I am sitting in my chair with candi and molly next to me. Thinking as I do every day throughout the day, I miss you so. I look at your recliner I so vividly see you in and find myself talking to you and I feel answers in my spirit Like conversations we had.
the days, years are moving so fast, and I know that time here on earth as humans is not but a second in heaven. My heart aches so son as I miss you so much.
we had our disagreements thru the years, but I know we both know that it was out of love and concern we disagreed.
I know you can maybe see all going on hete, but know that you are not stressed because God has shown you all will be okay, just as hear you tell me in our spirit talks. I would love to see on advance the outcomes, but I believe there is a reason for all. I shall keep my faith in God, pray, and I know I will be with you, your dad, and my family again .
Always know how much I love you and will always talk yo you too.

Today is Easter and it's the second uou have not been with us. I miss u ou so much son. It seems like forever I saw you last instead of only year and half. The days pass so fast and I know this time on earth is short compared to time in heaven ehich there are no time limits. I know I will be with u ou when it's my time and will be with all of you again . You are in our thoughts and prayers every day and I feel your presence around me. I love you son......

First day of spring is here......it's cloudy and colder but the warm days are just around the corner. Hope heaven is treating you well. Love, D

Thinking of you as I so often do.....miss seeing your smiling face! Please do me a favor and see if you can get an extra favor from God for our oldest son. He's stuck and needs some help that can only come from our awesome God. Maybe you could visit him too in his dreams and reassure him. Love you....D

Happy birthday Ran! Thank you for being a great little brother and my best friend! Thank you for all the times you were there for me in this life and the times you are there now that you're gone. Thank you for all the wonderful memories that make me smile here and there! We should have been able to celebrate together.... I miss you Randy and love you so much!
Love
Tracy

Happy birthday son.  I wish you were here to give you a hug and say that in person. The months pass by, but your absence lingers every minute of every day. I miss you so much... This morning at 207 am I gave birth to my one and only so , you. I remember kissing you and seeing you the first time you came into this world, and the last time I kissed your forehead and saw you.  i know you are near me and sometimes sense your presence. I just wish I could see you just one more time to say I love you so much and will see you again.

You should have been turning 41 today. I'd like to wish you a happy birthday but there are no more of them. Miss you since you've been gone and not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I love you Randy. Love, D

You've been gone a while now. Lots of new songs have come out since you passed. It's funny how so many can still remind me of you. Wish you were here to listen to the one I just heard yesterday that I can hear you sing to me if I close my eyes and just imagine. Five Finger Death Punch....M.I.N.E. End This Way.....as long as I live, you will always be loved and remembered. Pinky promise! Love, D

I miss you Ran...it's been a sad day

Hey Randy.
It's been a long crazy year!! So much has changed and so many things have happened. I just want our family to be happy again and I know in time we will be. Although there are days I wonder if it will ever happen I hold on to faith and the knowledge that this is a strong family.
There are still days when I can Seperate myself from the fact that you're gone but it always comes back and sucker punches me right in the gut. Guess it's something I have to keep working through.
I just wish I could sleep all night more often and rest enough to dream. I miss seeing you and hearing your voice, maybe if I could dream you'd be back for a little...
I feel lost without you. i probably always will.
Happy New Year my brother. Wish we could've had more time, I miss you so much! Give dad a hug and enjoy the fireworks from Heaven with him! Maybe you two should watch the ball drop

Thinking of you.....Love, D

There are no words to write that can ever say how much I miss my son. Each day is a struggle, each minute i miss him more as each day goes by without him here. The holidays He loved as a child and we always looked forward to these. They were family times together..baking Christmas cookies, cooking, and enjoying our family and friends. i remember the last Christmas we all shared, our family get together, he was just as excited as his sons and nieces and nephews, receiving and opening his gifts.  This is the second holiday season Randy is not here to share with his family but I do. know in my heart he will be with us. 
I wish he could come back just for a little visit each holiday season. I'd take a minute if possible.  He is forever in my heart and he took a part of my heart with him that can never be filled again.  Missing you more thru this holiday.....
Til I see you again......mom

I just really miss you...

