What's up pops, I don't even know if you can see this. Writing here just makes it feel like I can actually speak with you. At times, I feel this is all just a dream I will one day wake up from. Your voice began fading away when I was about 8, and my memories with you as well. For a while there was just anger because it hurts. I see how till this day people speak of you in such high praise. I just wish I could experience that joy. I have so many images of you where I see your smile, but I also see the images where you looked lost. I know there was so much more going on that I don't know about. It's just hard. I wish you were here. I know we can't go backwards, but I feel this void that won't fill. What do I do? I've lived many years (18 now) but technically I'm still so young. I have to wait a long time before I get my talk with you. There are so many things to discuss. I think of the moments we should be having. You would've had a ball with me and Adrian. I do some drawing stuff , and your other big headed son can get down in the kitchen. He does some dumb stuff though I swear. You would laugh to much at em. I started to see our family and your old friends. I sit back and envision you there causing scenes and making everyone laugh. Still it all feels fake, as if I'm in a movie. I feel like you couldn't make this up. I wish you knew how much I needed you. How we all did. I know you look over me I just need to do a better job catching it. At times I can probably be ignorant and you make sure to keep me protected. I love you pops and appreciate it all <3

I will never forget your smile and humor. Your family is my family and our hearts were torn when you left us. Although the years have passed, the weight is still heavy; but we are rested in the promise of you being safe in the Father´s hands. You are now our angel. We love and miss you dearly CJ, always.

CJ, all I ever think about is how dang funny you were and how we would laugh and crack jokes and talk about each other so much. Belly Busting laughing! One day after you left, I was driving to LaPlace and out of nowhere Pizzahut called my phone. I said, CJ stop it! And laughed and laughed. I miss you so much. I live you so much, (no typo) I see things from time to time that make me know you are watching out for me. I love that! You and Grandmother. She didn't want to be on earth without you. I could tell. You were special to her. But I'm sure you know that. I saw your boys, they are amazing, beautiful, intelligent and talented. Wow you make some awesome kids.
I thank God for the time he allowed me to have you in your life.
You are missed.
Your favorite Auntie in the world

Cj i miss you so much and im so sad that u left us. it doesn't feel real to me at all. sometimes i just feel like you're on vacation and your going to come home soon. i remember when i was thirteen and we used to wrestle with all of my toys and all the memories in between. including when i was eighteen and you sat me down to talk to me about boys you were so overprotective of me. i miss that so much even though you haven't been there my whole life it feels like you were and i miss every moment that we shared together. i love you so much big brother. i miss spending time with you. i can't even watch an episode of family guy without thinking about you. i love you CJ more than you will ever know

It has been exactly one month since you left us. I hope that you are finally at peace, happy and free of stress. There is not a day that goes by that you are not in my thoughts. I can still see you standing in my doorway the last time you came over. I can still hear your laugh and see your smiling face. I am so blessed to have ever known and loved you. You will always have a special place in my heart. I will never forget you. I just wish we could have had more time to spend together as a family. Family gatherings will never be the same without you. You brought so much joy and happiness in our home that will never be forgotten. Please rest in peace knowing that Stewart and I will make sure your fiance' and your babies are always well taken care of and safe. I love and miss you!

As the rain drops fall from the sky and the tear drops fall from my eyes
I will miss you more and more as time goes by.
To those you have left behind
comforting words are hard to find.
There is not a day that goes by without you in my thoughts.
You are always in my heart.
Thank you for your laughter and your smile.
If I woke up tomorrow and my eyes could not see, in the darkness there would be beauty of a love you have shown to me.
If tomorrow for some reason I could not hear, there would be music of your love that will always be near.
Rest in peace my son.
I will never forget you C.J.

I only met C.J. once, but I will always remember how he made us all laugh and smile. He was at the wedding of my daughter Jessica, and his cousin Aaron. I can just picture him out on the dance floor smiling and dancing! We all loved watching him dance, and his smile just lit up the room! I remember him telling us that he was getting married soon, and you could just tell how happy and proud he was to tell us all that news.
My condolences go out to all his family, especially to his Mother. I am a mother too, and I think losing a child, has to be one of the most difficult things a mother could ever experience. God Bless You All.

I haven't seen CJ in a while or been home in a while but my blessings and prayers go out to you all, Toni, Brandi, Jaris, Joanne'.
We all know that when we arrive and when we leave is not in our control. But CJ will live on through his family and especially his sons.
Mourning can go on for years and years.
It doesn't end after a year, that's a false fantasy.
It usually ends when people realize that they can live again,
that they can concentrate their energies on their lives as a whole,
and not on their hurt, and guilt and pain.

There are no words that will make the pain go away, I just hope that God takes all of you into his arms and carries you through this. I will keep Stephanie and her children along with his whole family in my prayers.

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

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.
