Dear Mom,
I dont exactly know how to say this but Happy Birthday. I miss you everyday and I am trying so hard to be strong for Jacob, Brian, Christopher, and Gabe. We love you with everything we have and I miss you today most of all because this is the one day out of every year that we shared together. I turned 16 today but you knew that, I wish you could be here to see me grow up but you are in a better place now and thats all I can hope for. I'll be waiting for the day when i get to see you again. but i will not rush to it because I know that is not what you would want me to do. I do not know what else to say so i will say I love you and miss you SO MUCH.
Love forever and always,
your little girl Brittany

Crystal, Steve, duke and I camping!

I am sending my wish that you be comforted in your loss. I also suffered loss within two years, my husband, my sister and brother. We have not met but I share a common maiden name with Linda. The pain is something you must learn to live with but somehow it keeps your loved one close to your heart. I am praying for comfort for Crystal's entire family.

You were definately one of a kind Crystal -which makes this so hard to comprehend -but easy to keep you forever in my heart. You were our family and will be greatly missed. May God watch over Steve & the kids and somehow give them strength to get through this. I know you'll always be with the kids -let them know you are there. My heart just can't believe this to be true. I love you my dear daughter through friendship & you will NEVER be forgotten. Thank you for being part of my life

I have written this a couple hundred times and could not send it, I felt if I sent it then it was true. I dont want to believe it!! I know I do not have the words except you will be missed! There are a thousand memories I could list but the one that will be in my head forever is your smile. I am so sorry and my deepest condolences to your husband and children and your entire family. You will be missed girl!

<3 The sun is shining a little brighter today because God brought home another one of his angels... Sometimes it can be painful when God comes in and rearranges our lives but you were always smiling and I know you'd want me to smile too. so I smiled for you today.. Until we meet again, love always your cousin... <3
