Hi Kaycee. I was talking about today and yesterday. I miss you. Love you .

KayCee,
It's been a long time, and I miss you now more than ever. I wonder who you would've grown up to be, and how truly special and unique you would've been bringing joy and light to all those around you.
Your smile and gentle kindness are what made you the incredibly talented, wonderful person we all knew and loved. It's hard to not smile when I see pictures of you being happy with friends. I remember how happy you were and how your warmth would spread to all your friends. Truly a treasure. One of the best people I've ever known.
I was talking about you with a friend tonight and I couldn't help but cry for how much I miss you. I hope to see you again someday KayCee. I truly do. I love you. I'll never ever stop missing you.

KayCee, its been 13 years since you passed away. Hard to believe it because I still remember your bright and pure smile and happy laugh. I am sure you are happy where you are but I wonder who youd be today if you were still here. You were one of the truest souls I have ever met and you were able to teach me so much at such a young age. You never cared what people thought about you and did what made you happy. Your beautiful soul lives on with all of us today and I was blessed to have known you. Miss you so much and think about you often, especially when I see those beautiful dragonflies.

Kaycee. Ive been thinking about you a lot lately and i cannot believe its been 11 years. I miss you all the time, the way you seen life was amazing for a 13 year old but i look that and ran with it. Life is way to short to stress about the small stuff. I know you are doing well up with god. You were a big part of my life even if i didnt voice it enough. Love you to the moon Kayc. See you one day!

I miss you my beautiful girl, but I know you are doing the Lord's work and preparing a kingdom for you and your family. My lil girl is so blessed to have been able to be with you before Heavenly Father sent her to be with me. I am reminded that she is only on loan to me, so I'm doing my best to raise her right. I just hope I can do as wonderful of a job as your mom did with you. I think of you everyday my girl. Thank you for being her guardian angel. I love and miss you with all my heart.
August 2, 2011
Kaycee, I miss your smile and i miss hearing your voice and laughter. Coming over to your house to hang out with ash was always that much more crazier when you were home. A lot of my memories at that house have you in it. The tree house, the fog machine, so many more memories. The one i remember the most was when we were waiting for our team to get to your house and we were eating spaghetti and we were going to act like we didnt notice them.. You acted like you understood, but right when they walked in your shoved your face with a HUGE spoon full of spaghetti and started laughing while it was falling out of your mouth. haha, You were always making all of us laugh. I will never forget you. I cant wait till i can see your beautiful face again. Send more drangonflies. I love seeing them. Makes me think of you even more. :) :) You're missed so much kayc. -Jenn.

KayCee, I miss you so much everyday. I cant believe its been 8 years since you left us. Some days it feel like just yesterday. I went to your sisters wedding a few weeks ago and she looked beautiful, im sure you know that tho. Its crazy that she is married but it seems like she is very happy. I miss you K and love you. Till I see you again ill look for you in the rainbows and know your smiling down on us all.

I didn't fully understand what Memorial Day was all about until I lost you my dear baby girl....I wish I could say that time stopped after we lost you but it hasn't. Life goes speeding by and doesn't show any signs of slowing down. I watch Hunter grow and each year that goes by marks another year without you...he's lived 6 1/2 years and finished kindergarten this year and it takes me back to when you were that age, and how quickly you grew up. I miss you and long for the day when I will be able to embrace you in my arms again.

Beautiful KayCee,
I was going through some old things and finding old pictures and ran across a couple pictures of KayCee. I immediately broke out in tears. I have delt with the fact that she is no longer here and I have been fine, but for some reason tonight, it just all came out. All the pain and hurt that I have locked away for the last 6 and a half years. I miss you so much KayCee! I didn't realize i was still so broken. I thought I had mended as well as I could, but today I was just ripped apart all over again. I can't help but wonder where you would be today if you were still with us. Would you be going to college, or working? Maybe both? Would we still be friends possibly closer then ever before or would we slowly drift apart? I like to think of us being the best of friends and no matter how many miles between us or how many days or years pass between meetings that the times we do talk are special and always remembered. I miss your beautiful smile and your wonderful laugh. The light in your eyes and excitment in your voice. Your faith was always so strong. I have never been that commited to anything. But I want to be. I want to be just like you! I wish I still had you here to be my shining example even though you are younger than I.
I send my love to your family and hope they are well, and trust that you are happy and helping those on the other side. I love you, to the moon and back, forever and always!
A Friend
P.S. Miss you more and more every day! Counting til I get to see your shining face again! It's been 2452 days without you... ? til I get to see you... I love you!

