Happy New Year Angel! As always, we miss you dearly. Keep your eyes on Jared and help me continue to get better so he can come home soon. And now you'll have ANOTHER baby to watch over soon. You'll have fun watching Andrea get big. You always said she was going to be so cute when she's pregnant. I guess now we'll get to find out. Thanks for all the visits lately. I thought the calculator trick was funny, but the commode flushing ordeal at McDonalds was funny too. Andrea tried and tried to get it to repeat but it wouldn't, so we figured it had to be you! And Gale said either you or Britt visited Tarah and turned on her bedroom light at 4 am (what other explanantion can there be for all these weird happenings???) Well sweetie, I'm going to go. Just wanted to say Happy New Year to my baby. Love you, forever and a day! Love, Mom (and Dad)

I love you guys so much!!)

Happy Xmas in heaven Lisa. We are both thinking of you today, as we do often. Even though we were not lucky enough to have met you in life, we can tell from all your friends and familys messages to you that you really were a lovely person. I was reading a poem by the famous English poet Thomas Hardy a while back and it reminded me of you...i think it is saying that a persons spirit is more likely to be around friends and family and places of enjoyment, rather than be in a cold grave...I think thats more than likely true...the poem is called :- 'Her haunting ground'..:- 'can it be so ? It must be so, that visions have not ceased to be, in this the chiefest sanctuary of her whose form we used to know, Nay, but her dust is far away, and where her dust is, shapes her shade, if spirit clings to flesh, they say : yet here her life parts most were played ! Her voice explored this atmosphere, her foot impressed this turf around, her shadow swept this slope and mound, her fingers fondled blossoms here, and so I ask, why, why should she haunt elsewhere, by a slighted tomb, when here she flourished sorrow-free, and, save for others, knew no gloom ? Anyway, it makes me think about you Lisa...and how everyone says you were such a happy person...Happy Xmas from me and Carmella !

Hello my sweet angel (I love writing here. I like the song that plays while I do) Merry Christmas! It must be grand to spend Christmas in Heaven! It's very quiet for dad and I ths Christmas Eve- just us and the animals (although I suspect you have been "visiting" us. Sugar and Katie have been barking all week at "nothing"- nothing that dad and I can see anyway. Grandma said Muffy has been doing the same thing at her house. I told her it was probably you visiting. And what was up with my calculater at work the other day??? Good Heavens, it just started printing and spitting out paper all by itself. I'm glad I had three other witnesses or no one would have believed me. I brought the paper home as a souvenier *haha*)... What a beautiful nephew you have now! Jared is a very pretty baby, and I sure hope you are watching out for him. We have tons of people praying for him. Erica and Scott are out at Children's Hospital with him. I offered to go to Pittsburgh and sit with him so they could come home and do the Christmas thing with Dalton, but they didn't want to leave him. Be his Guardian Angel and take good care of him, okay? And be with Andrea and Shaun tomorrow as they fly home from their belated honeymoon in Cancun. Well, sweetie, I'll get off here now. Take care and have a great Christmas. Love Always! XOXO Mom (and Dad)

Lisa, It has been so long since I've been to this site (I'm sorry..) The other day one of my friends from high school passed away and I haven't quite figured out what to do yet. I guess I'm still in shock..? Well, if you see him please take care of him, he was a really great guy. I'm going to start training for your race next summer. I always say that..haha! It usually doesn't happen, but I'll try! I'm actually going to RUN it next year (I promise!) Ok, well I wanted to wish you an early "Merry Christmas" and I hope all of your family and friends are doing well! You all are in my thoughts as always..Love, Tori

Wow, it has been quite a while since I have wrote in here. I have surely not forgot about you. I was actually flooded by the thought of you when I mailed your mother's Christmas card. Cannot believe it is almost Christmas. I hope your Christmas is great up in heaven. :)

Hey Lisa---I know I don't write very often. I feel so bad about that, but that doesn't mean I don't think about you. I am a senior at Towson now, and I still have pictures of you in my apartment. I still go to sleep at night and remember the last time I saw you. I remember you at soccer practice the night you died. I came for your race in July. I came from Baltimore, but I didn't mind at all. I'll never miss it Lisa. But you know that. Sometimes with all of the changes adulthood brings, I long for the times when we played spring soccer together and sang the pepsi theme song and just acted so silly. You'll never know how much your short life touched mine and how much you still influence me everyday. I tell people about you, and how you were my friend and everything. I swear to you I will sit down one day andwrite everything about Westmar's fallen. It's my duty. I've done mostly everything with the memory of you in my mind. And I am about to graduate college because you continue to inspire me. Thank you Lisa. I am sorry I don't write to you enough. It's just hard for me to sit down and think about it. I thought about you all day on the anniversary. Well Lis...Lush ya babe. Take care...I'll talk to you again soon. Bless your family too. And don't worry becuase I told Steve and I meant it I would never miss your race. I don't care where I am living or what I am doing. Your memory is worth it. Love ya girl.

Hey Sweet Pea! I thought I would write you before I go to bed. Yesterday was your sister's wedding day, so we have been so busy! But the day went wonderfully well. Today dad and I went to the church to clean up the mess. Dad found a penny on the floor. I smiled and told him about the "Pennies from Heaven" poem, that when you find a penny on the ground, it means an angel put it there so you would know she was thinking of you. I said you left it so we would know you had been there for Ann's special day. I took it home and gave it to Ann. She's going to keep it. She misses you. She added a sprig of "forget me nots" to eveyone's bouquets in honor of her bridesmaid in heaven, and I got to light a candle on the piano in memory of you.... I heard about Lauren's brush with death last week (Lauren I'm so glad you are okay!) and how somehow her car magically accelerated to get her out of harm's way. How awesome that happened just yards from your and Eddie's graves. Everyone says you and Eddie were her guardian angels that night. *smile* (I also noticed that Lauren left you some Jolly Ranchers at your gravsite on the 20th)... Our friend Gary made it to the wedding and stopped to visit you beforehand. That was so nice. The last time he was in the area was for your funeral. It was nice he could make it for a happy occasion... Well baby I have to get to bed. We all love and miss you. Love, Mom XOXOXO

Swanton, MD USA - Saturday, October 01, 2005 at 21:23:46 (PDT)

Lisa- I just wanted to thank you and Eddie for being with me tonight. I think it was no coincidence that everybody i saw told me you guys were with me! The first thought when I got out of my car was that you guys had been there, and that you made sure I was safe. I can honestly say I have never been so scared in my life, and I am sure that if you guys hadn't been there I may not have made it to safety. I am glad that I was close enough to you guys that I could walk up and see you..again, thank you so much! I know that you were my guardian angels tonight! I love you both!

Hey Lis! Sorry I am a day late. I wanted privacy when I came to visit you and yesterday I didn't have any. Another year gone by...Its crazy to think of it. I still think about you the same as every other day. How is heaven? My grandmother is up there with you now. I bought her house. Looks like I will be moving back to Westernport. I am excited. As you know I am engaged now. Two years until the big day but it will go by quicker than we all know. Hope you will come. You can be my angel bridesmaid. I would love that. I was reading other entries and it appears you gave so many people great memories. I know I sure have tons. All the four wheeler rides and such. Remember when you, Ann, and I had that car wash? That was so fun!!! My greatest memory is skating in the basement. That was always the greatest time. I miss you like crazy. I haven't seen your Mom or Dad in forever but I think about them often. Want them to know they are great people and I miss seeing them. Well I guess I will go. I will try to come more often. I wish I could write everyday. Miss ya Lis. Love ya!

Hello baby, Happy 5th Anniversary in Heaven. I'm sure you're having a good time. We think of you all the time, and miss you dearly. I was down to your grave earlier today but dad couldn't handle it, so it stayed home. But you know he's missing you like crazy... We're busy busy busy, getting ready for Ann's wedding. Whew, what a lot of work. The week before Erica's wedding I felt you all around the house. Hopefully you'll pop in to see me this time too. *smile* ... Well sweetie, you know me, I could talk to you for hours on here, but I won't.Just know how much I love and miss you. It brightens my day to know that so many people remember you on your special day. I love you Scridge, forever and a day. XOXO Mom

Hey lisa, i just had to stop by here today and say hi. I'm sure today is a hard one for your family, but i'm sure they also know that you're looking over them. I'd wanted to visit you today, but as you know i'm in baltimore going to school. Maybe i'll make it up this weekend. It's weird that even though i didn't know you in your time here, i still feel a connection with you and think about you. Not to be rude, but i guess it makes me appreciate my time here even more, because we never know when it's our turn... God bless you lisa and your family. - Sincerly, Andy

Hi Lois and Dan...Nancy and I just wanted you guys to know that we are thinking of you and Lisa today. I have to apologize for the junk that get's posted on here sometimes as I am sure that you see it.

I know that today is a special day for you and your family as it is with us and Heather, we just want to wish you the best today and I am sure that Lisa is with you every second of the day (as she is everyday).

Hey Lisa. So, another year has gone by..It's crazy! I can't believe it's been 5 years! Last night,I was looking through the scrapbook I made for you and Eddie. I had to laugh at some of the stuff. I was thinking of all the crazy things we did, and all the fun we had. Dan and I are going to go down tonight to visit you! I dont have a root beer barrell yet,lol. I am working on it, but you might have to settle for a jolly rancher. :) I am still so thankful that your family put up with all of our shenanigans (if thats how you spell it) All the times we stayed up late laughing and goofing off, I am sure we kept them awake but nobody ever complained..Those are some of the best memories I have. I am going to try to find the video of all of us goofing off in Tennesse to watch tonight. When we moved, it got packed, and I am not sure where it is. Everytime I watch that I can just remember how goofy and fun you were. It reminds me that the last thing on Earth you would want is for anybody to be sad today..but you'll have to forigve some of us :) It's still hard! But I promise to always make your memory a hapy one. As I have said before, I am sad that you had to go away so soon, but I am so much happier that I had the chance to know you! You truely influenced my life and changed me for the better. You taught me so much about life. Everybody who knew you was touched by you! When I read through the condolences page I realize how many people you've changed. Even people who have never met you. So, thank you for all the ways you have helped me. Thank you for being you :) I love you Lisa!

Hey Lisa hows things up in heaven ? We had a great time at your race in July. It was so good to meet your family, they were so kind to us, and they told us all about you. I know you were there too in some way. We are thinking of you even more now that it is coming up to your accident anniversary. Love you loads Mark & Carmella

I LOST A FRIEND WHO JUST TURNED 21 ON APRIL 19TH AND SHE DIED APRIL 22. I ACTUALLY HAD A BAD WRECK MYSELF AT THE BEGINING OF THE YEAR AND ALMOST DIED SO I JUST WANT TO SAY THERE ARE PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD THAT SHARE IN THE LOSS OF SOMEONE THROUGH A TRAGEDY ESPECIALLY SO YOUNG. TAKE CARE AND MY CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY.

Hey Wade Family, I miss you guys a lot, it's so weird never getting to see you! I am so very sorry I missed the race, but I was traveling through all the New England states for my vacation. I had such a blast. I am sure Lisa wasn't minding that to much. I haven't really had a fun vacation since the one we all took(Danny, Lois, Lisa, Andrea, Kelli, and Me). Man that was so much fun!!! So I am sure she is happy for me, but I do wish that I would have been able to make it. I miss seeing you guys. Tell Erica CONGRATS, I am soooo happy for her. Well, I guess the big wedding is coming soon, I hope everything turns out great. I hope everyting else in your lives are super, and I hope that spider bite gets better, Lois! Trent (my boyfriend) and I are talking about marrage in the near future, pretty excited about that. He said he already has the day picked out. It better be soon, i'm not waiting forever, joke!! Well got to go, im at work so i'm probably not suppose to be doing this, shhhh lets just keep this between us!!! ;)Hope to see you guys soon. Love ya Lisa, miss and think about you every day. Talk to you tonight! Help me with the things I am about to go through, you know what I mean!! Lush ya baby. Can't wait to see you agagin!

I found this site over a year ago by accident however I doubt that it was an accident. When I started to read some of the entries here I sobbed from deep within my heart. I sensed the loss that was felt because Lisa was gone and felt for you all who still had (have) a heart full of love for her & now she was gone. However, I almost envied her because she was where I wanted to be. I wasn't unhappy or suicidal; I just wanted to be with God because I've found so much more in Him than anyone or anything I've found here on earth. I'm still here and that's ok because this is where I am to be and I'll live my life to the fullest until its time.....

Hello sweet pea! Well, nobody's written since the last time I did, and I'm sick of seeing that entry when I come here everyday, so I'm writing again. I've been wanting too anyway. So much has happened this month. Your 5th annual 5K Run went really well. Steve does such a great job on it! Plus it was so nice having the Michael Phelps Olympic flag and the Mia Hamm soccer jersey for door prizes!... Mark and Carmella came to the USA for the race. They spent a week here and we had the best time! We're hoping they get to come again soon... I got bit on the calf by something (a spider maybe) the other day, and now I'm off work a few days and on an antibiotic. It must have got me right on the vein because now it's turning into blood poisoning. I have to go prop up my leg when I get finished here... Gale and I went out for a drink the other day. She needed to vent and we had a good talk. I was also talking to one of your guy friends (I won't embarass him by mentioning his name). He started crying and told me how much he misses you. Se stops at the cemetary to see you often, he said, and always brings you a rose. I was so touched by his confession. I hope he "heals" soon... Erica got a new sonogram. I suppose you already know that the little grandaughter I was wanting turns out to be a boy. Oh well, do you think Scott will mind if dress him up in little girl clothes? *haha*... Well, sweetie, I could talk all day but I need to get off here. I love you and miss you. And I think of you each and every day... Love Always, Mom

Hello to "Grad from BHS in the 70's" from another "Grad from BHS in the 70's" (class of '77) ... Mindy is also a special angel who will never be forgotten. I actually have a picture of her on my wall (Lisa's "Heavenly Friends Wall"... Lisa, Britt, Eddie, Jeff, Mindy, Heather, Chrissy, Melvin... so many, too soon for our liking, but as you say, God has his reasons.) I pray for your family and covet your prayers for us as well. (PS... Our daughter Andrea is good friends with Mindy's brother Justin) ... Hello sweet Lisa. I haven't written is a long time, trying to refrain, but I look every day for new listings. I was so touched by Dub's. I know how much she still hurts for you... So much is going on here. Erica is having a baby in January. Everything seems to be going well this time and she's already getting a little Buddha belly (so cute) Tarah is having a bay too! So you will have two new little ones to protect and watch over... Ann's wedding is fast approaching. I have so much to get done. Hopefully it runs smoothly. I'm working on her gown now (just needed a break so I came here) Your 5K Run is in a few weeks, the 5th annual. Steve is working hard to make it special. Mark and Carmella are coming from England to visit and attend the race!!! And I got an autographed Michael Phelps Olympic flag for a door prize, how neat is that? (It helps that your dad used to date his mom in high school *L*) Well baby, I better go. Love you so much and miss you like crazy! Cant wait to see you again, one sweet day... Love, Mom

My brother Nathan also lost his young daughter Mindy in the late nineties. She was also a student of Westmar High. She was killed in a headon collision almost home on 220. It is so sad to see the young die young. I know the Lord has His reasons. This is such a sweet memory to have in Lisa's honor. Mindy will always be missed also by us all. Tragedy like this makes the remaining family members want a closer walk with the Lord.

Hey Lisa~ I know I haven't wrote to you in a while, but I do a lot of talking (and I am sure you are always listening). Just wanted to tell you how much I love you, and miss you. Well, a lot has happend since I last wrote, so here we go(beleieve me I am going to have to leave a lot out, but I am sure you have been around for all of it, and probably wanting to kick my butt for most of the stuff I have done, but just in case). As you already knew I started dating Timmy soon after you passed, and as you also know we have broken up. I know your thinking good move, right. Boy, if you were here right now you would have already punched my nose. So, currently I am dating Trent Thomas, and he is so sweet and loves me dearly, believe it or not. We live together in Frostburg, in a lovely church/house (hopefully not for long). Atleast I am going to church though, hehe! I don't think it is going to be to much longer until my big wedding, and you better be there. Just so you know you would have been the one standing right beside me , I know I can't see you, but you better still be right there. Speaking of weddings I am sure you are excited about Andrea and Josh's wedding. I know I am, and I know they will both be very happy. Also, I have a knew rat terrier, his name is Kujo, he is so cute, but a pain in the ass sometimes. You would have loved him. Lastly I am still at F.U. Bank, but I am not going to be at Keyser after June 6, I am going to Barton. Better hours.

