Waddell,
With Mother's Day rapidly approaching us my thoughts are heavy with you. I
feel you son stronger than ever these days. I know you're near I truly
feel you son. You are never far from my heart. Everything I do is with you
in mind. I can still see that brilliant smile. Boy do I miss you! Mother's
Day just isn't the same without you. Love, Mom

Happy Easter Son,
On this Easter Sunday my thoughts are with you and dad. You know that this
is the day that Jesus did his Passover to be with his father. I love you
son so much and my heart is still aching for you. Love, Mom

Waddell,
Happy New Years! I believe that this will be a year to remember more so
than any other year without you. A year of constant change as well as
lessons to be learned. I love you son. Love, Mom

Waddell,
As we bring in the New Year my heart is heavy with thoughts of you. Lately
you have been constantly on my mind more than usual. I miss you so much
son. Another year without you is not a thought that I'm relishing. I know
this is a year of a lot of change for me. Sometimes I wonder how in the
world do I make it daily without you? You know you were my world. Happy
New Year Son! Love, Mom

Waddell,
During this Christmas season you are forever on my mind. Family and
friends have been talking about you quite a bit. Nothing brings me more
pleasure than to hear about your little antics when you were younger. You
were a true miracle and I am proud to be your Mom. I'm looking forward to
the new year so that I can begin doing some of the things that we had
discussed. Your dreams are inside of me too, I will never forget them. I
love you Son. Love, Mom

Waddell,
Another Thanksgiving is amongst us again. I can't believe the year has
gone by so quickly. Keeping with our tradition I was at our usual meeting
place today saying special prayers and feeling close to you. I miss you
son so much, and you are always in the forefront of my mind. As I stood in
the cemetery noticing how barren the trees look without there leaves I
thought how poignant my heart feels barren without you here beside me. I
love you son always. You were my dream come true. Love, Mom
20 August, 2001
My Dear Son,
I love you so much. On we know the kind of relationship that we had, late
night talks about everything yet nothing. I miss your teasing and the bass
of your laughter. The simple things seem to stand out in my mind. Things
that I love to stare at, for example; your eyebrows and the whiteness of
your teeth. I long for you daily just to catch a sent of your essences
would do my heart wonders. I want nothing more than to hold you close in
my arms. This time of year only sadden me because I lost the most precious
gift bestowed to me. You are forever in my heart. Love,Mom

Waddell,
Marking your third year anniversary on this August 23rd. only saddened my
heart. I thought with time that these anniversary dates would become more
endurable. How wrong I was, my heart is burden and more heavy with grief
than ever before. I guess that goes to prove that their are no substitutes
for the real thing. Only joy will come once we are reunited. The
understanding of why the good go young will be a source of contentment. I
love you son and I'm always humbly grateful that you were a part of my
life. You Waddell made my life whole, I loved nothing more than being your
Mom. You son are forever in my heart. Love, Mom

Dear Waddell,
The passage of time has not made me think of you less often. I can
still hear your voice and your laughter. I can still see your handsome
face.
You were a shining light while you were here on earth -- to your family,
to your friends, and to all who met you.
I love you and miss you very much.

Waddell,
On this day July 23rd, one month before your three year anniversary my
heart is so heavily burden with missing you. You are forever in my heart
and in the forefront of the family's mind. When I was at the cemetery
today and crying so uncontrollably I felt your presents. At that precise
moment a steady rain began to pour. We knew instinctively that it was you
crying along with us. Our little family longing to be together again. Life
certainly hasn't been the same without you. I go on daily cause I wake up
daily. You were such a major part of my life. I still miss that boyish
smile of yours. I love you son. Love Mom

Waddell,

always. You are always in my heart and thoughts. Though you have been gone
now a couple of years it seems like yesterday that I was holding you in my
arms. I miss you so much son. You will always live in my heart. Love, Mom

Waddell,
This Easter season has me longing for you as always. As you well know

my shoulder. I certainly felt you during those most trying times. I love
you son. I'm sure granddad thanks you for all of your support. You live in
my heart and thoughts always. Love, Mom
18 December, 2000
Waddell,
On this Christmas Day you are still right here as always nestled in your
mother's heart. I miss you so much son. I can't even imagine how I have
made it this long without you. I remember how much you always enjoyed
Christmas as a little person. The joy in your heart and the excitement in
your eyes made every gift worthwhile. I miss shopping for you. I miss your
smile, and the sound of your voice. You are very much loved. Love, Mom
23 November, 2000
Happy Thanksgiving Son,
On this day your twenty-seventh month of departure, this holiday is still
painful as ever to spend without you. I can't help but to smile when I ask
myself what do I have to be thankful about on this Thanksgiving Day which
also marks your anniversary date. What immediately comes to mind is the
thought of how grateful and truly blessed I am to have had you as a part
of my life. You have taught me so much about loving and caring for others
in your unique and special ways. I miss our long confabs and your bright
sunny smile. Waddell you are always in the forefront of my mind and I
carry you forever in my heart. Love Always, Your Mom
23 August, 2000
Waddell,
On this the second year that you made your transition it seems harder yet
to accept that you are truly gone. I've spent just about everyday at the
cemetery this month reminiscing about you & me and the closeness we've
shared. That my son hasn't changed. I still don't want to believe that
that you are never coming back to your mother's arms. They are just not
the same without you to hold. I only wish that we can once again be
reunited. Life is just going through the motions without you. You are
forever in my mind, heart, soul and spirit. Your essence is the fiber I
rely on just to make it through the day. I love you son. Love, Mom

I love you Waddell: Aunt Shani
Psalm 23:
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in
green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my
soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil:
'for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou
preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou
annointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and
mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the
house of the Lord for ever.

