Hey Daina, I was thinking about you the other day. Finally got around to cleaning out my desk (talk about a lot of junk) and found the beautiful stained glass angel that you gave to me so long ago. The angel had a little heart that said "Remember & Believe".

You always managed to make me smile. The memories of our talks over lattes or diet cokes and teriyaki still bring smiles (and a few tears).

Your smile lit up a room. Your laugh was like bells ringing.

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.

You will never be forgotten!
K

Hi there my beauty, I know it's been awhile, No excuse,just a little lazy. We did go to CA. in April,came back in May.Had a good time, spent 8 days in Alameda, then off to Reno,went to Utah to visit some old friends, had a great time. Then in June we took off for ND, Spent about 4 days with your uncle Mike on the farm, had a great time, Then we went down to Jamestown ND, for my 50th class reunion and spent time with my brothers before we headed back this way. It was beautiful weather all the way around. Will stop for now, I just needed to talk to you. I love you and miss you every day of the year. Grandma Cuffe

Hi Daina. I was just telling someone at work about you and I got to missing you very much. I was in Mexico during the one year date of you leaving us, but I was with everyone in spirit. I had a shot of tequilia in your memory! We miss you so much. Uncle Vaughn visits you all the time, bringing you flowers and cleaning up your headstone. Thanksgiving is 2 weeks away and I so wish you were going to be with us. The holidays and life will never be the same. We love you.

Hi love,
There is not a single day that goes by that I don't think about you.
I love you so much Daina that's why I call you my boo.
My dreams of you are so vivid it scares me because I never want to wake up.
When I do wake up- my life feels drained because I know it's not the same!
I wanted to let you know that this unconditional love for you will never die
because from the depths of my heart- we will never fall apart.
When you read this, save it like you did with our first conversation.
Next year honey, it will be our reincarnation.
Eternally yours - A.J.

Hey Daina Cuffe;) I have not been sleeping much again,it was like this when you first left us and now again. Well as you well know your sister is now 16 and we went to dinner at the outback. Dad, Paige Dejah, brother Amanda and me; we missed you there. I would do anything to have you back here, some days are better then others however you are always on my mind. thinking of all the things we did do together that were so very special-as well as the rough times. I just needed to write again, not that you don't know you are always on my mind. I love you and we all miss you so much!!!

My Dearest Daina, I've been thinking a lot about you today, of course that isn't anything new about that. Granpa and I have been talking about you today, mostly of about how much we miss having you overto chat with and that didn't happen often enough. Our days are just the same as always, both retired now, so we do have a lot of time on our hands. Just want to say we love you and miss you so much. Love Gramma

Hi Honey, Christmas was just not the same without you,we miss you so much I cannot even put into words. We came to see you on Christmas Eve, cleaned up all the ugly stuff and I arranged all the still good and new flowers and things. Your dad spent alot of alone time yesterday and then go figure AJ stopped down to have a drink next thing I know dad is helping AJ to Dejah's bed to sleep. So it would appear that they had a bit to much. Please know that you are so very loved and missed everday minute of every day! I love you

My beautiful Daina, It's almost christmas, just a couple of more days. It is so difficlt for me to be happy this year. I just can't seem to get going, I miss you so much. I did get some cookies baked, I'll be taking some out to your Dad's house. I know you will be with us in spirit. I sit up here on the computer every day and read all these entries, you were so loved by so many different people, you made them laugh, with your beautiful smile, something we all will not forget. And there was always you saying to me{when I did something stupid} "Gramma you are in so much trouble" I just wish I could here you tell me that again. I Love and miss you. Love always Gramma

We remember such a vibrant little girl who had such energy to light up any room.
And I recognized a girl who turned into such a beautiful young woman who waited on my table at Red Robin a couple years ago. I had gone back a couple more times so you could meet my husband but, you weren't working that day. We recognized each other even though we hadn't seen each other in a decade or more. I look forward to the day we will meet again and we will recognize each other again.
Please look after your family that misses you so much. Please Let them know you are happy and that you will always be with them in heart.
To your family that is left behind - Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Hi honey, just needed to drop you a few lines now that we have our powere back.....4th day without I remember the last time you and Curtis Jr came over since we have the generator and could keep warm and play game and watch movies. Christmas is right around the corner and can you believe that we have not bought even one present yet....so not like me but without you here it is so hard to celebrate the holidays. I hope you will be here with us on Christmas (you know what I mean by that)any sign to show you are here will make the day a bit easier. If you can hear what I say and have been talking about and to who I need to know so I can do everything possible to make sure all is right for you and the family! I love you. Dad, Paige and I miss you so much and are just trying to make through the days one at a time-not to mention all the rest of the family. Please come to me in my dreams and talk to me. I know you do to Dad but I need it to.
Again I love and miss you so much and wish you were here!

