Mother's Day / Debbie Wengert (Kevin's Mom )
Mother You filled my days with rainbow lights, fairytales and sweet dream nights, A kiss to wipe away my tears, Gingerbread to ease my fears. You gave the gift of life to me, And then in love, you set me free. I thank you for your tender care, for deep warm hugs and being there. I hope that when you think of me, A part of you, you'll always see.

Some things change, and everything else chages with it. / Uncle Shaner
Do you ever notice how funny life can be, how it makes you smile at the worst of times. How it makes you cry at the best of times. Take for example a wedding, one of the happiest days in one's life. So why is there allways crying at weddings?. Let us not forget funerals, yes lots of crying, but then someone inevidably says "remember when..." and then there is laughter abound.
Well this has somehow happened again, I find myself looking at another sunrise, I look at my phone and notice I have a voicemail, Of course I retreive it, It my Doctor left me a message, (who is in london) I called him because even after the treatment, I had another episode. Seems like the treatment didnt work he said, so he put me back on my meds and up the dose by a half of pill each day. Now I am sitting here watching the sun rise and along comes two squirls, one gray as a ghost and the other black as night, it seemed to me like they were playing tag, one would dart after the other and the other would scurry, then pounce back. this went on for about ten minutes, Here I was thinking of my own life and how much I have left, and here these two squirls are having what seemed to be the time of theirs. Then as though scripted somehow the gray squirl went to pounce on the black one and the black one moved so quickly that the gray one went flying tail over nose off the fince and on the ground, and sat right on its butt, as if to say "what happened", I laughed and laughed, I thought of shawn and you right away and wondered if you guys didnt do that, just to make me smile. I love you and miss you bud Uncle Shaner Close

i will dream of you again / Becky Richards Read >>
i will dream of you again / Becky Richards I Will Dream of You Again
I had a dream the other night I was laying on the beach No one was there beside me Just the water from the sea
As I sat there, I stared up into the sky I thought of you, and then I wondered why? Why did you leave me, you were so young God must have needed an angel, and thought you were the one.
I started to cry And I started to weep I needed you here Cant you see?
All of a sudden, I looked afar Then I saw you I thought "There you are"
You took my hand And off we went Running through the sand I held you close, I missed your scent Please dont leave again.
You told me not to worry You said "I'll try to stay" But then you said "I'm sorry" I have to leave today.
The tears were welling up I couldnt hold them back There was nothing i could do I just cried in front of you.
You held me one last time And told me that you cared. You told me not to cry again "For I will always be there"
Dont think about me being gone Or what you could have done. It wasnt your fault I promise you this The time for me had come.
Just think about the times we shared And all our times of fun. We laughed and cried and fought together. It was alomst like we were one.
My eyes opened up I was in my room. What happened to my night with you? Was it a dream? It couldnt be. Everything seemed so real.
I felt your touch I heard your laugh Whyd you have to go ? That was the best night of my life. I shouldnt have let you go .
It may have been a dream. But one thing that i know You were with me last night I know that it was so.
I may not see you now But we will meet again. When the sun goes down and night arrives I will lay in my bed.
My eyelids will get heavy and slowly start to close. Then just like I said, I will dream of you again. Close

Spring time, isnt so sweet / Uncle Shaner
Well the snow is gone the grass is becomming greener and yet is isnt the happy time of the year it used to be for me. With your first anniversery come and gone and your grandmothers coming ever so closer, it doesnt seem like the time of rebirth it is supposed to be. I find myself looking at my own mortality a little closer now. But some great news has come my way, they think I qualify for a procedure that will help my heart. I dont know how i feel about it yet, I am excited but worried. I want spring to be spring again, but it wont, it will be a time of quite reflection and remmberance. A time to reflect on the memories of the mother I got to know and love in her last days, and the nephew who I loved from the very first day I saw him, and pondered of what a great man he would become. Kevin is soon to graduate and Colo is growing so fast. It seems like it was only yesterday that I was rushed to St. Elizabeths to see your grand entrance. Here it is so many years later, and yet that memory wont leave me. There are so many memories I have to sit and think about to remember and so many that just come to me with no effort, funny huh. You mom is doing good, we watch AI (American Idol) every week and talk to each other about our favorites and of course or not so favorites (will pickler just get PICKED to go home). But its a good way for us to talk and see what each other is doing, her usual reply (Typeing) and mine (not to much just work) so as you can tell we arnt worried about the time on long distance charges lol. I do miss being around the boys and your mom more but hopefully that will change soon. I do miss and love you bud, tell Sean and Chris to stop by and say hi. Oh by the way, we have a black squirl that taunts the dog almost everyday. It reminds me of that Magic squirl deck you made lol. is that Chris or Sean I wonder. I started a night here at the house where once a month a bunch of us from the bear club get together and play magic, the first was last month it was awsome. The next will be in May, I hope your there. Anyway till next time bud. Love Uncle Shaner Close

not like the movies / Tori Welch (cousin)
brandon...its not like in the movies is it? its not like in the movies when the good guy dies and some one screams "noooooooooo" and crys a bit then its done. they dont really include the after shock....they dont show how violent grief can be. they dont show how real the pain is .how you can lose your control and scream . scream and punch and cry....clench your eyes closed so tight....that it seems if you squeeze them tight enough maybe hell be there when you open them....but it dosent happen. how your body gets so tight and it feels like your going to vomit....they dont show that....i dont always feel like this....but sometimes i miss you so much that i do....i wish you were here...

everything unsaid / Tori Welch (cousin)
oh brandon....doday last yeah was just like any other day. it was a friday. so happy to be out of school. went to the movies,then rented a movie at blockbuster. mom kept calling me. she left 7 messages. every time i tried to call her back it was busy. then at about 12:00am. scotts mom called me and told me to go to my moms cuz there was a family emergency. mom told me... that second lasted forever as i felt my self fall backward before mom grabbed me. the tears came before i even registered you were gone. nothings the same...or ever will be. the day after you died it rained. the heavens cried because you had to leave the earth....today it was another rainy day....its very fitting. beandon why did we have to leave off the way we did? why couldnt we hug? why couldnt we say everything? or anteast....anything? please please come to me in my dreams and say everything you never told me...and ill tell you everything i never said...tell me you forgive me and still love me...

And so it has come to pass. / Uncle Shaner Read >>
And so it has come to pass. / Uncle Shaner
So it is a year to the minute, and this day isnt any easier than one year ago. I have learned to except the facts, not the reasons, the moments not the time. It was yesterday to me, Sean and you were in the yard, I was teaching you balance, but it was you who taught me to balance, to be strong even when I didnt think I could, Like now. I wish I was there with your Mom and Brothers, if nothing more than the comfort it would bring. Sometimes I wonder if I was there a year ago, If i stayed a week or so longer. But thats the same as wondering if the tree in the forest makes a sound if no one is there to hear it. love you bud and miss you, take care of your mom and brothers today.