It has been so long since I have written on here. So many things have changed, but I still think of you constantly. I am the secretary in the young womens in my ward and a few weeks ago I was teaching a lesson. It was on the value of human life. While I was preparing the first person I thought of was Kaycee. I told my young women how she had such a short life, but touched so many people and lived such an amazing life.
Debbie, I want you to know that I think about you a lot and I remember all of the times we shared at your house and the wonderful parties we had. You are such an amazing mom and Kaycee is blessed so much to have you as a mother.
I can't wait to see again someday, Kaycee.
February 20, 2010
It has been so long since I have posted..I miss you 3 girls...and I miss your Smile Kaycee...I went to the cemetery last week and it it reminded me of all the love you gave without ever asking for any in return..I left with peace in my heart....something I have needed...
It makes me sad to know shortly I will be leaving Salt lake for a long time...and the cemetery...my place of peace...will be so far away...but I know there are a few who will still take care of them...and decorate...but I will miss it...

Hello my beautiful girl,
I'm thinking of you and your mother tonight. I wish my husband had the blessing of meeting you and my other two girls. I talk of you and your family all the time and of course I brag of your moms cooking to him. I share all our notes and we admire all your pictures.
We found out that we are going to have a baby in May. I hope that you and this blessing are enjoying each other. I know that you'll teach this child all your little tricks and pranks ;-) Please tell this child that we are so honored and so blessed to be their parents.
Kaycee, I love you very much. You are my inspiration to continue to better myself and be a righteous daughter of our Heavenly Father. I LOVE LOVE LOVE and MISS MISS MISS my beautiful girl!

Hey girl I had to take moment to visit here and let you know how much we all miss you. Ashley called me wanting a perm and I thought of the time you wanted one also and also of how much you hated it after. But you got over it and like the trooper you are made the best of it. Give my parents a big hug for me. Love Auntie Diane

Hey Kaycee. Hows it up there? I miss you like crazy! I havent seen ash in a while. i miss her like crazy!! When i think of you, i think of when i slept over at your house and we were eating spaghetti in your back yard with some of the softball girls. LOL you were putting so much in your mouth and laughing. Lol. I remember when we were in your tree house and we were playing the shocking game. lol. i was always so scared to do it. Lol. i miss you kaycee. and so does danielle. We always talk about you and how we love you. I cant wait till i see you again girl. love you.
July 23, 2009
I can't believe its been almost 5 years now since you passed it feels like it just happened yesterday. I can still remember when i found out and how heart broken i was. Ive been thinking about you a lot lately and every time it gets harder to hold back the tears.
I miss you so much I will never find another friend like you. My life will never be the same now that your gone.
I love you to the moon and back and i want you to know im always thinking about you
April 30, 2009
HI, Kaycee, I am about crying right now, just looking at your pictures. I miss you so much. I talked to your mom the other day, and she was telling me that my dad is a good example to your family. I love my dad for that. He is a good man. I enjoyed going Hometeaching with him on occasion. I can't believe it I will be 20 years old next month. I love you and miss you so much Kaycee. From your friend Brittney

So many thoughts are running through my mind as I type this. How life has gone on for all your friends and how time hasn't seemed to stop. It didn't hit me until Sat. when Ashley was finally ready to leave for Prom and I snapped a picture of Cierra, MaKenzy and Ashley how there was a hole there where you should of been. It was a reminder of all the things I didn't get to do with you. How much fun it's been bonding with Ashley and seeing her transformation into a beautiful young woman, who's experiencing so many firsts right now. I miss you so much, words just don't do justice, and as your friends begin to get married and the boys go on missions it makes me wonder what life would be like if you were still here. We plug along, striving to live valiantly and do the Lords work, and I know that you are doing the same. It's amazing how many tender mercies I continue to see that bear witness of the divinity of Heavenly Father and His son. I will continue my dear daughter to live up to the convenants I made with your father in the temple ensuring that our family will be eternal. It's the knowledge of knowing that if I do I will see you again that keeps me going. I love you and miss you and just want you to know you've been on my mind....

Happy Birthday! We hope they celebrate birthdays in heaven. We have been thinking about you all day. We miss having your family in our neighborhood, but they have a wonderful new home in the Midwest. They are making a huge positive impact in their new area. We are sure you are very proud of them, as you look down from heaven.