Hey babe, Whats goin on Lisa? Not too much here. I was on the net and I thought I would write something to you instead of talking to you like I do every other day. Change things up alittle. I have been missin the hell out of you since my freshman year girl. I still take out my latin notebook and read it every once in awhile to remind me of how crazy you were. I loved it though, every moment with you was always interesting. You had a certain way with things. I have to say the two things I really miss are our conversations and that great big glowing "look at me" smile. The best smile around girl. I need you to do me a favor too, whisper your mom and sister a hello from me. I haven't talked to either of them in awhile, since I talk to you everyday I figure you can hook me up. Well Lisa it's gettin past my bed time so I think I'm gonna catch some sleep, Ill talk to you soon and see you in my mind. Havea wonderful night. I will alwyas "Lush" you

Hi sweet Lisa, I am so touched by everyone who remembers you, and takes the time to let us know... Andy-Thank you! When I saw your name on your listing I was quite touched and intrigued. Of course I recognized your name right away. It seems like I watched you grow up through the pics on your mom's locker at work. Thank you for thinking of us and Lisa. I'm sure you and her will meet some day (did you ever read "The Five People You Meet In Heaven"? Maybe she'll be one of your five people *smile*) Tell your mom I said hello... Tori, I'm always glad to see entries from you. I'm glad Lacey had someone to be with yesterday. I'm going to make a point to see her soon. I have a book I want her to read ("I'd Rather Laugh" by Linda Richman, it helped me tremendously and I want to use it to help Lacey...Love you Lace!)... Julie-I can always count on you to encourage me. Your entries on this website remind me that Lisa will always be a part of life here on earth. You said you left a gift for Lisa at the cemetary. I don't know if it was the adorable little frog things or the cute little angel, but they were all three so adorable. Thank you for always thinking of Lisa and us... Lauren-*smile* I KNOW you were there to see Lisa on her bday. I found the root beer barrel. Thanks... "Annie Poo"-You're such a loving and faithful sister, always reminding me with your words and deeds just how much you love and miss your little sister. I knew you were putting tulips at the cemetary yesterday, but I noticed later that you also left a bundle on the shoulder of the road where Lisa was hit. I was touched by that, and of course you know I love you so much... Erica, I ran into Scott at the cemetary yesterday and he said you had had a rough night, then when I called you a little later, it was evident by your voice that you weren't having a good day. I love you sweetie, and will always be here for you. (Thanks for taking dad and me out to dinner tonight. It was fun)... Becky-Although we've never met, through your dad I feel like I know you. Thanks for writing to Lisa (and I already knew that Jonathon liked angel food cake too. Can't remember if I read it on his site, or if your dad told me...hmmm-now I'm a little concerned because I like Devils Food cake *haha*)... Jessica-I noticed the flowers that you left for Lisa a week or so ago (read the note, hope you don't mind). I'm so glad you got up the courage to visit her. You were one of her dearest friends. It just seems so fitting that God chose you and Lacey to be the last people Lisa was with. Try to consider it an honor instead of a curse. We love you, Dub... Mark and Carmella-what terrific friends your have become. I don't know what I would do sometimes without your support! Thanks, you two... Brian-Thank you Thank you Thank you for this site! You are a good friend. I cherish you!... Well Leesie, I hope you had a good birthday. We all managed to survive. Now a favor - Look up Duke Davidson. Monday is HIS birthday, his first in heaven. I saw his dad today and he wasn't doing too well. He needs a little help from above. So you and Duke try to send him a heavenly hello, okay? Thanks, I know I can count on you... Oh by the way, did you notice your flower garden? Last fall I filled it with tulip bulbs, and yesterday on your birthday, the FIRST ONE bloomed! Neat huh? Well, sweetie, I'm going to bed, before everyone reading this thinks I've lost my mind, "talking" to you like this. But in my heart I have to believe that you are here, watching over us. You are certainly in our hearts and on our minds, day in and day out... Love you Scridge! XOXO Mom

Lisa, even though i didn't know you i just wanted to wish you a late happy birthday. I saw the memoriam that your family placed in the newspaper for your birthday and since then i have been thinking of you. I found this site and the site your mom made for you. I somehow feel a connection to you; my mom used to work with your mom at the post office and i remember hearing about your death. I'am a year older than you and played soccer for Mount Savage and Beall (consolidation). In reality, we were probably cheering against each other at soccer games; but that doesn't matter now. I wish that i would have had just one chance to meet you. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Happy Birthday Lisa...I am sure that you had a very special day in Heaven and I am sure that a good part of today was spent watching over your mom and dad just to make sure they were doing OK today too...You are a very special Angel and I think of you everyday. To Danny and Lois my heart is with you today as it always is everyday. I hope you are all doing well. Good luck on the upcoming 5K run. Happy Birthday again Lisa...You are missed very much.

Hello, I didn't know you Lisa, but I know that my dad met your mom a few months back. He delivers mail and met your mom at the post office one Saturday.....I wanted to tell you Happy Birthday. I know what it is like to miss someone and love someone as much as everyone does you. I am Jonathan's sister. He is also in heaven with you. Just a heads up....he loves angel food cake too....I hope you have a great birthday. I know I am a few hours late telling you and I am sorry. Can you do me a favor and give my brother a hug for me? thanks a lot.... Becky

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA! I wish I could be in Maryland to visit your place in the cemetery, but I'm sure you know that I thought about you a lot today! Lacey is here with me and Scott, and I know today is hard for her, if you could send her a hug :)--you know we all love you! And judging by all the thunder we had today, you must have had one heck of a bowling game going on ;) at least we know you're celebrating, right? haha! Well, you know if I had one wish in the world, it would be to have met you--because I've heard some amazing stories! So, to Lois, and the rest of your family and friends, I am sending you all my sympathy, and love. And I'm sure you already know how truly blessed you are to have known Lisa. I'm blessed even to know ABOUT her! Thank you for always writing-- I hope you know how much it helps to know that there are such amazing people in this world!! :) Happy Birthday (again), Lisa!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ANGEL IN HEAVEN!! Hey girl, I just wanted to get on here and wish you the happiest of all birthdays. I know I don't get on here and write very often, but that doesn't mean you're not in my heart & thoughts every second, every minute, every hour, of every day! You are the biggest part of me, and I take you with me everywhere I go! It's SOOO hard to believe that you would be 20 years old today...one more year and we would be having one heck of a celebration! =P But, I'm sure you will be doing your celebrating this year with Eddie, Britt, Grandma, Aunt Dot, and everybody else you love in Heaven. (Which...knowing you, would be everyone!) I hope you have a great time, but just remember that your family & friends down here are missing you like you wouldn't believe, and wishing you could be here with us! You just keep smiling that beautiful smile, that I'm sure lights up heaven like it did any room here on Earth when you walked in, and know that there isn't a thought in my mind or a beat in my heart that doesn't have you in it! Happy Birthday baby sis, I'll be loving and missing you until I see that beautiful smile again! LOVE ALWAYS AND FOREVER ~*~ ANDREA ~*~

Swanton, MD USA - Thursday, April 21, 2005 at 07:46:02 (PDT)

Hi sweetie! Happy (Earth Day) Birthday! Well, a little early. Your birthday isn't until tomorrow, but I wanted to be sure to be the first to say it! (Hopefully you'll be remembered, it's hard to believe you've been in heaven for almost five years!) And it's hard to believe you would be 20 tomorrow! I would give anything to see how you would have matured since you were 15. I'm sure you would still have your zany personality *smile* ... I found a root beer barrel in the candy dish today. That made me think of you and Lauren, and laugh... Tomorrow we meet with Steve and the teachers at Westmar to select the winners for this year's Lisa Awards at the sports banquet next month... This will be a busy and happy year for us. Of course your 5K Run will be in July (the 5th Annual, Steve is all psyched about that) Did I tell you that Mark and Carmella are coming from England to attend. I can't wait to meet them!... Josh is getting married in August. You didn't get to meet Amy, but I'm sure you would like her. And then Andrea and Shaun are getting married in September - we're having something happy in September, so that we can enjoy that month again, instead of only relating it to your death anniversary. But anyway, that (the preparations) will keep me hopping from now until then. Right now I'm busy trying to design Ann's dress, so that I can start making it. We know how she wants it, it's just getting a pattern created for it. As for Ann, she's busy coming up with unique ideas. The den already looks like "Wedding Central", with all the boxes of flowers, etc that she's ordered. We're going to be giving the UPS man a workout this year. *haha*... Well baby, I guess that's about it. I hope you have a wonderful birthday in heaven. Eat a piece of Angel Food cake for me (strange, nobody liked angel food cake better than you *smile*) We'll be thinking of you tomorrow, and loving and missing you... forever and a day. XOXO "Lush" you always, Mom

Hey there Lisa, I just wanted to tell you an early happy birthday! I hope I can make it down to see you tonight or tomorrow. I have my root beer barrel that I've been waiting to give you! It's been sitting on my desk in my room forever. Anyway, I hope you and all the angels have a wonderful birthday party!

I haven't been to this site in forever, when I see it now it is so amazing how much love is there. Lisa it seems as if your love has touched people all over the world, reading some of the entries i think gives everyone the feeling that they knew you personally. to lois: everyone should know the bond between a mother and her child and you have brought that out in this site, I am now a mother of two little boys and I hope that I will have a bond with them as great as yours is with Lisa. I think about you, your family and Lisa often, I cant ride by without looking to the cemetery or go up the mountain and not glance to your house. Just thinking of you all and praying that you are all doing well. Lisa we all love and miss you, keep watch over us all and I'll always be thinking of you!

Hi sweet baby! How are you honey? I'm sure you're fine. I'm fine, really sore right now from my surgery this morning, but that's to be expected. I was really disappointed, though, when I woke up. I was really really hoping that you were going to "visit" me while I was under the anesthesia. Oh well, wishful thinking I suppose. If you can, please come visit me in my dreams sometime, will you? I miss you so very much. I actually was even hoping that they would "lose me" on the table for a minute, so I could see you before they brought me back. *L* I'm sorry, I know that's morbid, but I just really want to see you. I guess I'll have to wait for my time on earth to be over. But please, if anyway possible, visit me in my dreams. I enjoyed the week of Erica's wedding, when I could feel your presence around me so strongly. I want to feel that again. I guess I better shut up before people think I'm nuts. *L* I love you baby and so does dad. We both miss you so much! Be with dad on his new job, and help them to do well. I'm sure they will, but it doesn't hurt to get a little heavenly help *smile* Well, I'm kind of groggy still so I think I'll go rest. Love you, forever and a day. XOXOXO Mom

Hey there girl! You know it's the little things that make me smile once in a while. I was just checking my e-mail and went to my address book because I haven't looked at it since about 9th grade. Of course, there you were! I just smiled and thought of all the goofy e-mails you used to send me. I wish I would have saved them. I think I've told you before you turned me into a pack rat! I can't get rid of things anymore because I cherrish everything people give me now! Even the goofy notes people write me. By the way one of my friend's left for basic training yesturday, please watch over her and her daughter! I have another favor to ask of you! We all know how you love animals!You always had a way with them. So maybe you can send a message to my dog to behave himself! He keeps chewing stuff up! Maybe he'll listen to you :)

Hey Lisa...I finally got to hear your voice yesterday...and to see you in action (Your Mom mailed us the video)....you were just like I expected...Ive read so many things about what you were really like by all the friends and family that love you so much...and its all true...what a livewire you were ....God sure has his hands full now ! Your 'Sally show' is so funny....now I know why so many people miss you so much. I just want to thank your mom for taking the time and trouble to compile the video for us, and to you lisa for being such a star. I will always smile everytime I play that video...you may have only been here on earth for a few short years, but it seems you had a fantastic time while you were here, and all the people whos life was touched by you were better for it. Love you Lisa,,and thanks again Lois, you truly are the best.

Hello sweet baby! We love and miss you so very much, but I'm sure you can see that. I love reading the entries (even if they're only signed "a friend") that say how you are remembered and missed. It makes me feel good to know you are remembered. *smile* Today is Eddie's 5 year anniversary! Hard to believe it's been that long. Sometimes it seems like yesterday. Of course I remembered him (and sent cards to his family), but I wasn't alone. This morning at 7:00 am, as I rode past the cemetary going to work, two of his friends were standing up at his spot. Such faithful friends! I can't write on his site, since it's a "read only link" but give him a hug from us... Today was Graci's birthdya party. I was looking at how much Alyvea has grown. The other day, I was watching the video we have of you and her, when she was just a baby. Wow what a difference. I could really tell how much you loved her and enjoyed being an aunt... Well, I have to go sweetie. I love you, forever and a day. XOXO Mom

Hello sweet angel! Happy New Years (and Merry Christmas) Not a day goes by that you are not thought of, loved and missed! I've spent the evening making a video to send to Mark and Carmella, so I have enjoyed watching you all night. You were such a little catbird! I'm sure they'll enjoy seeing you in action. I'm only up to fifth grade, so I still have a few years to add on tomorrow... I'll bet you enjoyed my stupid accident a few weeks ago (what a klutz, huh? *L*). It's funny though, when the doctor came into the ER to stitch up my forehead, he walked through the door and started to speak. He stopped and turned around to look at the door. Then he turned to me, looking puzzled, and said "That's weird, I could have swore I felt someone walk in the door behind me." I just laughed and said "That's probably my daughter Lisa." Of course he looked at me like I must have REALLY hit my head hard, but I just wonder if it WAS you. If so, I'm sure you were having a good laugh at my expense *smile*... Christmas was nice, but just not the same without you here. As usual, we had lights on your's and Eddie's spots at the cemetary. The Schwinabarts are sure generous with their electricity every year. They all thought the world of you. "Santa" (aka Erica/Andrea) gave dad and I an ornament with your name and a puppy on a soccer ball. I hung it in the dining room on the shelf with your other "Lisa" ornaments that friends have left at the cemetary for you through the years. I'm glad they still think of you. It's sad for me when I think about how they are all getting older and maturing without you. I have to keep reminding myself that you aren't missing out. If anything, YOU'RE the lucky one. I can't wait for the day when I get to see you and hug you again. Dad too. He's miserable without you. Send him a hug, okay?... Well, I have to get to bed. I love you baby, and miss you. Take care... XOXO Mom

~Merry Christmas Lisa~ Its been awhile since I have been on here but dont think I forgot about you cause I would never do anything like that. There's something that reminds me of you each day. I got a card in the mail from your family which was sweet. (Thanks Lois and family...:) The angel on the card kinda reminded me of you. It was just something about it. I prayed to God that he would send his and your presence at your home this Christmas and throughout the new year. Im sure he will and Im sure you will be there watching over everyone and keeping them safe. Lois and guys I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year as well! Im sorry to hear about your accident and I hope you feel better! Thanks for the card! Well Leese I better get off here and start to wrap presents before christmas is here...lol! I will write back soon! Take Care and dont be causing any mischeif in Heaven! Love Ya~

Well I guess I should start off by saying Merry Christmas. I know this time of year is rough, but I know everything will be okay. Even though I didn't know Lisa as well as many of her friends, I still consider her a good friend. My last memory of Lisa is her running toward me to give me a hug. She was running a cross country meet at Keyser and I was at the meet watching. She was always a happy person and the most friendly person I have ever or will ever meet. I will never forget our trip to the amusement park with Josh and Holly. The four of us had a blast!!! I have never met a family with more love than yours. Everyone from Bob and Sue and that family to Lois and Lisa and everyone else. You all made me always feel welcome in your home and anytime we were all together. I will never forget all the good times...especially when Josh, Lisa, and Andrea would want to videotape everyone around Christmas and go around asking everyone questions. Even though some of these things were over six and seven years ago, they are still fresh in my mind. Lisa, you are sadly missed and I will always have a special place in my heart for you. Although it has been a very long time, Lois, if you or anyone need anything, never hesitate to call me. Lots of love...

