Dear Mr. Right

You being from Northern California & me being from Cincinnati, Ohio I believe it was God who brought us together. I had a crush on you the first time I met you, but I was too shy & together you were too old for me until you & Teresa ended your relationship & we had the chance to get to know one another. People do not meet by accident they are meant to cross each others path. Although we were not together forever l will always & forever remember "Our story" knowing it is better to love & lose than to never have loved at all. Remembering the good times keeping them tucked safely in my heart. Like I remember being only ten & you chasing me around a tree at my friend's house. I didnt really know why you were doing this. But I do remember my friend Teresa watching you make a fool out of yourself & embarrassing her. But at the age of 13, my affection for you began to blossom. And at 14 years old my affection became true love! Which in time you grew to become my masterpiece. But in a short time we had to cool it down because Ray's brother was friendly towards me & Ray told him that I was his girl & to respect that. There are many songs that make me get goose bumps & make me think of you every time I hear that song that bring pure joy in my heart & soul. Because I even though you are gone I knew I Love you before we met & always will throughout eternity! And because I will always love you Ray, the fighter in me will always defend your honor & my love for you! Because I will be forever loving you Ray! Because nobody knows but me how much I love you, miss you & wish you were still with me here on this earth! Everyday I know that one sweet day I will see you my sweet Ray. Until then I will think of you on two occasions & that's both day & night! Until then rest in peace my sweet first love Cillus Ray Heaton God bless you forever!!! Amen!

Dear Sweetheart, We were just kids when we met. I was 10 You just 12. It was at sam"s birthday party when you were chasing me xxxaround the tree. We seen each other a few times off & on throughout the next couple of years. It wasnt until I was 13 that I would realize you would be someone special in my life and in my heart. We spent the next 10 years laughing & loving each other. So many pictures one specifically where you are playing like you were biting my shoulder you always made me feel so good inside like you truely loved me. All of your hugs were so genuine and I hold them close to my heart always. All the times we had together are moments I will treasure forever my senior prom was a night I will never forget. You always loved our family camping trips and had so much fun. You were always so loving and passionate. My first love my first everything. I have known you for 32 years & will always love you! I always wanted a family & and to grow old with you. I'm not quite sure what happened or why we parted our separate ways I was left heart broken and not knowing what had happened to our love & friendship. I have often thought of you wondering were you had gone and how you were doing. Several attempts to find you were all unsuccessful? While visiting my family in Ohio this past winter I discovered your death. So many things left unsaid. I just want you to know I will never forget about you & you will always have a special piece of my heart. I wish I could turn back the time to our fun loving teenage years and spend the rest of my life with you. But until then RIP Cillus Ray Heaton. Forever in my heart.... Love Always, Rosemary Victoria Trippel
