Remembering you today Toot.
This was to be your special day. Your Birthday. Many memories are brought to my mind today. Words can not express what I am feeling right now. Tears my brother. You are gone to soon! I look back on your heart. Such a gentle one. Yet it took a while to get to it. LOL. Not many saw that side of you. You had to be strong, and project that strength. I could go on and on about you Toot. But ,I will just say... I'm thinking of you, and remembering...missing you... and I want you to know, I love you! Happy Birthday little brother. ❤

Happy birthday baby I'm sorry it's so late but today has been a very busy day. Things are going okay here Chelsea and Bella are fine. Cheryl really screwed over CJ she made him lose his house and her son totally destroyed one of CJ cars. I had to drive to Arizona with Mom and Jerry and a friend so we could pick up his stuff and his two cars and bring it back to California. She says that she made a promise to keep an eye on him I'm taking it that was to you I certainly hope you'll release her from that. I do not want them keeping an eye on CJ. And Kayla stoled your motorcycle right off of CJ property. If that wasn't a bunch of s***. I'm sorry it's all bad news today but I have been thinking about you all day. I will talk to you for Christmas love you and miss you.

Chelsea is doing fine, Bella is getting very big she starts kindergarten this year. CJ has bumped into a hard time. But he is not with Nicole anymore and that's a good thing. He drives for another trucking company now but I don't even remember their name. He sure could use you now so please watch over him. Steven is messing his life up but what else is new. He is back in jail for drugs again. Love you and think of you lots Sherri

It has been 3 years since your physical body left this life, your spiritual presence is still felt and makes it possible to continue in this life without you and to continue raising your oldest granddaughter as you wanted. She has gotten used to hearing one sided conversations with you and loves to know that you still watch over us.  I am looking forward to the day when I can finally join you in the next life as this one is getting tiresome. As you know - I love you with all my heart and soul thru eternity

I didn't fall in love with you,
I walked into love with you,
with my eyes wide open,
Choosing to take
every step along the way.
I do believe in fate and destiny,
but I also believe
we are only fated
do do the things
that we'd choose anyway.
And I would choose you,
in a hundred lifetimes,
in a hundred worlds,
in any version of reality,
I'd find you and I'd choose you.

Love ya Sweetheart

When someone leaves us never to return to the land of the living, we miss them so much. Christmases are often times when we miss them the most, but we are glad to have known them when they walked through life with us.

I did introduce Kayla to Sonny at Bike Week here in Phoenix, he remembered Bryanna and addressed her by name. Sonny was saddened to hear of your crossing over and said "We are losing too many Brothers"

I thought of you thru out the day yesterday, the day of your birth into this life, talking with your daughter and granddaughter who both are so much like you. We know you are still with us as we can hear you and feel your presence, you know it brings us much comfort. We love you sweetheart and it won't be much longer before I join you in the next life, where I know you are waiting!!

I think of you every single day and it hasn't gotten any easier. Now today it has been exactly one year since I held you in my arms and told you that I love you. I can hardly wait until I can see you again. Steven is finally growing up, he got a job and is taking care of himself finally.  CJ is still driving truck and doing very good. He makes sure I get to see him every couple of months. Chelsea and your granddaughter are both doing wonderful and are both beautiful. Until I see you again I have our memories. I Love You Forever

I think about you always, I think about you still,
You have never been forgotten, and you never will
I hold you close within my heart, and there you will remain
To walk with me, throughout my remaining days in this life
Until we reunite in the afterlife
Love you Sweetheart

Toot, what can I say. I have so many memories, but they are mostly of when you were small. You had a rough upbringing. Pretty much raised yourself. Mom worked so hard to just put food on the table. Your father was pretty rough on you. I knew you to be a tough little boy, and grew to be a tough man. But there was a 'tender' side of you. One you kept hidden. I believe you felt you HAD to. You could show no weakness. Oh, the man you could have been, had you been given the chance. Anyway, I won't dwell on the 'could of, and should have been'. I remember your tremendous love for mom. She was your rock. As she was mine. And all of ours, for that matter. I remember how you and Terry would wrestle around in the living room. At times getting pretty rough. Like the time your foot was broken, in a cast, and Terry had a hold of it. He was telling you to say uncle, and you wouldn't! All you had to do was say it! But, you never did. You were one tough little guy! I remember a time we were awakened to you singing 'if you think I'm sexy, and you want my body" in the bathroom one morning. At the top of your lungs! lol Terry raised his head and said "what the H*** is that!!!" Laughter for weeks!!! LOL I am smiling now thinking of it. (sorry brother, but you COULD NOT sing!)
I remember the time you fell asleep while we were camping, and we painted your face and put barrettes in your hair. We wrote, 'you snooze you loose' on your chest. Terry held you down once you woke, because we weren't finished. You were laughing so hard!!! I found a picture of that not to long ago. So much fun! 
Yes, your life was rough, and I know God saw every bit of it. You are with him now. Until I see you again little brother, this is just, "see you soon. I love you...." <3

