Angel In Heaven
There's a special angel in Heaven
that is a part of me.
It is not where I wanted him
but where God wanted him to be.
He was here just a moment
like a nighttime shooting star.
And though He is in Heaven
he isn't very far.
He touched the heart of many
like only an Angel can do.
I would've held him every minute
if the end I only knew.
So I send this special message
to the Heaven up above.
Please take care of my Angel
IF LOVE ALONE COULD OF SAVED YOU,
YOU NEVER WOULD OF DIED....

Thinking of you these last few weeks.
Miss ya buddy.
It made me think of my nephew Chris. i met Chris when he was a baby, then again when he was about 10, he was a good kid, very respectful, Right away I felt he was fun to be around. he had blond hair and reminded me so much of Charlie Bucket from the movie Willy Wonka that i started calling him Charlie Bucket. I felt a bond with Chris like he was a friend, I remember coming back from a casino with a dollar chip colored gold, I gave it to him and told him "go in there and say I've got a golden coin" (like from the movie, almost... ticket/coin... whatever) like a good sport (or a friend would do) he went along with the crazy antics of his uncle.
Deanne, I hope you find solitude in this message.
Chris didn't die, he simply went back home to heaven where we all come from and eventually end up, whether still berth or 99 years old we ALL end up back home in heaven. We all have a reason for being here on earth, but none of us has the answers for why? When i was young and had to move away from the only home I knew i cried because i wanted all of my friends to move with me, but i knew they couldn't, and years later it dawned on me that people leave friends all of the time and maybe heaven is the place where we all end up, kinda like wanting your friends to go with you when you have to move. So when we have to move on (from life on earth) we ALL eventually end up back home in heaven, (This is why the song one sweet day is so important) Chris will eventually be reunited with everyone he met here on earth, his time here is done, God took him back home, for what ever reason, Chris completed his mission here on earth and couldn't stay, for what ever reason or what ever message he was here to get through to the rest of us, he had to leave because his mission was complete. It was his time to leave. He obviously got his message across to whoever he needed to learn it.
If you knew Chris you will see him again, but only in the afterlife.
Burr is gone and you need to accept it, no matter how hard it is, your mother is also gone, and one day, when you die, you will be reunited.
Heaven is your real home, life on earth is temporary,
I started this message with this post:
I recently learned of the death of a young girl, 26 years old. she was murdered actually.
So what is that message? we may never know.
Just wanted you to know I've been thinking about you all this time. You visited me in my dreams a few times and it was always like our times together in school. You always made me smile and I still do looking back on those memories. You've got a special spot in my heart forever.
I miss you
Catch myself thinking of u always
I wanna say so much to say but can't get the words out
Timmy!

years later, when he was about 8, I went to Vegas on vacation and met him again, I gave him the nick name Charley Bucket because of his blonde hair and he did sort of look like the kid from the movie Willy Wonka.
I lost touch with my family about 2 years ago and recently getting back in touch, I learned less than a week ago that he died, the night I got the news I got drunk, cried and cursed at God.
I know it in my heart that we all come here to earth for a reason, we are offered the challenge to take on our own life path, shown what our purpose here on earth will be, than we either accept or decline without being judged by God. Christopher accepted his challenge.
we see our entire life path in an instant, are told of our mission and when we will (die) leave earth.
we are born into a human baby, with some memory of heaven which goes away with time (before a year) because we can not know why we are here because if we did we would try to rush the completion of our reason here so we could return home to heaven.
but our reason for being here can only happen if the rest of the chips fall into play, for example: Bill Gates couldn't have started his mission to cure aids without money, he could not have made that type of money without the advancement of the internet, so he could not have jumped into aids research when he was 17 in the 1970's.
how many times have you heard the term de je vu?
how many times have you heard "my life flashed in front of my eyes"?
I bet many because we all know what both of those mean.
let me bring you back to heaven for a moment, we are all shown our life in a flash even before we are born, and people who almost die say they saw their life flash before their eyes.
the reason we have had de je vu is to remind us that we have seen that situation before, de je vu is a tiny memory of when we watched our life happen in heaven even before we were born.
some people die when they are 90, some when they are 20, in retrospect it is the same time, at the end it all was a flash.
there are no clocks in heaven, time is only of this earth.
we are all sent here, each for our own reason and we leave when it is time for us to leave.
Christopher had a very important reason for coming here, the way he died was very powerful, and so was the reason he was born.
it had to be the way it was because the message he left needed to be that powerful, there are kids at the age he was who needed the message he sent, his death sent a message to the people who needed to hear that message, he saved countless lives, those people he saved will effect other people in good ways because they avoided following his path, (he was the fork in the road) one of them may even find a cure to a disease that there is no cure to at this time, so Chris sent the message to that person not to do that drug, and saved their life, he saved someone who will eventually save many more people, that person is very important to the human race because they will figure out a cure to what ever ailment is hindering the human race.
the person Chris saved is very important to the future of humanity, but if Chris never came here to earth all of those people would never had a chance, no matter what. Christopher Wrath was more important to humanity than the person he saved because if he never came here those people wouldn't have had a chance.
knowing what I know I don't cry for Chris, what makes me cry is thinking about how his mother must have taken it.
Chris is a hero Deanne.
love Keith.