Hello sweet angel! Happy Thanksgiving! We love and miss you, but I'm sure you know that. How could we NOT love and miss you? You (still) are such an important part of our lives. I'm so thankful that God gave you to us, even if it was for only fifteen years. Our many memories of you will have to suffice until we are reunited. Thank you for leaving such a wonderful imprint on my life. Love you always baby. Love, Mom

Dear Lauren (I know you'll read this here) so "Thank you Thank you Thank you!" for the scrapbook! When you told Lisa a few weeks ago that you were working on a nice "thank you gift" for the graduation angel we sent you, I wrote back and said it wasn't necessary. I'm glad you didn't listen. The book you made us came in the mail today, but I was just heading back to work and didn't get to look at it right away. I spent this evening reading the stories and looking at all the pics and stuff. The letter at the end made me smile. I enjoyed hearing that you told Lisa that if you didn't have your family, you'd want to be part of ours. Thanks. You'll always have a place in our "family" and hearts. And it was so nice seeing "new" (that I haven't seen before) pics of Lisa. It was neat that the one pic had both Lisa and Eddie in it! Again Lauren, thanks so much. We'll treasure it!... Dear sweet Lisa, You have such precious friends. I hope you are enjoying yourself in heaven. Just don't be too busy to greet me when it's my turn, like I just know Eddie was waiting for you... Squiggy is taking good care of your room. People laugh when I tell them we have a pot belly pig that "shares" your room, and that she keeps it neater than you did *haha*... I dressed Sugar and Squiggy up as ballerinas for the trick or treaters. They all liked them. Sugar always was good about wearing costumes, but I wasn't too sure how Squiggy would do. She wouldn't wear the hair barette, but she wore the little pink tutu, which showed up really well against her black body... Well angel, I better go. Be with me next Wednesday. I love and miss you, as always. XOXO Mom

I don't know you or your family. But by reading all those beautiful condolences from family and friends i can see you are very special to them. You are very loved and very lucky to have friends and family to stick by you in times like this. You have given them the strength and courage to move on with the sunshine as your smile. Just reading what everyone wrote i admire your family and friends to keep writing to you and staying in touch. That is the most beautiful love i have ever seen. Thats what i like to call "Heavenly Love". Like I said i don't know the family, but keep up the good work, lean on each other for support, be there to listen when someone needs someone to talk to, be the shoulder they cry on, be the one to keep others strong. This is one tight family and thats the way it should be. If only more families in the world was like your family we wouldn't be at war or killing or anything like that. We ALL need the love. It's angels like you that brings us all together. I myself have lost loved ones and just reading the condolences has gave me the courage to move on. This site is truly a blessing and i will save the site to my favorites and write back as much as i can. But even though i don't know u guys again, just reading all this makes you all a family of mine. Thank you for being strong and courageous. Keep up the good work and you will go far in life. Love you guys, my condolences and prayers are with you. You may email me if you need someone to talk to. I will be there for you guys. Also, if any of you guys have yahoo messenger just add me to your friends list and we can talk more. My yahoo id is brat_and_lovin_it@yahoo.com . God Bless You and Your Angel and God Bless our Troops.

Hey sweet angel! (and Hi Lauren!) I read Lauren's entry the other day. She said she was at the cemetary to visit you, and wished she had something with her to leave for you. I remember reading that, and thinking "If I had found a Jolly Rancher or a Root Beer Barrel, I would have known Lauren had been there". Then she wrote again today, mentioning the "root beer barrel campfire" incident *L* You silly girls... but I also think of root beer barrels when I think of you, and sometimes buy them just for that reason. The same with angel food cake. How ironic that angel food cake was your (and fellow angel, Jonathon Dolly)'s favorite cake. Speaking of Lauren, Hey Lauren, did you ever get the root beer barrel that I left as an "angel kiss" in your mom's post office box? I knew it would brighten your day, but haven't talked to you to see if you got it... I guess you know that your friend, Marcie's dad died last week. How sad for her family. Please be with them. And your friend Tyler finally got to come home from the hospital, almost 2 1/2 years after his car wreck. Be with him and his family during this big transition. They had a big fundraiser for him in August. We couldm't go because it was the same night as Brandy and Justin's wedding, but I mailed a donation from us... I've been kicking around the idea of having a family holiday party, a get together of all us local families who have lost a loved one (there are so many of us...Wade, Rogers, Paton, Wilson, Willis, Warnick, Shaw, White, Dolly, Lambert, Crowe, etc). You know, just get together and have fun together and remember our special angels, maybe each of us bring a gift to donate to "Toys For Happiness" in your memories. I don't know how well it would go over, but the idea keeps popping in my head... So how do you like your new roommate? Squiggy, our new "Baby Girl" (as I call her) pot belly pig is loads of fun to have around. Somehow I didn't think you would mind sharing your room with her. She's about 25 pounds now, hopefully she won't get much more than 70 or so. But they way your dad enjoys giving her snacks, I'm holding my breath! *L* ... Well sweet baby, it's 1 am, and I have to work tomorrow, so I better try to get back to sleep. Love you, forever and a day. XOXO Mom PS... Be with me when I go to my dr appt next month, and try to help me calm my nerves. I try to stay positive, but since losing you, it's so easy to get paranoid over any little thing. Help me relax, sweetie. Thanks, Love you...

Hi there again. Tonight I am doing more homework (yuck) and I am doing a silly project on energy. One of the energy sources was wood fuel and I remembered the time we had to do the thing where we read to the younger kids at bloomington and we were trying to make an edible camp site. You said we should use root beer barrells as wood. I'm not sure if it was so funny because we were young or if it was because it was so late at night and we were sleep deprived. I just remember it was one of the funniest things I had ever heard. I kept laughing and I knew I couldn't finnish my homework until I wrote to you. Anyway, I'll have to go buy some root beer barrels tomorrow as my reward for finnishing my homework. I'll send you some too! Anyway, g'nite for now!

Lisa, hey there! wow! It's been so long since I've talked to you. Your family sent me the most beautiful angel tassel for graduation. I'm working on a thank you! It's taken a long time, but I hope to have it done soon! Anyway, my mom and I are talking about getting an iguana or some type of lizzard for the new office. We started talking about all your pets and laughing. She said "who was that dog that always jumped around as high as you?" and "who was that little white guy" (referring to Ernie!) I was telling her we would have to let the lizzard swim in the bathtub or you'd be upset with us. We are trying to think of a name for him. I know you would have had the perfect name! I guess you have seen we've moved into a new house! It's weird not being in bloomington anymore! It's like all of us from around there were so close at once. I miss those days so bad! Now I'm 20 minutes from there! I went to my dad's house the other day and stopped at the cemetary. I wish I had something to put there. I found an old note you wrote to me the other day and I was so sad. I remembered how much fun it was to get e-mail and notes from you. Then, I got on here and realized how happy I was to have that note. there are so many people who write on here that they wished they had known you. It makes me happy that I did know you and I was blessed with your friendship. Anyway, I have a ton of homework so I better get going. (lois-can you please let me know about the fundraisers and events going on for lisa? my e-mail is laurenbren@yahoo.com thank you so much for the angel tassel. I am working on something for you guys! I promise I'll get it there!)

Adam means the world to me just as much as you do. i just wish sometimes that i could be strong and able to deal with things, so i am asking you to help me! i miss your laugh, funny personality and you! i saw your mom and dad this summer at the have alot and they seemed to be doing great! i am sorry that i didnt get to go to the 5k run i have went every year and this year i was out of town. i have asked around for a shirt but no one seems to have any! maybe you can help me out! well girly i love and miss ya, stay in touch adn watch over everyone! love Brooke

Hey Lisa. Four years. It is so hard to believe. Not a day goes by that I don't think of all the great times we had. Remember the four wheeler incident when we broke down and I was pushing and you started going fast after is started? Or that night we spent in the big play house? You were a great friend and person. We all miss you. I know you are watching down on us. It's weird sometimes I think I see you at the mall or something. Well I can barely see through my tears so I guess I will go. Much love. I miss you.

Lisa~~> I'm sitting here trying not to cry because I have a roommate now in college. (I'm afraid she'll ask me what's wrong and I'll just end up bawling)...so lately I have had the worst nights trying to get to sleep and stay asleep. I find myself waking up 4-5 times nightly, and waking up terrified. They say the dorms I'm in are haunted and the girl in the room next door has already heard things. I think that's why I get so scared...Sometimes I even offer my roommate $1 to walk with me to the bathroom *hehe*-so, when I do wake up and am scared, I try to think of you and it helps me get back to sleep. You know you're the reason I live the way I live now. I'm so much happier, thank you!!! Everytime I drive by the cemetary, I try so hard not to look, but I can't help it. Scott told me all the crosses on the wall at the bottom of the hill are for the people who died there. I'm glad it was nighttime when he told me because I ended up crying. Anyway, I just wanted to wish you a happy "rebirth", and I'm thinking of you often! <3, Tori

"To laugh often and much... to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children... to leave the world a better place... to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived... This is to have succeeded." That quote reminds me of you sweet baby. Well, it's five o'clock a.m., on your death anniversary day, and I can already tell it's going to be a long day. I woke up an hour ago in a panic, and I don't want to lay back down because I know I'll end up having an anxiety attack, so I thought it would be a good time to write you, since of course you know I was going to write today anyway. I hope you have a wonderful Four Year "rebirth"day celebration in Heaven with all your friends. Of course we don't acrually "celebrate" it here, we more "commemmorate" it... When I think of all the lives you have impacted, I am in awe of you. Even lives that you didn't touch until after your departing: Mark and Carmelina, Tori, Kerri, Adele (I wonder if she still visits this site, I haven't emailed her in awhile, but was so touched that she asked you to be her son's guardian angel)... Yesterday was a bummer, maybe it was your way of showing me your presence. On the way to work I heard "I Believe" (Diamond Rio?) as I was passing the cemetary. Then another song that also made me cry. When I got to work, I put Radio Disney on my headphones, to listen to upbeat cheery music. The third song that played was N'Sync's "It's Gonna Be Me", your last favorite song. I remember, a few days before the accident, so said "I'll NEVER get sick of this song!" So naturally I cried over that one too. *haha*... I suppose you noticed you have a roommate, Ann's baby pot belly pig, Squiggy. I didn't think you would mind sharing a little floor space with her cage. Funny, didn't I often tell you your room looked like a pig stye? *haha* Well, sweet baby, have a wonderful day. I love and miss you beyond words. Love, Forever and a day, Mom

I love you Lisa, and miss you so very much. I was thinking of you on my walk this evening. Of course, that's nothing new, I think of you every single day. Especially today, I guess because I was working with Jennifer and telling her all my funny Lisa stories. Plus I was working on the thank you notes for the 5k run. Anyway, you've been on my mind all day, and I've been missing you so much today... I'm enjoying the messages from your new friend Kerry (Hi Kerry! Thanks for writing. I get ticked off by all the advertising messages people post too. Poor Brian, it's become a fulltime job for him, trying to keep them deleted. Some people just have no respect. Oh well, what can you do?)... Britt's bday was the other day, and Dan L's death anniv is coming up next week, then of course your death anniv next month. I dread all these anniversaries. I would much rather have you all here, making our lives complete. It's hard learning to live with the voids in our lives... We had a good time on vacation. It was so nice that you gave us a sign that you were with us! As soon as we got there, right in front of our door, sat a penny on the floor. We just looked at it, remembered the poem "Pennies From Heaven" and said, "Lisa beat us here. Look at that!" *smile* Thanks, it made our week much nicer... Andrea's baby pig was born while we were gone. We went to see her last weekend (her name is Squiggy) Dad's cousin Alan is bottle feeding it until it's weaned. She's so little and cute. I hope she gets along with Sugar and Audrey okay... Well, its way past bedtime, so I better go. Love you baby. XOXOXOXO Mom

Hello sweet angel! Well, we'll be leaving for vacation in a few hours. Watch over us as we travel, and feel free to join us (let us feel your presence) It just won't be the same if you don't come along! We love and miss you so much! Love always, Mom and Dad (PS...Sugar is staying with Lacey and her family. She's going to be homesick, so give her a hug every day *smile*)

Hi sweet baby, How are things in heaven? Watch for a new kid in town named Duke. He died in a motorcycle crash last week. His dad is a friend of mine... The 5K Run and Wadestock were great! There were 206 participants for the run this year (up from 188 last year!) You did a fine job on the weather for the run, but you could have done better for the concert. Scott Lee said when he finally gets to see you again, you and him are going to have a little go around. *haha* Next year (Wadestock 2005) you better be a little nicer to him... We are all going to Myrtle Beach next week, feel free to show up and vacation with us *smile* Then shortly after we get home, Ann should be getting her baby pig (what fun! *haha* He better be a good pet, or he may end up being dinner some night *just kidding, just kidding!*)... Well, Ann has finals for school tomorrow so I better let her get on here. Talk to you soon. Love you, sweet angel. XOXO Mom PS... I really enjoy all the people who don't know us, but feel a connection to you, and write to you on here. *smile* You still touch lives!

Mrs. Wade: I just wanted to say that these are some of the most beautiful sentiments that I have ever read in my life. I find myself visiting this page often just to read all the nice things about your Lisa. I never knew her but I do remember her tragic accident and reading about her 5K run. Lois, although I don't know you I admire your strength. I can bet that many people find themselves coming to this site because your words give them the strength to go on when they have lost loved ones. I can tell how much Lisa was loved by all and I can only hope to have the privelage of meeting her when I make it to Heaven. May God bless you and you family

Well Lisa, the concert is tomorrow. I hope you bring us sunshine. The weather channel is telling me it will rain (I know you wouldn't let that happen to us). Steve (Amann) and I were talking and we want the lisa concert to be an annual event. We are actually pretty optimistic that it will be. I hope it gets bigger and better every year. Maybe one day I'll be able to bring in a big star to perform for you and your family. Well I have got some work to do for tomorrow. I'll see you then.

(Kerry, Thanks for all the messages! Scott, who is Joe Jackson and how do we reach him?) Hello Lisa, my sweet baby girl! Your 5K race is coming up this weekend. Also, another benefit concert (Wadestock '04...cute name, huh? *smile*) It should be a fun "Lisa" day for us. Your friend Derek (Chico?) called today, said he can't be at the race but wanted to know if we would put a flower on your grave for him, which of course we will *smile* It was so nice of him to call and let us know he was thinking of you. Mark and Carmella sent us door prizes from England for the race. Seems you touch hearts everywhere! I mailed them "Lisa" t shirts, they are going to wear them Saturday in your honor, since they can't be here for the race. From what I read there are quite a few bands playing for your concert...Distorted Pengiuns, deadburydead (Jamie Morton's band), thats all I can think of at the moment. Send sunshine (and no humidity!) down to us for the day, okay? Well baby, there was lots I was planning to say when I got on here, but now my mind went blank and I can't remember them. So I guess I'll go for now... Oh yeah, one thing, I met Jonathon Dolly's dad the other day at work. We had a good little talk about our angels. Have the two of you met in heaven yet? For some reason I think you have... Okay sweet pea, I'll see you in my dreams. Love, forever and a day. XOXO Mom

To Lois, I accidentally came across your daughter’s site. My daughter is just a few months younger than Lisa (July 30). I’m sure it is hard to believe it will almost be 4 years since the passing of Lisa. Even though I don’t know you, I just wanted to send my sympathy

Hi Lisa, Happy 4th of July..I will be thinking about you tonite as I look up into the sky and watch the beautiful display of fireworks. I feel like you and your mom are part of my family...and you are..the family of God. Lisa, I know you are having a blessed day being with our Lord, so Mrs. Wade, I'm wishing you and your family a blessed day also. Revelation 21:4 "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."

When I saw all the young people having fun on the beaches, it made me wish you could have been down here on earth having that fun too, but i guess you have a much better time than we do where you are. I know you will be with your family for your memorial run day in a few weeks, so have fun see ya darlin, Mark & Carmelina

I have not stopped thinking about you Lisa since I first came across your site yesterday. My wet cheeks are getting all soggy and wrinkly, I dont know why I miss you Lisa, I never did even meet you while you were here...my heart cries out for your dear mother and all your friends who miss you so very much. You have changed my life....you are truly an angel. I'm gonna go tell all my friends this morning that I love them and I'm gonna call all of my relatives and tell them I miss them..God brought me here to this site, I know now for a reason....too show me what it means to love...you are that example Lisa and I thank you so much...I love you Lord, and I love you Lisa..."We soon shall join the throng, their pleasures we shall share, and sing the everlasting song with all the ransom'd there: Hallelujah! We are on our way to God"....and Mrs. Wade..Keep your head up and keep smiling, she wants you to...bye for now and have a blessed day

I came upon this site as I was looking for the lyrics to the song "Concrete Angel"..Mrs. Wade, I'm searching for the words to say to you that might ease your grief and pain you must feel for the loss of your angel, but there are none. I am wiping away tears as I type this and wondering why God would need her more than you would. I would have loved to have met Lisa, she is loved by everybody, and she has a special mother too....I want to end this comment by saying this..Lisa is in your future now Mrs. Wade, and she is waiting for you and all those she loves and cherishes....I am also looking forward to meeting her when God calls me home, it will be an honor to meet such a fine young lady as her...and thank you Lisa for touching my life down here in this world below, there is no sickness, toil or danger in that bright world to which I go....Thanks Mrs. Wade for allowing us to comment. I will write again....bye for now..God Bless

dear family and friends....i have no right to make any comment about your dearly loved one LISA .i was reading through the web back here in england and accidently came upon all those e- mails about Lisa, the comments i read moved me very much.i feel she was loved by all so much that a person like me could not say much more to help ease the pain of her loss,but if these words can be of some comfort to dear family and friends then allow me to say: do not stand at my grave and weep,i am not there, i do not sleep,i am a thousand winds that blow;i am diamond glints on snow;i am the sunlight on ripened grain;i am gentle autumnal rain.When you waken in the morning hush,i am the soft uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flights;i am the soft stars that shine at night.do not stand at my grave and cry.i am not there,i did not die.