Hello my pretty girl! It's been a while since I have written you. Last week for some reason was extremely difficult for me. All I could do was think of my girls, that day, and what it would be like if my girls were still here. The hardest part I'd say is trying to grasp the fact that there was nothing that couldve been done. I'm still trying to come to the terms that Heavenly Father has a plan for us...but anyways... I think of you by day and pray for you at night...I want you to know that I love you will all my heart and always will. I MISS MISS MISS and LOVE LOVE LOVE my pretty girl!!!!

I always end up thinking about you at the strangest times! Like right now for instance. Midnight right now and just simple things make me think about you and then I can't stop crying at all.. I know it's never going to get easier too and it makes it so much harder.. I can't even understand why something like that could ever happen to someone as amazing as you and it makes me so mad and then I just cry more.. I know there has to be a reason but I can't help being so angry and sad about it all the time. I can't even imagine how hard all of this has been on your parents, especially your mom. I know she has to be the strongest person I know to make it through all of this and I really respect her for handling it so well. I'm sure she has these days where we all just break down though too. That's never going to change either. Every time I see your picture it just gets even worse. The only thing that seems to help at all is writing on this because I hope that somehow you know what I'm saying.. I wish I could've had so much more time to grow up with you Kaycee :'[
Love, Trevyn.

I just can't believe that it's been five years since I walked over to the church with you that early Thursday morning to send you off on youth conference. I still go through everything that we did that morning. From fixing the herb tea to help try and settle your stomach. I every once in a while allow myself to wonder if I did not listen to that still small voice of doubt...yet know in my heart that I would of never kept you from going. Were would of my faith been? In those five years my dear daughter I've learned so much of our Heavenly Father's tender mercies. His great love for us and an unwaivering knowledge that if I live righteously and keep the covenants that I made with Him in the temple that I will have all that I could ever want and that is to have my family complete once more. Oh how I miss you. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you or wonder what it would be like to still have you here, but I don't question any more. I realize that you accomplished all that you needed to and I have still have work to do. So I endure and continue to put one foot in front of the other always trying to be the person that you would be proud to say "that's my mom" How I wish I could hold you in my arms as I did that day five years ago. It seems like yesterday yet also seems like a life time ago....time has taken on a whole new dimension. They say time heals all wounds, but it's more time gives you the ability to deal with the pain better, not that it'll ever go away...and truly I don't want it to. It's what keeps me motivated and inspired to live valiantly. I say that I live hell now gladly knowing what is at stake. I can't imagine getting to the other side and living with the regret that IF I would of just tried harder maybe I would of been with family. Many people will never know this agony until it's too late to change their lives...after all I'll have the eternities to be with you and that will never end. One day this pain will, until then I will keep trying my dear daughter. It's the way that I can show you just how much I really do love and miss you. I realize that Heavenly Father isn't so different as He waits for us to hopefully return to His presence......I wasn't expecting this to be so difficult but it is...and as Merry says, "it is what it is" life wasn't meant to be easy, only worth it in the end. How can we learn of the atonement and really appreciate all it does without trials such as this. I gladly bare it knowing how much closer it has brought me to Heavenly Father and the Savior. Realizing just how much I need them both and the gratitude I have for their love and comfort....I don't know why I do this...maybe I feel it's being recorded or that your reading my thoughts who knows but I just wanted you to know that I'm trying and still loving you. Always have, always will.
Love Mom

WOW!!! looking back on the things i wrote before, we were so young i havent writen in forever, but yet not a day goes by i dont think of you, i just get so busy. were now both 18 and should be gradutating high school of course it wouldnt be together sense i have moved but knowing you would be here still would make it all worth while, and as before i'm not quiet sure of what to say, looking back on what was wrote and the time we had spent together brings tears to my eyes, well i'm sure youre watching down on us, and have seen how are lives have changed, im 18 weeks pregnant and i wish i could share this with you, i know that i will see you again one day, and until then you will always live in me, as a friend and a thought and as a love.
March 16, 2008
KayCee,
I still miss you so much. I can't believe it has been 4 1/2 years since you passed away, it seems like just yesterday, but forever ago at the same time. You were always so kind. I miss your smile the most. I didn't matter what was wrong, you could always brighten anyones mood with a smile, or a simple hello. Something so small helped me get through my days. It is so hard with out you! I miss you so much. I can't wait to see you again! Thank you for always being so kind, I strive every day to be more like you, my angel. I love you!
February 29, 2008
I miss you.
I miss your smile.
And i still shed a tear every once in a while.
Even though its different now.
You're still here some how.
My heart wont let you go,
and i need you to know...
I miss you.

