We are so happy to have had the pleasure of having Candice as a neighbor and knowing her. Every time I saw her she had a smile on her face and always said hello and asked how we were doing. She loved holding our little baby James and always offered to watch him if we ever needed. We will miss you Candice you were such a caring and sweet girl. Your whole family is in our hearts and prayers.

We were together since six years old. We had lots of fun growing up. You gave me confidence and motivation that no one else could. You could understand where I was coming from like no one else could, or cared to. I know your walking in heaven now and I cant wait to walk with you. I love you.

Zach & I are so sorry for your loss. I pray that your faith will guide you through this difficult time. I know Candace has her Angels wings because she difinately was an Angel here on earth!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I had the honor of transporting Candace from home to dialysis often when working for Medcorp. She was such a bright spot in everyones day, no matter how she was feeling she always had a huge smile, and as tough as our job could be sometimes, she ALWAYS managed to make us smile. To her family, words just arent enough right now. God is with you; Im so sorry.

You have one of the sweetest souls I ever met. Our loss is heaven's gain.
Everyone remains in my prayers,