There is a time for everything, and everything on earth has it's special season. Every day, every week, every month, every season, I am reminded of what an extraordinary person Lisa was. She will forever remain in my heart, in my soul, and in every memory. She had a time to laugh, a time to cry, a time to love, a time to dance. I pray every day that God will give all of us the time for peace, in our hearts, in our minds, and in our lives. I miss you dearly Lisa!

(Mandy, Lisa's site is back up!) Hey sweet Lisa! Just a quick hello from you "favorite mom" *smile* Okay, your ONLY mom. Dad and I went to the Westmar Sports banquet last night to give out your Lisa awards. Lacey Lee, Jared Rowan, Jordan Zais and Aaron Shockey won them this year. Let me rephrase that, they received the awards. Nobody WINS the Lisa award, they EARN it! I wonder if they know how many people have input into the selection of the winners. They should feel honored to win your award as it shows they have earned the respect of their teachers and coaches, something worth being proud about!!! Lacey and Jared both seemed especially touched by the award. It's quite obvious that you are very special to them. I enjoyed seeing your friends. Eddie's mom, Libby, sat with us as did Coach Lauder, Eddie's basketball coach. (Justin McGregor received the Eddie Scholarship) It was a nice night. We (the four of us) got to talk about you and Eddie and how much we miss you both. Did you and Eddie see the cute figurine that Libby put between your graves?...the boy and girl sitting on the park bench, the boy kissing the girl's cheek. Really cute... Well, sweet baby, I have to go. Love you and miss you, XOXO Mom

I stumbled on this site one evening... I must say, I can't even put into words how I feel. I spent alot of time crying and reading the entries. I have five children and can't even imagine losing one of them. It seems to me you are a very strong woman, and you have a close relationship with your daughter, I can see this...and in this I can see that I would most definately do the same if I were in your position. I hope that you have given strength to those who have lost a loved one, by letting them know that the person lives on inside of them, and in Heaven...... God Bless You

I'm now having a 3 weeks Easter Holiday, but during this long break, I still need to finish my lab reports, I've got 3 to hand in after Easter.And my exams is coming in 6 weeks' time. Well, I havent really started revising, I was busying with my reports and stuffs. I am getting more NOT organised nowadays, I dont know why... There are so many things to do and everything is important, I just dont know how to arrange my time. Sometimes, I even submit my report on the last minute. I really wish I can be an organised person, especially during final year here. I'm pretty worrying about my exams sometimes, but all I am doing is just trying to do all my best. Yes, your birthday is coming. So, you are big big girl in a big big world and different world~~~ HEHhehehe!!!! Are you gonna have a big big wish? ABSOLUTELY, I guess.. hehehehe....

I really didn't get a chance to know you but you were always nice to me and would tell me hi everyday with a big smile. I miss that, you made me feel special and important. It's been almost a year since we all graduated but it still feels like yesterday. I want to tell your mom how sorry I am that she lost you, I know that pain becaue I just recently lost my grandma and I remember all the good times we had together. I hope that you're happy and safe in heaven and that you're watching over all of us and keeping us strong. I miss you and love you bye.

Tori, I'm sure Lisa would be absolutely THRILLED to be included in your autobiography (mail me a copy for her scrapbook please, contact me and I'll give you the address) As long as Lisa lives on in the hearts and minds of others, she will continue to live, so I'm sure she'll be around a long long time! *smile*... Mark, Thank you. I always enjoy reading people's entries and knowing that Lisa is thought of often and with love, even by people she only touched after her death. AWESOME! Yes, Lisa's 19th birthday is this month, April 22 (Earth Day) and it warms me to know you remembered. Thanks again... Lisa, my sweet baby, I guess you've been having a busy weekend. I'm sure you were at heaven's gate to greet Grandma on Friday when she died. I'll bet that was quite a reunion, you getting to see her again and her getting to see your granddad again after 51 years. Wow! But I'm sad that you also got to meet Erica's baby there the same weekend. Try hard to let Erica feel your presence and give her a warm hug. I'm sure she's feeling pretty sad right now. I've never had to deal with a miscarriage before so I don't really know how to help her heal. I only know I feel a loss as well and will probably always wonder what he/she may have been like. But we'll cope, we always do (we're a tough breed, huh? *smile*)... Love you and miss you, now as always. XOXOXOXOXOXOXO Mom

Lisa, I wanted to ask you if it would be all right if I added part of you to my autobiography. I can't tell you how often I come here, and how much more I think of you!! My goodness, now- every laugh is louder, every "i love you" more sincere, I think you know how much you mean to me. Thank you from the top and bottom of my heart. But, I've been on here reading ,ten times over, all the different entries and stories...I can't let myself know about you and not tell everyone! I hope you know that-hehe. One of the things we have to write about is "good times and not so good times" and I thought about you for both. You're beautiful face was one of the first things that popped into my head, and I couldn't help but coming here and writing to say "thanks " again, times a million and one this time! You always find a way to put a smile on my face (naturally, after putting tears in my eyes *wink*) I just wanted to clear the air with you and see if it was OK if I put in a page or 20 (lol) about you and all the wonderful things you've done and are still doing. I'm sure it would mean a lot to everyone who read it. I sure know you've meant a lot to me!!!

Just checking in on Lisa. I know it will be Lisas birthday soon and i bet she has started partying already. I always look at this condolensce board because ever since i first accidentally stumbled onto this site i have felt that Lisa has helped me change my way of thinking and become a better person. I hope i am not intruding on Lois and familys grief, i would never want that, but Lisa has really touched my heart, and when its my turn I hope to meet Lisa in heaven..that would be such a great moment for me...i just hope she finds time, she has that many friends. What a wonderful daughter to have. I hope the 'Lisa Wade memorial run' is going ahead again this year as i like to check in on the photo site and see her friends and family celebrating her short but so productive life. Thanks Lois for putting Lisas memory into all of our hearts. One last thing...Lois, you have a fantastic homepage, but i would love to see an update as your thoughts on life are intelligent and funny. I hope you find time soon. God bless Lisa Wade.

He is currently in the hospital, but he is brain dead...All of the postings about you show you were such a blessing and bright star that when you see our Joe in heaven, take his hand and let him know we miss him. Your Mom misses you sweetie, but she knows that one day she will see and hug you all over. I have never met your Mom, but you can tell by her postings to you that in her big heart you live forever. It gives me strength in my time of need. Thank you for listening and Joe will be the angel who is Samoan with a contagious laugh, big bright smile and ponytails...God Bles you Lisa and keep watching over your family... Linda

Hi baby!... Wow, what a beautiful testimony for you! (the last entry before this one... thank you to whoever wrote it... it certainly put a smile on my face and a warmth in my heart) Speaking of a smile on my face, Erica and Scott put one there yesterday when they stopped with their good news (they just saved a lot of money on their car insurance by switching to Geiko *haha* I can't remember if thise silly Geiko commercials were on yet before you left us) You know what news I'm talking about. Why do I even tell you our news? I'm sure you know everything before we do... Anyway, how is it going to feel to be an aunt again? Another little bundle of joy for you to watch over, and I'm sure you'll be a great "Guardian Angel Aunt" to him/her. I know we'll be sure he or she knows what a wonderful aunt he/she has looking over him/her (since you know everything before us tell me, is it a boy or a girl? Dad is hoping real hard for a boy but you know me and my weakness for little girls *smile*) All this talk has reminded me that Eddie's little nephew Jace, who is only what, 3(?), looks at pictures of Eddie and says "He talks to me" That s so encouraging to me, and I know you will be just a great an aunt to Erica's baby. Oh sweet girl, we really really miss you. Some moments it feels like you were just here yesterday and other moments it feels like you've been gone an eternity! But I know we'll meet again someday and I look forward to that day. Well Scridge, I've written a book here, it seems, so I'll go. Behave and shine down on me when I take my nightly walks (one star always seems to stand out to me, like you're saying "I'm here", and I talk to "you" and look for "you" each lap *smile* I always feel closest to you then.) Love you Leese, Forever and a day.... XOXOXO Mom

Even though we didn't know eachother very long we hold many memories together. It happens out of the blue that something reminds me of you. You still put a smile on my face! I miss you, Lisa.

Lisa!! Hey! This is the third time I've written on here, I'm sorry it hasn't been more. Well, I have to say I think about you a lot, especially recently. One of my friends brothers was killed in a car accident Sunday morning. I've been afraid to drive ever since, but I guess there's always courage in everyone somewhere. I've been trying to tell myself I shouldn't be scared of dying, but more scared of never living at all. I'm dressed up today because I'm going to the viewing after school. It hasn't really hit me yet, but I'm sure there will be plenty of crying later on. I pray for you a lot, my dad's trying to get me to go back to church on a regular basis, so I'll be sure to try to talk to you there, too--some people say it's the closest place to heaven...I pass your house quite a bit on my way to the Lee's--and I always think of you and your family. I saw someone had named their baby Jonathan Michael (like Michelle) and just to let you know, if I have a daughter, her middle name will be Michelle (after you) *trust me, it's been planned already*-lol. You are an amazing person, and there is no doubt in my mind you will never be forgotten!! Love to you and the rest of the Wade family.

Hey Lisa, Man it has been about five years since I last talked to you. I came across one of the letters you wrote me wayyy back when and it made me think of you. I was in North Carolina not too long ago and I dunno it's still a ways from Maryland but it's a lot closer to you than Seattle. I thought about you while I was there too. Remember that gecko ring I bought for you when I was in Mexico but never actually sent? Well I still wear it around my necklace every day. I see it as a constant reminder that life is way too short. People ask me why I wear it and I tell them about you. It always makes me sad when I explain things to them, but then I think--why should we waste our time being sad? There isn't enough time in our short lives for that. Life's too precious. Anyway, I just thought I'd stop by and say hi... And I'm sure I'll give you your ring some day. Thanks Lisa.. Joey

Hi sweetie, Just thought I'd pop in to say hello to my angel. I just heard your friend Holly had her baby on Christmas Day. Wow, what a present! I was just talking to her at Walmart two days before Christmas. She said she's naming him Jonathan(?) Michael... the Michael as a masculine alternative to your middle name, Michelle. Isn't that neat? So now you have a little namesake to watch over. It's so neat how your friends manage to "keep you alive" *smile* Well, I better go. Love and miss you sweet angel. XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO Mom

Hi sweet angel... Happy New Year! (1 1/2 hours early) to you and all your heavenly friends. Chrissy Crowe's death anniversary was two days ago, Melvin Beachy's the beginning of December (I got to see his family when I went up to his schools Christmas program. His little brothers are the cutest things... quiet as mice but adorable (don't know if that's an Amish trait or they're just shy) The only times I've ever heard them speak was saying their parts for the play. His mom was missing Melvin bad that night, I could tell. Britt, Ashley and Eddie's death anniversaries are coming up in January, so I'm sure there will be the need for lots of love to be sent down from your gang... A family up here lost their trailer to a fire four days before Christmas. Dad and I went Christmas shopping and went Christmas eve with presents for them all. We just said it was "our Lisa money", what we would have spent on you if you were here. The girls were thrilled with their outfits and toys. Dad said Ashley wore hers to church Sunday and told him she loves it, so thanks Lisa. Ashley also said she remembers you. She was just little when you died, and remembers that you were the only high school kid on the bus that paid any attention to the little kids. She said you even signed her backpack "I Love You, Lisa" with a heart beside it. She still had the backpack...until it burned up in the fire. But anyway, it felt good to do something in your name for someone at Christmas, remembering what a giving person you were... I'm sitting here all alone. Ann and Shaun went to a dance, dad went to bed early, and of course Erica has her own home now. I'm probably heading to bed soon myself. Just have to wait for the pork and sauerkraut to get done. Well sweetie, have a great new year in heaven and we'll try to do the same here. And until we meet again, we'll be loving and missing you! Love Always, XOXOXOXOXOXO Mom

I didnt get a chance to tell you Happy Thanksgiving so here it is. Its kinda late but atleast I told you. I bet that you had a great thanksgiving in Heaven. Well it's almost Christmas now and everyone's out doing there last minute things like decorating and shopping. I saw your dad today and I stopped and talked to him. Your family is so nice. They always talk to you whenever they see you just like you used too. I hope you have fun in Heaven on Christmas! Watch over everyone down here and keep us safe. Tell Britt, Eddie and Jeff that I said "hey and I was thinkin' about them"! I will write you more later Leese! ~Love Ya and Happy Holidays~

Hello Lisa, This is the time of year when we take a few moments to say Thank you to people that have supported you and been there when you need them. I'd like to say Thank You for remaining Jaxon's guardian angel. Even thought we had never met and you don't know my son, I know you watch over him and keep him safe. I am so grateful for that. I'd also like to wish you and your family a "Safe, Happy and wonderful Holiday Season". Sincerely, Adele

Hi sweet baby, I've been trying hard not to write so often, but since your friend wrote to say Happy Halloween, so will I. "Happy Halloween" We all love and miss you. We miss you tonight for trick or treating, I was missing you today when I took books to school for the library in your memory and Mrs Thomas and I talked about you. And we missed you so much on 10/17 at Erica and Scott's wedding. But I trust that you were with us in spirit for all of these. I really REALLY felt you near me the week before the wedding when I was busy sewing dresses. And I felt Dan's presence too. He thanked me for "doing this for Jess" (making her dress, inviting her to be a flower girl, etc) That was cool! Well baby I better go before people think I'm nuts. haha. Love you and miss you!

I saw the remembrances in the Keyser and Cumberland papers today for Lisa and thought they were very nice. It is so important that you cherish the memories that you have and I think it's sweet.

Hi sweetie! Well baby, today is your day! Your three year anniversary in heaven. Hope you celebrate with a piece of angel food cake (funny, how you LOVED angel food cake down here) We, naturally, don't celebrate today...more like commemorate. We miss you and want you here with us. But that wasn't God's plan for you I guess. So, I think of you and try to be happy for you, because you are in such an awesome place. I will see you again and we will have a wonderful reunion then. Until then, I will be loving and missing you. Got to go buy my baby some balloons now to put at the cemetary (be a "good" girl and don't mess with them this time *haha*) Love you baby, XOXOXO Mom (and Dad)

Hi baby! I was just sitting here listening to the hurricane race towards us. It'll be another couple hours before it hits full force, but the wind is already whipping like crazy. We'll probably end up losing our power before morning... Well baby, another two days and it will be your three year anniversary in Heaven. Now that most of your friends are out of high school, I wonder how many of them will remember "your day" (Some may forget you, now that you're gone, But we will remember you, no matter how long...that was the end of a poem I read after Eddie's death but before yours, and I've never forgotten it) Speaking of poems, Andrea wrote you a poem to put in the paper on Saturday. If I can find a copy of it around here I'll have to print it on this site later... I don't know how time is measured there, but it has been an incredibly long three years for us. We think of you constantly. People probably get tired of my "Lisa" stories, but I can't help it. You are such an important part of my life I can't help but talk about you... I try to stay upbeat and positive, but i have my moments. Today was one of them. Coming up the mountain this afternoon, close to the spot where you were hit, I had a bunch of flashbacks of that night, just one after another, like a slide show. I hate flashbacks, but i guess they're just part of my life now... We're all busy getting ready for Erica's wedding. Wish you could be here (in person, not just in spirit) You would be a blast to be around as we planned, decorated, partied, etc. I've never met such a fun person as you. And silly. No matter how mad I was at you, when you got in your silly hyper moods, or started your "Jim Carey" impressions, I just couldn't help but laugh at you... Well, my sweet angel, I better go. Just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you, missing you, and loving you, as your anniversary approaches. Love Always!!!! XOXO Mom

I saw your dad mowing your grave site. I keep saying I'm going to get out of the car one day and visit your grave. I never go to Bloomington without looking over and saying Hi to you. You are with GOD and your are very lucky. You couldn't be in a better place. I pray I will see you one day. I started back to church and have faith that I will try harder everyday, so I will get to see you someday. LOVE, Marcia Parsons

I just wanted to say that I think it is so wonderful that you cared so much for your daughter that you are keeping her memory alive through this website and the love in your hearts. I can almost feel the pain I imagine that you are feeling and would like to send my condolences and the thought that why do all the good hearted, loving people always get taken first. Two days ago a long-time friend was killed in a car accident and today 8/15 was his funeral which unfortunately I couldn't attend. But Clint was one of the most kind hearted, loving people that I know and I will miss him always and hope that some day will understand why he and so many other good people are taken so early from us. I hope that you will find joy in your lifes even though your daughter was taken from you. I send my love to your family and friends and god bless your family. Thanks, Todd O'Blenness

Hi baby, How are you? Good I hope. I've been missing you a lot lately. I think it's because everything is changing so quickly... Ann got a new vehicle, then dad and I traded the Monte Carlo in on a Trail Blazer, the new kitchen is almost finaished and dad also built a new deck, I'm working on Ike's wedding gown, Ann is planning her bridal shower (a luau at Aunt Sue's), Holly getting ready to move away to college, the rest of your friends moving on to college (even Ann is going back this fall) I just feel like the more that happens, the farther away you drift. Then I noticed some friends wrote you on here and that helped me. I want to keep you and your memories fresh and close to me, and it helps to know I'm not alone in that. I miss you, sweetie, more than you can even imagine. I hate planning this wedding without your crazy input... Erica gave us a scare last week. She was having her surgery for her sweaty hands but they also did a biopsy on her lymph nodes since they were inflamed. They had to collapse her lungs to do it and then had trouble getting her reinflated. Her lungs kept filing up with fluid. He had a big drainage tube running out her side. It was really scary. Different than when you died, because with you we really didn't have time to worry. You were here, and an instant later you were gone. And even though I watched them do CPR for a long time on you and was hoping, I guess deep down I knew you were gone. But Ike really had us scared. Her 2 hr surgery dragged into 5, and her overnight stay ended up two nights. It's reasurring to have her home again, but she's really sore. Well, I've cried on your shoulder enough for one night. Time to do something productive. Love you, baby! Mom ... P.S. Did I tell you we met the "other" Lisa Wade? She came to your 5K run. She is so nice and amazingly, so much like you!

