Allie,
We put up the Halloween decorations in the yard...I laugh thinking about carving the pumpkins and the longer they stayed out in the weather the more they started sinking in...their mouths became so distorted that you laughed and laughed...you always wanted to light the candles inside every night just before dark...you enjoyed life so much!! I crossed the road to look back at our pumpkin arrangement and the breath just left my body...I am so sorry Alex....why you...Stephanie has been home on Fall Break this weekend and it has been nice having her home. She loves college and is doing great!! Keith is challenging lifes temptations, but he is a good boy...Mack is doing wonderful on the Y Swim Team...she is also playing soccer and that precious little smile never leaves her face. Chloe is growing up so tall...such a brillant child...can't believe she will start school next year. Your cabbage plant is 20 months old now...can you believe it...this has to be a record...I need to have Ms. Cobb come and see it...she is such a wonderful person...I am so greatful to her for taking such good care of you in 3rd grade. As always...I miss you the world...love you bunches and bunches...more than all the stars...a hundred...million...zillion...I loved you first and I loved you more...forever and ever....Mom
If wishes only did come true....

Alex,
Your birthday was August 5th and you would have been ten!! WoW..double digits. I am amazed at how quickly time passes...but my love for you never fades and the hurt never gets better. Oh God Alex...what happened to you was so unfair...I pray every day for God to make me accepting and forgiving...maybe one day. I rely on my faith to get through each day and because I know you are the sweetest little angel in heaven I can smile...but then reality sets in and I shudder thinking about the accident. My heart remains broken!! The children started school...Steph is at college...and you would have been in the fifth grade...As the years go by, I hope you are not forgotten...you were too good to be forgotten...too precious...to brillant...too witty!! I guess this isn't going to be such a good day for me...I feel so overwhelmed with hurt....I love you so very much...forever and ever...I just Wish I could have you back!!

Allie,
The girls and I went to see Patrick and Alan in their Play Shop production...it was wonderful and both boys did a great job!! This was the first time I had been to the Art Center since I went with you. I had to be strong walking through those doors and looking at the tables where we ate our lunch...I took a quick glance in the gift shop...so so hard!! I had fun with you that day!! Chloe has started wearing one of your tee shirts to bed at night...way too big, but cute. You know Alex...the fondest memory I have of you is all of you..every minute of every day!! Today I felt like I could bust...as the tears fell I just wanted to run somewhere and find you, but I know I can't....how can you explain this to anyone...
I saw Ethan and his mom tonight...he went to play school with you at the Methodist Church in Nashville when you were three and four years old...he is ten now...just like you will be really soon. Ten Years old...August 5th. I still have the balloons and the clown cup cake Ms. Diane brought for your last birthday...really...I kept the cupcake and it still looks okay...no mold haha. Mommy's little chicken frog doodle bug...daddies little man...Mackenzie's mini me...Stephanie and Keith's little brother and Chloe's little Allie....love you the world...more than the stars...with my whole heart...forever and ever...and Alex...I loved you first...Miss you so so so so so Much...
Hugs and Kisses...Mommy

Allie,
I had this overwhelming feeling today...I guess that nervous urge to see you...that never ending want for something you know you can't have. It's just so painful...I keep putting photos of you everywhere around me just to feel close to you...it is still not like being able to reach out and touch you. You are constantly in my thoughts and always in my heart forever...
I love you always...more than the whole world...forever and ever...with my whole heart...more than the world and stars...and I loved you first.....