My darling grandaughter how I miss you, it's been alittle over a month ago that we lost you,such a lonely one. I was remembering the last time I talked to you, which was a couple of days before granpa and I went on vacation, how we taiked of doing more things together when I got home, and I never had a chance to experience shopping with my adult grandaughter, what a loss I fell when I think of this. And you bought me a pair of sqush slippers, we got such a laugh you said "I just don't know what to buy you."I told you know matter whatyou did I would love it because it was from you. I love you my Daina Marie and miss you more every day. Gramma Cuffe

I miss you, Daina, and I think of you constantly. Saturday I was driving across Lake Washington, coming home from work. It was sunset and the sky was so beautiful and I felt your presence so strongly that I cried, as I have so many times since you left us. I pray you are at peace and I hope that those of us who miss you so badly, especially your Dad, Jr. and Kelly will find peace as well. Your uncle Vaughn and I love you and miss you and think of you every day.

I was thinking of Daina today while I was preparing to teach a class at Seattle Central CC - where I met her. I had asked her permission to keep a project she'd completed in class to use as an example of a "great job" for future classes. Just re-reading her paper, made me smile & laugh a little; which is how I'll always remember her.

Daina had a great ability to cheer me up...her smile, her laugh, the funny jokes by email. She always seemed to sense whenever I was having a rough day (as I'd recently lost my husband) when we first met in class. For someone so young, she had a wisdom beyond her years, helping me to remember to forget the rough times & focus instead on the good times.

Daina, I know you miss your family & they miss you tremendously. Be at peace & there will be a time when all of us whose lives you touched in such a short time will see you again.

Good Morning,
It snowed last night so bad that we are being told not to go anywhere due the roads being so bad. Last night I tried to have Curtis Jr. & Amanda over for dinner, I called cause they were late and it reminded me of waiting on you every week, but it turned out the snow and the stupid drivers prevented them from coming.....You must have heard me ask you to let your dad know that you are okay - we talked when I came home from work yesterday and he said that you were in his dream and that he kissed you on both cheeks and you let him know that you were okay and that it all happened so quick.
We miss you so much and wish you were here everyday, nothing is the same without you and it never will be. Love you always and forever!!!!

Paige Cuffe

November 27, 2006

hey daina, its me
its snowing, it reminds me of you
i remember when me you brother and dad used to go into rods yard and have a snow ball fight it would be you and brother vs me and dad... and we tried to have family dinner night. but brother didnt come.
i miss you i know that you can see me and i know that you are looking after me and the things that i do.. its hard when i cant come to you and tell you my problems face to face and not through this thing. but i write here anyways.
i put your pictures on my wall a lot of them i pray at night that you will give me a sign or something that tells me that you are okay...
but i love you sis
and your always in my heart
love always and forever your sis

Hi honey it's me again,Dad AJ brother,Amanda,Paige, Dajah and me came to visit you before we went to uncle Vaughn and Lori's for Thanksgiving.....It just was not the same without you there you were so missed and dad is lost without you. Please let him know that you are oksy and that he can move on when he is ready, or maybe you can push him a bit....we love and miss you so much the pain that we feel is un explainable. I want you back so much! But that is really selfish since I really do know that you are in a better place and do not feel all the pain that you were in here, it is just that you left us all in so much pain and the heartache is something that we will never get over, I talk to you everyday and hope that you hear what I say. If only we could of done something to change what happened, I know that both your dad and I would. Keep watching over us. Oh by thr way Britney is 6 months pregnant- but I am sure you already know that.
I love you and you have Always been my daughter and nothing wil ever change that!!!!