The holidays are upon us once again. The second set of them since you were taken. The seasons are definately changing. Subfreezing temps are on the way. Tommy and I went to the lake and put more flowers out in your memory as we do almost every week. You are always in my heart and I miss you so much. Praying for your family to have good holidays this year and be able to enjoy each other again. You will continue to be missed by all regardless. Love ~D

It has been almost 15 months since you were called home. I miss you every second of every day and you are forever in my heart and thoughts. I miss you so much son, but I know in my heart you are okay and happy...with the lord, your dad, and our family. I know your grandmother is taking good care of you too. I wish you could be here for just one minute more so I could hug you and tell you how much I love you and say see you soon son.  You gave me the joy of being your mother and some sorrow at times, but that is part of being a parent. Thank you for blessing me with your sons.  We will all watch over them and raise them to be the young men you knew they would become.  Til I see you again..... Much love....mom

The months have gone so fast son. It seems still unreal at times that you are not here. I miss you so much son as do your sons and sister. I don't know why the lord took you, just as I didn't when he took your dad, but I know the Lord know all and He had to have reason why. There isn't a minute my heart doesn't miss you. I'd even take those calls you use to do anything to hear your voice again.  No matter where I go or what I am doing, you are always close in heart and thought. I know I will see you again in a better place when the Lord calls me too. I just know it isn't my time, for he hs much for me to do yet.  Til then my son......I love and miss you and I will do my best to guide your sons with your help.   Mom

Thinking of you......still miss you every single day. Love, D

Hi Randy. I know I am late but just wanted to tell you I love you. You are in my heart all the time. I have spent the weekend in tears most of the time. I miss you so much. Never thought I would have to do a memory thing for you. It's been a tough year for all of us without you. We are trying to go on but its hard. Just want to thank you for being in my life. You taught me many things. In some ways this seems like only yesterday and in others it seems like forever. I know that you are at peace and not struggling with life anymore and that helps me a lot. I will always remember you and love you

A year ago on Aug 16, a son father husband uncle brother and friend, got up and went to work. I took all our kids to school for the first day. It was a NORMAL day in everyone's life. At 630 I picked up my nephew to bring him over and we all settled in to watch movies. It was a NORMAL Friday night. I missed seeing my brother by five minutes that day and I didn't stay to chat, I just wanted to get home. A NORMAL thing people sometimes do. My brother was out and took a friend for a five minute ride, that's NORMAL too.
At 11:51, a year ago today my brother was in a motorcycle accident and never came back home...nothing has been NORMAL since...
We miss you Randy, and will always. 1/29/74-8/16/13
I love you Randy

For you

I know tomorrow is your actual "sadiversary" but it feels so much like today. It's a Friday, just like last year. I can remember kissing you goodbye for work in the morning. I remember you calling me after work around 3 to say you were going to have a beer. I remember calling you at 5 on my home to tell you my truck was acting up and you telling me you promised you would fix it tomorrow. I remember you coming home at 6ish and us talking about an hour or more about everything. It was a really good talk with a lot of laughs and smiles. Then you made the tragic decision to leave again.....this time on your motorcycle. That was last time I would ever see you alive. I miss your smile Randy.....so much. I will continue to miss you, think of you and remember you for as long as I live babe.

Thanks Randy, I got it! Wish you were here and love you so much

Wow, August is just around the corner. I am dreading it. Really I just want to skip it all together. Seriously Randy! I can't believe it's been a year. I never thought I'd survive the first day, the first week, the first month and now the first year without you. I am getting stronger as each day goes by. Though I never wanted to do this without you, you left me no choice. I am grateful because you showed me how to get up and keep moving no matter what happens. You showed me how to survive regardless of my circumstances. I listened to what you said about all that even though I am pretty sure you didn't think I was. I am doing it. I am still going. I am happy for the most part. There is still a void in my life and I know there always will be but I am okay and I'm gonna make it. Still miss you and will all my life. Love you....

