Tammy,
My dear sister - today is Memorial Day 2013 and I woke up thinking of you wishing I could be with you. Why did God take you? I miss talking to you when times are hard and the good times we had together. Words can never describe how I so wish you were here or I was with you. Love you Sis. Chris

I miss you so much mom and i think about you daily. I really wish you could be here. I Wish i could talk to you and ask your advice on parenting. Things are hard and you were such a wise and resourceful mother. THese times during the holidays i especially miss helping you with thanksgiving dinner and putting up the Christmas tree. I love you with all my heart mom, and i just wish you were still here. I wish i could hug you and talk with you. I especially wish my daughters could know their grandmother.
I love you sooooo much mom, i cant say it enough. I apologize for not saying it enough when you were still here.

Tammy I just spoke to Sara and she is having your second grandchild as I type this note! Please watch over her, I know you are but wish I could be there in your place. By the way, your first granddaughter is absolutely gorgeous, I wish you could have been around to touch and kiss her. Cloe Hayle will be here very soon! Love you always!

Tammy - I miss you so much. I guess the both of us knew what it felt like to be without family - I miss talking to you when no one else was there. Sometimes I wish it were different - but in never will be. I miss having you - even though we were always miles from each other - I felt so close to you. You were always so strong and independant - I love and miss you - Your Sister - Chris

It has been one year since Tammy went home and I still miss her the same. A year of my life without her has been equal to about 10 years it seems and not one day has passed without thinking of her. I still cannot believe she is gone. Memories of her will forever stay strong in my heart and soul. I miss you so much Tammy and Love you as much today as always. Love Always,

Happy Easter Tammy!
Thinking of you.
O God, who made this most holy night to shine
with the glory of the Lord’s resurrection:
Stir up in your Church that Spirit of adoption
which is given to us in Baptism,
that we, being renewed both in body and mind,
may worship your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ
who overcame death
and opened to us the gate of everlasting life:
Grant that we,
who celebrate with joy the day of the Lord’s resurrection,
may be raised from the death of sin
by your life-giving Spirit;
through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
God our Father,
by raising Christ your Son
you conquered the power of death
and opened for us the way to eternal life.
Let our celebration today raise us up
and renew our lives by the Spirit that is within us.
Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Love Forever,

For the family of Tammy!
Don’t think of her as gone away
Her journey’s just begun
Life holds so many facets
This earth is only one.
Just think of her as resting
From the sorrow 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.

Merry Christmas Tammy!!
I am not sure how to carry on without you, just trying to make the best of the holiday. It is not easy and we all miss you so very much. It is not the same without your love and what you do for all of us. Your love cannot be replaced, but you are still with us thru it all. Cannot seem to shake the depression during the holidays without you here. I know that you are in a better place and I want to send you all my love. I miss you so much. Having our family together for the holidays was the best part of my life and it leaves a very empty feeling without you here. Your suffering has ended and that is something that gives me some comfort, but it will NEVER be the same without you Tammy! Love Forever!!
Walk With Me
If you have learned to walk
A little more sure-footedly than I,
Be patient with my stumbling then
And know that only as I do my best and try
May I attain the goal
For which we both are striving.
If through experience, your soul
Has gained heights which I
As yet in dim-lit vision see,
Hold out your hand and point the way,
Lest from its straightness I should stray,
And walk a mile with me.

If I Could...
If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
And share with you its beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea
But all these things I'm finding
Are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be what I know best:
A friend that's always there.

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond’s glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken
in the morning’s hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.

CHRISTMAS PRAYER
by Robert Louis Stevenson
Loving Father, help us remember the birth of Jesus,
that we may share in the song of the angels, the gladness
of the shepherds, and worship of the wise men.
Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world.
Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting.
Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings,
and teach us to be merry with clear hearts.
May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children,
and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful
thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus' sake. Amen.
Rest In Peace

Dear Tammy,
The first time I met U...
U and Doug kindly offered David KokoBeane and I
Shelter from The Storm.
{1 of 4!- The 2004 Hurricanes}
David and I were trying to flee Florida, while en route, the state shut down 95 Northbound-We felt lost...Until We arrived at Your home...U welcomed Us in, and U and I connected immediately. We talked for hours into the early morning dawn...I felt 'safe' there w/U Doug and Your great Family. Tammy, I will always reflect back w/warm and grateful memories, of that nite U welcomed Us into Your home...gave Us Shelter.......and now U Tammy... have Shelter from The Storm........
W/The Grace of Our Lord* may All who Love and miss U dearly have Peace* in this.
W/Love* & Peace*~

My Dearest Tammy,
I am thinking of you on this Mothers Day, I miss you so very much and wish you were here. You came into my life and became a wonderful mother to my son and that did not affect what a good mother you already were for your three kids. I wanted to thank you for everything you have done for my son and me. I will never forget you Tammy! The love you have for your children lives on forever in myself and them!
Happy Mothers Day!
I LOVE YOU SWEETIE!

When I'm Called Home
When I breathe my last upon this earth,
Don't be sad and filled with pain.
My purpose will be completed.
What I've longed for, I've attained.
Don't shed a tear, but smile instead.
My death is not the end.
I'm still living - just on a higher plane,
With Jesus - my dearest friend.
When my earthly body is lowered,
Into the cold, dark, dreary ground.
It won't lie there forever,
Only 'til the trumpet's sound.
Please etch upon my headstone,
The date God gave me birth.
But enter not the month and year,
He took me from this earth.
My spirit will still be living,
For I was saved by grace.
I'll be dwelling with my Savior.
In that glorious, heavenly place.
And when the final trumpet sounds,
First the dead in Christ shall rise.
Then my body that was buried,
Will be caught up in the skies.
It will meet there with my spirit.
And the two shall be entwined.
To form the perfect body,
That my precious Lord designed.
If God has not yet called you,
Before that final trumpet sounds,
You'll be changed and rise to meet him.
For you, too, are Heaven bound.

