Tributes
Leave a tributeYour Niece, Nina Leigh ♥️
You don't know us, but my friends and I have been on a journey for the past several months (one of us who shares your history, much much longer), pouring through family trees and documents, faded photos as well as more recent.
Its wonderful seeing the love you all share for each other here, and without ever having met, you've already touched our hearts.
Maybe one day, we'll be able to return the favor.
May you find comfort and peace.
Sincerely,
Lacey/Kristina, Jack, Kara, Jessica and Gwen
I promise to grieve that absence of your physical being for only a moment.
And then I promise to set you free.
I promise to never give up on others,
even when I'm ready to give up on myself.
I promise to be a friend and a mentor as you were.
To be a helping hand, a shoulder to cry on or a set of ears to simply listen..
I promise to let you hear every giggle and feel every hug.
To know every heartache,
and let you be there for every triumphant moment...
The most important promise I can make,
despite all my failures and all my losses.
A promise that carries the equivalence of all the rest combined is this...
I promise to make you proud.
With all that I am, I LOVE YOU
like your presence is so near,
And I close my eyes to visualize
your face when you were here,
I endure the times we spent together
and they are locked inside my heart,
For as long as I have those memories
we will never be apart,
Even though we cannot speak anymore
my voice is always there,
Because every night before I sleep
I have you in my prayer.
You told me not to cry but to remember all the crazy times
we had together,
I'm trying Sis truly I am but I'm lost without you.
My sister, my best friend, Till I see you again Lisa

So True "Only The Good Die Young"
My life & Elissa's life were joined together in 1979 & 1980 when I got pregnant at age 15 & Elissa took me in via request by my Dad & stepmother as my sister Elissa lived in Florida far away from all of the guilt ridden stares of whoever I was shuffled far away from and I was so thankful to be with my eldest Sister in her home with her sweet family & no judging stares and or nasty whispered comments about my condition. We became more than family because families guilt one another either out loud or through many silent actions. Elissa & I were so far apart in age but more alike in our lives & personalities than anyone else in our family. I do miss you Sis I could always count on the truth from you and the ability to make you laugh till we cried. Michael misses his Aunt Passy more than words can express, it was like his other Mom had left him the day you went to be with Thomas & Jenn , Mom and Dad & as you called him Daddy Charlie . It's the saddest time of the year March, April & May for Michael T & I . I will get through it time after time until I can be with my family & our Heavenly Father..I truly understand being so tired of all of the obstacles and drama of everyday life just to finally reach the end of the day...Elissa you were bigger than life & brighter than the Sun
The Two Of Us
Growing up together Lisa and I were dressed alike had our hair cut the same as if we were twins when in fact we are a year and a half apart. That didn't seen to matter we were as close as twins our entire life. She was my best friend, my confident, the one person who always was there for me, to talk to to hand with. Anytime I needed anything or anyone she was there for me and I for her. Now that she's gone I am lost in life. I still talk to her and I know she can hear me and after all these years i'm pretty sure what she would say. I miss hearing her voice and hearing her call me sweet girl. I always will but I have our memories that I will cherrish forever. Lisa was the most loving person always there for everyone. I'm grateful for the time we had together . She was the best person i've ever known or ever will. Til I see you again sis.