Year is creeping up. Sometimes feels like forever and sometimes like yesterday and most times like a bad dream we will all wake up from. I keep calling for you but I can find you. It's a struggle to chose life since you left but I'm trying to keep getting up to keep a smile. Have a lot to be thankful for right here but I'm tired. So much has happened throughout my life and I always bounce back but this time it's been a constant struggle. The hopes and dreams we had finally coming home, the HOPE, was taken from us all. We had such grand expectations and they were shattered in a billion pieces...it's been put back together so many times in the past that I can't seem to get everything to fit right anymore. We needed you Randy and still do...where are you???

Hey Ran, remember about five or six years ago when you called me telling me I wasn't your sister anymore because your sister would have talked to you and asked for help?? Well your sister is calling you and asking for help now...are you there?
Love you
Tracy

Thinking of you a lot lately.....even more than usual. It is less than a month now until you've been in heaven for a year. So much has happened in that year that you've missed and I hate that. I still know you are at peace and that is the saving grace that has allowed me to accept what has happened and continue on with my life. I still keep you safely tucked in my heart and will for all my life. We miss you honey.....tons!! Please keep a watch over all of us......and put in a good word to the man upstairs for us. I love you.

Today is the Fourth of July and all of us should be sitting outside at your home watching fireworks, joking, laughing as we have done in Years past. This year, nothing is the same... Your sister and sam and your niece and nephews and your son shylen are shooting fireworks at their home tonight. Tommy and denna are having others over at your home and I am at home trying to not miss you so much on this first Fourth of July you are gone.   Your sister and I will keep our promise to you and be here always for your sons, as we have since day they were born. I miss you every day and would even take one of your "ugly" phone calls right now too.   Love, mom

There is no word that can describe the feeling I have in my heart and soul since you left us. The void is so overwhelming and I know this will be endured the rest of my life. It doesn't seem possible it is almost your one year angelversary.  The days have quickly passed but in our hearts your absence in my life, your sister's, your sons and nieces and nephews it feel like a bad dream still.

we have gone thru many "firsts" days without your presence in physical form, but our memories, sharing them with each other on these loo occasions has helped ease the reality you are gone from this life. I don't know why the Lord called you and Leah home but have faith that there was a reason. One day I will know the answer.

Sometimes I feel your presence so strong and know you are close helping me deal with all going on. I know in my heart all will be okay for our family and especially the boys. You will never be forgotten. Your sister and I will tell our memories of you throughout the years to your sons and her kids so they can share with future generations.

I miss and love you so much son. Sometimes the ache in my heart is so great I cannot handle it. I know now why your sister tracy and family were meant to move here when they did. It was to help me and your sons and to help each other when you left. The Lord knew we would help each other thru this and be reunited back as a family..and be even closer then ever before.

you are dearly loved and missed my son....please help ease the hearaches along my way thru life your absence left. Im not as strong as once was... (smile).
Forever loved and missed.......love. mom

I can't believe it's been almost a year since this traumatic event took you from me so quickly. It still seems like yesterday you were laughing and smiling and telling me goodbye before you went to work. I can still see you so clearly. Yet, at the same time, it seems like an eternity since I've seen your face and heard the sound of your laughter. I still miss you and will my whole life. Love you Randy

Hey almost 10 months now. I don't quite believe this still. Home isn't home without you...I came home for you and you left...I miss my brother and childhood buddy
Love you so much Ran
Ps give dad a giant hug

Just thinking of you today Randy and the life we once shared. I am grateful and honored to have been your wife. I love you.

There is not a day or minute you are not on my mind. I miss you son so much. The void you left in our lives is forever felt. This first Easter you will be with us in heart and spirit and your seat at my table is forever yours. I know I will be with you and the rest of my loved ones very soon and I look for that day but I know you'd want me to be here for your sons and sister and Denna. I know in my heart you are happy, enjoying time with your dad and grandparents and family. I know you are with The Lord and that gives me peace. I also know now you know how deeply you were and are loved by me and your family.  I love you so much and miss you terribly sometimes my heart hurts so badly.  Sending you many hugs my son.  Drop in sometimes to see me ok.

God I miss you so much!!!

