Hey Jordan. I still think about you often. We all miss you down here in Fort Myers. The Holidays just are not the same. Thanksgiving made me think of all the times we used to hide our stuffing in the napkins because we hated it :). I miss you Jo.

LETTER TO MOM FOR MOTHER'S DAY
MOM, PLEASE DON'T FEEL GUILTY
IT WAS JUST MY TIME TO GO
I SEE YOU ARE STILL FEELING SAD
AND THE TEARS JUST SEEM TO FLOW
WE ALL COME TO EARTH FOR OUR LIFETIME
AND FOR SOME IT'S NOT MANY YEARS
I DON'T WANT YOU TO KEEP CRYING
YOU ARE SHEDDING SO MANY TEARS
I HAVEN'T REALLY LEFT YOU
EVEN THOUGH IT MAY SEEM SO
I HAVE JUST GONE TO MY HEAVENLY HOME
AND I'M CLOSER THAN YOU KNOW
JUST BELIEVE THAT WHEN YOU SAY MY NAME
I'M STANDING NEXT TO YOU
I KNOW YOU LONG TO SEE ME
BUT THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO
BUT I'LL STILL SEND YOU MESSAGES
AND HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND
THAT WHEN YOUR TIME COMES TO "CROSS OVER"
I'LL BE THERE TO TAKE YOUR HAND
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOMA
ALL MY LOVE, YOUR ANGEL JORDAN

My Sweet Baby girl. Ilove you Josie so much. I havent been able to write latley , my computer has been down. But Baby , that does not keep me from talking to you each and everyday. It is Valentines Day and your Granney sent one here , the heart lights up and it is so beautiful. I hear that you have lots of Valentines at your resting place as well. As you may know I haven't been driving very much, But Little Luke and I will be home in April honey, we will fly and I will finally get to actually be where you rest once again. I feel you with me sometimes Jo. I still very much wish I had your hand to hold . You always put the visor down in the car on the way to school and played your songs. Precious moments Baby. I still pray to God our Father to let you come and see me while I am sleeping. As your mother , sweet baby, I long to see your smiling eyes, and face. I miss you Bug!!!! Little Luke picked out the softest Teddy Bear for you today. After he loved it for a while he placed it on your bed. Josie, Happy Valentines Day Baby! I really need to know - Do you hear me baby? I will continue to pray. I will pray for all of us that love you - what a long list.
I send the most purest love- a mothers love- to you in heaven(God will see that you get it Bug) as well as my other children(your siblings, And a precious Brianna). I carry you in my heart always . I treasure each and every memory. It seems like yesterday. In Gods time I will see you again . I hope that dream will soon come true. I continue to picture you in Gods Graces in HEAVEN. I think that 1 second in Heaven is Forever on earth. So maybe you are so good there that you havent even missed us yet Bug. I guess God kinda takes care of those things.Can You send some Angel wings for me? I carry you ALWAYS AND FOREVER IN MY HEART!!!!!!!!!! Love Mommy

A DOZEN ROSES FOR MY ANGEL VALENTINE
IF I HAD A DOZEN ROSES I KNOW JUST WHAT I'D DO,I'D GIVE EACH ONE A NAME THAT REMINDS ME OF YOU. THE FIRST ROSE I'D NAME "SUNSHINE" CAUSE YOU BRIGHTEN EVERYDAY. THE SECOND WOULD BE "BEAUTY" THE KIND THAT NEVER GOES AWAY.THE THIRD ONE WOULD BE "PRICELESS" LIKE THOSE HUGS YOU GAVE TO ME. I'D NAME THE FOURTH ROSE "SILLY", OH HOW FUNNY YOU COULD BE.ROSE FIVE OFCOURSE IS "PATIENCE", SOMETHING YOU HAVE HELPED ME FIND.THE SIXTH ROSE I'D CALL "MEMORIES" THE PRECIOUS GIFT YOU LEFT BEHIND.THE SEVENTH AND THE EIGHT ROSES WOULD FOR SURE BE "FAITH" AND "GRACE". NINE WOULD BE "UNIQUE" BECAUSE NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE YOUR PLACE.THE TENTH ROSE WELL THAT'S EASY, I'D SIMPLY NAME IT "LOVE". ELEVEN I'D CALL "ANGEL" CAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE WATCHING FROM ABOVE. I'D THINK ABOUT THAT TWELTH ROSE AND I'D REALLY TAKE MY TIME, AFTER ALL THESE ROSES ARE FOR YOU MY VALENTINE, I'M SENDING THEM TO HEAVEN IN EVERY COLOR THAT I KNOW. SO NUMBER TWELVE I'LL NAME "FOREVER" BECAUSE THAT'S HOW LONG I'LL LOVE YOU BABY. HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY AND I LOVE YOU BIGGER THAN THE SKY MY ANGEL. ALL MY LOVE FOREVER AND ALWAYS AND I'LL SEE YOU SOON BABY. YOU KNOW SINCE MY MIRACLE PRAYER CAN'T COME TRUE FOR YOU TO COME HOME TO ME , YOU KNOW BEFORE LONG I'LL COME HOME TO YOU. I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO MUCH BABY. YOUR GARNNEY

