My poem to My Mom:

         Our lives go on without you but nothing is the same.  We have to
         hide our heartache when someone speaks your name.  Sad are the
         hearts that love you, Silent are the tears that fall, Living without
         you is the hardest part of all.  You did so many things for us, your
         heart was so kind and true and when we needed someone, we could
         always count on you.  The special years will not return, when we
         are all     together but with the love in our hearts you walk with us
         forever. Missing you!

         Sariah



                                     Wow  it’s  hard  to  say  goodbye  to  you.    You’re  literally  my
                                     baby  &  sister.      Teresa  and  I  would  always  do  things  with
                                     you when you were a young girl.  We took you to Disneyland
                                     together,  Knott’s  Berry  Farm  took  lots  of  pictures  and  we
                                     had a blast.  We treated you like our  baby, and you gave us
                                     your love too.  I was an athlete and when I came home from
                                     school after a long practice, you would be waiting for me on

                                     the sofa with a blanket and pillow.  You would put my head
         on  your  lap  and  rock  me  to  sleep.    Cute  things  like  that  made  us  bond.    I  never
         expected you to leave this earth before me, but this is the hand we were dealt.  I
         will be there for your family always and keep you in my heart always tell Mama I
         said hello.

         Smooches, Arnesia

                          Dearest Auntie / Sister:

                          I  sit  down  to  write  with  a  heart  both  full  yet  aching  with  missing
                          you.   Though your  physical  presence  was  brief  your spirit lives on
                          within  me  forever.  You  were  my  first  friend  and  companion
                          throughout  childhood.    The  one  I  shared  my  secrets  with.    I
                          remember  our  giggles  turning  to  late  night  talks,  innocent  days
                          becoming  life  complex  journeys.    We  got  through  it  all;  our  bond
                          remained strong, sister-to-sister, heart to heart.  Now as I navigate
        this life without you, I struggle to find joy or meaning.  The pieces of my broken
        heart  yearn  for  your  hugs  your  smiles  and  the  comfort  only  a  sister’s  love  can
        bring.  Though I cannot see you I know you watch over me from above.  Giving me
        strength  during  sorrow,  peace  during  turmoil.    One  day  we’ll  be  together  again

        and have eternity to make up for lost times.  Until then you remain in my heart
        and mind my heavenly sister. I love and miss you dearly.

        Your loving earthly sister,
        Jessica
