Spencer I never got the pleasure of meeting you,but I've known your Mom and Dad since they were young. But I so enjoyed seeing the wonderful pictures of your vibrant smile, and seeing you laugh always with your brothers. Having a son your age, I cannot even begin to imagine the loss your family continues to feel to this very day. I pray they find comfort in the fact that every moment you are looking down smiling on them. Continue shredding the skate parks in heaven,and knowing the many lives you continue to touch here on earth.

I went to school with Spencer, and the other day my brother broke a necklace that I have that I wear almost everyday that says RIP Spencer, and ever since I couldn't get him out of my mind. It's so weird that in two days it'll be a year. It feels more like a million. I loved how he was so care free and lived life to his fullest. I wish he was still here, and we could go to high school together, but all I have is the memories with him to go through with me.

Dear John Paul, Wendy, Hunter, and Chandler,
Today is August 22nd - a date that will always be Spencer's Special Day. Over the years it was a day to celebrate his birth, now it's a special day to remember Spencer and the 13 wonderful years of his life.
I hope all of you are doing ok today, and are able to get through this special day by honoring Spencer's memory with fun, laughter, and activities that will bring a smile to him as he looks down on those that love him so much.
I am at Aaron's this weekend and we are all wearing the pink Spencer soccer memorial pins. We are making this Spencer's Day here by remembering him and sharing fond moments of our times with him.
We're thinking of you guys and hoping you are all doing ok and sending you all big virtual hugs from afar.
Lots of Love,
Patsy, Aaron & family.....

I keep looking back on this guest book weekly, because i still dont believe what happend that day. Spencer Graham was the sweeetest person i HAVE ever met. I can remember the fourth grade with him,zach,rachell,kelly,velincia we all were sittting in a circle laughing and making jokes when i had my tape recorder. and Wed pass it around to each person and say a choke into the tape recorder. And EVERY time it got to spencer he'd always say that same yo mamma joek,which to this day i cant remember. Something with cherios(: You can't image how much i think of him, even in class all of a sudden something reminds me of him and my eyes water. I'm honestly still awiting for him to wake up. I know he is alive still, even though he is not able to be seen, hes alive in my mind, in my eyes, and in my heart. I love you spencer, and you all are still in my prayers.
Hah, i can picture Spencer skateboarding with the person who made up skateboarding, or singing with bob marley. :) haha, i love you.

My Sweetest Spencer,
It was exactly four years apart from the first time I met you and the last time I saw and hugged you. It was Halloween night 2004. Hunter walked circles around the house playing his CD player as load as his ear drums would allow, Chandler would walk up to me with his shoulders pulled into his chest and up to his chin wanting to be tickled as he leaned against my leg. Then,... there was you. Curious Spencer. You waited till everyone left the room but me and scared me half to death as you popped your head over the sofa very cartoon like with that big old grin of yours. You tilted your head to the side and proceeded to ask multiple questions quicker than I could answer. "Who are you? Why are you in my house? Why are you on my sofa? Whats your name? Do I know You? Do I know our mom? Does my mom know you." and so on. I was very taken by it and couldn't help but laugh. You were as sweet as you were adorable, and who could forget the ringlets. It amazed me to watch you grow over the next four years. You bloomed in to a wonderful soccer player, and were so good to your brothers. Most children your age pushed younger children away, but you embraced them and loved them with all of your heart. I still see so much of you in your brothers. Hunter as he picks up his drum sticks and Chandler in his soccer uniform. You are so loved here and always will be. I will always love you and miss you. I will always miss those big brown eyes and pulling at your curls. I know your parents miss you every second of the day and your brothers miss not having their big brother by their side. I know that you are protecting them with every step the take. We miss you so much and will never forget you.

When Wendy found out she was pregnant with Spencer, we were so excited. To be pregnant together, and have our sons be able to grow up together, being so close in age. I'll never forget holding him for the first time at the hospital. He was a beautiful baby. So cute and cuddly. I feel so blessed to have had Spencer in our life. He was such a sweetheart, a really good guy, and wonderful cousin to Crispin. They had such a good time together, they were two peas in a pod, not just cousins, but the best of buddies too. Memories were made that will last forever. Spencer, sweet angel, you touched our lives in such a profound way. We miss you dearly and love you so much.