My Dearest Jordan,
I know it'a been a long time since I have written to you. Please forgive me? I still think about you everyday, see your sweet face and hear your cheerful laughter. Just like it was yesterday. Oh, Jordan Life is so hard here since you went away. Everyone is falling apart. No one talks anymore. We don't see each other anymore. I miss Brittney and Amy so much. Please pray for all of us Jo. Help us to get through tommorrow. Please watch over Granny and your Mom and Dad. tristan still says a prayer for you every morning at school. His teacher Miss Robinson tells me. He really is special. My heart stays so heavy Jo. I'm broken inside, and I'll never be the same. I love you so much and I'm so so sorry. I miss you Jordan. Until we meet again sweet baby girl...
Hugs and Kisses,

IN THE LONELY CEMETARY I WAS SADLY PLACING FLOWERES, AND FELT THE URGE TO PRAY.AS I KNELT BESIDE HER RESTING PLACE, I FELT A COOL BREEZE BLOW. THE SKY LIT UP WITH ANGELS, WHAT COMFORT IT DID BRING. A VOICE BROKE THROUGH THE SILENCE. IT BROUGHT ABOUT RELEASE. MY ANGEL BABY SPOKE TO ME. MY SOUL WAS FILLED WITH PEACE. HER WORDS WERE SWEET AS HONEY. SHE SAID "I DIDN'T DIE, FOR NOW I LIVE WITH JESUS. SO, GRANNEY PLEASE DON'T CRY.
MY BABY LIVES IN HEAVEN, OF THAT I CAN BE SURE, FOR TODAY SHE WALKS WITH JESUS.
HE'S TAKING CARE OF HER. I LOVE YOU BIGGER THAN THE SKY MY ANGEL BABY, ALL MY LOVE, GRANNEY

Dear GOD is this just one more mountain I have to climb, or is it my last. I'm not so sure I can finish climbing this one, but that is just between you and I. I couldn't say that to anyone else. I have tears in my eyes and tears in my HEART. Looking back I've had so much and I am so Thankful, and it is Thanksgiving but I'm so sad. I miss my Angel Baby JO JO and I worry so about AMY LYNN.
GOD is this a mountain I'm not suppose to climb. Are you going to give me the strength and courage I need to reach the top. I've Lived, I've Loved, I,ve laughed and I've cried.I feel I have so much more to do with my girls and my babies and I love them so much. I am so Thankful for everyone in my life and I wish I could do something to help everyone and make sure they are safe and happy. Angel Baby Girl, stay close to us this Thanksgiving and everyday and GOD help me climb this mountain.

Hey Jo Jo, It's big Luke. We are missing you so much. We love you and just wish you could still be here with us. We know your beautiful spirit is here but just wish we could see you again. Your Mom and Little Luke are ok except for missing you. We know you are ok in heaven but if you can, please try to visit your Mom sometime someway to comfort her. It's cold now and we have built our first fire this year on the patio. We sat by the fire and talked to you and about you. We know you loved those days and so did we. Duke is doing good just getting bigger and missing you to. Love you little girl!!! Forever!! Keep an eye on things from up there!! Until we see you again.

My Dear Sweet Baby Jo, Hey Bug It's mommy. Iknow I havent' written in along time. I just got my computer was just hooked up today. Ilove and miss you and still pray everyday for God to let you come and see me when I am sleeping. I had hoped it would have been your birthday or mine. I guess it will happen in His time. Your Birthday was very hard, I was ever so sad to not be able to be with the others at your resting place. I hear its beautiful. I carry you in my heart and I cry for you Bug. On the days that are somewhat ok I Know that you held me and wrapped your angel wings around me while I was sleeping. I still can't believe that I cant hold you again for a long time. I pray for God to comfort my heart, as well as everyone else who loves you baby. Look down on me from time to time Josie Girl. I am still framing pictures for you room. It will be painted next week.If only I could lay in there with you and watch movies again. God you have my baby, kiss her sweet face for me. Please let her come see me. Tell her I am the saddest, and as you know there are no words on earth to express this ache, but I know that she is with you and we will see her again someday. I love you sweet baby Jo. I carry you in my heavy heart. Mommy

Hey Jo,
It still doesnt seem real to me that you are gone. When I went to visit you last week and seen all the nice things that Dad and the family has done for you it finally hit me that you are. I know you are in a much better place. I miss and love you so so much.
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Hey Jo, it's Trey. I was just thinking about you today. I still can not believe that you are really gone. I keep thinking that when your family comes down to visit that I will get to see you, but in reality I wont. We all know you are in a better place, even though we wish you were still here with us. We all miss you.
Love you Jordan

Dearest Jo JO,
Hey sweet girl. It's Sissy again. Just wanted to send you a little note today to let you know I was thinking about you as I do everyday. A really close friend of mine, you may remember Christina, sent me an e-mail that I would like to share with you, so here goes....
WHO ARE YOU, LORD?
WHILE PRAYING ONE DAY A GIRL ASKED, WHO ARE YOU, LORD?
HE ANSWERED, "I AM" "BUT WHO IS I AM?" SHE SAID. AND HE REPLIED.... "I AM LOVE, I AM PEACE, I AM GRACE, I AM WAY, TRUTH, AND THE LIGHT...I AM STRENGTH, I AM SAFETY, I AM SHELTER, I AM POWER, I AM THE CREATOR, I AM THE BEGINNING AND THE END, I AM THE MOST HIGH." THE GIRL WITH TEARS IN HER EYES, LOOKED TOWARD HEAVEN AND SAID, NOW I UNDERSTAND. BUT LORD, WHO AM I? THEN GOD TENDERLY WIPED THE TEARS HER EYES AND WHISPERED, "YOU ARE MINE."
I LOVE YOU JORDAN.
Forever and Always...
Love, Sissy