May You Find Serenity
May you find serenity and tranquility in a world you may not always understand. May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism. Always know that there are those whose love and understanding will always be there, even when you feel most alone. May you discover enough goodness in others to believe in a world of peace. May a kind word, a reassuring touch, and a warm smile be yours every day of your life, and may you give these gifts as well as receive them. Remember the sunshine when the storm seems unending.
Teach love to those who hate, and let that love embrace you as you go out into the world. May the teachings of those you admire become part of you, so that you may call upon them. Remember, those whose lives you have touched and whose have touched yours are always a part of you, even if the encounters were less than you would have wished. It is the content of the encounter that is more important than the form.
May you not become too concerned with material matters, but instead place immeasurable value on the goodness in your heart. Find time each day to see beauty and love in the world around you. Realize that, each person has limitless abilities, but each of us is different in our own way. What you feel you lack in the present may become one of your strengths in the future. May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility. Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience. May you find enough inner strength to determine your own worth by yourself, and not be dependent on another's judgement of your accomplishments. May you always feel loved.
Love,
Doug

Come With Me
The Lord saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So He put his arms around you
and whispered, "Come with me"
With tearful eyes, we watched you suffer
And saw you fade away,
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
A beautiful smile at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.
It's lonesome here without you
We miss you so each day,
Our lives aren't the same
Since you went away.
When days are sad and lonely,
And everything goes wrong,
We seem to hear you whisper,
"Cheer up and carry on."
Each time we see your picture,
You seem to smile and say,
"Don't cry, I'm in God's keeping,
We'll meet again someday."

Theres so much i want to say but cant put into words. I know me and my mother never saw eye to eye, but i still loved her and i miss her terribly. Its hard for me to believe she is gone. When i need someone to talk to i find myself thinking "i should call my mom" and then painfully i remember i can no longer do that. Theres so much i wish i would have told her before her passing. One of which is that im pregnent and she is going to be a grandma. I miss you so much mom and i wish you could be here to help me through this time and i wish i would have been there for you more. But most of all i wish you would be able to see your grandchild. I love you with all my heart. and always will.

Tammy, A true friend, first one to offer help or a caring word of hope. You forever touched my life. I would have loved to do that Chili's trip that we never got cause of work! But I loved your shells! Gonna miss that very much! Your passion for your family and how you always fought to keep it together was so touching to my soul. I admired you for that, made want to be a better Mom. I am happy you are no longer suffering here but dancing amongst the angels now! I was happy to talk to you earlier this year you sounded great! May your caring spirit continue to bless us here still walking on this Earth. I love you my friend! See ya labia! (inside joke)
Doug, You were her number 1. She always talked about you, would have loved to do a bbq together. Keep your head up! Fight for what is right and when you feel like the weight is too heavy...seek HIS face, He will carry you through this storm, that I can promise you! Keep in touch! Love, Dawn

A Little Step Away.To close the eye. to fall asleep To draw a labored breath To find release from daily cares I what we know as death. Is this the crowning of a life,The aim or end thereof? The totaled sum of consciousness,The ripened fruit of love?Th cannot be,for works of GOD Are wroght for hobler ends,And away continue on In the hearts of kin and friends.IT cannot be, FOR they live on A little step away The soul,the everlasting life,Has found a better day...

In Loving Memory of Tammy
January 23, 1969 - April 16, 2007
When I left this world without you I know it made you blue.
Your tears fell so freely, I watched; I know this is true.
While you were weeping
Days after I passed away While all was silent within me,
I saw you kneel to pray.
From this wonderful place called heaven Where all my pain is gone,
I send a gentle breeze to whisper,
"My loved ones, please go on "The peace that I have found here Goes far beyond compare No rain, no clouds, no suffering Just LOVE from everywhere.
You need not be troubled
Just stay close to GOD in prayer
Someday we'll be reunited
My Love, HIS love surrounds you always,EVERYWHERE!
I love you Tammy!

We are here together to Honor and celebrate the life of someone so precious and special… Our Beloved Tammy
What are the words to describe how she has changed my life in such a short time?
She was Beauty & Joy & Love & Talent & Youth. Tammy was my Lighthouse in the storm. She was my Bridge when the path seemed to come to an end.
She had so much to give and was taken from us way too soon. She always put her loved ones before herself, even in her final days.
But… She will never leave us. She will always be a part of us. Her unending love for her children lives on in Josh, Sara, Kyle and Chris.
In the blink of an eye, the whole world stops. How do you go on?
One step at a time, One day at a time
Never forgetting, always remembering
The wonderful precious moments,
Beautiful Pictures
Sharing the stories
Treasuring the Time Together
And holding on to those loved ones around us
Trying to see the good in each other.
God has taken Tammy home
But her spirit can never leave
She has permanently become a part of us
She is all around us Forever
She may be gone, but she lives forever in my heart and I will never forget
My Love, My Life, My Rock, My Tammy.

Aunt Tammy- I never actually knew you but I heard all the great stories about you. I have seen all of the pictures. I just wanted you to know that I indeed still care so much about you even though I didn't know you personally. I am sure you were a great person and it's unfortunate that you had to pass at such a young age. Rest in peace.

You were my rock. The only mother figure I have ever known. You will always be in my heart and someday soon we will play in the sand together again. I promise to be there for Josh, Sara and Kyle whenever they need me, even if its a listening ear like you always did for me. Wait for me, I will be there soon. Miss you horribly already and will for the rest of my life. Your baby sister.