Daina... Grandma, Lori and I were missing you tonight, and I see Grandma couldn't help but write right after she got home from Uncle Vaughn's house after dinner. Girl, the family aches so much for you. Your Dad, OH MY GOD your Dad, I, I just tried to make him smile and laugh tonight. He did, but it was short lived. Daina we love and miss you so much, Ravyn has your picture up on her headboard and she prays to you and cries at night. We will never understand why Daina, and in that itself we will never EVER fully heal. We are a strong family, we have strong blood, but your absence is tremendous, it's too much still, and will be for a long time. We will ache for you for years to come. I'm so worried about your Dad, watch over him beautiful angel. We all love and miss you so damn much. Thousands of tears still flow for you honey. Our first holiday without you was very sad. I love you cuz...

Daina I miss you so much girl. I wish you were here. We have talked in a minute, but I wish we had. I still remember when I moved here back in 6th grade we hated eachother, but then once we let our guards down there was nothing but love. All those times when we'd skip school and go down to the marina. I can still hear your laugh and see that beautiful smile wit your crazy self. You were so beautiful not only physically but mentally. Those who have known you for a while know that you truly were an amazing girl. I pray for you every night and may your soul rest in peace. You are dearly missed I love you Daina Marie Cuffe RIP

I didn't know Daina, but her obituary was in the Seattle Times when I was glancing through it. My son Jacob was born on April 20, 1985 (a day before Daina). As I read the obituary, I cried and felt the pain you feel. My son is alive and has his life ahead, yet when he was a newborn baby he was as Children's Hospital dying of starvation. They didn't know what was wrong and finally a specialist diagnosed and helped him. I am thankful for the last 21 years he has been in my life and also reminded of how unpredictable our futures can be. I ache for the family and wanted you to know Daina's life has touched mine as I have been reminded to "stop and smell the roses". Truly, I will highly charish each day in the future I have with my son and not take a moment as unimportant. May God's peace surround you and as He stands by your side I hope you feel His love as you go through this hard time.

I love you Daina I never told you that and I never told you how much you mean to me but you do... alot. We had our moments. We fought but hey what sister's dont? I told on you... but thats me for you. I never really hung out with you becasue I was too young. I always wanted to, with you and brother but again i was too young... I just wanted to tell you that I love you with all of my heart and that I always will and when my time comes... will you hang out with me? I LOVE YOU SIS!

Some one very near and dear to me once told me that we are born into this world with one intention to build our home with God. So every breath we take, every action we make is all a mastered plan from God. So with his guidance we hammer the wood and build the foundation, put up the windows and doors...without even knowing it and when our houses are completed then we are asked by God to join him in our dream house to live with him forever... Daina you were loved and will be missed.

I know you are an angel up there looking upon on all of us coming to us in our dreams at night to let us know that you are in a better place and feel no pain.
You are forever in my heart and I love you so...

My memories of Diana are not as many as I wish I could have had, but enough to remember how sweet and beautiful and funny she was. She could always put a smile on my face and I am grateful to have known such a sweet soul. I'd like to think that her heart was just to big to stay long in this world, her dreams to large.. her soul to restless... but that she was sent to us to remind us of beauty and love and laughter. She carried with her these things and shared them with all who knew her. I feel so blessed to have been given such a rare gift to have know a person such as her.
My heart goes out to all those that are in pain with her passing. I know that there is little that I can do or say. I pray that you find the comfort you seek.

Curtis you make Amanda so happy and in that you always make us so happy too. We love you both and we will be here for you both. I tried to post the penny poem here for you and all your family Curtis but somehow they won't let it post here. But you know the Penny Poem Curtis and you know what it meant to us this last year when we lost 2 family members. Share it with all those who loved Daina, it really helps to get you through when you find those pennies.
God Bless all of Daina's loved ones
we are so empathetic for your loss.
With Sympathy, Charles and Mary Anne Bodah (Amanda's Parents)

Daina and I went to school since we were kids. She always had a positive attitude, and was very outgoing. Never would you find her being negative or rude to anybody. She is in a much better place now, but it is sad she had to leave her family behind. God Bless all the family and friends and you will all be in my Thoughts and prayers. Love Joshua Wills

I have several memories of Daina. One of my favorites was our freshmen year. We spun around outside in the pouring rain in our high school quad. We were absolutely drenched, but she was smiling and laughing. I cannot imagine her any other way, then looking down on everyone and smiling. My prayers go out to her family during this difficult time