Hey Jo,
It's sissy again. I'm at work today. Not having a very good day. I miss you terribly. Sometimes it's so hard to stay occupied and keep my mind on everyday life down here. I wish so bad I could turn back time. That night that I saw you at grannys, one week before you left us, I can't remember if I gave you a hug and a kiss bye and told you that I LOVE YOU! I know that you know how much I do Love you, but my heart is just so heavy sometimes. I know that I didn't say it enough, that I didn't spend enough time with you once you became a teenager.
I keep telling myself, If I had only, I wish I had of, or I should have, or I wish I could....BUT I DIDN'T AND I CAN'T!!!! And I am so sorry. If I could go back to that night, I would hold on to you and never let you go. It was Fate that I was at grannys that night you know. It was the last time I got to see you. I will never forget what you were wearing and how happy you were, how beautiful you looked. I miss you Jo. When will I feel better????? Until I see you again....
I Love you with all my heart and soul.
Love,
SISSY

Hey JO JO,
It's Sissy. Just thinking of you. Yesterday was Aug. 8th. One month before your 17th birthday. I worked yesterday. It was a long day. A man that I work with lost his only son just last week in a car accident. He was eighteen. Maybe you've met him already. I'm not sure what his name is, but look out for him. He's new to HEAVEN. I miss you so much Jo. I listened to your CD and looked at your pictures all the way home from work, and I just cried outloud. Thats about all the time that I ever get to be alone and let out my feelings. I spoke to your mom on my way home as well. She's not doing very well without you Jo. She is all alone everyday now with little Luke in school. Big Luke works in Knoxville TN. now, so she only sees him on the weekends. Nancy comes to visit her sometimes. I wish I could be with her now. She is still waiting for you to come home from school and walk around the corner. Its hard for her because she can't visit your resting place everyday like we can, because she is so far away and that hurts her so terribly bad. Please be with her Jo and watch out for her and granny and your Dad. Look out for Amy too Jo, she needs you. I love you with all my heart and soul, and I miss you so much. If I had only Known.....
Love always, Sissy

Dear Jordan,
This is a poem that found its way to my heart today thinking about you and family.
Moments
It pains me, to think of all the stories lost, the love missed, and memories forgotten,
of the lives of gentle people, whose views of the world have done violence to the peaceful bliss, of ignorance.
Some wish to know from whence we came, and to where we go, as spirits, beings,
grains of sand, or as water evaporating beyond, beyond.
How many souls have wandered the far unknown appreciating the moment,
the moments past and onto what future?
To hold those loved, again, to hold cherished the family of our own, or of humanities,
just to hold and love, if only again.
For those moment of love, it pains me, not merely the loss, but the abundance of overwhelming joy of life.
Yet, it pains me, that ultimately, clearly all life as we know it, will die.
So for the moment, rejoice; that we live .............................................................................................................................................................

Dearest Jordan,
Hey Baby Girl, It's Sissy. I'm at work today thinking of you as I do more and more each and every passing day. Yesterday was 4 months since you left us. Me and the boys spent the day with Granny. She misses you so Jordan. We took you some real pretty flowers on Tuesday. Your monument is so beautiful with your picture. It's wonderful to be able to go there now and see YOU, instead of just your name. But I know in my heart that you are not really there anyway, your spirit lives through me and all of us that love and miss you. I wish I could see you in my dreams Jo Jo, instead I look at your pretty pictures each day, and say Goodnight to you everynight. I keep you by my bed. Jake carries your picture and says Jo JO all the time. Tristan talks of you everyday and prays for you everynight. He never forgets. You are the first one he prays for.
Well, I love you Jordan, and miss you so. Take care in Heaven.
Until my work here is thru....
Love Forever,
SISSY

To The Welsh Family,
Three months ago a special piece to a terrific family was called away. My little girl is cousins with Brianna and every time I get to see her, I see the in loving memory symbol of Jordan on her daddy's car. And I always get a since of saddness of what shouldn't of been, having to remind myself to remember that in Gods eyes it was his ultimate plan. It is a very sad thing to grasp or even learn how to try to cope with what has happened. I didn't know Jordan, but I know what a special family she comes from, so I hope you take your saddness and turn into happiness for Jordan's spirit will be with you all everyday,In Loving memory and prayer and your special family bond. May God be with you all.

Dear Tonya,
I wish I had some magic words to say to you, something profound and wise, but I don't. I Love You, my heart is broken for you and you are in my thoughts all the time. I know your precious baby is in heaven, an angel, with soft white wings, and that is comforting, but I know, not enough. You are so strong and brave and I know the days are not easy for you, but you are a survivor. I wish I could wrap you in a hug right now and just let you know that my heart is with you, as are so many others. I hope to see you soon, the world and life keep us at a distance, but I carry you with me and pray for you every day!
All my love,
Terri