A lost friend
My name is Aaron.
Chris was a friend of mine from middle school all the way into our early adult lives. We lived together, got our first jobs together, laughed together, cried together, and shared our visions of the future. We shared the most personal stories of our lives with each other, from our families, friends, and love interests and everything else. I would not be who I am today without him.
I will be married soon, to a wonderful women. Chris and I were suppose to have kids that would grow up to be friends like we were. It pains my heart to think it will never come to fruition.
Chrises memory never leaves me more than a short period. The pain of losing him has matured into a copia of different emotions. His death has made me mature more than any other life experience to date. Everything happpens for a reason I guess. It’s whatever.
Thank you Chris. Thank you. I cry as I write this but I know now it had to happen. I feel you watching over us, guiding us, consoling us. Thank you. I know you get the letters I leave you at the cemetery. Continue to watch over us. Help Wayne and his kid, watch over Isaiah and his family, I hope Dustin hasn’t lost his way, and continue to send my family reassuring messages the way you have been.
I believe in things now I never did growing up. I appreciate the way I see the world now, in a way I never would have been able to. You can never genuinely appreciate the good times until you’ve experienced the bad times. I can appreciate now that times are good. A time for everything. “Ecclesiastes 3”
Continue to teach us lessons and watch over us. We miss you Chris. I miss you. We love you. I love you. Until we meet again my closest friend.
Your friend -Aaron.
Mom is on her death bed
I hope she dies soon, not because i hate her but because i love her, she was diognosed with terminal cancer and is going to die from it, so she is at the end of her life, she is on her death bed, if she dies now she will avoid all of the suffering, the longer she remains alive the more she will suffer which is why i hope she dies sooner than later. i know this is Burr's page but i think my thoughts are related to his death. and i hope that Deanne can accept our mothers death the way i have (even though Ma hasn't died yet) Mom is on her way back home to heaven, where we all end up, and i hope that she can understand that Christopher is lucky because he returned home at such a young age, he does not have to deal with all of the shit we who are still alive have to deal with, he no longer has to deal with world events like the world we still live in where terrorism exists, he does not have to worry about what we have to deal with, he is in heaven because he fulfilled the reason why he was sent here in the first place, life on earth is like a job, Chris did his job and God took his soul back, God took his soul back because he did not belong here longer than his reason for being here, none of us do, we are here for a limited time, some are here longer than others for reasons we may never understand, all of us die but we do not die, when we end our time here on earth we go back to heaven, heaven is where we all live, earth is where we all come to die, then we return to heaven where eternity exists, life on earth is like a job, we come here and when our job is complete we go back home, i accept that Chris died because it means he went back home and i am happy that he completed the reason he came to earth, don't get me wrong i am not happy with the way he died but i had no choice in that matter, and i am not happy with the way my mother is leaving either, but we do not have control over that. life on earth is temporary and we are born only to complete the reason we were sent here, then we die and go back home, as for you who are reading this, i am assuming that you know my mother's history with her kids, i found out she was terminal, i want to remember her when she was active, she is on her death bed and i refuse to see her, trust me i know that she understands, i am in touch with her, i sent her flowers, a teddy bear, and a card, she loves carnations, which i sent her, and also appreciates a simple card (even more), the teddy bear is for her to hold as she thinks about me when i am not there, the card i wrote to her does not say get well (because we both know she is dying) i talked to her on the phone and told her i love her and i hope she feels better, none of this (fake) get well soon crap, i know she is dying, (there is no more get well soon) and i wanted to be honest with her, as i said if you know our history you will appreciate what i wrote, i saved it in a file for future reference. here is what my sister Debbie read to her:
Mom, life is a mystery and everything happens for a reason, our time on earth is temporary, heaven is our real home, every choice you made was the right one even if you think you made some mistakes, they are all forgiven. love, Keith
i felt that would be better than "please Mommy don't die" death is a BIG part of life so accept it even if you think you can't, you really have no choice either way. we all die.
Keith.