For my dear cousin, Randy. I send much love to you. As long as I live, you will never be forgotten. Thank you for the times we had, I will cherish them always. Thank you to my Uncle Mike for teaching me technical things, my Aunt Jamie for teaching the importance of family, my dear cousins Tracy, and Randy. Infinite hugs and love to each of you...

Randy, I hope you had a wonderful birthday. I am sure you did because you celebrated it with Jesus. I love and miss you so much. You are always in my heart and will be forever. I miss your smile, your jokes and even your calling me an old lady. It has been very hard to go on without you, but I know you are being taken care of since you are with your Dad and Jesus. Thank you for being the greatest son-in-law there ever could be. You always took care of me and Dad and I just want you to know that we appreciated every thing you did for us. I wish I could have done so much more for you. I have to admit I couldnt go to the lake for your balloons because it was just too emotional for me. Sometimes its just too sad for me to go to the lake, but its certainly not because I dont care, because I do. I know that you know how much Dad and I love you. Love you so much. Mom Yoder

Happy 40th Birthday! It must be amazing to be able to spend it with dad. I got you 40 balloons and we are all sending them to you in a couple hours. I hope your day has been wonderful. I bet you two went fishing on some beautiful lake up there. I really miss you but am determined to celebrate your life today. Hugs to you and give one to dad. Love you both to Heaven and back
Always with you
Your sister

Today my son you would be celebrating his 40th birthday. I had planned on giving you a surprise 40th, but God had other plans for this year.. I want you to know son how deeply my heart misses you and how much I love you. Every second I think of you and you are always in my thoughts and heart as I go thru this life's up and downs. I am so blessed having you as my son, and the almost 40 years you were with me and our family. I know how much you loved me and even tho sometimes words were spoken I know in our hearts the bond between mother and son is very very strong. I am so proud of you for all you accomplished, blessed with your sons, and sister and Denna. I wish I could hug you just one more time, so I could tell you how much I love you. I know all of us will be okay and I promised you when boys were babies, I would always keep them safe, be there for them no matter what and promised you many times after when we talked in past years. I will do this til I join you and your dad and our family in heaven. 
I miss you son....soooo much.  I hope you are having the best 40th ever with your dad, family and Jesus.  They can give you the best ever. 
Sending much love tonight to you in heaven. Be watching son, we all will be there.  Mom

Happy Birthday Honey.....I hope the angels are having a great 40th birthday party for you. I love you and miss you so much!

Happy Birthday baby boy...forever and always.

To my father, a wonderful caring man who I was lucky to be raised by. Without you I would not be the person I am today. You taught me right from wrong and snapped me into shape when I was going down bad roads and making bad decisions. You were one of the most understanding person I have in my life, you always told me no matter what if I have something on my mind that's bothering me I can come to you and that you were not only my father but also my bestfriend, I should have taken advantage of those times because ive had a lot of my things on my mind lately, but I know you are always listening . I miss the man that could make a whole room explode with laughter and slap a smile on everyones face, I wish we couldve had more times like that but I will always have those memories close to heart. You always said me and Tommy were your heroes but you were our hero and we will always look up to you. Love you dad, I'll see you again one day but I till then i'll be making you proud down here and live a great life for you.

My brother and best friend. I know you are with dad but learning to live without you will be a lifetime lesson I'm not sure I'll pass. I love and miss you every second of everyday. Give dad a hug...

Love you forever and a day sweetness......until we meet again I will miss you every day of my life.

Son, I love and miss you more than words can say.  I miss seeing you, hearing your voice, and just knowing you are here. My heart aches and i know this will never go away because when you left a part was taken with you. I know this is not goodbye, I know I will be with you again. Til then, know I will be here to help your sons , sister and wife as I always have and we will forever miss and love you. You will be remembered every day and I'm looking forward to day I will see you again. I know you are with your dad, grandparents and rest of our family and most of all you are with The Lord. I love you my son..... mom

To the young man who made me laugh, made me angry, made me smile....but most of all to the man who was always the best he could be to our daughter and their sons. Always in my heart.