Alex,
As I sit and watch the kids swim I only can imagine you swimming too!! You boys would line up and do different tricks (smallest splash...biggest splash...best dive...craziest jump)...and I would have to be the judge...you would win most of the time, but I had to be fair to everybody else..haha You loved to swim...the last thing you told Tyler was you couldn't wait to get in the pool and go swimming...it was a sunny day in March...a little warm, but the water was freezing so I told you both to wait until it was warmer...I wish I had let you do it anyway. I have so many if only's...or so many I should have done's....Why do people say it gets better in time? It doesn't and I know in my heart it never will. Chloe found your little book...I See The Moon...you used to love saying this with me when you were little. We had butterbeans tonight...remember the vinegar. I guess that was a random thought..haha Lifes twists and turns...road bumps and dead ends don't mean anything...not after loosing you...nothing could compare. Really not a good day so mommy wishes you a good night...sweet dreams and don't let the bed bugs bite...love you forever and ever...bunches and bunches...more than the stars...with my whole heart...I love you more...I loved you first...Miss you soooooo much

Alex,
Everyone at Coopers honored you today as we had our first ALEX JONES WELLNESS WALK and SAFETY DAY! So many people stood in silence as they looked at your precious pictures of you with your friends and family. I know you must have been smiling down on your family as they made hundreds and hundreds of snow cones. All the kids were dressed in your favorite color...red. The weather was perfect...God was looking out for us. There were signs throughout the school with balloons celebrating YOU! You will never be forgotten, Alex. You touched so many lives and had so many friends who loved you.
Your mommy cares for and loves my little Brayden. I beleive God brought us together because I couldn't have had a better mommy to take care of my little boy then your mommy! She misses you so very badly and loves you more than any words could express. There are pictures of you everywhere....
Your sweet smile... to me you look just like Chloe! My favorite is the one with you holding a hotdog! You're a precious angel. I pray for your family that the pain will lessen. They miss everything about you so, so, so, much!

Allie,
Love you the world...more than the stars in the sky...forever and ever...with my whole heart...and I loved you first...
Miss you my little one...the pain is unbearable....you should be here with me...with us...nothing is ever the same as hard as I try...always in my thoughts...I miss everything about you!!
Love you always....bunches and bunches...Mommy

Alex,
Mack and Chloe went to the Childrens Museum today...I remember going with you last year...we had a blast...watching the space movie...creating a tornado...looking at the snakes and other unique animals...eating lunch...I forgot to pack me a lunch and as always, you insisted I eat half of yours...we had to leave a little early to go back to school for kite day. GiGi and Grandpa Jim came up to visit...you should be here with us...Keith is playing baseball again...his first game is tomorrow...he had not picked up a baseball in over a year...he misses you lots...his room is full of your memories. He has stapled one of your shirts to his ceiling...as well as your pictures...he has carved your name into his chest of drawers...and a picture blanket perfectly lays across his bed each day. Mack still sleeps in one of your tee shirts every night...none of us are the same...
Today wasn't such a good day...I am sure you already know..I can't talk about it now, but I just pray God will be with me and your daddy to help us through this...
You are always in my heart and always present in my thoughts...
I love you with my whole heart...more than the world...more than the stars...forever and ever...and I loved you first...
Mommy

Allie,
I miss you soooooo much...the ache just will never go away. I don't think I will ever feel true happiness again. To loose you was to loose part of myself...something I just can't explain. Baseball season is here again...the end of another school year is quickly approaching...soccer season will end soon...time passes so quickly, but the pain doesn't. I just pray for strength every day!! Never will I understand why this accident happened!! The kids and I are always remembering little things you did or things you would say....When you were two I told Stephanie to go and get the (I spelled it out) lotion and you said "No Lotion"...we just looked at you and laughed out loud...you were amazing...do you remember driving the riding lawn mower into the swing set...racing with Mack and always letting her win...singing your favorite songs...your funny dances...your amazing toe touch...by the way it was perfect...jumping in the leaves...playing hide and seek...camping out in the back yard...catching tree frogs and bringing them into the house...
Guess what...I have been able to keep your cabbage plant alive...don't know why it has lived, but it is now 14 months old...a cabbage plant haha. I keep it inside with my other house plants and you should see it. I show it to everyone. I wonder just how big it will actually get.
Just always know that you were and still are loved very much...God, I hope you knew that.
Love you forever...more than the world and the stars...with my whole heart..and Alex...I loved you first..
My precious little boy you will always be...Mommy

