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.

| 2/12/88 - 6/21/05 There is not a single day that goes by that I don't think of you and your loving ways. You were kind to all, big and small, weak and strong. You were a brilliant 17 yr old who would have grown into a brilliant man. You were and still are loved by many. Many more than you ever realized. Each and every day, I read your final letter to us all. The last line, it lingers in my head to this day. An excerpt from a song, but powerful nonetheless. "I left my heart open, but you didn't understand..." I will never forgive myself for not understanding or being able to help. Nathaniel, you were my one true love, and I will never forget finding you lying there, blood everywhere and a gun in your hand. You were in emotional pain and you found comfort in suicide. Maybe now your pain is gone. I hope you dont feel that I am copying you by cutting myself, I'm just trying to release the pain. I love you, baby. "For all eternity you and I" - "Edge of Eternity", our song. | march 19, 1965 - july 26, 2005 Daddy, I never could understand why u would hurt urself so. All the struggles and pain through the years u forced urself and us to endure. I know u are gone now, forever. nothing is ever going to be the same. they ruled ur death an accident, but i guess we will never really know because those of us who really knew you known how bad u wanted to go..now the struggles that lead to ur death are evading my soul. my favorite food is valium, i wash it down with crown, each nite before bed i carve myself, and wish i were dead. hear that dad, i wish i were dead. u think my pain is bad... u should see ur sons. we miss u everyday and love u anyway. crystal | November, 23/1991 - March, 14/2005 Doug was the most amazing person I ever knew. Earlyer this year he hung himself because no matter what he did he couldn't make me happy, and that was all he ever wanted. So no matter how hard I try, it's hard to belive I didn't "technicly" kill him. There was noone like him in this world, he was the best thing that ever happened to me. I miss him more than ever. I love you. |

Unni... I don't understand why you did what you did. I don't think anyone does. You weren't the only one, but you never knew about me, did you? We all hurt, and I miss you. I hope to God you're somewhere safe... | 17-03-1991 - 08-11.2005 Maya you will always be in my heart, I won't rest till I'm with you in heaven.. I will keep fighting and be strong for you.. I love you baby girl.. Your still my little angel.. I will love you till the end of time.. | NOVEMBER-8-1988 OR 1987 - OCTOBER-2-2005 I WOULD WISH TO SAY TO HIM IS THAT HE IS SADLY MISSED BY ALL HIS FAMILY.

Rich, I know you are not related to me, but you were practically my father, and I can't believe left me like this. I miss you a lot. I don't know why you did this to many people, but I want you to know that I was there that day, the day when we all knew. I want you to know, even if you are dead and can't read this, that I loved you as much as I would my own father. I love you, and rest in piece. Becca | Wish you were here with me now. You were a true star.. xxx | December 7, 1989 - December 4, 2005 I never knew you as well as I would have liked to. I wish I had known you were feeling this way I would have tried to help you if I could. You were an inspiration to us all, and you'll never be forgotten. Rest in peace, I hope you're in a better now. |

| September 10, 1990 - June 8, 2005 I've memorized your letter by heart. No one knows what it meant but us. You always said I was the strongest, I guess you were right. I'm sorry, I'm sorry because I cry every night. And i really didn't mean that to rhyme, but like you said "love can only bring out the best."People wonder about my tears but I think they already know. But they will never know how we felt and only I will know how you felt. I love you, and those words will always mean the same thing. | April 7th, 1989 - December 7th, 2005 You were such a beautiful person, honey, and I only wish there was a way we could have made you see this. I hope that wherever you are now, you can be free from everything that made you so unhappy in life... Anorexia stole you from yourself and from those around you, and in the end, it drove you to take your own life. You are very much loved and missed, and I hope that one day we can all see you again... | DK i no you used to think that nobody liked you or nobody wanted you or that you thought you didnt belong in this world but guess what you did.people at WSQ miss you. we have put a memorial up for you i miss you so mush so does everyone else specially peter danny jack ceri alex(i think he misses you the most) oh yer btw weve put your uniform in a frame along wit all of our tapes yu would have got CPL last week if you were here and alex told me to put on this post that he wated to be with you ever since you were with peter . have you ever wundered why he always was around you and always talking to you?? wel thats why well were all putting muney to help you parents with your funeral etc and the core has recognised you aswell which is a great honer. you were the best WSQ we ever had miss you soooooo much kid love from all WSQ your friends and family we all wish you were still her R.I.S.P XXXXX |

| october 15, 1987 - september 13, 2002 you may be gone but i still love you.i heard somewhere that if you keep crying for the person that has died from this strugle that they feel they have to say they are sorry for causing the loved one so much pain. i am sorry for draging it on, but i cant seem to let you go. you are always in my heart and mind. you are my heaven in life and death. |
