I CAN SHED TEARS THAT STEFANIE IS GONE OR I CAN SMILE BECAUSE SHE LIVED I CAN CLOSE MY EYES AND PRAY THAT SHE'LL COME BACK OR I CAN OPEN MY EYES AND SEE ALL THAT SHE HAS LEFT.
MY HEART CAN BE EMPTY BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE HER OR I CAN BE FULL OF THE LOVE THAT WE SHARED. I CAN TURN MY BACK ON TOMORROW AND LIVE IN YESTERDAY OR I CAN BE BLESSED FOR TOMORROW BECAUSE OF YESTERDAY.
I CAN REMEMBER STEFANIE AND ONLY THAT SHE IS GONE OR I CAN CHERISH HER MEMORY AND LET IT LIVE ON. I CAN CRY AND CLOSE MY HEART BE EMPTY AND TURN BACK OR I CAN DO WHAT STEFANIE WOULD WANT: SMILE~OPEN MY EYES~CONTINUE TO LOVE AND GO ON~ SMILE BECAUSE YOU LIVED STEFANIE~~~ ...............ALWAYS LOVING YOU SWEETHEART YOUR MOM~
Such a beautiful young girl, My heart goes out to you. I wish I had the perfect words to help you but we know that isn't possible but inside our hearts with words unspoken we know exactly how each other feels. A mother should never lose a child in the perfect world we wish that we had. We can only have faith that one day we will be with our children again.
You are not alone / Melissa Hedge (Daughter of Angel Paul W. Thomas )
Tammy, Sometimes the pain of loosing someone you love makes you forget that you are not alone. Thank you so much for lighting a candle on my Dad's site. It brought tears to my eyes to see that other people really do care, And that I am not alone. You and your family are in my thoughts and Prayers may God Bless you all. Melissa Daughter of Angel Paul W. Thomas
When tomorrow starts without me, And I'm not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry The way you did today, While thinking of the many things, We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, As much as I love you, and each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me, Please try to understand, That an angel came and called my name, And took me by the hand, and said my place was ready, In heaven far above, And that I'd have to leave behind All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, A tear fell from my eye For all my life, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, So much left yet to do, It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays The good ones and the bad, I thought of all the love we shared, and all the fun we had.
If I could re-live yesterday Just even for a while, I'd say good-bye and kiss you And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized, That this could never be, For emptiness and memories, would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home When God looked down and smiled at me, From His great golden throne.
He said, "This is eternity, And all I've promised you." Today your life on earth is past, But here life starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, But today will always last, And since each day's the same way There's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithful, So trusting and so true. Though there were times You did some things You knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven And now at last you're free. So won't you come and take my hand And share my life with me?
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.

Twas not long until Christmas / Jo-Ann Pacenta Lauren's Mom (Angel family friend )
Twas not long before Christmas and I dreaded the days, That I knew I was facing – the holiday craze. The stores were all filled with holiday lights, In hopes of drawing customers by day and by night. As others were making their holiday plans, My heart was breaking - I couldn’t understand. I had lost my dear child a few years before, And I knew what my holiday had in store. When out of nowhere, there arose such a sound, I sprang to my feet and was looking around, Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash The sight that I saw took my breath away, And my tears turned to smiles in the light of the day. When what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a cluster of butterflies fluttering near. With beauty and grace they performed a dance, I knew in a moment this wasn’t by chance. The hope that they gave me was a sign from above, That my child was still near me and that I was loved. The message they brought was my holiday gift, And I cried when I saw them in spite of myself. As I knelt closer to get a better view, One allowed me to pet it - as if it knew - That I needed the touch of its fragile wings, To help me get through the holiday scene. In the days that followed I carried the thought, Of the message the butterflies left in my heart - That no matter what happens or what days lie ahead, Our children are with us - they’re not really dead. Yes, the message of the butterflies still rings in my ears, A message of hope - a message so dear. And I imagined they sang as they flew out of sight, “To all bereaved parents - We love you tonight!” By Faye McCord
I want you to know, which I know that you do, how very much I love & miss you. My heart aches everyday. I long to see your sweet smile your beautiful face, your dry sense of humor and the your sweet smell. I cry everyday for you. Even though my life is full it is so empty. You are not here to share all the good things with. You are not here to make me truely smile. You are not here to make my life complete. Even though I haven't lit a candle for you in a while know that you were never far from my mind. Unfortunately, I have to go on for your sisters. There is not a day that I do not wish you home. This broken heart of mine will never heal, my eyes will never be dry for my baby girl was taken from me. My memories that we have shared are so vivid in my mind. I still can hear the sweet sound of your voice in my head. I feel your presence near me everyday. I feel the love you have for me within my heart. I just want you to come home Stefanie Suzanne. This is not normal for you to have gone before me. I am not supposed to feel this pain. It is so undescribeable. There is nothing you can compare to the loss of your precious child. Till we meet again baby girl, I will now & forever keep your memory alive.