Alex my little man, Gigi is not good at writing letters but I think of you so much. I keep reading the letter from the messengar brought your Mommy. Please dont cry for me. I am in heaven and its so pretty.Some days I look up and I see you and Buster running in the clouds. We all miss you so much. I keep thinking you said you did not want to come back. Alex you left us on Aunt Jodies birthday. She is going to be so happy when she goes to heaven and you meet her along with Granny Anita and Popa Robert.
I laughed once when I talked to you and you wanted to know if the lake was still behing my house. Your family was coming for a vacation. We went and got food to feed the fish so you could catch the big ole 13 poung bass. I remember how in that deep voice of yours how you would say "Gigi you make the best corn bread". It was the same corn bread your Mother made.
What I would give to see Shreck one time with you. I had learned it by heart watching it with you so much. I think Daddy watched it with you everynight. You were so squeaky clean and smelt so good.

Dear Roberta and Family,
Please know that so many people are still thinking about you, praying for your comfort and truly care about you! It breaks my heart when I think of the sorrow that you feel. There are so many things one can say, but unless one has lived through the loss of a child they cannot fathom your feelings and those words would be meaningless.
Please just know that you have not been forgotten.
March 18, 2007
Alex,
One year ago today our lives changed forever and will indeed never be the same. We took life itself, as we knew it, for granted as though we were untouchable as if the bubble that protected our family would never burst. In an instant that ever so protective bubble did burst and all of our lives were changed forever. The helplessness your daddy and I felt that day brings us such grief...we were suppose to protect all of our children, but this time we could not prevent you from this most horrible accident. I am so sorry Alex...If I could change anything that happened that day I would...I would have held you tight that morning and never let go...I would have gladly taken your place. Every minute of that day is vividly clear in my mind and those unforgettable words spoken to us by the Doctor at Pitt play over and over in my head..."He has no brain activity"..Nothing could have ever prepared me for the stabbing pain that brought me to the floor...I kept thinking this cannot be....
Now the memories of your life are all we have, yet the unknown is also tremendously hurtful. How big would you be now? What pretty girl would you and Patrick be arguing over? What would be your likes and dislikes...what size shoe would you be wearing? Would you still like to wear your baseball hat backwards....would you still like vdeo games and watching cartoons...would you still like flying kites...would you still like chips and cheese...would you still let me sleep with you...would you still treasure one on one time with daddy...would you still keep Mack by your side...would you still be loud...would you still fuss over your hair...
Do you remember the chain saw in your pocket....using vagasil in your hair when you thought it was hair gel...we laughed so hard...using body soap for lotion...oh how you itched...do you remember falling off of the four wheeler...do you remember eating popscicles by the pool...lots and lots of popscicles...I'll never forget all the things that made you special...that made you such a wonderful little boy...my little boy...
March 18th, 2006 changed the world as I see it...the words perfect and complete no longer exist in my vocabulary as nothing will ever be perfect or complete again in my life time. Your beautiful smile will always enlighten me...your love of life will always impress me and your gift of giving will always make me proud. You touched and continue to touch many people...you are one of a kind and unreplaceable. My love for you remains even as the hurt is unbearable...no child should be taken from their mother...it is just not the way it is suppose to be...
I will love you forever and always Alex...I will love you more than the whole world...I will love you with my whole heart...I love you more....
Mommy

Dearest Roberta, Larry and family, I was just sitting here thinking about your family knowing a year anniversary was rolling around the corner. I took some time to read all the entries and how very special your son was and still is to you and so many others. I wish there were magical words to erase the pain and anguish you have dealt with over the past year.Alex is a shining star in the evenings to watch over the family at night and is the fresh smell of spring to awaken you each morning. He is your guardian angel and while here on earth. he did so much more than most of us do in a lifetime to touch others lives. You have so much to be proud of.I know you would rather have him here on earth, that is only human nature. Do know that he is with God and will forever be in your heart. He hears your prayers and sees your tears and the love that still exists here on earth for him. You all are a wonderful family and I just wanted to let you know you are in my prayers. May you find strength and peace in your daily lives. Always a friend, Maria

Alex,
It has been almost 1 whole year.
It is almost my birthday.
remember playing wrestling matches...swimming in the pool...playing with Alan and I. Oh, boy my heart aches without you. I go to a different school now. Remember going to my catholic church. I go to that school there now. It is too hard for me to think of you. I was sick last night like I was when you went to heaven. Chloe is still asking me about that kind of stuff about heaven.
Your best friend,
Patrick.