To Spencer,
I miss you. I love you. I will never forget the times me and you played soccer together. I won't be able to forget you because you are in my heart and how much fun we had together. I didn't like the day you died because I was not ready and I didn't want you to die anyway. But the good thing is me, Hunter, Mom and Dad will never ever forget you and your name. I wish no one can ever die. Hunter and you are the best brother's I will ever have.
Love, Chandler your brother

Happy Birthday Spencer!
~My Heavenly Brother~
Spencer I miss you so much,
But you gone and I'm crushed.
Spencer I wish you were here,
do you have anything except fear?
Now your in Heaven, in the sky,
can you come home, can you try?
Everyone cries in the night,
Everyones scarred with a fright.
Mama still cries, Dad still cries,
Can you come alive in the night?
~No you can't because your gone,
because your dead,
do you remember Zach's old shed?
That's what we played Pokemon in,
I hope you remember your
My Heavenly brother~
You make me sad, you make me mad too.
You make me cry after you die.
~But you dead, but your gone,
do you want to see the old dawn?
Do you want to talk to me?
Because I want to talk to
My Heavenly Brother~
You can hate me, you can love me, you can punch me,
you can hug me, you can want me, you don't have too,
just always remember, never forget that your
My Heavenly Brother
~Because your gone,
Because your dead.~
I know you love me, I know you know Kim,
that's where we took a picture of me on your back.
Mom took the picture, do you miss her?
Your everyones
Heavenly Brother
Written with Love, Hunter your brother

Spencer was a great person. He was the first person I met in Slidell. He was one of a kind with his hair. He is someone no one will forget. I miss drinking kid margaritas with him. When people laughed, they laughed with him. He was always the funny kid. It was funny to see him dance to Hannah Montana. I will never forget Hunter's face that horrible day. It makes me really happy when I see you, Mrs. Wendy, at birthday parties and other neighborhood events with your ribbon on. Mr. J.P., Mrs. Wendy, Hunter, Chandler, Savannah :), and other members of the Graham family, I can't imagine how hard it must be and I hope you have peace until you all meet again with Spencer. I am constantly thinking of you all.

Today, May 16, 2009, is 6 months after that nightmarish day that I received the call that we had lost our beautiful, wonderful and so special Spencer. It is still so hard to accept that I will never get to see his precious face, hear his so infectious laugh or hold him in my arms – give and receive that big hug filled with love and warmth.
I must admit that although I thought it would never be possible, the pain has eased some and I no longer shed tears on a daily basis. I can now think about Spencer and remember him without tears, but there are very few hours in a day when Spencer is not on my mind. There are still many times when I can’t control the tears and emotions, but I have learned that those times are ok, it’s alright to cry and mourn my beloved grandson.
I am often haunted by the realization that there are so many things I wanted to experience with Spencer that will never happen. I regret there will not be that trip to Hawaii, spending time with Spencer and observing the wonder, amazement and joy in his expression as he experiences the many wonders the Islands have to offer. I regret not making that trip to Orlando and Disneyworld to spend several days experiencing all we could while we were there. I am sorry I won’t experience his excitement in getting his driver’s license, graduating from high school and college, getting married and having his own children. I do look forward, though, with experiencing these times with Hunter, Chandler and Taylor and will do what I can to make sure they happen.
I missed Spencer when I was in Slidell for visits and when we had our family vacation in New Orleans. Although I do love the times I have with my family, I can’t stop wondering what it would be like if Spencer was still with us.
I miss seeing his interaction with his parents, Hunter and Chandler. I often think about how impressed I was with the way he was always able and willing to talk to Chandler when he was so upset and impossible to deal with. His patience and love for his brother was so obvious and his ability to calm and soothe Chandler was remarkable and memorable.
I also miss seeing his interaction with his auntie Melisa and Uncle Tony and observing the special love and bond they shared. I reminisce about the times he spent with Taylor and how he helped her through her role as flower girl in Cabo. These are all fond memories that will be with me forever.
Aunt Patsy was like having another grandma and I always felt so lucky that he got to spend time with her and his many other cousins – his extended loving family. There were so many special moments with all of them for me to remember.
Although I am often sad and wonder how things would be if I still had Spencer in my life, I comfort myself by remembering all the good times we have spent together. The days, nights, weekends and summer vacations we shared. I cherish our family vacations and the many firsts I experienced with Spencer. Those memories are so precious and will be with me for as long as I live. I am so grateful to have so many memorable moments to remember.
I am very proud on how our family is trying so hard to move forward and continue on with our lives. The support that everyone gives each other provides the strength to help us all through this terrible time in our lives.
I love my children and my precious grandchildren and everyday realize how lucky I am to have them all in my life and even though Spencer has been gone for 6 months now, he too is still so much a part of my life.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Your huge smile and happy ways is what made you so special. I have so many great memeories that I will cherish. I'm greatful that we were able to spend the time together to make those memories. I love the fact that you and Jelani always clicked and had lots of fun together no matter how many weeks, months or years were in between visits.
I will forever miss your smile ~

I'll always remember Spencer for all his firsts. First Grandson, first to talk and walk, first to go to school, first to play soccer, first to flirt with the girls, first to get in trouble (only a little), first in so many other ways. Often times he was introspective and quiet, like he was thinking about so many things. He was always thoughtful and considerate. He had a great sense of humor. He liked to take risk, but always with a sense of caution, never out of control. And I’m sure every girl he met would tell you how good looking he was. He was super with his brothers as I know they respected him and certainly listened to him when it really mattered. It’s so hard to believe he’s gone, but we all know he will never be forgotten. He will always live on in our hearts and souls.