Hi baby! I miss you! I guess you know Maggie died today. Old Magpie lived a long life, 16 years. That 100+ in dog years! So she's been a part of the family as long as you! She was acting out of sorts the last few days, so dad and I kind of expected it, but it didn't make it hurt any less today when she died. I took her for one last walk (a small leisurely one) two days ago. Yesterday she pretty much stayed in her box so last night I practically crawled into her box with her (I'm sure THAT was a sight! *L*) to pet her and talk to her. I told her if she went to heaven to "give you a lick for me" *smile* I hope Sam doesn't get too lonely out there without her. Dad bought him some dog bones at the meat market today to cheer him up... Your Lisa 5K Run was last Saturday. It was nice, as usual. The weather was great (do we thank you for that?) There weren't as many of your classmates there as other years. I knew it was bound to happen soon or later, but I kind of expected it to drop off NEXT year. But there were still a lot of your friends there and it was really nice to see them. Lacey L and Tyler C were both on vacation or they would have been there. The whole day was great. Steve does such a nice job organizing it... Now that its over, and the kitchen remodelling is about done, I have to get back to work on Erica's wedding gown before she gets too worried. She's having surgery next week for her sweaty hands, so watch over her during her surgery okay?... Your sister Dee's aunt Nena just died from cancer. Her husband Jeff is really having a rough time. I was talking to him yesterday at Walmart and the poor guy was falling apart on my shoulder. I felt so bad for him. Look Nena up and welcome her to heaven, and Janet Riley too. She just died from cancer a few days ago... Well baby, I better go. I love you and miss you so so so much. I speak to you about every day and think of you constantly. I hope you can hear me. Love you baby! XOXOXO Mom

Stumbled on to this site on a bored evening...but wow...did i wake up ! From what i have read about Lisa she really was a special person. It seems such a shame that a person as nice as Lisa should miss out on all the stages of life that we take for granted, whilst other non deserving people live til a hundred ! I know in my heart that Lisa really can see and hear the love that her family and friends are sending out to her, even now. Im 5000 miles away from where Lisa lived but in my little corner of the world here in featherstone Wolverhampton UK you can be sure that at least one person thinks of Lisa occasionally. God bless.

Hey Leese, I am doing a project for my summer college class and I wanted to add you into it (it's like a scrapbook) so I choose to do a part about Jim Croce (since we sang his songs all the way home from tennesee) and I happened to stumble upon the day his plane crashed. He shares your "aniversary". I was amazed because it seemed so strange that we sang his songs and I wasn't even looking for that date. I can just imagine calling you up with some goofy information like that and hear you saying" not uh? really? that's so awesome!" lol, I miss it so much! Aaron and I were looking at my scrapbook of you and Eddie the other day..he liked the cat you drew..haha! Anyway, back to my project ;p

I, too have wandered on to Lisa's page quite by mistake, but have been extremely touched by what I have seen and am moved by the obvious courage that Lois has shown. I am a 29 year old mother of a 9 year old, and only in nightmares can I imagine- and only imagine- what she is going through. I lost my sister when I was 14, so my heart also goes out to any siblings she leaves behind. Lois, you are an inspiration- please continue to greive and heal however you need to, I will pray for you and your family.

Hi baby! What a nice day we had! Brian (the virtual-condolence guy)and Nancy came for a visit today. (I know, they live in California but Nancy has family close to here in WV and they were visiting her 101 yr old grandmother. What are the odds of that, them being from California and having relatives 45 minutes from us? Can't help but think it was fate and maybe someday we'll know the reason for all this) Anyway, we had a great visit. We stopped to meet Brittany's family as we were taking the "Westernport tour". We stopped at all the graves: yours, Eddie's, Britt's, Jeff's and Ashley Willis's and he took pictures at all of them. I kind of pictured their daughter Heather hanging out in heaven with all you "Westmar kids", enjoying our visit as well... So what's new with us? I guess you already know, maybe before even we do. I got the extreme honor of being able to speak at your graduation. Mr. Nicol asked if I would read the letter I wrote to your class. I got through it, and the evening, well. I was determined I was going to be happy for your classmates and celebrate with them, instead of feeling sorry for myself. So I guess I went in with the right mental outlook... Your 5K Run is coming up soon, and I'm working on getting door prizes for the day. If you have any pull, make sure we have good weather that day. It has rained so much here that we're actually having mudslides. Dave Grove stopped in the post office Saturday. He and Kathy bought a Longaberger basket that they're raffeling off for the scholarship fund. The wording of the tickets made me cry, that it was donated by them in honor of your senior year. He also brought your soccer spikes back that Danielle wore last fall, so that "you" would be playing your senior year. That was neat! (but it was nice to see your spikes again)... Well baby, not much else to say, so I guess I'll let you get back to whatever it is you do up there (probably giving God more gray hairs *L*) We all miss you so very much. Come visit your dad and I in our dreams. Love always, Mom XOXOXO

I am writing this message to Mrs. Wade- First I want to express my deepest sympathy to you and your family. My nephew, Tyler, graduated last week from Westmar High School. He was on the cross-country team with Lisa. As I sat at graduation and listened to you speak to the graduates I knew I had to let you know in some way how very touched I have been by your courage. I have attended the sports banquets the last two years. You have proved that a mother's bond with her child is the strongest bond in the universe. Your bond with Lisa is evident with every ceremony you attend, every hug and smile you give to her classmates and friends. They are not the only ones who have been touched by your resiliency. I know I have been. May your memories of your precious daughter comfort you always.

THIS entry is to the Westmar Class of 2003. I know many of you still come here to read entries, so this is my way of reaching you. Pass the word...Thanks ****** To the Westmar Class of 2003 ***** Graduation… Graduation, for me this year, is like when you pass a horrible accident scene along the road…you don’t want to look but you just can’t make yourself turn away. On one hand, I really don’t want to be at graduation, to see you graduate without Lisa. That will be heartbreaking for me. On the other hand, I wouldn’t miss it for the world! I want you to know how very special the Class of 2003 is to me. You simply amaze me. You have endured more pain in the past three years than I have in my entire life, and I am awed by your resiliency. You were forced to mature and to face life’s harsh realities much earlier in life than seems fair. You are different people than you probably would have been , had you had the happy carefree high school years that most people take for granted. I think we all… students, teachers and parents… are different people now, but I think that is a good thing. If we were not changed by our losses, that would mean that the lives of Lisa, Brittany, Eddie and Jeff had no meaning. I prefer to think that we were all blessed, and are better people, for having known and loved them. So many of you have told me, over the past three years, that you admire my strength. Although I’m not always as strong as I may appear, I get a lot of that strength from you, and I thank you. I remember walking into the funeral home for Lisa’s viewing, wondering how on earth I would make it through the day. Soon, as one after another of you fell apart on my shoulder, the “mom” in me came to the surface and I found the strength in ME to COMFORT YOU! Amazing, now that I think about it! Then, a week or so later, when the shock wore off and my world came crashing down on me, it was YOU that gave ME strength. Your visits, phone calls, emails, cards and hugs ; Your laughing with me over silly “Lisa” stories and crying with me over shared grief; Your gifts for me and the ones you leave for Lisa at the cemetery that let me know she‘s not forgotten; For all these things I thank you! I especially thank you though, for allowing me to still be a part of your lives. You had to “put up” with me when Lisa was alive. After she left you had a choice, and you still welcomed me into your “world“. It has made me feel so special to be invited to your ballgames, etc. and to be greeted so warmly when I showed up. You have shown your love in so many ways, and I will always hold a special place in my heart for you. There is so much more I want to say to you, but this will have to do (for now... you know how longwinded I can get *L*). In lieu of a memorial award to be given to one person at graduation (how could we possibly pick just one, we think you are ALL winners!), we have decided to do something that will benefit everyone. Donations are being made, in your name and Lisa’s memory, to the Westernport and George’s Creek branches of the Allegany County library. Danny and I wish each of you all the success that life has to offer. Please keep in touch as you move forward with your lives. See you at graduation! Love Always, Lois (Lisa’s mom) Wade .... PS... I love you Lisa! XOXO Mom

Hi babydoll! No special reason for writing tonight. I was just tired of seeing "Happy Birthday" everytime I check your page (which is everytime I get on the computer, so that's a lot! I sure wish you were still here hogging the thing all the time "In a minute!..." Didn't you ever get tired of saying that? *haha*)... I love the song that plays on here when I'm adding an entry... Tyler C. is in Godspell at Westmar the next few nights. Hoping I can find someone to go with me. I'd like to see it but you know how awkward I feel going to things alone... The Westmar Sports Banquet is next Tuesday. Dad just told me he can't go, so I guess I have to do that alone too, unless I can get grandma or someone to go with me. Darn, I wish you were still here. I miss my "shadow"... The prom was last weekend, I was feeling blue then too because you were missing it and in about a month, there's graduation. I'm going to be a basket case by the time all this is over. I hate seeing all these things happen without you, wondering if you're remembered or not. I guess I'll feel better when all this is just over and done with! Well baby, I better go. Love you, forever and a day! XOXOX Mom

Hey Lisa:) Happy Birthday! i woke up thinking about you this morning, and how much i miss you. my grandmother passed away this morning, i was pretty upset to get that phone call, but then i thought about it, and i realized how much better off she is going to be, no more pain, and of all people she gets to hang out with you! im kinda jeleous;) please give her a hug for me, on a much happier note though, my aunt had a baby girl yesterday so she got to meet my grandma before it was to late:) it was a very emotional time for my family, but i am glad my grandma got to meet her. well i miss you lots, and cant wait to talk to you again. hope you have a very happy birthday!!! love ya

Hey there Leese! I just wanted to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! When I was on the way home today I was thinking about the last birthday party you had. So much happened there, it was such a fun night! I remember you calling me the day of the party all worried about the decorations and who would be there! It turned out great. I was also thinking about the scavenger hunt your mom made the one year. You had so many wonderful birthday parties. I only wish you would have gotten your 18th! It's hard to tell what you would have pulled off :) I watched those tapes of me you and Holly the other day. It was kind of weird to watch them because I felt like crying but you kept saying goofy things and making silly faces to make me laugh. It reminded me of old days when I was upset and you'd make me laugh. I just heard something on the news a while ago about Earth Day. You always loved that your birthday was on Earth Day. I hope you are having a wonderful birthday celebration with eddie and britt and the many angels in heaven! I love ya girl!

"Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday Dear Lisa, Happy Birthday to you" It's hard to believe you would be eighteen years old today! And next month graduating, then who knows?...probably as Mrs. Shook said, a diplomat in some foreign land. Sometimes it's hard not to feel robbed by your sudden death. Hard for us, not you, I suppose. I imagine heaven is better than anything you're missing here. But it would have been nice if you could have experienced more of this life first. Oh well, I'm trying to stay upbeat today so I better not dwell too much on this. We all miss you so very much, I hope you know that. Well, I should leave for work. Have a good birthday in heaven, my sweet angel! Love Always, Mom ... Oh, and Happy Earth Day too. I just remembered you thought it was cool that your birthday is also Earth Day. Love ya, sweetie...

*Lisa* Hey gurlie! Happy Easter! I hope that you had a great day with the Westmar angels in Heaven but I know you all probably had a blast. I am sorry that I haven't wrote to you in awhile but I have been busy with school ( you know all the last minute things before you graduate.) I can't believe that we have just a month of school left and then we graduate. It's going to be wierd not seeing your smiling face at graduation but I know that you will be in Heaven smiling and you will be with us physically and mentally. Well I have to be going but I will write you later! *Love Ya and Happy Easter*

Wow! I just stumbled across this site. I have to admit that I don't know who Lisa is or what happened to her, but from reading from some of the emails, I can tell that she really was a great person and tried her best to make everyone's day awsome. To everyone who actually knew Liza, you were so lucky. She really sounds like one of the few truely gifted in the world. This just makes me think how we never really know when we will go and that we should treat everyday as if it were our last. I would like to thank you for this site becuase it has made me think about the more important things in life. Thanks. Again, I am really sorry for whatever happened to Liza. -Elise-

Hi sweet baby, I came here a few minutes ago (always checking for new messages, and delighted with your recent messages from "new" people...thank you everyone, I mean that sincerely!) I just read the one from Tyler, and thought "Oh my Gosh!" I thought it was just me, but I see you so much in that "Concrete Angel" video too. She really does look like a Little Lisa. It's a heartbreaking video, I feel so bad for children who endure that in their lives... Mary Smeltzer is getting married next month and her bridal shower was today. Gail and I sat and talked about you forever, I love her insights about you and the spirit world. But we had to stop because we were making Tarah cry. She misses you so badly. What a misfortune for her... her two closest friends, you and Britt, leaving her within four months. Keep your eye on her and send her a hug. She looked like she could use it... I took Alyvea to Walmart and Burger King last night. We talked about her Aunt Lisa, now that she's old enough to really carry on a conversation. She thought it was funny that you called her "Liver". Her PopPop Clise died last week. She said everyone was crying at the funeral. She said "I don't know WHY they were crying. We're going to see him again when we go to heaven!" How's that for insight from a four year old? Your new little niece Graci gets baptised tomorrow. That little snot will NOT wake up when I'm around. I think I've only seen her eyes once... Well, I suppose I better get off here. Love you Lisa! XOXO Mom

Losing someone is,through my eyes, the hardest thing anyone will ever have to go through. But I just wanted to say to remember the memories and the good times. Things will get better. She is watching over you from Heaven. My deepest thoughts,love,and sympathy out to all of you. *LOVE*ALWAYS* ~NIKOL*VINCI~

Today makes 5 years since I lost my Dad... and I was thinking of other loved ones that I have lost. Eventually I went to the "Condolences" site (one of my "favorites") and was catching up on Lisa's page. Lois you are one strong and special person; I am sure that you think of your daughter almost constantly. It was such a tragedy when you lost her; I am so sorry and feel for you and your family. I still can't believe the number of young ones that have been taken from the Westmar community. Your strength amazes me and inspires me when I am feeling low; I can only imagine the pain that you have experienced since Lisa went to Heaven. To lose a child has to hurt so very much; yet you have helped others even as your hearts have been broken. God Bless You, Lois and the rest of Lisa's family, you are really special.

