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.

I miss you so much an cant believe youre gone. All you wanted was to be loved but noone loved you back the way you wanted we both have had a ruff life an had the urge to end it you went first im so sorry ill be with you soon, i promise im killing myself in a few days lexy. i love you. youve taught me alot an made me smile =/ | My recent best friend lost her best friend to self injury. She cared very deeply for him and I can still see the sorrow in her eyes sometimes from his death. She loved him, and when memorial day rolls around, she gets extremely quiet and sad because that was the day he killed himself. I wish there was a way that I could ease her pain for her. She is my best friend and I know how much he meant to her. They actually started self injury together, but after his death she stopped. However, I have found myself in a downward spiral of self injury. I am slowly recovering, but it is a long road. When I see how many have died of self injury, I know that I could never put those who cared about me through that. I may lose a few battles, but I will eventually win the war. To Keith, and to my best friend Bri, who still mourns a wonderful friend. May anyone who has suffered this kind of loss find healing and comfort when they need it the most... | my best friend. my first crush. hung himself after years of torturing himself with what no one else thought. i saw him as perfect. and now i am lost with no one to turn to. i can only hope that you are finally okay. i love you steve. |

Hey, Josh I never did get to meet you, but Margie and Destiny did. I hope you know Margie was in love with you. I've heard some pretty awesome stuff about you. Robbery gone bad, my ass. He shot you on purpose, and didn't get any jail time. Well, you're in a better place now (I hope). Well, I just wanted to say that Margie loves you and misses you, and so does everybody else. You know Dest goes and puts flowers on your grave? You'd be 21 this year...18 is too young to be murdered. Well, at least you don't have to deal with any shit anymore. ~Becca (Margie's sister's best friend) | You were the best friend I could ever wish for. I know you're looking down on me and always will be... I miss you alot and I will always have a special place for you in my heart. Love Natasha. | I want you to know i still have your picture. I still love you, and i don't blame you for the way you left. I now understand how hard it was for you. I'm still living so that you may live too. We'll meet again someday. I hope your at peace now. Love always, Sue x. |

| Erik | Morgan | bryce herrera |
I know you went through difficult times, but if you only spoke a little more. Your eyes were the only source to speak your suffering, and everything you did, well...I wish I knew sooner. It wasn't your fault... and I will always love you. | 2005 sorry i didn't talk to you as much after music camp sorry you felt you had no way out sorry i couldn't help you more sorry you had to hurt yourself but most of all sorry to your family who lost a son at the age of 20... | December 25, 1991 - September 28,2006 Everyone loved you Bryce. any and everyone that layed eyes on you. I know you had hard times and you will always be in our hearts, but we are so confused about why. I know you know Amber is doing much better then the month after you passed, but i can tell in her eyes that any second shes in a picture shes thinking about you. She misses you alot and i know u realize that, but you didnt think about how many people need you. How many people relyed on you for so much. You are so greatly missed by everyone. I wish i could have known you better. -Bailey |

I didn't really know you. But you meant the world to heather. Even though she used to complain to me all the time about how you wouldn't leave her alone. She loved you. And if there is an after-life, please guide her to a better life. 'Cause she's gong to end up like you. dead and gone. I'm sorry. | 1983 - 2006 I know a lot of people would probably hate me for doing this, as I didn't know you too well. But you taught me a lot of things. You taught me to try and live on. The day I found out you had killed yourself I cried all day. I've never felt so much pain and hurt in my entire life. I would have so liked to have met you one day and hugged you, but now I can't. I know you wre struggling so much hun and I hope that wherever you are, you are happy. Love you. | possibly one of my best friends in the world. I will miss him forever, but I know he's better off now...my only question is why did he leave ME here? |

| Daddy (Chris) | Emily Keyes | Chris Zorno |
I just wished you holded on and got the help that you needed. You were and always be my hero. Miss you dad | Emily was a friend who supported me in my "struggles" and in return I supported her in hers. Her life was brutally stolen from her by a man who instilled fear in the hearts of many students at my school on September 27, 2006. Unfortunately Emily never saw the end of that day and it burns and aches in my heart. He stole a friend an only friend without her I am more lost than ever before and I don't know how to go on living anymore. I love you Emily and I will NEVER forget!!! | He was a brother and a close friend to me. He struggled for years with the death of his older brother and sister but in the end it was too much for him... he took his own life on December 27, 2006. Life is now hopeless on all counts. After the loss of Emily I didn't know if I could go on and then the loss of Chris... all is lost and the hope of ever seeing the light is gone... I miss you Chris life worthless without my two close friends..."I love you guys" |

| 3.2.90 - 11.22.05 I've known you my entire life. You were the one that saved me from myself. And I couldn't even return the favor. You have no idea how much I miss you. Do you miss me too? Maybe one day, I'll see you again. And maybe I'll join you. After you left, nothing makes sense anymore. It's not the same... and it never will be. | 23/07/1989 - 10/04/2006 The first thing I remember was the bloody water and then I seen you and it almost seemed like you where alive. But, you weren't breathing. We used to cut together, me and you. And you promised you would never go too far. I'm sorry. I miss you so much xxx | 11/12/1984 - 12/21/2005 i love ya, bro |

| 10.20.1980 - 05.24.2007 You are the person who I have been thinking of through my whole life. I must believe to see you again if there is another life, somewhere out of this world. | October 30th, 1988 - December 9th, 2006 We wish you were still with us. Just one more day. Just one more smile. We miss you so much... As your deathday moves closer, we continue to grow weaker. We understand why you left. We understand why you won't be here with us on Christmas, or your birthday...We understand. Your life was one nobody should lead. The cutting, the pill popping, the starving; they all helped you through it. But your step-father...God, your step-father. He was the cause for this. He should be dead. Not you. Geminae, we miss you. WE LOVE YOU. We can't say it enough...We will keep you in our hearts, minds, and souls, for as long as they all function properly. | 10/12/1987 - 10/19/2005 You were my everything. Our love for each other ran deep. Too bad your love for yourself ran shallow. You were always so sweet to everyone and I know people took advantage of that. I knew that you were in pain and not being able to make that hurt go away nearly killed me too. I miss you more than you will ever know. I'm so sorry I couldnt save you. You were only 18 with your whole life ahead of you. Sorry you have to miss it. I love you and always will. Rest in peace my love. |