It's hard to believe it's Aug already. It's almost been a year since you left this earth but the pain is still as Real. If I logged in here and posted every time I thought of you this book would be full. But I know you and your Mom are up there looking down on us and someday we will all be reunited again and laugh over all the good memories we shared. Just wanted to let you know I thought about you today. May you continue to Rest in Peace.

I am so glad I found you again and we got to spend a few short years together before you crossed over. I know you said you will see me in the next life, I can't wait! Your daughter was so happy to finally get to ask so many questions she had for you, and you made your granddaughter's life knowing she had more relatives, she still makes things for you and we put them by your picture and her container of your ashes. We can feel your presence and hear you talking to us, it really helps!! Love you sweetheart!!

Goodbye My Friend
 
Though we never know

Where life will take us,

I know it's just a ride

On the wheel.

And we never know

When death will shake us

And we wonder how

It will feel.
 
So Goodbye my friend.

I know I'll never see you again.

But the time together

Through all the years,

Will take away these tears.

It's OK now - Goodbye my friend.




I see a lot of things

That make me crazy,

And I guess I held on to you,

You could have run away

And left - well maybe,

But it wasn't time

And we both knew.




So Goodbye My friend.

I know I'll never see you again.

But the love you gave me

Through all the years

Will take away these tears.

I'm OK now - Goodbye my friend.

Even though I didn't know you that well mom spoke highly of you and all the fun you guys had together. And seeing her smile when she talks about you just shows how much you meant to her. And you are missed and loved by so many people... RIP Toot

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.

I'm following the path God has laid, you see.

I took His hand when I heard His call.

I turned my back and left it all.




I could not stay another day,

To laugh, to love, to work or play.

Tasks left undone must stay that way,

I found the peace at the close of day.




If my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with remembered joys.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,

yes, these things I too will miss.




Be not burdened with times of sorrow.

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life's been full, I savored much,

Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.




Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee.

God wanted me now,

He set me free

You never said I'm leaving

You never said goodbye.

You were gone before I knew it,

And only God knew why.




A million times I needed you,

A million times I cried.

If love alone could have saved you,

You never would have died.




In life I loved you dearly,

In death I love you still.

In my heart you hold a place,

That no one could ever fill.




It broke my heart to lose you,

But you didn't go alone

For part of me went with you,

The day God took you home.

I have looked for you so many times over the years. Every time I came up empty. In dreams you visited me . you told me how things had changed and looking at you I saw the you , you always tried to hide to the real world. I saw the you I knew behind closed doors. The caring, loving you. The gentle side you so often hid from so many. Your eyes so Blue Your smile so fresh and inviting. your laugh I will have forever embedded in my memory and my heart. Last night I looked for you and This time I knew in my heart of hearts that I would make a connection. I signed on line and there was a message waiting for me. A message I could have done without reading today. Today I found out that last month you went home to be with the Lord. The tears Immediately began to fall. So in shock and yet no not really. When I think of all you had been through in your life I wonder why God allows some people to suffer so much more than others. There will never be another Person like you. Im sure I will never have anyone climb the side of a building to hang a banner on it that read " Maria Will you Marry me?" not to mention hang one on every stop sign and fwy over pass on the way to my work. No one that will fill my office with so many flowers that it would shame a flower shop. Nor will I ever find someone that will take my car and hide it from me and change out the transmission over night just to see if I can figure out the pattern. I will always see you when I drive the car you re built for me ( Yes I still have it) Ugh a piece of me died today and I just wish I could have told you How sorry I was for saying NO to you all those many years ago. I wish you could have known that I did regret some of the choices I was forced to make all those years ago. Tonight when I go to bed I will say a Prayer for you like I always do, and This time Since I already know where you are I will ask the Lord to let you see all the words Ive written .Then maybe I will be able to find some peace knowing I was going to tell you all this when I finally found you again .But now I have to deal with the fact that you will never hear the spoken words, and never read the written ones with your beautiful blue eyes again. May you Finally Find Peace and Rest in it always. Until we meet again Sleep well. In Loving memory of Claude Gene Morris Nov 1962-Aug 2014