My sweet,sweet, Baby Bug,
I can't begin to tell you or anyone else how very much I miss you every second of everyday. Time has passed and with that my hurt and tears are more than ever. I know that you are in heaven and I pray still to see you if only in a dream. I know that God will someday answer that prayer, but for know , I still ask why. My heart aches for you so. I close my eyes everyday and talk to you and pretend I have you in my arms. I carry you in my heart Josie Girl. I think ever so fondly with a mothers love about every smile you ever smiled, and every tear you ever cried. If I wasn't there someone who loved you was there to catch them as they fell. I am such a selfish mommy Jo, I want you so bad. I heard a church that a second in heaven is like a thousand years for us that are left behind. I am hoping so much that ,that is so, and you are doing what God needed you so badley for. He doesn't make mistakes, only we do. I am coming home soon to see your headstone honey. Put in a good word for me up there honey. We all love and miss you. I know that you are with the angels, so, for mom- could you ask them to wrap there wings around me until I see your precious face. I carry you....Forever Love, Mommy

We are so incredibly sorry for the loss of your precious daughter. We can't even begin to understand what you guys are going through. Hopefully with time, you will get a sense of peace in knowing your daughter is in a place where there is no pain...no heartache...she is only be surrounded by love and prayers from everyone who loved and adored her. Still, this is a tragic accident and I wish somehow that I could say something that could help take away the pain it has brought. Just know that we are sending our love and prayers and we never stop thinking of you all. We love and miss you...

HEY MY ANGEL BABY, I VISITED YOU LAST NIGHT ON MY WAY HOME FROM SISSEY'S. YESTERDAY WAS 3 MONTHS SINCE GOD CALLED YOU HOME. I DON'T EVEN THINK OF TIME WHEN I THINK OF YOU BECAUSE I DON'T THINK OF YOU AS BEING SO FAR AWAY, AALL I KNOW IS HOW MUCH I MISS YOU. I LISTENED TO YOUR SONGS ON THE WAY HOME AND SO MANY OF THEM SAY SO MUCH. BABY IT IS LIKE I WEAR A HEAVY COAT OF HURT ON THE OUTSIDE AND THE HURT INSIDE IS EATING ME ALIVE. I TRY SO HARD EVERYDAY BECAUSE I HAVE THESE OTHER BABIES TO LOVE AND I KNOW THEY LOVE GRANNEY. BABY DORIS BROUGHT YOU SOME OF THE PRETTIEST RED ROSES SUNDAY, THE COLOR IS CALLED LIP STICK AND LAST NIGHT I WATERED THEM AND THEY STILL LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL. I ALWAYS WATER ALL THE FLOWERS. YOUR PLACE LOOKS SO PRETTY. ANYWAY BABY, GRANNEY DIDN'T SLEEP ALL NIGHT I HAVE SO MUCH ON MY MIND AND I AM SO TIRED ALL THE TIME BUT I KNOW ONE DAY I WILL HAVE PEACE OF MIND AGAIN AND THEN I WILL REST. I THINK ABOUT THE DAYS I WOULD BRING YOU YOUR TURKEY SUB AT YOUR LITTLE LAKEWOOD PARK SCHOOL AND JUST ME AND YOU WOULD SIT OUTSIDE AT THE PICNIC TABLES AND THEN WHEN YOU GREW UP YOU WOULD CALL FOR GRANNEY TO BRING YOUR FOOD TO YOUR HIGH SCHOOL AND I NEVER MINDED USING MY WHOLE LUNCH HOUR JUST TO KNOW YOU HAD WHAT YOU WANTED FOR LUNCH, AND ON THE WAY TO SCHOOL EVERY TIME YOU SPENT THE NIGHT GRANNEY WOULD STOP YOU AT THE STORE FOR YOUR FAVORITE BREAKFAST SANDWICH. I'M SO GLAD WE MADE SO MANY MEMORIES BABY AND I THANK GOD WE HAD YOU FOR THOSE SIXTEEN YEARS. BUT IF WE HAD ONLY KNOWN YOU COULDN'T STAY LONGER HERE WITH US WE ALL WOULD HAVE SPENT ONE MORE DAY, ONE MORE NIGHT, ONE MORE HOUR OR EVEN ONE MORE MINUTE WITH YOU. WELL I BETTER GO FOR NOW MY BABY, BABY JACOB NEEDS MY ATTENTION. I MISS YOU SO MUCH AND I LOVE YOU BIGGER THAN THE SKY. DON'T FORGET TO WAIT FOR ME AT THE GATE AND DON'T BE LATE BABY. ALL MY LOVE ALWAYS AND FOREVER, YOUR GRANNEY.

Hey JoJo, It's Sissy. Just sitting here at work and thinking about you. It's been 3 months ago today that you left us to be with GOD. I miss you so so much Jordan. Please watch over Granny and your Mom and Dad. They really need you, and miss you so much. It's been very sad here on earth without you and your beautiful smile to brighten our days. It rained alot last week, but now its sunny and hot. The rainy days were very gloomy and sad, but still even with the sun, it's so hard to be here without you. Doris brought you some real pretty roses yesterday. I think they are called Lipstick roses. I know you love them.
Well Baby, Kiss all the babies and puppies and tell Granny and big papa how much we love them. Stay close to them, they will take good care of you. Keep your sunglasses on, the rainbows must be pretty magnificent and bright up there.
Until my life here is thru.....
You're forever in my heart and soul!
Love always,