Dear Lisa, even though i dont know you ive found myself thinking about you lately. it has made me wonder why. Well i finnally figured it out Today March 24 is the one year anniversary of my friend *Noels* death(he died a few weeks b4 April 12 his 16th bday). and from reading everything written on here about you and i have read everything you remind me a lot of him. always chipper and smiling. i dont understand why such *Angels* have to be taken from this earth. Although i know both of you are in a better place. I just think that Angels should be kept on earth rather than taken from the peole who love them SO VERY much. Ms. Wade, i know ive told you but im truly sorry for your loss i know its not the same as a friend to be lost as a daughter but i know the pain. and im sure Noel and Lisa are VERY VERY happy watching over us. RIP Noel Gurley and Lisa Wade Angels Taken FAR to soon Lots of Love *~*Cristy*~*

Hi baby! Happy St Patrick's Day! I was thinking of you today (okay, so I think of you everday) But on St Patrick's Day, you always liked me to fix a green meal... green chicken, green potatoes, green beans, green jello, green Koolaid, and on and on and on... You were always so fun, you really got "into" your holidays. As the last person who wrote on here, I'm am also thankful for this site. Brian is a such great guy (Brian I know you read these... just wanted to say I remembered Heather's death anniv is coming up this week. I have a small gift for you and Nancy to let you know I'm thinking of you, but I haven't got it in the mail yet, but I will soon. Thanks for all you do with this site!) Okay, back to you Leese. I saw Burke's mom at church yesterday. She said she felt led to tell me that half the sailors on Burke's ship "know" you from Burke talking about you to them. And every country he goes to, he wears your "Lisa" shirt in it. So "you" have been making your way around the world via the US Navy *smile* (I wonder if Burke ever visits this site?) But then I think that you are probably travelling with Burke as his guardian angel, so you've been visiting these countries in spirit with him. Just don't get too engrossed in having fun that you forget to look out for him. I know you can't circumvent God's will in things, but do what you can okay? I've thought before, when people talk about guardian angels "So just where was Lisa's angel the night she died?" But then when I thought more about it, I decided that when it's God's will for you to return to heaven, your angel has to step back and let things happen, I can just imagine the look of awe and delight on your face as Eddie met you and escorted you into heaven... and you getting to hug Great Grandma and Aunt Dot again... and getting to meet people you never knew, like your Grandad Wade and my grandpap Broadwater *smile* I know you had to be using your favorite word ("AWESOME") that night! I'm happy for you baby... sad for us, but happy for you!... Anyway, back to Marcia (Burke's mom) I think she was upset because she made me cry when she told me what she did. But I told her they weren't sad tears. It's just so "awesome" for me when I see how many lives you affected and still affect. It reminded me of when Ashley McCutcheon wrote that she has pictures of you all over her dorm room, and when people ask about them, she gets to tell them what a great person you were. I sure hope she becomes that author and writes that book about you. I can't wait to see what she has to say about "our special angel". Well, "Lisa Lou", I better go. I love you and miss you. XOXOXOXO Mom PS...What a nice surprise today! I was listening to an old Karen Carpenter cassette that I had and halfway through it, you must have accidently taped over it for about five seconds, because I got to hear you making up a song. You sang "I am a Christian, and what that means is" and that's when you must have noticed you were taping on the wrong tape and stopped because that's when it went back to Karen. But thanks for the few seconds of "you".

Hi to all of the Wade's! I haven't been or written on here in awhile, and I was running another search and this came up again. Thanks to all of the entries on here, I have been living my life so much more. I take time to look at the little things I never noticed before. I have never lost someone close to me like you have Lisa (and Eddie), so I don't know how exactly how it feels, I can only imagine. I am so sorry to everyone who knew Lisa, but I am sure God is happy to have her back in heaven. She truly sounds like an angel. Thank you for making this website, and for being such loving people. It means so much. God Bless you!

I'd like to issue my condolences to the Wade's. Lisa looked like a beautifal girl. I hope you guys get through this tragedy slowly but without too many bumps in the road. A good friend of mine died in 1999, so I know what it's like. Stay strong. Lisa is where the truck cant hurt her now

To all the people who didn't know Lisa, but still take the time to write on here, thank you. I'm glad Lisa still touches lives, and it brightens my day when you tell us so. Christy, thank you for the poems. *smile* Very touching. Again thanks. Mrs. Shook, one of Lisa's teachers, said at her funeral that the best way for us to honor Lisa's memory is for all of us to be a little bit like her... and though you didn't know her personally, you are. Love, Lois

I came to the virtual condolences link to express my sympathy to those involved in today's Rhode Island club fire tragedy. I began to read the passages for your daughter and her friend Eddie. I was struck by the love you continue to show her in time of her death. I myself have three boys, 15, 10, and 8. I pray every day for God to keep them safe and I don't know how I could survive a loss as great as yours. But the one thing I do believe is that your child is up in heaven smiling down on you. I'm sure she is there with you for the weddings, babies, holidays, etc. that your family is sharing. I think it is so very beautiful that you are willing to write to her constantly. Even if you didn't, I'm sure she knows how much you miss her. I pray for your continued strength and for blessings in each and every way for you.

In Loving Memory of Lisa Michelle Wade Its hard to know just what to say. When a mother's angel goes away A child so sweet, so dear and bright She gave a brilliance to the night She was to all our sweet angle child With smile so warm that is beguiled Touching lives where ere she went Proving Lisa was truly heaven sent My heart goes out to you Ms Wade as you have seen your baby laid In ground as cold as bricker's clay; But, she is in heaven on this day. She's up there surly looking down On all the people of this, her town Looking down and smiling for ever Knowing we will forget her, Never She touched our lives in every way As she bounced through her day Each was a life she helped to live Teaching us all just how to forgive. Forgive them, Lord, for accidents Forgive him, Lord, as he repents Forgive the man who drove the car And sent me here from home so far Lots Of Love Sincerly, Cristy Rowe xoxo

Hi baby, I was just sitting here reading what Mr. Ack wrote to you. It's funny because just the other day I was reading the poem he wrote for you after you died... How you walked with a bounce in your step (you really did, you know *smile* I don't know anyone else who exuded an aura of contentment and happiness as you did) Anyway, I keep that poem with my other treasured papers, like the Mother's Day email I got from Laura Webb, which she said that you always said how much you loved me and knew I loved you and would bend over backwards to give you the things you wanted. That was my first Mother's Day after your death, and I don't think I've ever received a nicer or more cherished gift than that letter. I also have the letter written by Lydia Marsh on behalf of the cross country team, thanking me for my support. That was nice too *smile* Just wish I had been there to hear her "present" it. I'm glad her mom sent it to me... and I've saved tons of other notes, emails and letters from your friends. I'm going to make a folder of them eventually, along with all the entries on this condolence page. Your friends have been the greatest, keeping me a part of their lives. I love them. Anyway, it was so nice to see Mr. Ack write on here. I dug out his poem to print here. It was, and is, so touching... A WALK WITH A FRIEND It seems like yesterday you walked through our school, So willing and eager to learn the golden rule. Your smile was lovely and it made our day, It brought sunshine in and drove gray clouds away. You walked with a bounce and lived life to it's fullest, As a student and friend you were one of the coolest. While you walk in the clouds with Eddie tonight, Our memories of you we will hold dear and tight. We will see you again as our lives will end. We look forward to that reunion and, A Walk With a Friend. I'll miss you Dearly. Love, Mr. Ack (former teacher)... Well "Lisa Loo", I guess I'll get off here and get something done, after taking my little trip down memory lane. You know I love you and miss you dearly. Behave (*haha* yeah right) XOXO Mom ... PS. If you're trying to tell me something in my dreams, you're going to have to make them a little clearer. I'm not making much sense of SpongeBob Squarepants watches, and the weird weird dream about Gizmo and Ernie. Simplify them for me, remember I'm a dumb blonde. *haha*

Hey Lisa, It has been awhile since I have talked to you. Eddie and you have been on my mind very much lately, memories of both of you keep popping up in my head. I went to Eddies memorial a few weeks ago and I could not help but think you two were right there with us. I think I told your mom this before, but my daughter reminds me very much of you. She is so bubbly and full of life! She lives every moment to the fullest and I could not pick a better person for her to be like than you! Thinking of you Eddie always, keep him in line, Mr. Ack

So protect us all. :) We all miss you soo much, I will never forget you! I know I have said this like 1000 times, but you were that special type of person that could brighten anyones day. Thank you. School is going okay, the regular thing, classes, and other stuff. I got your Moms Christmas card in the mail, it was really thoughtful of her to do something like that, I will did appreciate it.

~*Lisa*~ Hey gurlie! I guess that you heard the news. Another Westmar student came to join the "angel group" in Heaven. Welcome her and make her feel comfortable. I know that people down here are upset! Look over them and keep them safe. Please keep a close eye on Logan! I dont know the true story on him cause so many things are going around! I heard that he died last night but then other people told me he was in serious condition. Just keep an eye on everyone down here and keep them safe! In just a couple months we will be graduating as the class of 2003. I know you, Britt, Jeff and Eddie wont be with us physically but our "angel group" will be with us spiritually and mentally. Well I better be going so I will talk to you later! ~*Love and Miss You Angel*~

Hey, I dont know you nor your family but as i sat here reading things people have written i started to cry, my heart goes out to everyone that loves cares and misses you. I know the feeling of losing a loved one.It is the hardest thing in the world i think keeping your memory Alive through here and on your website as well as Eddie's is a marvelous thing. I cam across this website looking for Uniforms, so i guess its fate! You seem like a wonderful person and i know that you are an Angel up above now. I wanted to write a poem(i can write well) But there just arent words to describe how i feeel, i dont know what to say but To Family and Friends Im truly sorry for your loss. Just Remember Keep Your Chin Up AND NEVER lose the memories shared with Young Lisa! *~Cristy~*

Hi Lil Lisa! Happy New Year! I was going to try and refrain from writing today. Sometimes I feel it's silly to bear my soul to the world on here, but it really feels good to write "to" you...so who cares what the world thinks, right? *wink* I worked today in Cumberland and was talking to a friend down there. He said he spent three hours the other night reading and crying over your entries on here. And it just made me want to rush home and read them all over again as well... Well, I ended up coming home and starting on dinner. We had grandma up from the nursing home for New Year's dinner. Dad just took her back so I had time to get one here and read some. You were (are) SOOOO loved baby girl! You really left a good legacy behind you for so many people to love and still miss you so badly! Eulah just brought us up a picture of you yesterday in an "Angel" frame, one of your silly little goofball expressions. I took one look at it and started crying *smile* But the tears turned to smiles as I became thankful for the time I had with you... I ordered a pin a few weeks ago called the "Healing Heart" pin. It came on Sunday when I was working in Cumberland at the post office. I got to open it and it was beautiful, a silver pin with a gold bandaid across it. Then I remembered that it (Sunday) was Crissy Crowe's three year death anniversary, and immediately knew that it was meant to be given to them, and so I gave it to Randy and Tammy. Now I have to order me a new one... Oh well, that's okay. Well, I've pretty much written a book here, so maybe I better stop. Tell all my loved ones up there I send my love and again, Happy New Year! Love you, forever and a day. XOXOXO Mom

Merry Christmas Angel! I wanted to say that before I head to bed. We (me, Erica and Scott) went down to grandma and pap paps this evening (Christmas Eve) She was showing off her new diamond that Scott gave her. So I guess we get to have fun planning a wedding now! I sure wish you were here to be part of all the excitement. You'll have to be sure to try extra hard to let your vibes come through to us *smile* to let us know you're here in spirit. After I left grandma's I delivered your "Lisa" presents for you. I'm sure they'll be well liked. Well sweet baby, I guess I'll go. Just wanted you to know that, as always, I'm thinking of you and missing you. XOXOXOXO Mom

I hope that you have a Merry Christmas in Heaven even though all of us down here misses you very much. Keep an eye on everyone this season and keep them safe. Yesterday Janice and me was going towards Cumberland and we saw a rainbow and Janice told me that you were playing "Rainbow Tag" with us...LoL! Then I happened to think of the times that we all went to the mall. Just little things like that make me think of you. You are missed alot down here! Lois and Family, I hope that you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! If you need anything even if it is to talk, I will be here for you! Well Lisa, I have to be going but I promise I will write you later on! Love and Miss you ~*Merry Christmas Angel*~

Lisa....hey!! i miss you so much. i wish we would have had more memories together than what we had. you always made my day brighter just by hearing you voice or reading an e mail that you sent to me after i had written you. it makes me so mad when ppl say that things will get better when they havn't gotten better, they've just gotten piled on top of with all of lifes other plans and junk. for thtat i feel bad. i still havn't came to your grave and i'm sorry , i guess i don't want to realize that your gone. i am trying to move on in my life and when i sit and do nothing i always end up thinking of you and how much i miss you and love you. i need to call your mom and see how she is . i havn't talked to her in a long time. i guess because i dont like to face tha fact that ur gone and calling the house i'm afraid i might accidentally ask to talk to you. i guess i just want ppl to know how wonderful you always made ppl feel. no matter what u were a friend to everyone and you always were there for them no matter what was going on in your life that wasn't all Peaches and cream. well i'm gonna go but i'll be checking in a lot more often and lois if you read this please e mail me cuz i wanna see how ur doing. lis i love u and miss you and i always will.

Hello my sweet angel! You know I come here everyday, and it's always a nice surprise when I see a new entry. After I read the last entry I thought I'd write you too. *smile* You are so missed, Lisa!!!! And I love it when strangers write to say how you've impacted their lives. It is so nice to see you still "work your magic". By the way, dad was home alone the other day and kept hearing footsteps upstairs. He even came up and looked around to see if anyone had gotten into the house. I told him it was probably you, and he should have said "hello" *wink* You know how dense he and I are and getting your subtle messages, so you had to do something audible for him. He misses you so bad, he just seem to get over feeling bad. I tell him you wouldn't want him to be that way, but I can't get through to him. So you may have to come down and kick his butt. *L*... I put a cute gingerbread girl and boy between your and Eddie's graves for Christmas. They are really cute. I haven't made it down with the extension cords yet to light them up, but I will... We have a new pet here. Andrea bought me a hedgehog (dad is thrilled...yeah right *L*) for Christmas. He is still kind of shy but really cute. His name is Hank... We actually put a tree up this year (okay Ann did it, I think she was afraid we'd have none or, worse yet, a little "Charlie Brown" tree like last year) but I did help decorate the house. And I have all my shopping and wrapping done so I guess I'm doing pretty good this year... Erica and Scott took me and dad to a Japanese Steak house for my birthday last week. I wish you could have been there. You would have LOVED it! It's right up your alley!... Well, I better get off here. I love and miss you so much baby. Give everyone my love. XOXOXO Mom

Lisa, I know we've never actually met and I actually came to this site on accident. I'm sure it wasn't by accident if you know what I mean, fate probably had a hand in it. I wanted to say that I've been thinking a lot about what I have in my life and exactly how precious it is. You have helped me to realize that. The first time I came here I cried for hours. I spent days telling people I loved them, even people I hadn't talked to in awhile. I'm sorry it took me so long to come back, I was afraid to cry again, but I'm glad you gave me the strength to come back here to thank you. I noticed no one had writted in awhile, so I thought I should write to let everyone know you weren't forgotten in the least. I wish I had met you and maybe we'll meet some day, but for now thank you for helping me understand what's important. Thanks to your mom and dad for writing to you so often and thank you for sharing the love they have given you. You have helped me more than you know.

Hey Leese, It's been quite some time since I've written on here..I never get on the internet anymore, but believe me I've been thinking about you a lot! Yesturday was Thanksgiving, so Happy Thanksgiving! Things have been real tough lately, I only wish that I had you to talk to. I'm so grateful for the friends I have, but it seems like you just had some kind of special power of making things better or at least making things seem like they were better. I don't know what to do sometimes, but I try to stay positive for you and not be upset all the time. Everything reminds me of you, especially around the holidays. There are somedays when things are alright, and then somedays it seems like I just can't some to terms with you being gone. Last night I was on my laptop and I found that song we made with words from certain songs on the sound recorder. I think I laughed for 10 minutes. It's things like that that make me miss you, but at the same time they make me so glad that I had the chance to know you. I know you're watching down on all of us..I lush ya Leese!

Hi sweetie! Happy Thanksgiving! I was wondering today what you would be dressed like this year (you always dressed as either a Pilgrim or an Indian) or if you would have outgrown your annual ritual... Remember the year you girls dressed Aunt Dot up as an Indian (Minnie HaHa)? *smile* I cherish my memories... Today is Chrissy Crowe's (16th?) birthday, so give her a big hug from her mom and dad. I'm sure it was hard for them to be "thankful" today, but I talked to Tammy and they were coping. Well baby, I better go. Give everyone my love, we love and miss you! XOXO Mom

Dear Lisa, Thank you for sending me into my son's room. I know you're the reason why I went into my his room earlier than I usually do at bedtime. It's thanks to you that I was able to put the fire out in my his room. About a year ago I came accross this web site and was struck by the love that so many people feel towards you. I asked you to be my son's guardian angel and I truly believe that you are. I hope that things are getting easier for your family and friends that miss you so much. You're an inspiration to me and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sending me into my precious son's room. Your an angel in God's kingdom. Bless you, your family and friends. Adele

Hi Lisa! I wasn't aware that this page was still up and running, or I would stop in more often. I just wanted to let you know we are still missing you more than ever. I have really been thinking about you lately, mostly because my life is pretty stressful lately and when I get to the point when I can't take it anymore I always remember one of the last things you said to me. "Mary, you worry about everything too much." Remember it was back in August of 2000 when we were ordering pizza and wings at our house. In a way that was the most important advice I've ever been given, and I will remember it always. Andrea and I have been e-mailing each other a lot lately, I know you are happy about that. You were always trying to get us together to do stuff. And hopefully we will get to spend a lot of time together in upcoming months as we try to get this wedding together! So much to do. I wish you could be here, I really miss the old days, when the 4 of us used to have sooo much fun. Even though you never fell for our old alien tricks. Well, I better go before I get too emotional. Love you, Miss you!

