to recover from that but after a couple years I finally was able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Everything was going great and then the one thing I never thought would happen so fast happened. Meme died. It still hurts even typing it. She died last year. It came out of the blue, but we knew it was coming. I tried to get to her so I could be there when she took her last breath, but I was just around the corner when Papaw called. That day wrecked me because I kept thinking of the pain that I felt from losing you and Dad. I lost a lot of important people to me. More that I should have but I am glad that you all are up there in Heaven with each other. It gives me peace every day knowing that. I wish you were here Grandmaw. There will always be that missing piece of me that was broken since you left. I know that I will get to see you again one day and I hope I can get the biggest hug from you ever and that we can make up for lost time. I love you so much Gmaw.