Mr. Jones,
I met you last night in the airport and I am so grateful that you told me about your son. I kept my word and looked at this site when I got home. I have been sitting here for alomst an hour reading every bit of the entries people have written to your family or about your son. He is adorable and sounds like an amazing kid. I am so happy that Alex was able to affect that many peoples lives in the short amount of time he was here...you are so lucky. I wanted to thank you for telling me your story last night, I have already spread it to many of my friends and family. You truely touched me last night when we met, and I believe that is why my flight was delayed. I wish nothing but happiness for your family and I know that it is possible because you have a very special angel with you at all times.
March 7, 2007
We are praying for you.

Alex,
Our First Anniversary without you is approaching soon and I'll be the first to admit that time does not heal!! I can't believe you have been gone from our lives for oh so long...each day there are tears and each day you are missed more than words could ever say. Chloe slept with your picture under her pillow last night as she cried...she misses you so much...and Mackenzie now sleeps in your bed every night...I can't help but think of you each time I look at the her...you were her life. I try so very hard to be excited of your siblings individual achievements...I can only imagine what you would be doing now...how tall would you be...who would be your girlfriend...soccer season and baseball season is approaching...what positions would you play. I opened one of your drawers tonight and looked at your pajma bottoms with the little soccer balls on them...they look so small...you seemed so big to me, but yet you were still so very small...I held them close and tried to smell you...nothing there...The pain, hurt and aches are with me daily...I should have drowned in my tears by now...I just want you back so bad. I remember every little detail of the worst day of my life...and I cherish every little detail when you were mine. God I hope you knew just how special you were and how very much I loved you...Mackenzie has strep throat...you had it this same time last year...I still have your medicine bottle. Alex...I love you forever and always...with my whole heart...more than the whole world...forever and ever...and I love you more...Kisses to you my precious little boy...Mommy

Alex,
I can't get passed the word WHY...why you...why were you taken from us...
The hurt is still like an ache that will not go away...My life seems oh so empty. Valentines Day was yesterday...last year Buster was hit by a car and I remember you asking me...Mama, why did God take Buster on Valentines Day? As I gave you a big hug all I can remember saying is that maybe Buster died on Valentines day so we would never forget him. I looked through the Valentines cards that your friends gave you last year...I think you kept every one of them...you ate all of the candy...I remember you putting the box of chocolates daddy and I gave you in the top dresser drawer so no one would find it and you would sneak a piece whenever you wanted. Oh my dear little boy...I want to hear your voice so bad...I want to hear your laugh...I want to feel your ever so sweet hugs...I want you to be with me...I want to see your funny faces...I want to hear you sing...I want to just feel your presence...I want to take care of you again ...Why...Why...Why...The emptiness will never go away. I will always love you my sweet Alex...with my whole heart...forever and ever...I love you more than the stars and the universe...and remember I loved you first!!
Mommy