THE PAIN NEVER GOES AWAY AND AS HARD AS I TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHY GOD CALLS SOME OF HIS LITTLE CHILDREN HOME I STILL DON'T. YOU WERE MY BABY AND JUST SUCH A PART OF MY LIFE FOR SIXTEEN YEARS AND I DON'T HARDLY KNOW HOW TO BE HERE WITHOUT YOU BABY. I GUESS THATS WHY WRITING TO YOU AND TALKING TO YOU AND LISTENING TO YOUR LAST MESSAGE YOU LEFT ME OVER AND OVER AGAIN HELPS. I ALSO, LIKE YOUR MOM, SISSY AND SO MANY OTHERS CARRY YOU WITH US EVERYWHERE WE GO, NOT JUST YOUR PICTURE BUT IN OUR HEARTS. I WROTE TO NATHAN THIS MORNING BABY AND SENT HIM ANOTHER PICTURE OF YOU AND DUKE. HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH STILL BABY AND WISHES HE WAS WITH YOU THAT DAY AND MAYBE YOU WOULD STILL BE HERE WITH US. WE ALL HAVE WISHES THAT WE SHOULD HAVE OR COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING THAT WOULD HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE. WELL BABY I MISS YOU MORE THAN I CAN EVER EXPRESS AND I LOVE YOU BIGGER THAN THE SKY.

Hey Baby Girl, It's sissy. I know it has been a while since my last entry, but Jo Jo, it is getting harder with each day that passes. I thought my heart would feel a little better now, but it still aches for you. I guess maybe its because there are still so many unanswered questions. I still ask GOD "WHY" everyday. I keep your beautiful picture by my bed and talk to you every night. You are in my car as well, with me every where I go. I miss you so much Jo, and I'm so sorry that I wasn't there for you more than I was. I know you were busy being a teenager and I being a mommy, but I should've tried harder to spend time with you. If only I could have one more day with you. Look out for your mom Jo Jo. She really needs you. We love you so much.
Until my work here is thru.....

Hi Jo Jo, it's big Luke. Just missing you. We had our family reunion yesterday which you were at last year at the cabin on the lake in Cave Springs. Charles said the prayer as always before we had lunch and he included you and J.D. in the prayer saying how much we all miss you and J.D. I am sure you were there with us because it was a beautiful day with a constant breeze and butterflies that just kept coming to us all day. Little Luke played in the lake all day and had a great time. He misses you a lot and talks about you all the time as we all do.
Love you and miss you so much. We will all be together again.
Love,

I am trying to be there for your mom the best I can. It is getting more difficult for her now that the phone doesn't ring as often. I am hoping you will come to her in a dream soon and give her some comfort. Tom comes to her quite often and when she shares her dream with me I feel a sense of peace. I love your mom as though she is my sister. I love you Jo and I miss your beautiful voice. I too hear your soul whisper in the soft breeze. You have been whispering to us quite often these past few days. Someday all of us will know the blissfulness we call heaven. Until we join you, you will stay in our hearts.

My sweet baby girl. Yesterday was mothers day and the hardest thing I have ever had to do. I know in my heart that you are with God, But even though two months have passed I am still ever so desprate to have you here with me. I have not been able to send any mothers day cards yet baby,not even to my own mother. I have them here for Granny, Cindy, Sissy, Britt,and others. Even though I have Lukey with me it was not the same just knowing that you were in heaven and not here. I will continue to pray for you to come and see me Josie Girl. I am so lost without you. They say it will get better but I just don't know. I don't think there are any words to explain the feelings I have inside. I will continue to carry you in my heart bug. I will love and miss you always sweet baby girl. I want to hold you so bad. Your daddy gave me your big Winnie the Pooh and I sleep in your room with him every night. We watch the same movie that you had in your vcr when you left- Sweet Home Alabama. Sometimes I can swear that you are with me. I want to say sweet dreams to you my angel Ilove and miss you. I want you back. Some sweet day we will be together. I am waiting for you to come see me. with everything I have inside me, I love you. I am sorry about yesterday Bug, I just couldn't write. You and God Know that I talked to you all day long.Angel Wings wrap around you tight sweet baby girl.I love you. Mommy

HEY SWEET GIRL, IT'S SISSY. JUST SITTING HERE THINKING ABOUT YOU. IT'S BEEN TWO MONTHS AGO TODAY THAT YOU WERE TAKEN FROM US TO BE WITH GOD. I MISS YOU SO MUCH JO.
TRISTAN GRADUATED FROM PRESCHOOL TONIGHT. HE WAS A PIRATE IN HIS SCHOOL PROGRAM, AND THEY SANG SONGS AND MADE A BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW. AT THE END, HE GOT A REAL NICE BIBLE. HE'LL BE STARTING KINDERGARTEN THIS YEAR. HE'S REALLY GROWING. GRANNY CARRIED JAKE TO THE CAR TONIGHT AND SHE WAS SHOWING HIM THE SKY AND ALL THE STARS, AS WE DID WITH YOU SO MANY TIMES WHEN YOU WERE LITTLE. HE LOOKED UP, AND GRANNY SAID, "IF YOU LOOK REAL GOOD, YOU CAN SEE THE BRIGHTEST ONE" AND WHEN HE DID, HE POINTED AND SAID"JO JO". I ALWAYS TELL HIM THAT YOU ARE THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN HEAVEN.
MOTHERS DAY IS IN A COUPLE OF DAYS, AND I KNOW IT WILL BE VERY SAD FOR ALL OF US. BUT YOU ARE STILL OUR PRETTY BABY. KEEP SMILING DOWN ON US JO AND WATCH OVER US. I SURE DO WISH YOU COULD COME HOME, IF ONLY FOR ONE DAY, ONE MORE TIME, ONE MORE SUNSET MAYBE I'D BE SATISFIED, BUT THEN AGAIN I KNOW IT WOULD LEAVE ME WISHING STILL FOR ONE MORE DAY WITH YOU.
ME AND THE BOYS WENT TO SEE YOU TODAY. WE WATERED YOUR FLOWERS. YOUR LITTLE ROSE BUSH HAD TWO PRETTY BLOOMS ON IT. TRISTAN ALWAYS TRYS TO FIND A STICK TO WRITE YOU A NOTE IN THE DIRT, OR DRAW YOU A HEART. HE REALLY MISSES YOU. HE TALKS ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY AND WE PRAY FOR YOU EVRY NIGHT.
WELL SWEET GIRL, I'M GONNA GO FOR NOW. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH JO. KEEP WATCHING OVER ALL OF US, AND KEEP THE BREEZE A BLOWIN.

