Live your life / Mom received an email with the following phrase in it and thought of you with that sh** eattin grin smiling down on all of us:
"When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying. "
Thanks Heather!

My life in a song / Soulmate (Wife)
"PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE THIS WAY"
Got a date a week from Friday with the preacher's son Everybody says he's crazy I'll have to see I finally moved to Jackson when the summer came
I won't have to pay that boy to rake my leaves I'm probably going on and on It seems I'm doing more of that these days
[CHORUS 1] I probably wouldn't be this way I probably wouldn't hurt so bad I never pictured every minute without you in it Oh You left so fast Sometimes I see you standing there Sometimes it's like I'm losing touch Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much God gave me a moment's grace 'Cause if I'd never seen your face I probably wouldn't be this way
Mama says that I just shouldn't speak to you Susan says that I should just move on You oughta see the way these people look at me When they see me 'round here talking to this stone Everybody thinks I've lost my mind But I just take it day by day
[CHORUS 2] I probably wouldn't be this way I probably wouldn't hurt so bad I never pictured every minute without you in it Oh You left so fast Sometimes I see you standing there Sometimes I feel an angel's touch Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much God gave me a moment's grace 'Cause if I'd never seen your face I probably wouldn't be this way I Probably wouldn't be this way
Got A Date a week from Friday with a preacher's son Everybody says I'm crazy Guess I'll have to see
I LOVE YOU....You are and always be My best friend , My lover, and always my Soulmate. In life and in death. That, my love, will never change....Kisses and Hugs....
Finally! A dream with you in it! / Mom I've waited for so long for you to appear in my dreams and finally you did! I woke up in the morning with tears on my pillow and my cheeks.
Not tears of sorrow but tears of joy!
I can't remember all the details of my dream but I was in the passenger seat of a truck and you walked up to the window and said "Hey mom where's Kim?" I motioned out the window towards where I thought Kim was and you walked away and didn't come back!
I remember waking up in a panic and tried unsuccessfully to go back to sleep just so I could try to wish you back in my dreams and see you again....
I think of how much you love Kim and it just seemed so appropriate for you to go looking for her, but - I wish you would've stayed a while.
I miss you so much Bud, please don't stay away so long!
never doubt / PATTI I was at the park pushing macy on the swing when I noticed she was looking up into the trees and laughing. when I asked her what was funny she said daddy was tickling her. This week I was pushung her in the swing wondering if you were here. Just at that moment a dragonfly flew next to my right ear and hovered for a few seconds then flew next to Macy - thank -you for reminding me you are always here. I miss u
If I Knew / Mom Kimmie sent this poem to me and it says it ALL!.......
If I knew it would be the last time That I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more
If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time,! I could spare an extra minute to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.
If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day, Well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away.
For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything just right.
There will l always be another day to say "I love you," And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do?"
But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget.
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day,
That you didn! 't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear, Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear
Take time to say "I'm sorry," "Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay." And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
My heart goes out to you all! / Vickie (Passing Stranger ) Well I have never met Tony or any of you, but I stumbled across this site, and it really hit home for me. When I found you I was looking for the lyrics to a song someone told me about in memory of my boyfriend of 14 years, my soulmate-Jason he was killed in a motorcycle accident on 6/17/05 at the young age of 32. While I was reading about Tony he reminded me so much of Jason, the similarities between their personalities is amazing. It really touched my heart to read about Tony I don't mean to intrude, I just felt like I had to offer my condolences to your family, he sounded like a wonderful man, and my heart goes out to all his family and friends, especially Kim!
Kim, I know you don't know me, and I'm not even sure what I want to say here, but I just wanted to reach out and give you a hug and a prayer. Stay strong Kim and know that he will always be watching out for you and the children, just like I know Jason is for me.
I'm not sure if you'll be interested in this, but this is the lyrics I was looking for when I found you, I havent even heard the song yet, but the lyrics are wonderful:
Artist: Alter Bridge
Thanks for all you've done I've missed you for so long I can't believe you're gone You still live in me I feel you in the wind You guide me constantly
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no Cause you were always there for me You were always there waiting And ill come home and I miss your face so Smiling down on me I close my eyes to see
And I know, you're a part of me And it's your song that sets me free I sing it while I feel I can't hold on I sing tonight cause it comforts me
I carry the things that remind me of you In loving memory of The one that was so true Your were as kind as you could be And even though you're gone You still mean the world to me
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no Cause you were always there for me You were always there waiting But now I come home and it's not the same, no It feels empty and alone I can't believe you're gone
I hope I'm not out of line by sending this, I apoligize for the intrusion, it's not something I would typically do, but reading about Tony just broke my heart. And I wish I had some wonderful words of wisdom to help you all through your loss, but I am still searching for that myself.
My heartfelt sympathy to all of you, You have a beautiful angel watching over you!!!
Great Times / Josh Wachter (Friend)

Happy Fathers Day / Mom
Today is a day that you loved to celebrate. You had a special relationship with your dad that not alot of guys have. You became best friends and thats important. You also had so much love for your girls, you were a great dad and although ur girls are too young to remember - we'll keep that memory alive.
Your dad and I and my M & M's went to the cemetary yesterday and before we even parked Macy said "Daddy" 'cause she knows that where you are. The girls left u a Fathers Day card. Mady misses u so much, she hugged and kissed ur stone and didn't want to leave, which broke our hearts.
Your dad and I miss u so much! Live, laugh, love. Mom
