Dear Dad there are no words that can express the love that I have for you. I can sit back and still remember all the great times that we had when we would come and visit you on the weekends on Indiana Ave...lol the big circle chair we all used to fight about.... the morning breakfast that we would wake up to. I miss you dad and I know that you are so proud of me. I still sit at home on the weekends and wait for your call "hey tiff open the door I am outside." I still sit and think that you are going to call me and tell me how happy you are about finding Jameila and how glad you were that we are close. I love you dad with all my heart and I am soooo happy that you were in shaughn's life as much as you were. It was a second chance at life for you and you were taking full advantage of it. Thank you for teaching me about a good man...lol.. thank you for teaching me how to cook. I still remember. Thank you for always trying to do your best at being my dad.... most of all I want to thank you for always letting me be me. if I was upset you sat and let me yell.... if I was happy you were happy for me. those are things that no one could ever take away nor could they understand. I also want to thank you for leaving with uncle Mike my second dad i couldn't be more lucky to have him and family in my life.... I will always love you and want you to know that I will always make you proud.... Love always your girl Peanut Butter...lol

Your Wifey Gwen

Hi Satch, the closure of this book, will never put my memories or thoughts of you to rest. Though you are there, and I am here wherever I go or whatever I do, I see your face in my mind, and I miss you so. I miss telling you everything, I miss showing you things, I miss our eyes secretly giving each other confidence, knowing our love was so real. I miss your touch, I miss everything we shared, including the lil' spats that we had, that you missed so much while in Maine.(lol) I just miss you so much, but I live each day as it comes functioning in all my tasks, but inside I am so alone without you, but what makes this time bearable is all the wonderful years we had, which gives me so many thoughts and memories of you that will last me a lifetime. Just looking at all the photos of it all, brings so much back to life. I am attaching two pictures for you. Don't worry about me baby, I will be okay, the comfort and support of family and friends has been so strong, as you were loved by so many people. I will never understand the way you were taken away from me, but I know God has his plans for you, so for now I know I can't be with you, so I have to be content just dreaming about the day we will be together again. Loving you always, your partner in life, your best friend, your soulmate. I miss you baby, but thank you for sharing it all with me.

UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN

January 28, 2008

January 27, 2008

Well, this will be the last day to share my thoughts with you in this Book. It is wonderful to see how many people loved you...you touched everyone’s life you entered. Many of them knew how much you loved music, being some of their greatest memories of you. So, seeing how you loved music, played it all the time—Loud (smiles), I thought I would put in writing to you the words of one of your favorite songs, but you had too many favorites, so I changed my mind.

Weeks have gone by and I’m still waiting to hear your voice, but reality sets in and I know that’s not possible. So I will take with me all the memories I now have and wait for the day until our next reunion...rest in peace and know that we all love and miss you, especially me!

Gwen Carpenter

January 27, 2008

To my Baby, the thoughts of being without you in this life is so hard to deal with. What we had was so unique and special over the last 20 years, and just these past few years we grew even closer and closer and no matter what stories filled our days and nights, we had each other to hold on tight, which is what we did. We lived, we loved, and we laughed, so many memories I have to cherish of you, because you were truly my man and no ..... could ever come between us. I miss you baby, but I know you are safe and at peace. Loving you always, your Lady, Gwen

Brother in law, it is still so hard to believe that you are gone, thoughts of you are always with us. We went to B'more last week and the memories we all had of the last time we all traveled there for the party, we reminised about how much fun we had partying until 6am outdoors, and when we all finally went to sleep, you stayed up all night, as we awoke early that morning and found you cleaning up the party mess in the yard. That's the kind of person you were, always so thoughtful and loving to my sister. We postponed the trip we all was suppose to take to NY, as it is so hard to understand why you had to leave so soon. The trips and the partying will not be the same without you, but best believe the memories of it all, keep us smiling and laughing, because we always had such a good time. Gwen just misses you so much, but we know you are at peace.

Satch, just want you to know that your presence is felt daily, and each time I am at the house with Gwen, there are just constant reminders of the good times we all shared. Even Lil' Mil-Mil speaks for you often as she comforts Gwen during this most difficult time. It was also very comforting to hear your voice as I listened to your last message shortly before you were called home,it was very sweet to hear you express your love to Gwen, and how happy you were to be with her all these years, while looking forward to coming home to spend so many more. Those loving words, and your memories will forever stay with her, until you meet again. You are certainly missed, but your memories are so alive within our hearts.

To Satch, My Best Friend

From Your Best Friend….me

"Missing you daily"…Just wanted to thank you for letting me know how truly happy you were...knowing that at the end of your time with us here you were experiencing new adventures and enjoying your life—that gives me great comfort in my lost of our relationship.

The most hurting part, of course, is the missing of you, your voice and your crazy self. I know you did not suffer in your last hour, you were happy and now you are safe...watching over all that you loved...what else can any of us ask for, except of course, other than wanting you to still be here, hanging out and spending much more time with us.

Jr., unfortunately, your mission in this lifetime was fulfilled and it’s time for you to rest in peace…I know you will always be with me making sure I become happy and accomplish the rest of the goals in my life. Thank you for the time we spend…I know we’ll see each other again…I’m getting through each day a little better because as we believed, “Everything happens for a reason!”

I will always remember all the wonderful times we shared…and will always Wuv U!!!

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.

DIANE FREDREK-ELLIS

December 20, 2007

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