HI Jo JO,
It's Big Luke. I miss you so much and I know that you are ok but it is just not right that you are not here. I was in Atlanta today and while I was in the crazy traffic, I was in your moms car and your picture is in the sun visor. I pulled it down to shade the sun light and there was your beautiful smiling face in a picture your mom has on the visor. My heart is broken, your moms heart is broken, every one in the family and friends that know you, their hearts are broken broken as well. Little Luke woke up yesterday morning smiling from ear to ear and said guest what Mom and Dad Jo Jo, Big Papa and Me Ma Pat came to visit me in my dreams and they all had something to say. Jo Jo said to tell Mom that she loved her and that she was fine, Big Papa said he loved you and Me Ma Pat said that she loved Dad. They all said that they will come to visit us in our dreams. This was a special gift and we so much love you all and thank you for giving us a rainbow of love through Little Luke. He was so happy when he woke up it was unbelievable. We live for the moment that you can come again and visit.
I visited a good friend today in Atlanta. It was Claudia that was with us on the project in New Jersey. She sends her love to all and wishes you were still here with us.
God Bless all of Gods angels which you have now joined.
Love you forever Jo Jo. see you soon.

Hey Pookie,
I miss you sweet baby girl, Today is Sunday the hardest day of the week for me. well I guess everyday is a hard day but mostly Sunday's because thats the day you had to go be with God. I think about you every minute of everyday and I miss your laugh so much, your bright smile and just the sound of your voice. I call your cell phone just to hear you talk sometimes. I left a letter for you at your resting place and I write you in my journal as much as I can. Jordan, baby I wish you could just come home to us all. I know that you are in a better place but We all want you back here with us. Kayla told me the other day that she almost started crying at recess and I asked her why and she said because she misses her jojo. It broke my heart to hear her say that, we all miss you so much that its hard to go through a day much less weeks and months. I know we will never be the same again pook, losing you has brought us all so much closer, I talk to your mom just about everyday and to sissy a couple of times a week. Your mom misses you dearly as does your dad, I'm watching over him down here you watch over him from up there ok? I love you and miss you to no end Jordan. Until we see each other again be happy and laugh often baby girl.
All my Love,
Cindy

Dear JoJo, It's mommy. I think I have missed you more today than ever. I don't know why. Maybe it's because mothers day is coming soon. Maybe it's because of all the cardials out here with the doves, and how this time last year we were out filling up the deer feeders. Sunny days do hurt the most, I think. Not quite sure. I want you to know that I love and miss you sometimes so much that I do not know what to do baby girl.I try to find comfort in knowing that you are in heaven, and so happy that you would never even want to come back. Baby,my heart aches ,even if that is selfish. Many, many , moons from now I will see you. Until then I carry you, sweet girl, in my heart everyday. For you are my baby. God Blessed me with Brittney, Amy,You, and Lukie. My children. So many people love you honey. I am so lost without you. My mothers day will never be the the same but I will find a way for Lukey, Ames, and Britt, to celebrate 15 mothers Days that I had you,as hard as it may be. God will help. I just know it. He left me with hope and love for your sisters, and brothers. Don't forget your other mom, Cindy,and Big Luke. I want to thank your Dad for making me your mom and giving me you as well as Brittney, Amy,now we have Austin, Kayla,Brianna ,David , Corbin,and Little Luke. I love you sweet baby girl. I can't wait for you to tell me about all the great things youv'e been doing up there. I love you my bug!!!!

WELL BABY, GRANNEY WILL NEVER GET THAT NEW HOUSE BUT ONE DAY SOON WE WILL LIVE TOGATHER FOREVER AND NEVER BE SEPERATED AGAIN. UNTIL THEN BABY YOU STAY CLOSE TO GOD I KNOW HE IS TAKING GOOD CARE OF YOU. BABY, KATHY CAME OVER AND PLANTED SUNFLOWERS FOR US. SHE KNOWS HOW MUCH WE LOVE THEM. HOW SWEET THAT WAS. BABY I WOULD GIVE MY LIFE JUST TO SEE YOU ONE MORE TIME, I JUST WANT TO HOLD YOU AND ROCK YOU AGAIN. BABY, PAP PASSED AWAY YESTERDAY BUT I GUESS YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT. YOU AND HIM CAN PLANT A GARDEN AND GO FISHING. I KNOW YOU ARE WITH GREAT GRANNEY AND BIG PAPA AND GRANNEY HATTIE. WHAT A BLESSING THAT IS TO KNOW. I THINK I WILL PUT YOUR DOLL COLLECTION OUT IN YOUR BEDROOM THIS SUMMER BABY. HOW ABOUT THAT. WELL, I LOVE YOU BIGGER THAN THE SKY BABY AND I'LL BE THERE SOON.