Alex,
Love you the world...I opened the hall closet today and out of no where fell your angel that you made last Christmas...I put it in the window of my office so the light could shine through...I remember how proud you were when you brought it home to me. Miss you so...so...soooooo much...I want you back in my arms...if only I had one more chance to take care of you.....my little boy you will always be...Mommy
December 28, 2006
Alex,
I can't even begin to tell you how hard the so called "holidays" have been for me. I used every ounce of energy to decorate and wrap presents...Mack and Chloe wanted so much to wrap presents for you and place them ever so perfectly under the tree...Mack said we could put them in your closet after Christmas...Macks heart is so broken as she still cries and cries wanting her sweet sweet brother back...I don't even understand myself so I pray every day for God to give me strength...I remember how you would open each present so carefully...you would play for a while and then open another making it last all day. You had such fun wearing your little Santa hat and oh how cute you were...You would be the first to say, "Merry Christmas Mama" as you would give me a big strong bear hug!! Last Christmas you got a remote controlled Hummer...Buster chased it and finally pounced on it...I don't think it worked after that. Dad and I gave Steph, Keith, Mack and Chloe each a blanket with their favorite pictures of you weaved throughout...Mack layed on the floor and kissed you and kissed you as we all wanted you here with us. Coopers had an Alex tree and oh how beautiful it was...each child made a special ornament...some had special messages...when I saw it completed the moment was magical...definitely a tree of Love. I miss everything about you and the ache doesn't go away...it is constant...I guess I try to stay busy diverting my mind but it always comes back to you. Your bike parked perfectly in the barn, your motorcycle helmet hanging on the wall, your baseball bats, your skates, your boots...everytime I see a shovel I remember how you would dig in the dirt all the time..we never understood what exactly you were digging for but daddy had to get a load of dirt once to fill in where you had dug so much. Oh God Alex I am so full of hurt and anger I feel like I am going crazy at times. I can't even refer to the word "Perfect" anymore because nothing is now...I did think I had the perfect family...I felt as if my life was so complete and now the emptiness is overwhelming. Your room is still the same as you left it except Mack has put a few stuffed animals in there and we put the old computer on your desk. Mack says you would be happy if she had your room but that is a hard one because I can't even think about moving out your stuff....oh God this isn't how things were suppose to be. Stephanie dreams about you and she hears your voice but I haven't had one dream yet...why can't I dream about you? The hot water heater had to be replaced this week and guess what daddy and I found...your huge kite..I remember you and Patrick flying those kites all over the yard and Claudia letting you two tie them to the golf cart...WoW did you two have a fun time. Quess what Chloe's favorite food is...a jelly sandwich...I remember this was a favorite of yours...I had to cut the edges off. Oh my sweet little boy...mommy's little angel...AJ..Apple Jack...Doodle Bug Chicken Frog...Daddy's little Man...Allie...love you bunches and bunches...forever and ever...more than the whole world and the stars and the universe... Mommy
P.S....Stephanie, Keith and I saw the Bubbles

Alex,
School starting this year has been oh so hard this year!! Mackenzie has Ms. Jones...one of your favorite teachers...she is taking really good care of her. Everyone still calls her "Mini Me"...she gets lots and lots of hugs every day...oh how I wanted to go school shopping for you...get your post card in the mail letting us know who your teacher would be...I miss getting you ready for school in the morning and seeing you rush inside every afternoon...watching you diligently doing your homework...and playing outside. Soccer started today...my heart is broken and I wanted you to be there...you were awesome...Patrick isn't playing this year as it is too hard without you...I sleep in your bed every night, holding onto "BUG" as I wrap myself in your motorcycle sweat shirt...Wish you were here to keep me warm...
Tears still fall forming rivers and my heart will forever ache...
I love you bunches and bunches...forever and ever...more than the whole world...with all of my heart (remember..we said this every night)

Alex,
I can't even begin to tell you how much I love you and miss you. Last night I cried and cried. I just want to hear you tell me "I love you Nic Nic". I took for granted the time I thought we had to spend together. Oh what I would give to pull your little fat toes again. Or to have you explain like a little man how to play video games. Remember last year when you helped me put up my Christmas tree. Those lights were so tangle but you just sat there and helped me untangle them.There was so much that I wanted to teach you. I have your pictures up all over the place but I just want to hold you and tell you how much I love you.
Mommy
July 3, 2006
Alex,
Every time I close my eyes I see you...I just want you hear with us and I am having a hard time trying to figure out why you were taken from us. So much to give the world...it is so not fair. I would have gladly given my own life to save yours. I try to find comfort in the memories as I have many...I try to small your clothes, your hats, your pillows, but it's not there. It is so hard to smile and keep things together for everybody else. I try to stay busy...that doesn't work. I pray to God to help me have strength to make it through each day. Your birthday is comming up soon...I know you wanted to have your birthday at the beach this year and I promised you...oh I am so sorry I cna't do it. Oh Alex...I just hope you knew just how much I loved you...I slept in your bed last night and held on tight to your "bug"...cried myself to sleep and hoped to dream about you...why can't I dream about you? All for now and I love you forever...with my whole heart...Bunches and bunches...Mommy

Mr. and Mrs. Jones,
I've only spoken to you both for no more than 10 minutes each, but I truly know God is holding your family together by the way you received my phone call. Even though you're missing a peice of your heart God will continue to cover you and your family through His grace. My prayers will continue for you and your children. The fruits of the spirit have definitely shined through you both through this testimony. God is also increasing your faith in Him.