I wish I would have
- hugged your more
- kissed you more
- spent more time with you
- talked to you more
- listened to you more
- just watched you live your life.
I remember when I would hug you, it was a joke between us that I wouldn’t let go - and you would eventually say “Uh, Grandma, let go.” I wish I had one more hug - and no, I wouldn’t let go.
You will be in my heart until we meet again.
XXXXXOOOOO

Daulton and I will always always remember Spencer at the soccer fields. I remember the first time I saw Spencer I asked Daulton "who's the kid with all the hair" !! :) Daulton always said how much Spencer loved the game and always spoke about how good he was at it. I will never drive by a soccer field and not think about him. Darren & Daulton LaGrave

Spencer, You will forever live in my heart, mind and soul. You still give me the strength to be the mother I am. You taught me to beleive in myself and in others. Not to judge but to LOVE. There is not a moment that goes by that you are not missed! Your spirit shines in your brothers. They are full of so much love, which is all thanks to the love you gave.
I live for the day I can put my arms around you once again.
Love, Mom

Your laughter is in every breeze that blows,

Spencer made me an Auntie for the very first time. A boy did he make me proud! It was so neat to have a little one around. He was such a happy baby. He always has a BIG smile on his face and was always laughing. I can remember the day he was brought into this world like it was yesterday. I miss him so much!!! My most favorite memory of Spencer is when is was maybe 3 years old and me and one of my girl friends were hanging out in my room and Spenc came in and Brass Monkey had just come on the radio. Instantly Spencer started smiling and he got all excited and he hopped up on my bed and started singing all the words to the song and jumping around all over the bed. All of us started cracking up, even him! Man, did I love showing off that kid. He was such a NEAT kid. That boy loved his music and it started at a very early age.
It was so nice living by JP,Wendy and the boys when they moved to Pleasanton. They loved coming over to Grandma's. We always spoiled them and loved having them over as much as possible. I got to see Spencer grow up into a loving and caring little man. He had such a big heart and just by looking at him you could see all the love he had for you and others. He was the BEST older brother Hunter or Chandler could have ever wished for. He was the BEST first born Wendy and John Paul could have ever dreamed of. He was the BEST first grandson my mom could have ever wished for! Spencer was the BEST first born nephew that I ever hoped for.
I still can't believe he is gone. My heart aches every single day and it will until we met again. It was so hard to say goodbye and I wished I could have found the streghth to speak at his memorial service, but the pain was too deep. But even today on Easter, this is the hardest thing I have ever had to do... to admit that he is gone. He will be missed more than words can express. He made so many people so happy so proud! I will always cherish all the good times we had since that's all there is when it comes to Spenc. The Graham family as been hit hard from his loss, but nobody can take away the memories we have of him nor the way he made our hearts feel when he was near! I want to say thank you to John Paul and Wendy for bringing such a wonderful person into our lives and w/o you guys we wouldn’t have ever had the chance to meet Spencer. Even though he was here for such a short period of time, his spirit will be with all of us forever. I would also like to thank my Mom for being such a wonderful Grandmother who always thought of family first. Any chance she got she would find a way for the family to be together. Whether it be spending time visiting them in Louisiana, family vacations, or just spending holidays together, she always made it her mission to get us all together. MOST importantly I want to thank her for the SUMMERS… when the boys would fly by themselves to stay with us for weeks at a time. It is this time, when I go to spend the most time with Spencer and I am truly grateful for these memories and I will hold them close to my heart forever. For this I am thankful because without my mom I would not have any of these wonderful memories… the ones that are most recent are thanks to her.
Last of all, I would like to thank Spencer for making me the proudest Auntie in the whole wide world. Without him I wouldn’t have learned what’s truly important in life… Our family! Our family will never be the same without you Spencer!!!
I LOVE YOU SPENCER AND YOU WILL BE WITH ME ALWAYS!!!
~Love, Auntie Melisa~

Dear Wendy,
We are still mourning Spencer, and Nicholas and I pray for him and your family each week in church. Remember the beautiful day we had at Heritage Park for the soccer party? The boys were showing off how far they could kick the ball, running around playing games, and just enjoying each other's company. We had a great team that year, and you and Spencer were the foundation.