I miss you! I can't believe another year comes and goes without you. This past week has been so tough. Christmas and the New Year then taking Ashley to go get her permit.....I was so happy and proud of her for passing her test the first time yet the inner battle and turmoil over never having that experience with you was so bitter. Heck this month has been tough. It's so hard to believe you would be 18 now. Your father has even talked about how tough it's been. Life goes on for everyone else yet we seem to be trapped in a time warp. It feels like it's been forever since I held you in my arms yet only yesterday since you died. I wonder if life will ever be the same and yet I know it can't be, how can it be when you're no longer with us. Oh how I miss you! Just know that you're in my thoughts as always.

I know I'm late but i just wanted to wish you a happy birthday!!! I still miss you a lot and i know i havent been on here in so long but i know you know i havent forgotten you at all. I cant believe you would be 18. I wonder how you would have grown and how you would have celebrated this year but I'm sure you are having a great time where you are!! These years have flown by so quickly i just cant believe it. I miss seeing your mom like i used to but i hope she and the rest are your family are all doing well. Life is very different for me these days but i find comfort writing to you and i pray every night to and know you are listening and helping in everyway. I have started college now and feel so old i know im not but its so weird to think about living the real life!!! I'm all grown up and you would have been so beautiful as you turned 18 this year. I miss you very much and a day doesnt pass that you arent in my mind. I hope all is well for everyone at this difficult time of year and wish you and your family a very merry christmas!!! Love always and forever, Cassy

I was thinking about you all last night Kaycee!! I almost started crying but I kept it together but I just barely started thinking about you a lot and I couldn't hold myself together. I miss you so much. I can't believe that you would've turned 18 today. I miss you so much!!!! I just want to see you again. I can't stand going to school and thinking about everything you could've been involved in and how many lives you would've changed just by being your amazing self. I always think about you and it hurts so much that you're gone. I really do hope that whatever you're doing that you're really happy and making a difference even though I know you are. I'm so thankful for all the times we were about to spend together and all the time I had the privilege to spend with you. You're still such an important part of my life and that will never change. I can never stop thinking about you, you're just mean way too much to me to ever let go. I can't wait to see you again some day! It'll be so wonderful and I can't wait.
I love you so much Kaycee!!
December 6, 2007
Well my darling daughter. I have to say that with each passing year it feels as if many have gone on with their lives and your absense. I struggle at this time of year wondering if others still remember that today is your birthday. As I laid in bed last night thinking about the night I gave birth to you I was overcome with such emotions. I could of never imagined that I would loose you almost 14 short years later. What would I have done differently? What changes would I have made? Of coarse that's foolish since there is no going back only forward. I want you to know that I am trying, since I can't show my love for you physically. I can walk forward in faith, being a good mom to your siblings and father. I can serve others and grow in knowledge and wisdom. I can put my trust in Heavenly Father and go to Him for comfort since your loving hugs are hard to come by and endure, yes endure I must. I can't buy you gifts or shower you with things that I once thought were important but I can try to live worthy to once again earn the honor of standing in Heavenly Father's presence where I imagine Him saying "You did well daughter, you endured your trials to the end here is all that I have to offer you," and you walking up to embrace me never to be apart like this again. My actions each day are a token of my love for you, and when I fall short the same love I have for you the Savior gives to me in His atoning sacrafice that I can become whole and worthy of the eternal blessings which I seek. Oh KayCee how I miss you, words just don't even express my heartache at times like this but I know I must go on and do with a perfect brightness of what hope really is. Happy Birthday my sweet dear daughter. I love you to the moon and back...and then some...

KayCee! I really can't believe that it's been 4 years.. it still hits me as hard as it did and I don't know if that will ever change. I always think that I'll be ok when I go to put something on this guest book, but everytime I even see a picture of you I just hurt so much and I want to see you again so badly, I always end up crying today and on the 6th of December because it's your birthday. I just want you to know that I miss you so much and I would really give anything in the world to be able to just see you again, in any way. I just wish there was some way that I could see you again and know that you're happy and want to see all of us too. These 4 years have been really hard to get through, a lot has changed but one thing that won't ever change is everyone thinking about you. It's so hard to go to high school and think that you should be here with all of us but you're not and it makes everything so much worse.. I really miss you so much, I just pray that you're doing well and that we can all see you again someday. I love you KayCee. I'll see you again someday and I can't wait to.