Hey Lisa! Steve forwarded your mom's Halloween greeting to me, and I remembered this site. I am in college now leese! I actually made it! I've been thinking about you a lot lately. It would have been your senior year. I haven't been home to see any soccer games at all, and I feel really bad about it. I just wanted to thank you though Lisa, your memory keeps me motivated. I truly think of you nearly every day. I have your pictures scattered throughout my dorm room, and I look at them and remember you all of the time. Seeing your face gives me inspiration. I read a book called "Lovely Bones" about a girl that was taken too soon, but watches her family and friends from heaven, and it was very comforting to me. I know you see me, and watch out for me. You were always such a sweetheart, and I imagine you continue to be one up there in heaven. I have told many kids about you down here. Everytime someone walks into my dorm and looks at your pictures they ask about you, and why I have so many pictures of you up. I tell them all about you,your sense of humor,your good-heart, and they all say that you must have been a remarkable person. I reply that you are. I haven't been home for awhile Leese, and I don't know what's really going on, but I know Tyler is still not doing well, so stand by him Lisa, and keep him company through this. I was just sitting here reviewing your website again, and your memory came flooding back to me. Through laughter and tears I was remebering you, and thought I would write you a message. I am glad I had the pleasure of knowing you and being your friend and teammate, and I just wanted you to know that not a day goes by that I don't think of you. There is a portion of my heart that will forever be dedicated to your memory. I can feel your love around me all of the time, and I wanted to thank you for that. If I ever do become an author, I'm writing a book about you girl, so that the whole world can know how wonderful you are. *Lush* ya buches, forever!

My dearest sweet Lisa, It's almost 2 am and I just got up. I checked your site here as I do everytime I'm on the computer and read Holly's entry. (Holly, baby, I know how you feel! It seems harder and harder to deal with Lisa's death instead of easier.) I haven't slept well since September, I'm beginning to feel like a zombie from lack of rest. Dad is doing so poorly too and that is draining me. I feel like he's drowning and I'm trying to rescue him and instead he's pulling me under with him. I just don't know what to do for him. We need you to work your magic on us. I seem to cry over nothing anymore. I finally decided the other day that I think its because it's your senior year. Maybe I'll call and make an appointment with Valerie (my therapist) and talk to her... I went to the girls' soccer game Monday night (I've been to several, did I tell you that Danielle Grove is wearing your soccer spikes this season?) This one was senior night when they presented the seniors at the game and their parents walked them onto the field. Diane tried to get me to come down on field with them but I didn't. I said I didn't want to make a spectacle of myself by crying on the field in front of everyone, so I sat in the bleachers and watched and cried instead. Many of the girls mentioned you in their "my most memorable moment" part of their writeups. They also mentioned you and brought me up flowers and balloons for you to the bleachers. I left them at the cemetary for you on the way home. (Ann carved you a pumkin last night and lit it on your grave too) Casey Love came over and sat with me during the senior presentation. He is so thoughtful. (I love all of your friends so much, more than they probably know. Before I got up tonight I was having a dream that they asked me to speak at graduation and I was telling them how much they mean to me.) Tuesday night I went up to watch the boys last soccer game (Casey asked me). Tomorrow I am going to the cross country meet to watch Neil and the others run. I saw Dan Duncan Tuesday and promised I would get to his next football game too. See, your friends still keep me active in their lives. Well baby, I'm going to try to get back to sleep. I have to work in the morning, so I really need to get at least another hour or two. I love you sweetie, and miss you soooooo much. Take care of yourself. If you need me, you know where to find me (and even if you don't, come "talk" to me anyway *smile*) Love always, Mom

~*Hey*~ Well babe i am writing to apologize first, because i feel like i have neglected you and your family. I would have been at your lil thingy on the 20th for the 2 year candle lighting but i did not even know about it until that night after i got off of work. I am so SORRY. Lisa i find myself thinking of you so much lately and i miss you so bad. Sometimes i still catch myself going to call you or thinking about stopping in and getting you. It was so weird the other day at work i saw this girl and she looked soo much like you. I could not breathe whenever i saw her, she probably wondered what i was doing staring at her but it was so hard to look away. For Lace's bday i bought all of us a 3-way best friends charm and she took one end and i took the other and i stuck the middle piece on a necklace around a teddy bear and gave it to your mom for you. Geesh Leese i miss you so much and i really want to see your smiling face right now. It is so hard to face everyday missing you. Everyone keeps telling me that i should be over it by now and i simply tell them that you never "GET OVER IT" you just try to learn to live everyday facing it. It is such a slap in the face and whoever said time heals all pain was so mislead because the pain i feel inside is still just as strong as the day of the accident. I guess i am being selfish in a way because i will not let you go and i should so you can have fun and not worry about me but i have not found that place in my life yet .. i am sorry for that.

~Lisa~ Hey gurl! I am sorry that I haven't wrote to you in awhile. It has been two years now since you have left us and not one day goes by that I don't think of you. You left a great impact on everyone you knew! It's kinda hard to believe that you have been gone for two years. It just seems like yesterday you were here with us!! Tell Eddie, Jeff, and Britt that I said "Hey!" I see your dad every morning @ the bus stop and I always wave @ him. He makes me think about you and the times that we had together! Well I just thought that I would stop in and say "hey"!!! ~Love and Miss Ya!~ *Julie*

Hi baby! Well, Friday was your two year death anniversary (or your 2nd "ReBirthday" if I'm trying to stay positive *smile*), so it's been 732 days since you left us all so suddenly... unbelievable... sometimes it seems like it was just yesterday, and sometimes it seems like an eternity since I saw your smiling face. Erica and I were just watching the video of her 21st birthday party, laughing like idiots at your hilareous "Sally" show, interviewing everyone at the party. You were such a nut! *LOL* It must have made Erica feel good, because she took it with her when she left... guess she wants to watch it with Scott or show you off at work *L* Man, you don't know how much we miss your joking and fooling around here! Last week, dad and I and Christie Crowe's parents (have you two met in heaven yet? I like to think so *smile*) went to visit the Amish family who lost a son last December. Melvin was your pen pal Margaret's little brother. We said that night that it would be neat if the three of you were watching from heaven as the three families met. We had such a great time up there visiting. Melvin has ten brothers and sisters, and they were all home so we could meet them. It was a wonderful night of sharing our memories of our three special angels. Dad, Andrea and I went Friday evening to the Amish school Fall Fundraiser for awhile, so Ann got to meet them too. Then when we got home, Ann and her new man Shaun (you would like him) and I went to the cemetary for awhile. A bunch of your friends were going to show up after the football game. And they did...I can't even begin to name everyone that was there. I bet there were at least fifty of your friends there. It was so neat, we just sat in the grass around your and Eddie's spots, holding our candles and talking. It was nice to see that they still remember and miss you as much as we do. I enjoyed spending time with them. (Tyler C. told me he checks here everyday for new messages, so "Hi Tyler"! *smile*) Speaking of Tyler, I asked how Tyler Schramm is doing from the wreck. They said he makes eye contact when you talk to him but nothing more. The insurance company is pushing to move him out of the hospital to a nursing home. The senior class is having a hoagie sale to raise money for him. I'll be sure to send a donation from you. But can you help from there? Be with him and encourage him to heal and come back to his family and friends. It's got to be hard for his family to watch him in limbo, not dead but not really alive either. Let him feel your presence and do what you can, please? I know it isn't up to you, but by now I figure you have God wrapped around your little finger, so join us in praying for Tyler, okay? *smile* Thanks baby, I know you'll go the extra mile. Give everyone a big hug for me... Grandma, Aunt Dot, Hal, LaGratta, Eddie, Britt, Jeff, Christie, Heather and Melvin. Speaking of Eddie I was in your room the other day and found a homemade valentine from Eddie to you, saying he liked you. I'm going to give it to Libby since it's in his handwriting. Well my sweet baby, I'll let you go. I love you and miss you so very very much. XOXOXO Mom

Lisa, Hey there girl, it is September 11th and though the nation is grieving the loss of the fallen heroes from the world trade center, I can't get you off my mind. I feel so bad for the families that have lost people because I know how they feel. It's so unreal to me that it has almost been 2 years since you left us. I could really use some *Lisa advice* right now, but I'm trying to live on all that you've told me in the past. I heard three six mafia tonight and was thinking about our fun times with their songs..I just wanted to stop by and say I love ya sweetie!!

Hi my sweet baby! I haven't written you on here since May, I think, so I've done a pretty good job of weaning myself from "bearing my soul" on here. But you've been on my mind so much lately, I just had to write. Don't tell your sisters because they'll tease me about it, but I even cried hysterically over a "Little House on the Prairie" show the other day. A girl was rescued from a well and the mother was crying, thanking the man who saved her. And I just started crying uncontrollably (thankfully I was home alone *L*), not because of her, but wishing I had been able to thank someone for saving YOUR life. But I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I just have to have faith that God had a good reason for what happened. I like watching "Little House", Laura as a teenager reminded me a lot of you (awnriness and in looks too), so now that she is "grown" on the show, I can look at her and imagine how you would look as you matured... Speaking of crying, I went to Altoona mall last week. I was sitting in the food court eating a chicken salad, and it reminded me of the dr. appointment you had in Baltimore after your jaw surgery, when your jaws were still wired shut. You, Andrea and I went to Towson mall and at the food court, Ann and I got chicken salads and we got you some type of broth to drink through a straw. You thought these boys were staring at you and it made you uncomfortable plus you were sick of your liquid diet and really wanting our salads. The tears were welling up in your eyes and you looked so miserable. Andrea looked at me and said "My salad isn't very good" and I said "Mine isn't either" (By the way, we were lying, if you didn't know) And we got up, pitched all three lunches and bought three chocolate milkshakes. Anyway, I was Alttona mall, eating my salad and thinking of that. Usually my memories of you make me smile, but this time all I wanted to do was cry. I sat there, all choked up, trying not to make a spectacle of myself, sitting there all alone and crying. I ended up doing what we did in Baltimore, got up and pitched the salad in the garbage and walked away... I saw Brandy the other day. She's working at the HavALot. She gave me a big hug. I can tell by the things she writes to you on here that she misses you so much. And it's nice to see that your friends still visit here and write to you too. Its nice to see that you are still so alive in so many people's hearts. *smile* A lot of your friends were at the Lisa 5K Run a few weeks ago too... Lacey, Dub, Sid, Bobby, Holly, well, too many to try to write here so I might as well stop trying. But so many of your friends were there and that was so good to see. Steve must have thought the world of you because he does such a spectacular job organizing the race. Britt's dad, brother, sister and grandfather were in the race, I bet that made her happy. I'd love to see the looks on your faces as you watch what goes on in our lives... I guess you know your sister Deanna is married now. Her and JR got married last weekend. I think they are very happy together and he'll make a great stepfather for Livvy. They had flowers on their table at the reception in memory of you. I put them on your grave on the way home. It's weird though, I look up at your spot every day when I drive past and the flowers still look as pretty as they did at the wedding, and that was eight days ago!... One more thing, then I guess I'll close. We went on our cruise in June (me, dad, Erica, Andrea, Josh, Holly and Kelli) We all had a great time. But what I wanted to say was that, in the airplane, as we went through the clouds, I thought of you and your dream, remember? A few weeks before you died you had the dream that you and Eddie were walking in the clouds together, and you said it was the most awesome thing! Well, we were up IN the clouds, and they were the big billowy puffy kind of clouds. And I could just imagine what you were experiencing in that dream, how awesome it would be to walking on them. I told dad to look too. I was mesmorized, I just couldn't take my eyes off of those clouds. I told dad "Just look at that! Don't you envy her?" Of course we have different outlooks, it just made him sadder and made him miss you more, but I was happy for you. I was driving home from work the other day and the same type of clouds were in the sky, so pretty against the blue sky! I was watching them, and telling you I just wished I could see you up there on one of them, waving a big exaggerated wave down at me. I know I'll see you eventually, but it would be nice to catch glimpses of you now and then. Eventually, I'll get a big hug and welcome to heaven from you. But in the meantime, have fun up there and send us down some love (we sure need it!) And be sure to be with Tyler and Mitch, encourage them to heal, and give them lots of love and comfort. Help them to feel your presence as they recuperate... And help Heather send love down to her mom and dad. You are very special to Brian and I'm sure he'd appreciate a "hello" from you. Help Heather to keep him safe. He has a hard job, fighting all those wild fires out west, so help protect him if you can... I love you sweet baby, more than I can ever tell you in words, and miss you so very much. Take care, be good, and enjoy heaven. Till I see you again, I'll be loving and missing you. XOXOXO Mom "What the caterpillar thinks is the end of his life, the butterfly knows is just the beginning."

Hello, you don't know me, but I have heard so much about you. I am Julies b/f, and she has told me so much about you. You seemed like a wonderful friend, and I think it is lovely how all your friends are keeping your memory alive, around your home town, and on the net. I was reading these messages here, and I started to cry, so, I thought I would send ya one too, to let ya know that I am reading them. I don't know what else to write, cuz I really didn't know ya, but I feel for you loved ones. I was reading the poetry Julie wrote about you, and her other friends, and it was so beautiful, I just had to let it out. Well, it was nice talking to you, and I hope your family and friends know you love them...

Hey Lisa, I haven't talked to you in so long. Sorry about that. School and soccer practice is almost starting. Only about one more month of vacation left. I just came back from vacation yesterday from Ocean City, I took the CD your mom made and listened to it on the way down. I miss you so much! The summer has been pretty good so far. Especially the beach, I loved it. But I need to be getting in shape for soccer, it starts on August 15th, I am going to be so out of breath and tiered after that. *lol* Well Lush ya Lisa :)

Hey Lisa!! It's Brandy again. I dream about you, last night. See you, didn't know you're dead. Keep asking questions about everyone and your family. And kinda little shame about what everyone went thought. Went they find out you was dead. I told you, don't be shame about it.You left us, with loving, funny memories about you. Lisa, you smile at me and said " ok Brandy". When you left and I woke up. It was such a wonderful dream. Just wish that, you enjoy heaven with your friends. ( Eddie,Brittany, and Jeff). Well good-bye for now. LYLAS, BRANDY

Leese! Hey babe!!! I miss you bunches! I haven't wrote in what seems like forever, but of course you know that doesn't mean I don't think about you each and everyday! As you probably know Schramm and Mitch were in a pretty bad wreck, when I found out I flew down there, Schramm has been my best guy friend since 1st grade. He's just the first guy I ever had a crush one, the guy I can always call, and he's everything. Well Mitch seems to be pulling through very smoothly which is excellent, but Schramm is having a little trouble. He's in Baltimore shock trauma and I've managed to see him once but its hard to get down there half as often as I'd like too. When I was there he squeezed my hand the whole time and stared right into my eyes, I knew he knew I was there with him, but he can't talk, and it makes it real hard. Every night I pray to you to be with him and to bring everyone else up there with you too. He's need your support and your bright smile Leese. Send him back to Coney with me please, I'm just asking you don't take him with you...I don't think I could physically or emotionally handle it. I haven't had to go through any of my years of school without him, and I'm not about to start my senior one without him. So help him, tell him to be strong..and if I could I'd be with him every second of the day. Lay by his bedside..he'll feel you with him..I know it, I always do! Well Leese I miss you and I know you won't let me down...Love ya bunches! Jordan

Hi baby, So much has happened since the last time I wrote. I'm trying to wean myself from bearing my soul on here, but sometimes it's nice to "talk" to you this way. I guess you know the soccer club had a Lisa Wade Benefit Concert ("Wadestock" *L*), don't you? Of course you do, because you showed up there. It was neat, I almost missed it until Kathy Lee brought it to my attention. Scott Lee said he put you in charge of the weather *L* and it rained all week, but not on the day of your concert...until the Distorted Penguins started playing. As soon as they started, the rain started, but they kept on playing. About the fourth song, they dedicated to you "Cloud 9", and halfway through the song, the rain stopped, the clouds parted and the sun came out... it just had to be you showing up :) All four bands were great and we really appreciated them, and all the work that Steve Amann does to keep your memory alive also. Dad and I went to the sports banquet and helped present the Lisa Awards for this year: Amel Morris, Jason Wampler, Dub Brandlen, Ashley McCutcheon and Pam Morton. I also mailed graduation gifts to your friends from you... angel tassles. I hope they like them. And I finally got around to sending pics and news clippings etc to your out of town friends. Jeff Packer wrote me yesterday to thank me and say how much he thought of you... I went to Bloomington School graduation last week. The student councel was presenting an award to a female athlete in memory of you and one to a male athlete in memory of Eddie. I presented your award (to Ashley Metcalfe) I almost started to cry when I was talking about you, but got myself under control. Didn't want you laughing at me *LOL*... Oh, and by the way, I like your newest trick with the balloons on your grave. You used to bust them when I put them on there, now you just "take" them. The last few times we've given you balloons, they've come loose and blew away. Somehow I have a feeling my buddy Dan is up there teaching you new tricks. Well, I can be just as stubborn as both you and LaGratta. Everytime you take a balloon, I'll just replace it. *L* So, ha! ... You're 5K run is coming up in July. I was talking to Britt's dad. He asked if I minded if he was a sponser for the race and put "In Memory Of Brittany Paton" on the back of the shirt. I said of course I don't mind. I LOVE the idea of having Britt be a part of the day!... We're going on our cruise this weekend. How I wish you were here to go with us. It would be a blast! Be sure to show up and make sure we realize that you are with us. Sometimes we can be so dense *L*... Well baby, I have to go. I love you, forever and a day. Until we see your beautiful smile, we'll be remembering it in our minds. Love you baby XOXOXOXOXOXO Mom