Dearest Jordan,
Hi sweet angel, It's Sissy. I was just thinking about you and missing you very much, as I do everyday. It has been very hard for all of us here on earth without you. I'm reading a book right now that tells me that when you get to heaven, everything is so perfect, and that you don't miss anyone because you don't even realize that we are not there with you. How glad I am to know that you are in such a perfect place now with no pain, no confusion, and no sense of loss. I would hate it if you thought you were all alone and missing us. My heart is so heavy jo. I'm so worried about Granny and your mom and Luke. I don't know what to do. You and GOD keep an eye on them.
Well, me and the boys will be by to see you again today. You still have so many pretty flowers. I miss you Jo, and I'm so so sorry. If only I could hug you one more time, I would never let you go. Every time I close my eyes, I can see your smiling face. I know that you are ok now, but why did you have to go through something so terrible first? It's not fair. It shouldn't have happened to you. You should've had another chance at life. We weren't ready to let you go yet, and were still not ready.
Until my work here is thru......
With Love, Hugs and Kisses
Sissy

WELL BABY, WALK SLOWLY DOWN THAT LONG PATH CAUSE SOON I'LL FOLLOW YOU. I WANT TO KNOW EACH STEP YOU TAKE. ONE DAY SOON BABY DOWN THAT LONG ROAD YOU'LL HEAR ME CALL YOUR NAME.

Hey Jo Jo, it's big luke again. I have been talking a lot to you lately. It's 2:45 in the morning and I have been sitting in the swing with Duke looking at your window that you use to wave at me and smile so big. I am so sorry that we had to move to New Jersey and you had to leave this hill. I think that if we did not do that you might still be with us. Me and your MOM have really screwed up emotions at the moment. We hurt, we get mad, we blame when we should not. We really don't know what to do. I know for sure that I will see you really soon. I hate to leave everyone but I don't have a lot of choice unless things change soon. Please don't let me down and be there when I need you.
Love you Jo Jo,
Big Luke

Jordan,
Hello, it's your old babysitter. I know you don't remember me because you were still so small, but I used to babysit for you and your sisters at your grandparents, Gay and Eddie's house.
I was about the age you were when God called you home that I had the pleasure of spending time with you and your sisters.
I know things seem like there is no answer or understanding as to why this has happened, but God's plan was set for you long before we were blessed with you in our lives.
He has a plan for all His children and in time, the plan will be understood.
You were a chosen one by Him to go to Him at this time, You blessed us with your love, but He has greater plans for you in his Heaven.
You see, as I have read these entries from all you have Loved, the one true way show the Love that you have for them is to watch over them during their own path back to Him and now you. The greatest gift someone can give is being their Angel, and now you are able to fulfill this need.
In time, God's plan for you will be understood by you and by all whom you loved.
God Bless You and the life you now shall have!!!
Mommy

Hey sweet baby girl. I love and miss you so much. Please tell the good Lord to pray for us all. This has become all to real. More than our hearts can bear.

I continue to pray for your sisters and brothers, Daddy, Cindy, Luke and myself, Granny, Pappa, Grandma, Grampy, Sissy, Buba and the kids, as well as Kim, Scott, Big Amy, and their families.

I know you'll look after your wonderful family, and I'll do my best from this side.
Nikki was already waiting and I hope you two are getting the party started! Wait for me! I look forward to meeting you again one day.

Hey Pook,
I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you, I miss you so much. I pray everyday that you will come to us in our dreams. I still cannot accept the fact that you are gone. I walk around in a daze like I'm not really me and I'm watching my life go by from the outside. I know that you are in a better place, but I would give anything and I mean anything to have you back here with us. You are the light in all our lives with your bright smile and now everything seems dark and grey. I wish I could have told you one more time how much I love you and need you. You will always be in my heart and on my mind. You take care of all the little angels in heaven until they are reunited with thier families. until we meet again pook, be happy and laugh often.
Love always,
Cindy

Please know how much Ricky & I miss you, we started missing you a couple of years ago. Thats when it seems like you really started growing up, and tring to find yourself. I miss all the nights you use to stay with me when Ricky was at the fire-department. I know you would really enjoy staying with me now,(with # 2 on the way)!!

Tonya, Big Luke and Little Luke,
We are all very sorry and have no words to express how sad we feel. We feel very honored and fortunate that we got to meet Jordan (jojo). That summer that we spent with her and you guys was by far the best summer that we've ever had. You are family to us and you are the first people we met when we got to Texas.
We can only imagine your pain because we have never been through this and it hurts that you are hurting. We all remember Jordan's big smile and for sure we know that we will see her again. Hang in there, she can see you and feel you and she wants you to be OK. We love you all and if there is anything that we can do just let us know. You are in our prayers.

