I still think about you everyday. EVERY single day and I STILL wish things could have been better for you.
I knew there would come a day where my heart didn't ache as hard... but it still aches no matter what.
I wanted to just say I love and miss you, as always.
You were and you ARE loved so much.
Love Shanbo

You still were so important and loved... and I miss you and your spunk.

When I walked in your house and your belongings were piled and torn down. That dirt bag sister in law of yours and her scum cousin knew they were messing with your real family. I will never forget the fear in her face when I screamed that you were MY sister! All she could do was look at the floor while her little hinchman cousin tried to defend them. They knew they were pathetic pieces of shit... what hit me hard was your brother though.. your brother didn't fight me. Your brother thanked me for all I did... that was enough for me. He just seems like a broken man now.
It makes me sick they crushed your spirit and took so much from you... I wish I could have changed so much. But what's happened can never be changed. Just a year ago I said goodbye and my life changed forever. God will Judge all those who wronged you Courtnie. Love you and miss you always

Today's my bday, and I woke up thinking about u. Always on my heart. It's been too heart wrenching thinking of writing to u on here. Today though, my heart has no choice but to spill out how much you're missed and just how much I think of u on a daily. we were suppose to meet up, suppose to have our usual Beach Hut Deli date. Of course, I was just too busy working to make our girls date. Every single day of my life that you are gone I will never forgive myself for allowing that day to pass without seeing u. Courtnie, u were always the ray of sunshine I needed on the most unbearable of days. When everyone else looked to me for strength, for a smile to help them get thru their own bs, u were mine without even realizing it. It never failed, when I needed a last minute, save my heiny, save my job hail mary, u had my back. I remember when I called u, needing a girl to work an event in less than 20 mins, you were at a party, had nothing with u, didn't even have a ride. Girl, I swooped u up, brought u a Jean skirt, and a tank, and u rocked my bosses event like a champ, then went right back to ur party without ever thinking twice. I will never forget just how loyal, lovely and oh so genuine that heart of yours was/is. I feel u quite often around, can almost hear ur infectious laugh when I crack my sarcastic jokes. Shoot, I don't need anyone to get my jokes, cuz I got u dying of laughter any given time. HaHa! love u, baby girl. I pray you're singing that beautiful, angelic voice above because it certainly is missed. This bday just isn't quite the same without u... and never will be.

I miss you the most. I don't care what anyone says.. I loved you the most, I miss you the most, I hurt the most... I hate this so much. I want to be able to pick up my guitar and you be singing along with me. I can't pick up my guitar without playing a song we practiced.. one year ago I was with you in that hospital room.. its been a year since all this shit happened...time is cruel. As much as we want it to stop at a certain point, it keeps going... and all is left are memories..
I miss you and think of you everyday.
Love your shanbo

If only you were here I know you would tell me how proud you were of me. You would reassure me everything was going to turn out for the better. I just want you to call my phone again so we could catch up like old times.. I miss you sooooo much! I dreamt of you the other night and it was a gut wrenching, you can't go! type of dream but you were happy and I was a wreck... love you and miss you forever my dear... you were so irreplaceable

Courtnie,
My Aunt Amy was in town from LA this week and when I told her about you she brought back all these great memories from when we were 16/17. She reminded me of going to San Francisco for the day for my 17th birthday, she talked of you belting out Celine Dion on the drive and how heartbreaking it is to hear of your passing. I'm so happy I have such great memories with you tho. I'll cherish them forever you crazy girl. And of course my lol bro will never forget you, ya know, being his first kiss and all. Love ya girl. xoxo.

I sit here and remember the good the bad and the ugly. I will forever miss you and the way you made me laugh. I recently looked at the youtube videos that we made to Together and I know you would laugh and love that we have over 200,000 views. I will always listen to Dolly Parton and think of you, your favorite song Dear Annie,
This is terrible that you are gone, I know that the last few years we fell apart but I would have done anything to help you, guide you. You had a great hand full of friends that LOVED you and will miss you terrible.
Baby ally says "She miss you and she was happy that she at least got to say goodbye to you"
Im So Sorry that I will not be there when they lay you to rest, but please know that if I could I would be there to watch you lay to rest. I love you court.
Forever in our hearts....
Please check out me and courtnie videos... on youtube,, " Dear Penis", "Cheater Cheater"... Just a little view of how amazing and funny she was...if you listen careful you can hear her voice... like a ANGEL!
Love you always,
Tonya Miller

Courtnie, it saddens me to say that we were not as close as we once were, when you were in your darkest of times. You were always such a ferocious spirit, but such a tender soul. I have the craziest of memories with you, from being my baby brothers first kiss, to shoving your head into a strangers car and saying "no I don't know you" while walking in my neighborhood. I wonder if things were different, would we rekindle our friendship in time. You were a powerhouse and a genuinely pure hearted person. I absolutely treasure the time we spent together and I pray that you finally are at peace.