Waddell,
This is marking the twenty-second month of your transition. I can't
believe that this much time has passed already. It seems like only
yesterday you were in my arms. You are always in my thoughts as well as
being close in my heart. I am so very lonely for your presents' and their
is simple no substitute for you. I love you son.

Happy Birthday, Waddell!
Oh how I wish you were here so I could wish you a happy birthday in
person! On this your 25th birthday the pain is just as great; we don't miss you any less.
But my fond and joyful memories of you and remembering how much you
enjoyed celebrations of all kinds will warm my heart and make me smile on your birthday.

Happy Birthday Son,
Waddell, this would have been your twenty-fifth birthday. I miss you this
year more than last. It is hard to phathom another year without you. You
however, remain nestled in my heart. I'm grateful for the timed we
shared, but I shelfishly wanted more. It breaks a mother's heart to loose a
son that she loves so much. I still wish for a speedy reuniting for us.
You have brought me such joy and my life hasn't been the same without you.
All my thoughts focus around you. I LOVE YOU SON!!! Love, Mom
13 May, 2000
Waddell,
On this Mother's Day I miss you more than words can express. You are never
far from my heart. I miss us being together on this day, you know you
always made it so special for me. I love you son. Love, Mom
20 April, 2000
Waddell,
As we enter this Easter Sunday you are forever on my mind. As you mark
your twentieth month of transition, I couldn't help but notice it is on
Easter Sunday. This is the same day the bible says Jesus ascended into
heaven. I think of you constantly and my arms ache to hold you. It is
still hard for me to conceive that you are truly gone. You will however
never be gone from my heart.
Love,
Mom

Hi, Sweetie!
I finally found the website and I am so happy. I can now leave you notes
and such without someone moving them or leave you flowers without someone
throwing them around. I still miss you SO MUCH. It is hard to beleive
it will be 2 years in August. It doesn't seem that long ago to me. I have
good days, bad days but mostly I have okay days. I wish I could help your
mother. She has helped me more than she knows. talking to her helps me
although I do not think I return that. But I do hope I help at least a
little. I Love You, JAY!!!!!!!
I Love You, Always,
Tara

you as much as ever. You were certainly not forgotten by the family during
the holiday season. My thoughts are always with you. You are the stars
that sparkle in my eyes now when I speak of you. I love you so dearly son
and just thinking about you brings me joy and a sense of contentment. Yet
I still long to hold you close to my heart for you will always be my baby.

Waddell,
As we enter into this new holiday season, my heart grieves for you today
more than ever. I know we made a promise that no matter where we were in
life that we would always spend Thanksgiving together. I think of you
everyday, but especially today. I really don't feel like I have a lot to
be Thankful for but I am grateful for the twenty-three years we shared.
I'll see you at the cemetery so that we will spend our Thanksgiving
together as promised. I tried so hard not to cry today, I suppose I'm not
strong enough yet. I love you son. Love always, Mom
23 August, 1999
Son,
Today marks one year since you made your transition. It is difficult to
believe a year has passed by so quickly. You are forever in my heart and
prayers Exactly one year today you made your transition. You have touched
and changed the lives of many. I have talked with many people who have
shared how you touched their lives so profoundly. You are a good son
(Jay.) You have been a mother's dream come true. You were always loved and
always wanted. That's why it is difficult to understand why you had to
leave so soon. I do believe that one day we will all be reunited. I live
for that day. I also believe that mom has taken you under her wings. You
are greatly loved and missed son, I do believe that you are in heaven.
Until we meet again and are united as one you will remain forever in my
heart. Love, Mom

Waddell, on this the first anniversary of the day you said good-bye for
the final time, I find myself thinking about you, about the joy you
brought those of us who loved you, and it warms my heart. We may never
know why you were taken away so soon but I feel very thankful that we have
many fond memories of you. You were one of a kind and you will always
live in our hearts and memories.

Waddell,
You are constantly on my mind. I can't stop thinking about you or stop
missing you. You are the love of my life and I will never let your spirit
die. Even though we are coming upon the one year anniversary date of your
death I still can't believe that you are truly gone. My life has been like
walking through a cloud. All that has happen in this pass year seems so
unreal. My constant prayer is to be able to join you. I still want to look
out for you, comfort, and care for you. I want you to always know that you
are dearly loved. Forever in my heart, Mom
23 June, 1999
Waddell,
Today marks the tenth month of our separation. It is still a very painful living without you. I will never let your spirit die. You live in my heart
forever. I'm sit at my computer at the time of your death ten months ago.
I love you Waddell more than ever I miss you so much. I'm trying to be
strong until we can meet again. Love, Mom
19 June, 1999
Waddell,
The days are very difficult without you. I didn't realize how big a part
you played in my life. I find myself constantly thinking about you. Often
it brings tears to my eyes, because you are missed so dearly. Other times
I smile because you were such a joy in my world. I never want your spirit
to die. I still can't help praying for your well-being and safety. I love
you son. Mom
04 June, 1999