spencer played a big part in my life. He taught me many things. The things I am most thankful from learning from spencer is to always be myself and not to let other people get to me. I recall one time on my neighborhood schoolbus I had got in an
arguement with one girl and she turned all of
my friends against me, I was very upset. After I got off the bus with spencer I began to cry and he mademe laugh. When I finally felt better he told me that I shouldn't worry and that if those people who turned on me were true friends that wouldntve happened. And not to listen to what other people say because it only matters what I think. Growing up and developing into a young teen Spencer really helped me stay grounded in what was right and wrong. He talked me out of some pretty dumb things. No matter what obstacles life put in my way I always had spencer to get threw them with me. Spenc, I remember our first day at little oak together, when I cried at lunch, and you looked at me and said heyyy look on the bright side, the food isn't that lumpyyy! LOL. Well I love you so much Spencer, I will NEVER forget you! And to mrs.wendy I love you and I can only imagine what you are going through. But god will help you. Same for you mr up
Hunter and Chan-man, this is JaMeSa, I used to live down the street from you guys... But just remember you can talk to me if needed. And no matter what spencer does love you, and he doesn't want you to be sad. You will be okay. And remember when things seem as bad as they can be, you will be sure to have a brighter tommorrow. And when you feel like you can't go on, pray, I promise it will work out. Well I love you guys as if you were my own brothers...

Wendy, I feel like I have been blessed to have been a
small part in Spencer's life. I will forever remember the evening pracitices of heat, cold, rain, and mosquitos and Saturday games spent on the soccer fields.I will never forget the small kid with big hair and contagious smile making an
incredible shot on goal.Thanks for memories Spencer.

JP, Wendy, Hunter, and Chandler,
I remember working in the 411 office with JP. It took some time to figure out that Nancy was John Paul's mom. I saw a picture of JP on her desk. In the 411 office, we referred to John Paul as JP. I had no idea they were one in the same. There used to be several pictures on Nancy's desk of John Paul, Tony and Melissa and I have to say, currently there are more pictures of the grandkids.
I think the pictures are so special because although we do not have the opportunity to see the grandkids all that often, the pictures keep us up to date on their events. The one comment that Nancy always uses when referring to Spencer is that he is a great kid. Nancy always has such positive things to say about Spencer.
My thoughts are with you and I will always remember Spencer – he was always so polite. Thank you for sharing your family and the wonderful memories.

Dear Graham Family -
Spencer touched so many lives during his short time here. Know
that you all have been in my thoughts and prayers. Long ago, I stopped asking "why" these types of thing happen - as no response or reason ever seemed to remove or justify the pain and feelings of loss. I do believe that God has a master plan he is constantly unveiling - and he has provided us no guarantees that we will "like" what he reveals or puts us through. But, nonetheless, we put our faith and trust in Him.
I only knew Spencer from those few days I was there in New Orleans several years ago. But I'll always remember his smile and the great life force he exuded. Try to dwell on the great memories you have of Spencer - as those are the true treasures we get out of living our lives.
Tony Graham

Spencer was my brothers first of three sons, and was given the gift of being humble, a great sense of humor, and a huge heart for everyone around him. He always brought a smile to my face when we got to hangout, he was such a great kid and I can't believe he's gone.
Spencer's light shines in my heart brighter than ever, and he's shown me what is trully important in life...my family. I love you all and miss you everyday we're apart. Spenser, I love and will miss you always little man. Love, your Uncle Tony.

Words can not express the pain that I feel for you and the boys. I think of Spence every day and will cherrish every memory that I have of him. His laughter, his smile, his unconditional love for you and his brothers. You are the best parents a child could ever hope for. We will have to live with this pain for the rest of our lives but our memories will keep us strong. When I look into the sky at night, I know that one of those bright stars are Spencer looking down upon us. We need to be strong for Hunter and Chandler and know that God has a new little Angel that is in Heaven lighting up the sky and bringing joy to those that are with Him.
I love all of you and will be there for you anytime you need me. I am just a phone call away.

Dear Graham Family- I am deepley saddened to learn of Spencer's passing. He was an adorable child and my grandaughter Mikayla's first crush - she called him Spenster. I pray that God will carry you through your unimaginable grief. Take comfort in God's promise that he is in Paradise beyond our comprehension. With love and my most sincere condolences, Jill Miller

Dear John Paul, Wendy, Chandler and Hunter, and Nancy and Family,
All of you have been in our thoughts and prayers. We share your grief and we will always miss Spencer.
Spencer was a character. The last time we saw him, he reminded me of a young Tarzan with his long, curly blond locks of hair. It was a joy to see a young person with so much character and life in him. He was such a good role model and leader for his younger brothers.
I do not think words can really provide much comfort at this time. This is the kind of loss and pain that only time can heal. Please let us know if there is anything Alison and I can do to help you through this.
Our Love and Prayers,
Sue Lester

My thoughts and prayers are with each and every one of you. I saw Spencer each school day this year as I dropped my son Braeden at the bus stop - he and Spencer rode the same bus and we were neighbors for several years. Spencer's ever present smile will be missed by all who knew him.