Courtnie,
We had moments of joy as u where my brides maid at my wedding standing up for your brother three years ago. You had a voice of a angel that is one things I always will remember. You where there when my baby girl was born and the smile you had as you became a aunt for the first time. I have the duck you gave Isabella at her baby shower and I'll keep it for her till she's older and I'll tell her of her auntie. We had our disagreements especially about drinking knowing what your mom went Thur and stories I heard from grandpa Mario. I wish we could of found peace with each other but never taught it would end so soon you just turning 25. So young and so talented. When you sang the athem at the boxing match you where a star. You where on America got talent and you made it far and deserved to win with that voice. Everyone judges and people do the best they can. You lost your mommie so young and it left you with a whole you never could fill. I know Mario loved you and your brother wish's you and him could of been in a better place. It shows us what drinking can do even in such a young soul. When you where sober you where the life of the party and everyone wanted to know you. I remember at my baby shower you sang to my belly and Isabella kicked like she was dancing. It made you smile so big. I wish you could be here and be a auntie to Isabella so much of her family is gone. Your mom Gloria and grandpa Mario who Bella just adored and now you. I hope you are at peace with your mom and grandpa. We will be placing you with your grandpa And we will also put your mom with you so you will all be together and don't worry it will not be by your Grandma knowing you didn't care fo her. All these nice things people are saying are true about you. I wish you would of known how loved you where and that maybe could of helped you want to live. I see so many pictures of you smileing and wonder what went wrong. I know it all started with you mom getting sick when you where 13. Who's knows if she lived where you would be today. Many life's are lost and so many are young as you were and it is sad. You lost your life before it really had a chance to start. In the time you did bless this world you impacted who ever you came across from your yearbooks to just the pictures Thur your life. I hope you find peace and I will show my daughter all the good you where. RipCRelei

Dear Courtnie, I wish things could have been differently. I wish I knew how serious it had all become. I made excuses. I kept telling myself you where too young, this couldn't happen, you where just busy. I didn't want to admit to myself that maybe things where spiraling out of control. You needed help. You were always in my prayers, and still are. You have touched so many people, in your short time on earth. We are all in shock, at a loss, full of sadness, and a bit of anger. You where so kind, talented, unique and beautiful. I remember you telling me that you thought Marilee (my daughter) was so much like you as a child. I will never forget that. I will never forget our heart to hearts. I will never forget your voice. Hearing your voice, was like listening to something so surreal and angelic. I am happy you are with your mother and grandfather. I am sure, you are singing your heart out and catching up with them. I will see you again one day, and will give you the biggest hug. I'm thankful for our friendship, love you Courtnie. P.S. your story will be told, written, and remembered by all your loved ones. you are unforgettable. I will keep you where you belong, in my heart.

Courtnie you were a rock star. Live fast die young. You were soooo funny. Your stories were the best. Just so shocking and hilarious. I always admired how real you were no matter what. You were yourself no matter what. You didn't care what people thought of you. Such a rare quality. I loved your voice. I wanted you to share it with everyone. You were so talented. I remember getting a voice message of you singing and it made me smile:) Even though your life was cut short, you made an impact on many lives and through us u will be remembered. I hope you are at peace Courtnie. Find your light and continue to shine. peace and love

Cococrisp, coco nowww, shaqualeen, coco....I carry you with me everywhere. Even though we can't talk anymore I know the moments we would call each other.l; when we were pooping, making food which was my fave. Everyday convo would go something like this "hey twit" then I'd say "hey shwaayy". Then she would be like "what are u doing nowwwww?" Then I'd say "making eggs Benedict with tomato and spinach with some fresh cut fruit" then she would say whhhaaaaatttt?!! That's dumby retarded...koooosshhh...you gonna top that off with some fresh cracked pepper and some cheese?" Anyway that's the just of our everyday conversations. It was so comforting to talk to her and it lightened my mood no matter what. She turned my grown up upside down and I know I did the same for her. I love you girl forever.:(

