Tears If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again.No farewell words were spoken no time to say goodbye you were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why. My heart still aches in sadness and secret tears still flow what it meant to lose you, no one will ever know.

When this came across my facebook page first thing came to mind was that sweet smile of yours....I cried when you passed away. I still cry today. Although I loved you dearly, I couldn't make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke my heart to prove to me he only takes the best.

Shai, I miss you much more than anyone knows. We werent so close the last few years, but at one point we were, thats what matters. I see so many precious souls leaving us in this world lately, I'm starting to wonder what kind of party you got going on up there <3, I know you are being you, being strong and holding on. Watching over us all. Grief is harder than expected.. I love you <3

Not that long ago, you and your mom spent many days swimming at our pool with all the kids.....You were a lovely, polite young lady then and an even more beautiful young woman today. I only wish I could freeze those moments a little bit longer.......

Shai lived like so many of us only wish we could, to the beat of your own drum down the path less traveled by. The first time I met her she toddled up and demanded "Where is your mamma" even at 2 she was something else and that never changed!

It's so sad to think that she's actually gone. I thought it was all a joke. I know we weren't best of friends, she still graced my life with so many smiles. I know that she will be looking over PHS class of 2012, and all the other PHS students. It's

Shai, one year you and your mom were the only people to give me a birthday gift. A bag of wishing stones and incense. After all these years, I still have it. What a sweet sweet young lady you are. I'll never forget you!!!

I remember one time in class me and my boyfriend had just broke up. I was talking to her about it and started to tear up. She refused to let me cry in front of the class. She grabbed my arm and made me follow her to the bathroom where we sat until the bell rang talking. She was special. I miss her

I just realized that no one posted about the generous gift you left the world. Shai Lane was an organ donor and through her gifts. She gave the ultimate gift.. Life back to some, more time with their family, hope, their dreams back. She was so proud the day she got her driver's license and Tonya upheld her wishes. I don't know the exact number of the people's who lives changed because of her generosity. But I do know that it should be posted here. She is honored on the Tree of Life at Rapides Regional Hospital across from the ICU to forever remain. There are several other memorials honoring her and hopefully we'll be able to increase that year by year. 

You will never be forgotten, for that.. We will make sure. 



College life

September 17, 2012



Right now I don't know if you'd be too disgusted to see how the guys live in the dorm or if you'd tear in there like a tornado yelling at Eric that it's disgusting and people don't live like that! I watched their flag line perform last week and it made me think how happy you'd be in a band with 300 people doing one of your most favorite things. Me and your Mom joke about how you'd be handling college life. Without a doubt we think you'd be having an absolute ball. Eric comes home almost every weekend and I see you telling him are you crazy there are parties to go TO! We're in college NOW! Your mother keeps teasing me, for all the laughs and jokes I made of you circle breathing when you got excited, she says I do it too.. All I have to say is IF I do... without a doubt I know where I learned it from :P.. 

Graduation was amazing, you were front of center, got a standing ovatation from the entire stadium and every single senior there. Not a dry eye in the house AND you got to go FIRST. Days, weeks, months roll by but it still feels like yesterday. But I'm happy to say you are so far from forgotten and missed every single second of everyday by friends and family. 

Your mom still gets random strangers that approach her and tell her that they met you, knew you etc. Girl you definitely lived large in this small town, because it seems like it's a common occurance Tonya gets oh, you're Shai's mom!! She's blown away by it.. Makes her smile, make her proud.. I don't know if you have a hand in this, but if you do.. Keep it up, she loves to hear it.

Keep an eye on Eric for me, you know he's a boy and ugh, they just don't have it all together like you would. <3 ..