Alex,
Mommy misses you so much...every minute of every day!! Mackenzie asked me today what Heaven looked like. Of course I told her how beautiful it was...then she asked me if Heaven had sand boxes...I told her I hoped so. She remembers the big castle the two of you made...I guess I should go ahead and tell you that Chloe and Taylor smushed it...all of our lives have changed forever without you. Our family is not complete anymore and it never will be again. Remember Easter Egg hunting at GiGi's house...your bag had a hole in it and all of your eggs kept falling out...your last Halloween costume...two sizes too little...the wrestling matches with Patrick...playing catch with Alan...he missed and the ball smacked him right in the nose...taking Reebok to the movies...burping the entire alphabet...
You are missed every day and my little angel you will always be...Love you forever...bunches and bunches...more than the whole world....with all of my heart...Mommy

Alex,
I guess this isn't such a good day...the tears fall like rain drops down my face as I miss you so much...a piece of me has been ripped away forever...
I remember when you were 11 months old and we all were at the beach...you were on your daddy's shoulders and you said the words "bye bye" for the first time in that oh so deep little voice...for some reason you liked to put the beach sand in your mouth no matter how hard we tried to keep you from doing it...then you would throw up every afternoon. I remember when you were two and I had taken you shopping at Steinmart...you loved hiding from me...panic struck my entire body when I could not find you...the store doors were locked and everyone frantically began the search...you wouldn't answer me when I called your name...then behind a table sitting on the floor there you were...ripping open toy after toy...I had to pay for the toys you opened and I scolded you, but oh how over joyed I was to have found you. All the memories are clear and all I have to get me through each day...
I love you with all my heart and forever and ever...more than the whole world!!

Easter is almost here...not having you with me is unbearable!! My life is forever changed as I miss you every minute of every day!! You brought so much joy to my life...I just want to hear your deep voice and see your ever so sweet smile...feel your strong hugs...watch you eat lots and lots of hot sauce, do your crazy dives in the pool...just to see you playing with your little sisters...making base hits in baseball...sharing together our little secrets...sneaking you ice cream at night...picking out your clothes every morning...digging in the sand...having birthdays at the beach...fixing you tuna sandwiches every afternoon after school...laughing at your silly jokes...reading all of your special notes to me everyday......riding your dirt bike.......sleeping with you every night...... My sweet, sweet boy forever...Love you with all of my heart...more than the whole world...forever and ever!!!

The tears I have are from being happy that I had you in my life, if only for a little while, and to open my eyes to the little things that everyone forgets and to teach me the value of a simple smile or a gentle hug. I tried to look after you and I am so blessed to have you as my angel and have you look after us now. I love you and always will. See you again one day, baby. Your Big Sister

Words can never say how deeply we feel about your loss. Having spent time with Alex in our home makes us feel like we are extended family. Alex was such a sweet young man and we were glad to have him visit with Patrick. He added pleasure to our birthday celebration last October and we enjoyed coaching him in fly rod casting. Each time we have visited in Nashville and have been around your family we have felt the love and closeness that you all share. We are with you in thoughts and prayers. We love you all. Ron and Linda Hall

To the Jones Family, I am so saddened to hear of the loss of Alex. I never had the pleasure of teaching Alex but he was always very nice and polite to me at Coopers. I do remember helping test him for Kindergarten. I am the lady in the carlot in the afternoons with the walkie talkie. We never know why things happen and can't help but to question them. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers. Anita Turner