KayCee, I see signs of you all around me. The moon last night was so beautiful. I felt as if you were letting me know that you really do love me to the moon and back. I took pictures of it and I felt closer to you while I did it. You father was also affected by the moon last night and was glad that I had taken pictures of it. I can't believe it's been 4 years. Sometimes that seems like forever and others it seems like just yesterday. I've learned much over the past 4 years and want you to know that my love for you reflects in how I am choosing to live my life. I will be worthy to be with you again, together with your father we are doing everything we can to insure that the eternities won't be spent the same way as mortality. I can't even imagine not having an end to this torment. Yet I realize that if we don't do everything we possibly can while in this life, that's what we will experience, endless torment! So I am living and trying to do all that Heavenly Father would have me do, so that I have that perfect hope and assurance. I know it's possible and you've shown us the way. I miss you, and my heart still aches, but there is peace in knowing that Families are truly forever if we live up to our covenants! I love you, of coarse you already know that!
August 2, 2007
Hey pretty girl! It's awkward to be away from home right now. It's hard not to be able to visit my girls today. This year I think it's a little bit harder to stay occupied today. I'm not home so I think about the hour of day and everything else. Before I never really did but I think me not being in Utah just hits me about today and that I am not anywhere physically near my girls:( Kaycee, I want you to know that I love you and there's not a day that goes by that I think of you. I keep telling myself that crying won't do me any good, but I still shed a tear or two for my girls...and I always will. The last memory I have of you is you smiling at me. I put my headphones back on after our last stop and you sat next to the other door. I started to get all situated and I looked over at you...all I could here was my music. It seemed like nobody else was in the car but you and I. I smiled at you, not the cheesey, show my teeth smile, but a nice soft smile. Then you smiled back, almost the same way. The way your face looked with that smile was almost heavenly. I fell asleep smiling at you. Inside I didn't want to, but I did. If I ever knew that perfect little moment we had together was going to be our last...I would never have fallen asleep:( I'm so sorry my pretty girl...I should've stayed up, I should've been with you. I love you always Kaycee!!!

Oh Kaycee I can't believe it has been just days short of 4 years already, We are loading the truck and getting ready to go to C.J Strike for the weekend, I know you wish you were here, it seems like only yesterday we were all there catching the big one with your Uncle Steve, pictures are a nice memory of all the good times we shared. I want you know how much I think about you and miss you but knowing you have your Uncle Steve with you makes me feel alittle better and somewhat jealous I am missing him alot right now but I know it's only for a short time before we all meet up again. I have to tell you about your brothers and sisters they have grown up so much you would be so proud to be there big sister, I sure miss having them around but they all seem like they are doing well in there new home. I was reading some of your new entries and it makes me so happy to see how many people still take the time to write. I hope you know how much we love and miss you, big hugs and kisses, give your Uncle Steve a hug from all of us too. Love Tina

My heart goes out to Kaycee's family. Such a beautiful and precious angel ~ I hope she and my angel are friends in Heaven. God bless and keep you in His tender loving care.

Oh my sweet baby girl, how I miss you! today is one of those days that is very tough for me. While I still have living children to care for my heart aches to take care of you also, the pain isn't as bad... yet there is a part of me that yearns for the day that we will be reunited. You were my first baby, and with your birth I became a mother full of hope and joy. It's just not the same without you, and I needed to acknowledge how much I miss you, and that there was something missing today. While you may be very aware of me, how I wish that my eyes could be opened long enough to behold your beautiful face and to be able to tell you that I love you!

I want you, my pretty girl, and Stacie, my angel, and Aubrey, my beloved to take care of each other...and tell my grandma that I love and miss her:)

Hey!! I really miss you a lot Kaycee.. it's been sooo long since I saw you, and every time I think about you I end up wanting to cry..
I hate how everything is now.. I used to say stuff like we would be stuck together for the next six years because you were going to go to Cyprus, and I was really happy whenever I said stuff like that, I wanted to go to high school with you, I know everyone wouldve had so much fun getting to know you and just being around you, I really wish that you were still here with us all..
Happy 17th Birthday Kaycee!
I love you!
December 6, 2006
Happy Birthday my dear sweet daughter!!!! How I miss you. I thought that with time it would get better or easier, but life just isn't what it use to be. There is a sparkle missing. You just had a way of making things better. We will still celebrate your life and what we learned from you. I think that we all struggle in our own ways, but you are not forgotten nor will you ever be. Just know that my thoughts will be about you today. I can't believe that you would be 17. How I wish that you were here begging me to have a party! I miss you...

