Tributes
Leave a tributeSo much has happened since I last talked to you. I've had a few hand surgeries to fix the RA deformities. They're looking better, though one of my fingers feels a bit numb and I know that they'll never look like they used to. Mikey moved out. Neither one of us have vehicles to visit the other. Anyway, you've been watching so you've seen what's been happening. I'm trying to get a job quickly, so I can get a new truck, and what I'd like even better is to be off of all of this assistance for good. I'll let it go at that. Even if I don't stop by as often and leave a note, it doesn't mean I've forgotten about you. You were one of the best friends Mikey has ever had and seemed to understand him better than most people. You were the big brother he's never had and something between like a little brother/friend/son to me. Sometimes he even listened to you better than he listens to me. lol. We both cherish our friendships with you and will never forget.
You will always be in my heart. I will love you every single day for the rest of my life.
And I know that when my time comes, you will meet me at heavens gates with your arms wide open. I love you. <3
Find comfort in the words of our Lord Jesus.

I wake up in the morning
And I look up to the sky.
I wonder why he took you
before I could say good-bye
I look up to the stars at night
And know you're looking down.
I'd like to think you're proud of me
But I'm just stumbling round.
So I crawl in bed and close my eyes
And realize that you're really gone.
Then comes the fears and then the tears
And life just seems so wrong.
I glance up at the heavens
And I know you're flying by.
My Angel's watching over me.
I'm happy as I cry.
I remember one night that Josh, Michael, and I were on the way back to Josh's house after CAP. I let him drive since he said he knew a quicker way. While we were joking, he asked if we wanted to go to England on the way. Michael excitedly said sure (not thinking about where England actually is), so since there wasn't anyone coming Josh went into the left lane and said, "Okay, now we're in England" and we all laughed.
I Miss You © Alyssa
You don't have a clue.
You were like a brother
now my heart is in two.
I think about you constantly.
Can't get you off my mind.
I understand it was destiny,
but you were so sweet and kind.
I know you're in a better place,
but yet my heart keeps crying.
You were so sweet and innocent at time
and inside my body is dying.
But I know I'll have to move on
because it is what you would want.
You would want me not to cry,
but to be happy and live a wonderful life.
I'll always remember the wonderful memories you left behind
and hopefully I'll see you when the time to go is mine.