I just mentioned your name twi weeks ago when Conan Obrien came on the TV. I told my husband how you were so in love with him in middle school that you came to school one day with orange hands, when we asked what it was you replied laughing that silly laugh "well uhh ya see I was watching Conan Obrien on tv and he started putting lotion on, so I went to get lotion to put on as well...but it was tanning lotion" and we all started laughing so hard!!! It was an honor knowing you. Such a beautiful girl, with a beautiful voice, and a craxy personality!!! You will be missed!!

Thank you so much for being a part of my life, thank you for understanding the person I am and being the up most portentous individual, auntie, sister, grandaughter , cousin, and FRIEND. I LOVE YOU.

Dear Courtnie,
I will never forget how funny you were. I will never forget all of your funny voices, which always translated to amazing lyrics that flowed so smoothly when you sang. You impersonation of Shakira “whenever, wherever” was always my favorite. I feel thankful to have known you, and have funny memories with you at the Finnegans. I remember you telling me dynamite came in small packages. I think it’s safe to say that statement was accurate haha. The last time I saw you was at their house, and you were talking about the tour bus you sang on. Which I can’t remember the band now… Maroon 5? I will have to ask Shannon. You were one of those people where when you laughed, everyone laughed. People were drawn to your happiness, and your smile. The world can be a dark place, and people are mean. I know Shannon was your rock. Those Finnegans are very special people. Rest easy pretty girl.

Please watch this inappropriate video... It was Courts all time favorite. I loved it also. We would watch it over & over. Never could get enough poop noodle. Court is the only person who can make me laugh like no other. She loved her power over my ugly laugh too. Life just will never be the same for me. I am very confused right now. I am very angry. I am heart broken. I wish I could do things differently. I have a lot of regrets. I miss you so so much. I'm sorry I wasn't there at the end. I wish the phone tag ended on my end. I love you always

Jim Morrison

This story is by far the craziest yet most awesome thing that has ever happened in my life. On Courtnie's 26th bday I went to visit her grave. I drove my car to pick up my sister and on that drive I hear Jim Morrison's velvet vocals come through the speakers. Ya see, courtnie had a thing for Jim and the doors. I won't go into details but she would seranade me a lot with people are starnge. So.. needless to say... hearing a doors song put me in a good mood.
I arrived at my sisters house and I knew I had to tell her about the song. As we started to drive I explained what I heard, how I felt about it and how much I missed courtnie.. and then... I heard that familiar voice echo through the car speakers again.. yes it was jim morrison and another doors song. My sister and I looked at eachother and started to laugh... coincidence?
OH it gets even weirder... as I drove not even two stop signs down from my sisters house we spotted a wallet and cell phone on the ground at the stop sign. My sister grabbed it and there was a good 800 bucks in the wallet... no.. we did not take the money but planned to return it. So as we are looking for this address.... the cell phone that we found along with the wallet started going off and the caller i.d. had a picture of a woman and she was labeled as "mi fuego"..
Now I am not bilingual so I did not know what that meant but out of curiosity my sister Googled mi fuego and beleive it or not... the first thing that pops up on the search was a picture of Jim Morrison and the video to light my fire..
Call it what you will but I knew courtnie was with me and comforting me that day... the doors, and Jim Morrison was such a hot topic for her and I when we would hang out... I can't explain these events other than it was courtnie...
I played her the doors at her grave and truthfully had a good day and I believe she had a good birthday as well.
poppin wheelies

Courtnie and I would make really weird videos of ourselves doing off the wall things as young teens.. in fact it was me videotaping her doing funny skits and singing haha. There is one funny incident caught on camera where she and I were riding bicycles up at an elementry school from my house and courtnie decided she was gonna try to hop up on a curb with the bike and as she rode slowly towards the curb her words were "I think I gotta pop a wheelie or somthing".. and two seconds later she completely missed the curb and biffed it hard on the ground. Of course all you can here is me trying to catch my breath from laughing and her laughing this big laugh.. needless to say that was our favorite video