KayCee, my beautiful KayCee!
It has been so long since I have seen you, too long. I still think about you every day. I find myself wispering to myself in the car everyday on my way home from work, "I love you KayCee, I miss you KayCee" as I pass the cemetary. I miss you and wish with all of my heart that you were still here and yet they are selfish wishes. I know you are happy where you are, but I can['t help but want you here with me. I miss you so very much and and can't wait for the day that I will see you again. I just hope that I will be able to make it to were you are, and having you there to give me a hug and a smile for all of the times that you couldn't. I wish you were here, and help but cry every now and then just thinking of things are so different. I miss you! I miss you so much!!!! I hope to see you again someday.... I love you!

Hey KC I just wanted to say I Miss You and I can't believe it has been 3 years I would give anything just to see your face again and hear you laugh I hope and pray I will again some day well Love Ya and Miss Ya!!
August 8, 2006
kaycee! this last 3 years have been so hard! but i want to tell you i miss you so much! and i want to say thank you because you have made an amazing influence on my life! you mean alot! i miss you! i love you too!
August 8, 2006
I just wanted to take the time to say thanks to all of you that log on here and share your thoughts and feelings, this guestbook has been such a comfort and I feel a way for all of us to share our innermost hurt. It also has been good to know and realize that KayCee is not forgotten. As her mother that's the hardest thing is to think that she will be forgotten, not to us as her family but to others so I thank you for your entries and love.
For those of you that have not heard we have sold our home. It is with mixed emotions that we move. We are excited to be moving and doing what our Heavenly Father would have us do, and for those of you that would doubt please know that it is really what we are suppose to do. I have been blessed by a loving Heavenly Father who has given me time to heal and grieve. Not to say that there still isn't a hole, but the tender mercies and things I have learned help me to not move on, but to move forward. My only concern has been leaving KayCee's body. Part of the reason I started thinking about moving was that I was so upset with the cemetery. I just wanted to move her and not have to deal with the politics of a private corp. telling me what and how to decorate her grave with, but I know that I am not suppose to move her. It came to me one day as I was sitting there thinking and looking at her headstone. We put alot of thought into it and the one thing that stood out was the scripture that we put on her headstone. "Stand ye in Holy places and be not moved until the day of the Lord cometh" I know that she is on Holy ground, dedicated as her final resting place. She will stay there until her resurrection. I leave in peace knowing that my dear friend Sylvia and many of KayCee's friends will go there and trim around her headstone and will also place new flowers there when needed. I know that in my absence her headstone will be taken care of and that it will not be forgotten. I love all of you, and again thank you for loving my daughter and keeping her memory alive in your hearts and minds. She was a blessed girl to have so many wonderful friends and people who cared for her. Please know that we will keep in touch and that our door will always be open to all.
Much Love and appreciation,
KayCees mom

Three extreamely hard years have gone by each day I long to see your loving face. I look to my wall for comfort. It is covered with pictures of you. I miss you so very much. I am so glad that you were a part of my life even though it was torn far shorter then I had wished. I love you so very much and love you more then words can say! You are my star and my angel. I love you!!!

I remember the last time i saw you, Kaycee. you were riding your bike with your little sister near the church. i went to roll down the window to call out your name, but before i could even manage to, i was already too far away for you to hear me. It's been three years now and thinking of that day still gets to me. i remember we were in church when we got the news. It was actually unbelievable. i had to hear it over and over again before i could realize you were actually gone. Cindy and i just burst out into tears. the rest of the day at church we just both sobbed. i then came home cried forever. it's so weird not having you here. watching those old musicals and plays you were in is so hard. skimming through 7th grade pictures i took, and finding many of you in the pile. it just makes it all so different..your death has made me appreciate every second of life that's been given to me. it's still so hard to believe you're gone, but i cant even begin to imagine how hard it must be for your close loved ones. Just know that we love you so much, sweetie, and we miss you to pieces. but it gives me such comfort to know that we'll all be seeing you again soon [:

Hey Kaycee, Gees it doesn't feel like 3 years. It feels like just yesterday when we were doing the silly little tea parties at Shell's house. I miss you so much.
August 5, 2006
It's so hard to believe that it's been three years. Three very long years! I miss you so much and will love you always.

its been 3 years and it still hits me as hard as it did the second i found out, its still hard to even believe that you're gone kaycee, i remember about a month or so after you passed away, i was talking about you to a friend and all i could do was cry, and i couldnt stop, i cried all that night and woke up feeling completely helpless, and now i havent cried since then but tonight, just thinking about you and looking at pictures of you and everything, and reading what people have to say about you, it kills me and makes me so sad to kno that i wont get to see you again at least not for a long time, but i miss you so much and i love you, i would give anything in the world to be able to see you one more time, i know that people talk about you even after they only knew you for a year, but we were at orchard together and i'll never forget all the great times we all had together, i miss those days, i miss you and me talking about anything and everything, i remember after i found out i went and talked to mrs. thomas for hours and everything hit me so hard, its just so hard to be able to handle all of this even after 3 years, everyone tries to help, but nothing works, and now im starting to not make much sense, so i'll finish this up by saying i miss you so much and i love you, you were so amazing, and i really cant wait to see you again someday.

I have been doing so well lately. I didn't think the anniversary would be that bad. I thought that I would be able to handle it alright. I was wrong.
I hate growing up without you, KayCee. I hate knowing that everything I am doing, you should be doing too. I love you so much. Your death has changed my life in so many ways. There are people that I love now more than anything, because that pain formed a bond. Our love for you formed a bond between us. But there are also other people that I can't get close to. People I want to get close to. But i can't, because they will never understand how much you mean to me, and how much it HURTS without you here. I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to share how I feel, and how I hurt with people, but I just can't, because i know it will sound foreign to them, and they just won't get it. I am so glad that when i think that I am totally alone, that i KNOW the Savior is there. ANd that he knows how much it kills me every day of my life to not have you in it. Because He has felt it all. Even though I know you are not truly that far away, and i know that you are exactly where you should be, I still miss you. I love you so much. you are my sister, and I love you to the moon and back.

I LOVE YOU KAYCEE AND MISS YOU MORE AND MORE EVERYDAY!!!!! I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU AS LONG AS I LIVE! I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK!

kaycee. theres always so much i have to say and i just dont know how. i miss you so much and can never understand why any of this happened. i used to believe everything happens for a reason but i can never find a good reason for anything to be happening and so my belief slips more everyday. i'm having such a hard time with your mom moving. its going to be so hard without her here. she helps me out so much and she is so amazing.. i know where you got it from now. hopefully it helps her though. she deserves something good for herself since she's always working to make everybody else's lifes better. its time she thinks about herself for a change. kaycee you are very loved and nobody will ever forget you! we all love you dearly and miss you more than anything!!

Hey Kaycee, how are you doing? Well I remember you at the ward 4th of July Breakfast and you and Michelle were bringing around your toy monkeys and the last time I saw you I gave back your flashlight that Megan and Terry Stole and they gave it to me. The last words you said to me were Thank You!!!!!!!
July 4, 2006
I love you KayCee, it has been so hard with it being almost 3 years. I miss you so very much. You brought so much light to my life with your happiness and energy. I miss you so much. I remember the last time I saw you it was on July 12. That memory sticks in my mind and I am sure that it will forever. I miss you so very much and miss you more and more every day! You and your family are in my prayers. I love you!!! ~Mary Nelson

This is such a difficult time of year. I think of our last 4th together, and how cute you were in getting things ready for the Big BBQ. It was always so much fun. Part of that fun was you and your energy. I loved how you decorated that year, and the lights still hang on the back patio as proof that you hung them there. Something so simple yet we just can't bear to take them down. Yes we have the memories but there are so few things left at home that bear your hand in doing that we choose to leave them there. You had promised to take everything down and put everything away after the party. I have to laugh when I think of it. I wonder what kind of fun we would be having this year if you would of still been alive. What kind of michieve would you have planned? It's so easy to take things forgranted, not realizing all the simple little things that you did for all of us. Most of all I miss the little notes and cards of love. You my sweet daughter always seemed to love and appreciate everything I did for you. It was an easy job being you mom. I miss you more then words can say. I love you to the moon and back, but you know that already. Just felt like acknowledging the feelings that I'm feeling the pain doesn't go away, and there are times like this that it's just so hard.

