It is hard to believe that today has been 1 year. For a girl who's generally decent with words, am at a loss for them now.



I love you, Aunt Robin, and miss you tremendously.



Let peace and tranquility always be with you.



Sincerely,

Your neice

To Jerry, Robin, and Josh:

I was once a young adult with problems. I came to Sacramento unannounced and landed at Jerry and Robins door step. They both took me in without a blink of an eye. From that day on we became very good friends, not just cousins. That was 26 years ago. You people were what FAMILY MEANT! No questions asked.

Robin... I feel assured in my heart that you are with all our loved ones above and safe and OK. Too young to pass on honey, but God must have needed you there! My hopes and thoughts are now with your beloved Jerry and Josh, that they can make it thru this with the help of the Lord. I didnt really get the chance to thank you for being MY FRIEND, So Now I am! I love you, and I will always remember that when you were just a baby, you sang the "Witch Doctor song at my mom and dads wedding as the flower girl! SO CUTE! (Theres a Home Movie of it somewhere) Rest Easy ... the guys will be just fine... Guardian Angels are watching!

Jerry, you were a pillar of strength when I needed one ! THANKYOU.... I know you will do even better for your SON. Love you BROTHER! GOD SPEED !

FOR JOSH: Someday when we meet again, I will tell you what a wonderful, funny, lovely, person your'e mother was to me!

I know that there are no words that can ease the pain that Jerry and Josh feel at this time of loss;however, remembering the wonderful things about Robin keep her close to us. She had such a wonderful laugh, and enjoyed talking so much and she was so full of love and concern for her family. She was a wonderful sister-in-law and would be the first to know when Melody needed her. I still remember her as a small girl that I used to give quarters to so she would leave her sister and I alone for awhile. She will be missed in the flesh but she will always be in our hearts. I know she will look down on us and insure we are all OK as her love will live on forever. She is in my prayers daily as are my brother-in-law Jerry and Josh.

My Dearest Baby Sister

I know I didn't show you or tell you often enough just how very much I Love you. I tried so hard to get to you before you passed on and as usual I got here 1 day too late. I will always hold you in my heart until one day I can hold you in my arms once more.

You will always be in my prayers my dear baby sister.

So.....until we meet again....

I Love You with all my Heart and Soul and Always will.

I cannot express how deeply my heart grieves for my Uncle Jerry and my little cousin Josh. It is difficult to find words that might ease their pain, if even in the smallest of ways. My sympathies extend to her sisters and brothers, neices and nephews, friends. And to myself, however bold, as she was not only my aunt, but my push, my friend. I thank God for the telephone and for all the times we used it calling eachother. Nearly daily. You will truely live in my heart forever, Aunt Robin.



Journey



Minds tire, bodies weaken, fatalities,

Does anyone know?

When suddenly the power of God has decided,

It's time to go.

Pulling you in, easing the pain

Suffering eased, a journey attained.

Loved ones, past, gathering at the gates, Whispering ...please, come home.

Breathing family begging, stay,

Don't leave us alone.

There are rarely certainties,

Our tomorrows are unknown.

Knowing you, loving you, Aunt Robin,

Our spirits have grown.

We come into this world, born,

Destined to be together,

We exit the world the same, Absolute, united,

As eternity is forever.

You too have been chosen,

The rest of us, almost there.

Earth versus heaven,

Not always seemingly fair.

Gone only from the feeling, touching, aspects of our lives,

Never from the heart,

Or our beings

Or our memories,

Or all that it seems,

Rest peacefully, Godspeed, Sweet dreams.



Sincerely and with much love

Forever and a day



~Your neice
