You're cheering like crazy up there, I know it. I love you. I miss you like crazy. <3
This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Lacey, 28, born on January 1, 1985 and passed away on November 12, 2013. Sister and treasured friend, godmother and aunt, Lacey was one of a kind. She will be forever remembered.
May you find peace. Love you always, Lissy.
Please feel free to leave any special memories, pictures, and thoughts you might have of your times with her. You may also use this site to say goodbye.
E.T.A. (11/2014): The Paint photos (in the pictures gallery) were created by Lacey herself, self-portraits of sorts.

Happy birthday!
I may not have posted on this remembering page for a while, but you have never once left my thoughts. I see you and think of you constantly - you're in Matty Max's smiles and laughs, you're in every Leafs and Raptors win. You're right next to me when I need to be brave and strong, and you're holding me when I cry. I love you.
I miss you more than ever. Everyone has been super supportive it is getting easier. I may even close your Twitter account, I'm not sure. I really wish you were here.
I love you. I miss you. Happy 34th <3
The Argos won the Grey Cup this year. Leafs are 2nd in the division. Raptors are also kicking ass. Toronto sports are thriving, just like you always dreamed.
Everything is nothing without you.
I love you, dearest.
I miss you more and more everyday. Some of your online friends have contacted me, and they miss you, too. Especially one from Toronto; I don't know who he is exactly (he wants to stay anonymous), but he writes really well and from what you've told me, I have an idea. You were blessed to meet such great people.
I miss you. Alina was telling me that she hasn't been the same since you've passed, that losing you just makes her ache with sadness that is there but masked. I know what she means; it's how I am. A constant pain. You'd be the first to tell us that life goes on. We're trying, I'm trying.
I just miss you. Love you, xoxxxox.
They're winning for you, love. <3
Smile... :)
i love you, liss. three years :'(
ring the bells that can still ring.
forget your perfect offering.
there is a crack in everything.
that's how the light gets in.
- leonard cohen, rip :(
I don't know how much better it gets, or how long it takes. I don't know how to get through it. Minute by minute, then hour by hour, then day by day. Friends are comfort. Life is for the living, you and I know that.
I'm trying, Lissy. Some days are easier than others, but I'm trying. I love you. And I miss you so goddamn much.
It's getting easier - I keep telling myself that. I'm just fooling myself, really. There's a big hole in my soul and I'm trying and failing to mend it. I never thought we'd ever be apart and it's finally sinking in that I'll never hear you laugh or feel your hugs or just be in your presence. I hate it; every day I wish you were here.
But I know you're somewhere better, somewhere where you're not hurting or suffering. I can't fault you for that. I know you're looking after me, and I will always miss you. I'm still keeping you close, I don't think I'll ever be able to let you go completely.
I love you, Lissy. <3
Only tears speak from my heart.
We shall be forever bound...
And I shall not walk alone.
I wonder what you'd say if I told you I cry each day.
It's hard enough to be so far away.
I wish I wasn't cold. I wish I wasn't alone.
But the party is over. How will I move on?
All you need to know is that I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry. I love you. I miss you so desperately.
I miss you. I thought it'd get easier. It's not, everyday I think of you and wish you were here. It's so hard to live without you.
I can't do it, Liss. It's been almost two years, and still it feels like yesterday I held your dead body in my arms, How do I move on? How do I survive? I can't bring myself to do anything. Even baby Matty Lace, he's getting older and I'm not there. How do I go back to him? I don't know how. It's like I've died with you, but my body remains alive.
Oh Lissy, I need you. I need your help. Please. You know what to do, you always do. Help me. Please. i love you.
but I always thought you'd come back to me...It's hard for me to say.
I'm jealous of the way you're happy without me.
I miss you. :'(
I am not living without you. I am not living. You aren't here and I am essentially dead.
How do I survive? I need your help. I need you. Because right now, I'm all alone and I'm ceasing to be.
Please Lissy, I need you. i need you.
i know i haven't been around in a long time, but I'm always thinking about you and I knew you were always out there,
Now it just feels empty. Realizing you're really gone.
I miss you.
I miss you.
God, I miss you.
I miss you. :'(
I miss you. :'(
Remember all the words I said. When you went through the valley, the shadow fell down in front of you. Morning never came to be, and you stayed still.
I've forgotten the way to go, and lost where I came from. I know you're standing beside me. Know that I'm with you.
I miss you so desperately, and will love you for all eternity.
Spend my days locked in a haze, trying to forget you, babe,
I fall back down.
I gotta stay high all my life, to forget I'm missing you.
I miss you so much, Lacey. I love you.
I miss you. 29 won't be the same without you here, just like 28 wasn't and 30+ won't be. Every day is hard without you, and it's just getting more difficult. I constantly listen to the tape you made me and read your letters and diary, just to hear your voice and feel you near. It's a constant heartache.
I love you.