Kaycee, high school...well, i know that i would be having a lot better time if you were hare with me right now. I am turning 16 in 5 days and i dont think i can do it. You are not here to celebrate my sweet sixteen with me. It make me so sad, yet i am so upset and mad that you are not here to share all this with me!! I think i am more angry and mad than anything right now! What i want more than anything and more than i have ever wanted anything before is for you to be here when i turn 16. I miss you so much and Angel and i were talking about this the ofther day, people think that we are just going to get over all of this and they expect us to just move on, but we cant. It sound easy but it's not and we dont want to move on. Losing you is one of the biggest challanges that i have ever had in my life. In Ether 12:27 it says "...I give unto man weakness that they may be humble...Then will i make weak things become strong unto them." This scripture has had a great impact on me. You being gone is the weakness God has given me, and i know right now that i am not humble and i am not strong but this will make me stronger and my weakness will become my strenght, just like your mom. Your mom is an amazing women, she helps people in ways that she realizes and ways that she doesn't. I know of so many people that she barley knows that she has taken the time away from her family to reach out and help other, oh my goodness it is so amazing!! I love looking at your pictures and i love thinking about every minute of everyday, it makes me want to smile all the time like you always did! It makes me want to make people happy just by saying "hi" in the hall. You give me insperation, i know that you are always with me even though i can't see you!! I can feel that you are with me and i know that no matter how hard school or work of dealing with friends and boys is you are always with me, making sure that i can pull through and giving me faith in knowing that everything is going to be ok and that i am going to see you much sooner than i think i am!! i love you so much and you are always on my mind!! i miss you and wish that you were here to talk about the things i cant talk to anyone but my best friend about!! i love you to the stars and back!!

I miss you so much, words just don't do it any more. Everyone has gone one with their lives. Yet ours will never be the same again. I don't think anyone can even begin to understand. Except Sylvia, she knows the heartache. I got bit by the ants that have made their home around your headstone, it's a small price to pay to make it look clean again. I so love the mowing season, but it gives me a reason to get out there and do something for your memory. I miss you baby, I really do. It feels like it's been forever already. I can't even imagine eternity, I hope I can prove worthy to be with you again. I love You to the moon and back, and it was a beautiful one tonight. I always think of you when there is a BIG moon in the sky. I wonder if you see it also. Oh well, I'm just rambling so I should go. I miss you. Love MOM

I love you KayCee! And miss you more than ever! I am glad that I was able to get to know you! You are such a sweet girl! I love you and miss you more everyday!
March 25, 2006
Ciera you sweet girl, Thanks for still missing KayCee, today was tough with the start of a new season and soo many new girls. The ones that knew KayCee have grown up or most of them are on the High School teams. With the exception of a few special ones remaining. I miss seeing you and Cassie! Hope all is well and Thanks for your love. Someone gave me a special hand sewn pillow today with the comment that KayCee would be at the fields today, it said I Love you to the moon and back. KayCee loved that saying and I think it's just become the saying that means so much to all of us. I hope we can all be filled with that type of love. Much Love Debb, I included my email address so you can stay in touch.

Wow Debbie i really like the pics that you have put in the photo gallary, and you are right KayCee allways lived life to the fullest with a smile on her face. The past 2 years and some odd months have been really hard on me as well as everyone else, i konw it's not just me. KayCee had such a huge inpact on everyday life and no matter how miserable she was she never showed it because making everyone around her happy made her happy. When Uncle Steve died it really made me think of all the good times that we shared as familys and friends. I am striving so so hard to live worthy so that i can see KayCee and Steve again and share even more great times with them!! Debbie I love you so much and i am very greatful that i am able to come over and spend time with you and your family!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!

To all those who have shared your thoughts and feelings, we give this gift to you. We hope that you enjoy the pictures, and that they will help in remembering all the wonderful times we had with KayCee and how great and full of fun she was. We hope to add more in the future but for now just enjoy.
This was taken hours before the accident and is the last photo of her living life to the fullest. She loved pranks and having good clean fun and we can all learn from her example. Live, Laugh, and Love. You never know how long you have.

In her words, " I know the gospel is true." What more was there for her to learn. She knew more than many will in this lifetime.
