Happy Birthday baby!! I miss you so much. I know this is your second Birthday in Heaven and I know if they have ice cream it will be butter almond. You were a part of my life for so long...I will never forget your smile, your shining eyes or your crazy laugh....<3

I thought of you today my sweet nephew. I miss sharing candy bars and strawberry Milk with you. It seems unreal that your not here..and it's been almost a year..and I miss you like it was yesterday. I hope you and Tony have all the computer problems fixed before I get to Heaven..

There is not a day that I come to RCC and not think of my friend Leo. Like me he was forced back into returning to school after many years out of it. We both felt like we stood out being men of large stature and older than most of our classmates, but we did it! We both completed what we set out to d

All Is Well
Death is nothing at all,
I have only slipped into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Call me by my old familiar name,
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used
Put no difference in your tone,
Wear no forced air of solem

<3

I can't believe the 6th is almost here..and then it will be the 12th...I miss and love you like crazy..you were my husband, my best friend..through every rough patch we worked together and staid together.

I miss you today.. as I sit alone this morning at the computer, drinking my coffee, scanning facebook and wishing I seen that familiar Morning Knothead,appear in my message block.. I think of you and remember you setting my grill on fire..and the big back breaking hugs.Miss You J

So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

From your first day of life.. until your last..I loved you..your face is forever imprinted on my heart..I miss your sheepish smile and your humorous wit.. and I miss you calling me knothead.. I'm thankful for everyday.. every hug.. and every moment we shared in this life.Love you

ashleigh, I do know how it feels. Happy birthday to leo. and I hope that you are doing well, if you ever need a shoulder i am here. love you, betty

Well JJ! HAPPY BIRTHDAY :~) If what I see now is the reflection of what you were here to create, you were indeed, a very successful man. You left happy and strong children and a wife that will ALWAYS love you. They are a fun bunch and you are missed!

I attended North Moore High School with JJ, he was one of those people that was a friend to everyone regardless of what clothes you wore or group of friends you belonged to. JJ was a very sweet, kind & caring person. We lost contact after school and found each other on Facebook not too long ago. I was not fortunate enough to know his family, but my prayers are with you during this time..

I'm not the best with words but I wanted to say that I didn't know JJ all that well but I know his wife, daughter, stepson & father-in-law well. I love them like my own family. I was there when Ashleigh received the call about his accident...her familys lives changed forever. I will never forget that day. I'm feel blessed to call Ashleigh my friend. If you need me I'm here. Love Melissa

I never met JJ. He, by all appearances, was a well loved and respected family man. In his wife's photo album, he always seems very happy. His children love him. His wife adores him. His family are pleasant folks and this may have much to do with JJ being a great guy to be around. He is missed. God be with you JJ!

Jay was a Smart,Crazy,Blunt man..I love you Jay and Miss you so much,I just can't beleave your gone but we still have your family to hold on too.We will meet again someday Im sure.

I never knew JJ well, but I did know of him from Hunter and Ashleigh. He was an intelligent, good-hearted man...a brilliant writer, I've been told. He could be the sweetest thing ever...And since we share a birthday, perhaps I can celebrate him as well as I celebrate myself. God bless him in Heaven, and everyone who was caught up in his passing.