I wish I was there for you more. I wish I had more time with you.
I wish I was a better friend for you.
I should've been a better friend.
I'm sorry. So sorry.
I miss you.
I've been reading your diary/tweets, trying to feel you close again. Been adding some onto your life page.
It's not the same as you here, I miss your sense of humour and fun times.
I miss you so much. Be in peace, Lace.
You're the one that I love,
and I'm saying goodbye.
Say something, I'm giving up on you,
and I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you,
and anywhere I would have followed you.
Love you, Lacey, I miss you.
I love you, Lacey, can't wait to meet again.
I don't know how to survive without you. You are my person. The other half of my soul. My right hand. Everyone tells me that I need to move on. They don't understand. You made me brave, you made me strong. You gave me life. Yin and yang, that's what we are, what we were.
I need you alive. Because how am I supposed to be without you? I feel empty, a shell of skin and bones, no soul or spirit, no liveliness. I'm not Morgan, not Mellie, not anything without you. I need you.
I miss you so much. You don't even visit me anymore. Your clothes have started to lose your scent, your things feel like things that aren't yours. I've tried to find you again, but you're gone. You've left me.
I'm not ready to let you go, I don't know if I ever will be. I love you, Lissy, I love you. I miss you so much.
I am broken without you.
Dad said I could talk to you here. I miss you. scouts isn't as much fun without you. I miss our drives and hotchocolate surprise. and camping! No one wants to go camping with me.
We had to write about our hero in school. I wrote about you. you were so cool and fun and silly. I miss that, we always have lots of fun together. i hope you miss me too. Aunt mellie red the essay when she came over. it made her cry and smile and cry. I think she misses you too.
I have to go. Mom wants me to do my homework. I just wanted to say hi. and tell you I miss you. and love you. I know your better now. I just wish I was there with you.
your boy, Max
p.s. Chrissie and Jo miss you too
p.p.s. I miss you most.
p.p.p.s lots of hugs and kisses
I love you. I miss you.
I miss you. I think of the what could have been, and I know we would have been very happy together. The time we had together wasn't enough, yet that short time is so precious. You changed my life, defining it. Enriching it. Enlightening it.
You taught me to be strong, and to always go forward. This past year has been one of the most difficult years of my life. I think I'm ready now, to move forward. I'll always love you. Always and forever.
It's been very difficult not having you around. I can't let you go, no matter how much people say I should. I don't know how to. I miss you.
It's so hard to breathe without you, I miss you so much.
the best that they dare state, the things that I can’t say.
I’ll always burn a light for you, of the constant kind,
of the constant kind.
I miss you desperately.
I'll always burn with your love for me, my friend, constant love.
Mellie's struggling without you. I don't know how to help her. Could really use your help.
Love you, L.
Miss you with all my heart.

Lacey was pretty great. Even if she was fucked up.
Fuck.
I miss her. I love her.
There are so many stories of Lacey I could tell, I don't know where I'd start. She was funny, she was smart, she was daring as all heck. Lace got into the craziest adventures. She was just so much fun.
Lace had a heart of gold. She liked to keep it hidden with sass and bitchy behaviour. I'll say it, Lace could be a bitch. She was tough as nails and she'd put sailors to shame. She was the girl you'd want on your side in a fight, She was really sweet, though, she would give you the shirt off her back if you needed it. Nudity was not something Lace shied away from; she was the sluttiest person I had ever met.
My favourite memory of Lacey is actually pretty recent. Whenever Lacey was with Morgan's baby, she was so happy. She glowed. I was visiting Morgan and Lacey a couple months ago, and the baby was asleep. We were just talking and catching up. The baby woke up, sweet soft cries as babies do. Lacey rushed to get him, which was a testament to her strength, as she had trouble walking then, she was weak and using a cane, but she hurried to get him, to soothe him. Lace was so gentle with him, she glowed with love.
Lacey was battling cancer with a weak heart. She never gave up the fight, even though you could see the pain she was in. She loved the baby, she loved her friends. Lacey loved life. She taught me not to take life for granted, to enjoy every minute.
Lacey's last words to me were very smple and straightforward. She told me to take everyday as if it were my last, and to love freely and enormously. I treasure her words; even when going through so much, Lacey was thinking of others. I love you, Lacey, and I miss you so much. Thank you for changing my life. Love you. <3
I was in love with her. She had told me many times not to fall in love with her, but I couldn't help it. She was the best person to come into my life, and I didn't want to let her go.
When I first proposed to her, Lace told me to shut up. It was just like her, and though she turned me down, I loved her even more for it. I knew the reasons why she said no, and I accepted it. But I loved her and didn't want to let her go. She was love.
Unfortunately, her heart couldn't contain all the love she had. The phone call that wrecked my world came, and now I have to say goodbye.
I love you, Lacey. I'll never forget you. Until we meet again. I love you. Always.