HEY BABY, IT'S GRANNEY AGAIN. I HAVE TO WRITE BECAUSE YOU ARE ON MY MIND AND I CAN'T WORK. I ONLY SLEPT ABOUT 4 HOURS AGAIN LAST NIGHT. ANYWAY I PRAY FOR SOME PEACE OF MIND TO COME TO ME. I KNOW GOD IS GREAT BUT LIFE'S NOT ALWAYS GOOD AND WHEN I PRAY THINGS DON'T ALWAYS TURN OUT LIKE I THINK THEY SHOULD, BUT I PRAY ANYWAY. BABY, I KNOW GOD HAD A PLAN FOR YOU AND JESSIE EVEN BEFORE YOU WERE BORN AND HE KNEW HOW LONG YOU WERE GOING TO BE HERE WITH US BEFORE HE TOOK YOU HOME WITH HIM AND YOU AND JESSIE JUST HAPPENED TO BE TOGATHER AT THAT TIME BUT IT SURE ISN'T EASY. I DON'T KNOW IF I WILL LIVE TO SEE THE DAY OR COME WITH THE TERMS I HAVE TO GO ON WITHOUT YOU HERE ANYMORE. ALL OF US TALK ABOUT YOU AND TO YOU EVERYDAY BUT NOTHING I DO SEEMS TO HELP. LIKE I SAID, I PRAY TO GOD FOR SOME PEACE OF MIND.I'M LIKE SISSEY AND YOUR MOM AND DAD AND SO MANY OTHERS, ONLY IF. I THINK I KNEW MORE ABOUT YOU AND HOW YOU FELT ABOUT EVERYONE IN YOUR LIFE THAN ANYONE ELSE, WE TALKED SO MUCH ABOUT OUR LIVES. I THOUGHT ABOUT THE SONG I WOULD ROCK YOU TO SLEEP BY EVERYNIGHT. FROM THE TIME YOU WERE BORN AND A LOT EVEN THROUGH THE YEARS YOU WOULD STILL SIT IN MY LAP AND PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND ME AND SAY ROCK ME GRANNEY. I WOULD ALWAYS SING AWAY IN A MANGER INSTEAD OF A LULABY. ONE OF THE VERSES SAYS AND TAKE US TO HEAVEN TO LIVE WITH YOU THERE. WELL BABY, YOU ARE THERE JUST WITHOUT ME BUT I WILL BE THERE ONE DAY SOON. WAIT FOR ME AT HEAVENS GATE AND DON'T BE LATE OK. WELL, I MISS YOU MORE THAN LIFE AND I LOVE YOU BIGGER THAN THE SKY. LOVE YOU, GRANNEY

My sweet baby girl. Mysweet girl with the biggest blue eyes that I have ever seen.(except for Gramppys). I am really feeling the pain. I love and miss you so much. I went to see Dr. Slack, your guidence counsoler at Rome High School today. She along with many others cried , for they did not Know that you had left us. They said that you were a breath of fresh air. God in heaven knows how I wish you were still here. Everyone that you touched and left behind misses you bug. Someday we will know why. But as your mommy all I can do is put my faith in God and pray for the day that I see your Angel face again. I carry you in my heart baby girl. I am so broken, and I know every one else is to. I am worried about your daddy honey, please talk to him . Talk to me baby girl when we sleep. JoJo , I don't quite know what to do. My heart carrys a pain that I can only imagine how Jesus felt carring the cross that He was crucified on. He rose from the grave and now he has you. God love you sweet baby. I am still a selfish mama that wants her little girl. I miss you more than words can say. I want more time with you baby. While you are up there , Please ask God to comfort our hearts untill we hold you again. By the way, do you hear me talking to you everyday sweetie? I always do. Sometimes I think I feel you bug. I want more. ILOVE YOU

My Dearest Jordan,
They say that memories are Golden,
Well, That may be true
But, We never wanted memories
We only wanted YOU!
If tears could build a stairway
and heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to HEAVEN
and bring you home again.
Our family chain is broken
and nothing seems the same
but, as GOD calls us one by one
the chain will link again.
Till then......
I love you Jo, and miss you so much more and more with each passing day.
IF I HAD ONLY KNOWN......

Hi Jo Jo, its big Luke again. It's kinda late 2:30 in the morning earth time and I just could not sleep. I have you on my mind all the time. I just wanted to tell you that I built a fire at the barn for you tonight in that old antique heater and boy was it beautiful and warm. Just like the old days when you were here. It was just me, your Mom and Little Luke and of course Big Duke. We just hung out and listened to your music. I am going to do something special for you in the barn. You know that whole wall over where the antique heater is? Well it is going to be a special tribute to you and I am going to do it all by myself. You are going to love it. It will be the coolist thing ever.
We will visit you there and you can visit us there because it will be so special. We have lots of doves here on the hill now and I am waiting on the white one to show up. Sleep tight sweet heart and I am going to bed now and dream of your new life. By the way, your papa (Hammer)loves you and misses you big time. He has a little squirle that now comes up and eats out of his hands for the first time ever. Guess what, he named her Jo Jo. Angels wings wrapped around you tight. Sleep well beautiful girl. Until next time, Love Big Luke

hey, jo jo,
it's aunt barbara again. i wasn't sure if i could still talk to you tonight. i just took a chance. i was reading all the notes everyone has written to you. all i can think of is how special you are to have so many people take the time to make an entry in your memory book. God, it seems as though it were yesterday that i was at the hospital with your mom & dad when you were born. your mom had a tough time. i thought the doctor would never get there. anyway, baby girl there are so many memories of you that i will never forget. your uncle drew couldn't write, but he sends his love & also has so many fond memories of you.says you were always as beautiful as your mother. jordan, even though "Heaven" is a much better place than earth and we all know you are at peace, we all miss you soooo much. promise to be the angel you are and watch over everyone that loves you dearly. especially your mom,luke,granny,papa,your dad,cindy,sissy,your sisters & brothers and of course me. good night baby angel girl & until we meet again, take care, be sweet & remember how much all of us down here love & miss you.
