Light a Candle for a Loved One




At the rising of the sun and at its going down,
We remember them.

At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of Winter,
We remember them.

At the opening of buds and in the rebirth of Spring,
We remember them.

At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of Summer,
We remember them.

At the rustling of leaves and the beauty of Autumn,
We remember them.

At the beginning of the year and when it ends,
We remember them.

As long as we live, they too will live;
for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.

When we are weary and in need of strength,
We remember them.
When we are lost and sick at heart,
We remember them.
When we have joys we yearn to share,
We remember them.
When we have decisions that are difficult to make,
We remember them
When we have achievements that are based on theirs,
We remember them.

As long as we live, they too shall live,
for they are a part of us, as we remember them.

You were so young with your whole life ahead of you. I am so sorry i couldn't take away your pain and make everything ok for you. I knew you were hurting but i never could have imagined just how bad things had gotten for you. Amy is so lost without you and little Cali will never get to meet her daddy. I just hope you know that you were loved and now you are deeply missed.


Fathers don't act that way, fathers dont decide enough is enough and then go. Never thought i was like you, but with every day it becomes more apparent... i am just like you.

I love you dad! I'm sorry the pain was too great, I do understand although lots of people do not. I'm trying not to follow you...I hope to see you someday when this life is over. Love Always, Your Daughter

I know that you did not take your own life. Depression took your life.
I will always love you and I am sorry that I could not comfort your pain.
Know that you will always be part of my life. Forever in my heart.

I didn't really know you, Dez...but I thought it would be kinder to add your name to this site rather than let everyone forget you....
The following was a post I made on the Guest book for Dez on the News-Journal website.

".... I never knew you.
But I did indeed cry at your wake.
You were an attractive girl.
During the wake, I remember saying to no one in particular, "I never knew her."
And Coral, who was walking by at the time, said "Neither did I."
It's odd, how you can say something at times of chaos, and someone you don't know will answer.
I can't say that I don't understand what you did....I've made a half-assed attempt at suicide before, and I've self-injured. But I've never heard of someone who, going to the same school as me, living in the same state, had succeeded.
Grief does strange things to people....you made this obvious, Desiree."

I know this life hurt you so mcuh. I just wish you could have held on a little longer. You always promised you wouldnt go this way. You told me that I couldnt hurt myself...even if i only did it for you. You have no idea how we miss you. Im just so glad we had our time together. I miss you every day.


Derik, You were a friend to us all and we love you dearly. There is nothing that we wouldn't have done to help, we all wish we could have. We miss you more than you will ever realize. I think about you everyday and remember all the fun times we had together. Running around that big track, playing on the play ground and in the sand, going to shows and you dragging me into that dance pit with you. Danging isn't the same with out you. You were my hug buddy, your hugs fixed everything and made the whole world right again. No one will ever be like hugging you. I can't wait till I get to heaven with you so that I can have some more of them. I better be a good girl so I can see you again, I'll do that for you, I'd do anything for you. I would take your spot in a heart beat if it was possible. Take care of your self up there, i miss you like crazy bro, I LOVE YOU my dear.

Ashley was a torture soul who died way to soon at her own hand. I miss her everyday, and though we were apart when she died, I miss her everyday.

The hate of others is so strong and you were both just a casuality of something so cruel. I love you both. I won't ever forget either of you.
Sept. 1986 - Sept. 13 1999

You were very special to me, but I still don't understand after all these years. I miss you and love you dearly. I would have done anything to have been able to stop the bullet you shot to end your precious life, you'll always be with me.


Teapot, I miss you so much. Love you always Lunntte the Clown.

She was a really great person. She was beautiful inside and out. Her smile was beautiful. We all love and miss her very much. Not a day goes by that she isn't thought of.
1978 - 1999

Bruce on The Lose, Sweetie...I miss you daily. I miss your big, brown eyes, and your mischevious smile. I am sad that I could not do more to prevent your death. I am not mad at you, I just miss you. Rest in peace in the arms of Jesus now. We are all trying to better ourselves in your honor. Bless you, Harley Dude!!!