I am not sure how I came to be on this site, but It felt rude to just wander back out, without aknowledging the spirit of such of lovely young soul. How loved you are in this world of trials and tribulations. I was once told to fear life rather than death, for it is in life that we sleep the slumber of death, and in death that we arise to the awakening of life..... You seem to have accomplished alot in the short time that you where here, you learned to love unconditionally from the looks of these endless emails.... a lesson that some never learn in a life time. Thank you beautiful girl for reminding me that time is short and that love is the only real lesson we need to learn in life. unending blessings to your Mother, your kin, your friends........ sheree

I just know that you are with all of us. I just dont know what to do graduation day next year, when we are sitting there..not as a whole class, but only as a piece. Because without You, Eddie, Brittany, and Jeff, we are not a whole anymore. But I will save a seat especially for you. I love you girl!! I'll try to keep in touch. Love, Carla Robertson

Hi sweet angel! Another hour and it will be your birthday... big 17! Wish you were here so I could see how much your looks have matured. I wanted to come on and wish you a very very good birthday baby! We miss you so much. Ann was just playing a song yesterday, Lonestars "Not A Day Goes By" that sums it all up *smile* We miss you so much! I came home today with two balloons and seventeen red roses to bring to you tomorrow. And when I came through the door, Ann was there with a big balloon bouquet and a dozen red roses for you! So I guess your grave is going to really stand out tomorrow huh? All eyes will be on you when the cars drive past. I can see you smiling now, pleased with all the attention. Well baby, I better go, it's storming outside and you're probably yelling at me to get off here, like I would be doing you if you were here (you little computer hog *L*) I hope you have a terrific birthday party up there. Give my love to Eddie, Britt, Jeff, Chrissy, Heather, Grandma, Aunt Dot, Hal... and all the NEW friends that I know you've made... you sure had a way of making friends. *smile* Love you baby, forever and a day. XOXO Mom

Sorry that it has taken me so long to do this but now it is getting done! This is to a girl that i didnt know or would have wanted to know i life cause of the way she looked like a prep and yet i was told that she was the nicest person! But the one thing that i learned is that you are always there to hear me talk to you and hear my problems, even thought it has been a while sence i have come up and talked to you, and yet in one one you have become a best friend to me! I wanted to wish you a happy early birthday (4-22)! And that i promise that i will be up to see you!

Lisa, Hey it's been a long time since i have talked to you on here. Your mom came to the play i was in and i know u were there too. I was talking to my mom, and in the play i have to talk about a little red-headed girl and i said that u will always be mine. Your mom sent me a valentine from her (the little red-haired girl)that was really nice. I tried calling to tell your mom "thanks" but no one was home. So I thought i would tell her on here "THANKS Lois, You are an awesome person, I love you, I was really surprised to see you at the play. I can't say how much i appreciate you coming, when i saw you sitting out there, I tried so hard to give you what you paid for ;), thanks" Well i will talk to you later. I will c-ya when the time is right. Love You forever.

But I'm sure Easter's in heaven have to be spectacular! Give everyone (Aunt Dot, Grandma, Hal, Dan) big hugs from me. Love you and miss you... XOXO Mom (Hope you liked your duck.

Hey baby! Yesterday was St Patrick's Day, so naturally I thought of you (as if I don't think of you everyday *smile*) But I knew if you were here, we would be eating green chicken, green mash potatoes w/green gravy, etc etc... You were the one who always looked forward to that, and made it fun to come up with ways to make the food green. You silly goof *L*... Just thought I'd say hi since I was thinking of you. Love you, "Lisa Lou" (don't know when or why I ever started calling you that, but just remembered it) and Miss you... XOXOXOXO Mom

Well, I don't know where to begin..every time I start to write something, my eyes fill up with tears and by the time I get them dry again I've forgotten what I wanted to say. Like that's any big surprise..you know how I am! I remember the very last time you and I were in a car together. You missed the bus to school and came in, woke me up, and asked if I'd give you a rise. So here I am, half asleep and still in my pajama's driving you to school. When we get there, you said you needed a note for being late. So you gave me your notebook and I jotted down a quick note for you, as you were getting out of the car you read it out loud, laughed and said "You're so stupid!" I wrote, "Please excuse Lisa from being late for school, she missed the miss!" We just laughed as 'you' re-wrote your note and gave it to me to sign. Its the little things like that I miss so much. I don't have anyone around to make me laugh and smile the way that you use to. Everywhere I go I'm constantly seeing somebody who 'from a certain angle' looks just like you..so I get all excited and my heart starts pounding and even though I know its not you, for a split second I just feel like you are here with us again. Then reality sinks in and I know that its not you and its never going to be, and my heart gets broken all over again. IAll I want is for my life to make sense again, I want to be happy and carefree the way I use to be when I had you with me. Do you remeber the time I came into your room and there you and some of your friends were glueing your porcelein dolls back together. Some-how your shelf fell down, and you were fitting the pieces back together and glueing them so that mom wouldn't find out and get mad! I need you to help me pick up my pieces and glue them back together..I can't do it alone. I didn't mean to turn this into a sob session, I just wanted to let you know that you are always on my mind and in my heart..and sometimes I miss you so bad its hard to breathe. I hope you are happy in Heaven with Eddie and Britt..feel free to send some smiles and laughter our way! I love you so much girl, and I wish we were together again. Sending all of my love to Heaven for you..until I see that beautiful smile again! Love you sweetie!

Hi baby, Just a quick hello and "Happy Valentine's Day". I'm sure you know we all miss you dearly. We brought you balloons, stuffed animals, etc today to the cemetary but you don't need those reminders to know how much we love you. I guess we need them *L* you know, feel the need and desire to keep giving you "things" Oh well, what can I say... I miss you sweetheart, more than I can ever put into words. Oh! Remember Margaret, your Amish penpal? Be looking for her little brother Melvin and take care of him. He died in December when a car hit him while he was getting off the school bus. I wasn't sure if he was Margaret's brother or not until I called the school to ask for the Beachy's address. I wanted to write his parents a letter to hopefully encourage them, and I asked the school if Margaret was his sister. I wrote to her parents and they wrote back, which was very nice. We're planning to meet sometime soon, they've invited us to their home, so I'll get a chance to meet Margaret. Rachel (her mom) said that Margaret was very fond of you... Brandy wrote a poem for Eddie's birthday. It was in the paper. She mentioned you twice in it... once hoping you've finally found romance *L* and also she asked Eddie to "tell Lisa I'll cherish her for eternity". You have so many people missing you baby *smile* It will be so nice to see you when our time on earth is over... Well baby, I better go. Have fun... Love you! XOXOXO Mom

Dear Lisa, I have had you on my mind today. I was looking over letters from your friends, when I saw a letter from your Mother. She said Burke and Tibsy came up to your house to show off their uniforms. It's hard to believe that Burke has really grown up and joined the navy and is now on his own. I do want you to know he thinks of you often and for Christmas he got to come home for 3 days and we got him one your tee shirts,he cried....You are missed by many people and will never be forgotten...Love to you and your family,Marcia and Al Parsons...

Hi Lisa. I'm sorry I have never written you, That aside, I think of you almost everyday. I wonder about a lot of things. Like, if you can see me, and if you miss being here. I know we all miss having you here. Soccer season just wasn't the same without you. Spring soccer never is either. I remember when we tied GC United in our championship game that one year, and I remember swimming with you at Holly's house. It seems like it was yesterday, but it was a long time ago. It's hard to believe that it's been over a year since you were taken from us. Sometimes at night when I'm all alone, and everything is going wrong, I look at your pictures and cry for you. I know you wouldn't want me to do that but I can't help it, I hate the fact that you are gone. I know there is no explanation for your tragedy, but that doesn't comfort me. The reason I guess I'm writing to you Lisa, is things have been pretty bad for me again Lisa, and you know what I mean. I'm running into some problems again, and I really need you to lokk down on me, and keep me strong. I'm alone in the physical world, but I know you're presence is around me in the spiritual one. I need you to look out for me. I miss you more each day, and I just wish that I could go back to the day when I was giving you piggy back rides at practice. I know that is not possible though. Sometimes I see people in the mall or someplace that remind me of you sometimes, and for a split second I almost want to go over and talk to them, and share jokes with them, but I know they're not you. Sometimes when I feel depressed and my life seems meaningless, I think of your sweet face, and I realize what a precious gift my life is. Thank you for this. I know that blessing is from you, and you are keeping me strong through everything. I recieved the booklet from your mother a couple of weeks ago. Kelly gave it to me in school. Looking at your pictures , and remembering you made me cry and laugh at the same time. There are so many memories I have of you, and I want you to know that I will never let them go. I will never forgt you, and I will tell everyone I know what a good, and hilarious friend you were, You could always put a smile on my face. I miss that. I miss you. I hope you are happy wherever you are, and I hope you are filled with our love for you down here on earth. I am going to live each day with you in the back of my mind, and your memory driving me towards all of the things people say I will never do. Even though thing have been rough here , Lisa, I know I will be okay in the end, and I just ask for your love and presence to help me through. I know you watch us everyday, and I hope you will help me straighten things back out with myself again. I miss you very much. Your "favorite" goalie. P.S.--- Lois & Danny , if you read this , thank you so very much for the beautiful booklet you made for me. I will keep it forever, and treasure it.

Hey sweetie, I know its been a VeRy long time since I've written to you on here; but I know you hear me talking to you every night in my prayers. Its hard to believe that two Christmas' have gone by now that we haven't got to spend with you, and I wish I could say that its gotten easier. I still have those day's where all I want to do is sit around thinking of you and cry, but I try to be strong for you. *just doesn't always work that way* I had a bad day not too long ago, I was looking through some old pictures of mine, and I found a prom picture of you and Amel. On the back of it you wrote, "To Andrea, the bestest sister in the world. I love you, Lisa!" And it really hurt me to think of all of the time I had with you that I just took for granted. All the times I was off doing things with other people when I could have had a lot more fun staying home goofing off with you. And I'm sorry for taking so much for granted, but I know you don't hold it against me. Things in life are really confusing right now, I could really use you here to make some off the wall wise crack in an old lady voice to make me laugh..or ride around with me on a sled tied to the fourwheeler and try to break every bone in our bodies like we used to. I smile every time I think of all the fun we had, but I fight back tears at the same time. I'll wrap this up, because I'm good at writing novels every time I get on here. Just know that I carry you with me every where I go in my mind and in my heart, and there isn't a moment in time that I'm not thinking of you and missing you. I love you so much, and miss you more than words will ever be able to express. Until I see that beautiful smile again! *Love Always-Andrea~

Hi, my sweet baby. It's hard to believe another year has come (I was just going to write "without you here to share it with us"...but I stopped myself, because I'm sure you're here in spirit. There are too many things showing me that you are *smile*) I wish I knew how things work in heaven. I don't think you measure time as we measure it, but if you're able to watch over us, then you "see" the seasons come and go. Am I making any sense? I'm getting ready to take my nap before work. But I wanted to get on here and write to you and also to Brian before I did. And surprise! I had an email FROM Brian! It was a neat story that I'm going to copy and paste here, for the benefit of all that still visit your site. Here goes... "Recently I overheard a father and daughter in their last moments together. They had announced her departure and standing near the security gate, they hugged and he said, " I love you. I wish you enough." She said, "Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Daddy." They kissed and she left. He walked over toward the window where I was seated. Standing there I could see he wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on his privacy, but he welcomed me in by asking, "Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?" "Yes, I have," I replied. Saying that brought back memories I had of expressing my love and appreciation for all my Dad had done for me. Recognizing that his days were limited, I took the time to tell him face to face how much he meant to me. So I knew what this man was experiencing. "Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?" I asked. "I am old and she lives much too far away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is, her next trip back would be for my funeral, " he said. "When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, 'I wish you enough.'" May I ask what that means?" He began to smile. "That's a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone." He paused for a moment and looking up as if trying to remember it in detail, he smiled even more. "When we said 'I wish you enough,' we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain them," he continued and then turning toward me he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory... "I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish enough "Hello's" to get you through the final "Good-bye." He then began to sob and walked away"... And so to you, my sweet Lisa "I wish you ENOUGH" and more importantly, (since in heaven I'm sure you have a full bounty of all the finest that creation has to offer) I wish myself, your family, and your friends...ENOUGH to get us by until we see that beautiful smile of yours again. I'm sitting here smiling, remembering your goofiness and silliness. Getting so mad at you for acting that way when you were acting hyper and nothing would stop you... until finally I just had to laugh at you and give up. How I long to see you acting that way again. Thank heavens for video tapes, where I can go back and watch you in that mode, doing your one-man "Sally" talk shows, taping at birthday parties, etc. Its nice to see you in action. Which makes me wonder, are you allowed to act up like that in heaven? Or does God finally have to put His foot down to stop you (hopefully He has better luck than me *L*) We had a good Christmas, but trust me, you weren't forgotten! Seems there were angel gifts all over the place *smile* I just wish I had the luxury of seeing how much you would have blossomed and matured over the past fifteen months. Well, I'd better go. Love you, you silly monkey. XOXO Mom

Death.....has taken many that were so close to us, should we cry? should we have hope? Tears do fall on their own, it's a spontaneous feeling, and oh a sea of tears wont be enough, but does she really want us to cry? or Does she want us to smile with hope and love when we remember her?I believe she wants as even happier than when she was alive. Lisa id for sure in a much better place than all of us at the moment, so let's wish her eternal happiness and i'm sure she's having and ever lasting smile. Merry Christmas Lisa

*~*Lisa*~*..Hey gurlie!! How are you doing?¿? I bet great. It's Christmas Eve and guess what?¿? It really doesn't seem like Christmas. I think that it came to fast or something!!! It needs to like snow just enough to cover the ground..LoL!!! It snowed today and I thought that it was going to lay but it didn't. I miss you but I know that you are watching over me and you are with my in spirit!!! I've been thinking a lot about you lately and the times that we had at Janice's. I remember the time that you came to her house and your mom was bringing you down your money so that you could go Christmas shopping with us. When she got there, we didn't know where you were and then we found you all snuggled up in Janice's bed. You were such a goof..LoL!!! Those were the fun times though!!! I sent your mom an email and a christmas card!!! Please look over everyone this year and send them hugs, kisses and some holiday cheer, especially your family!!!! I liked those christmas pages that your mom made for you. The letter was so nice and that picture of you that your mom and dad drew was great...you're great artists Lois and Danni!!!! Tell my angels up in Heaven that I said "hey and have a merry christmas!!" Well I better go to bed so Santa will come...LoL!!! I will write ya tomorrow!!!! Lush & Miss you!! *~*Merry Christmas*~*....Julie

Lisa-well here I am again, reading what people have wrote about you and talking to you. And it makes me feel really sad. And Holidays are always hard. I was just buying some gift cards for Shelley & Jenny and then I thought to myself, "If Lisa were here I bet I would be buying her I gift." As a matter of fact I pretty much know I would have got you a gift. I e-mailed you mom twice send her a card not only for those speical extra pages but also to Wish her a Merry Christmas. So watch over your mother and give her strength on christmas. And keep us all safe over the Holiday. Today it nearly snowed all day. It was really nice even if it was 25 degrees I loved it, snow make Christmas seem even better then it all ready is. The movie 'A Christmas Story' is going to be on 24 hours on Christmas. yet I could watch it so many times. It is really good. I got one of my grandmothers presents. It was the best present ever from her. It was the tape that I use to watch that had my grannie and her family in it and all it was, was family memories of Christmas, isnowskiing, ice-skating and sled riding. My mom and aunts and uncle are in it. And I use to watch it every other month, it kinda made me smile and laugh. There are no words through the whole home movie. All they play is Christmas Songs it is great. I thanked my Grannie greatly for that. Merry Christmas Lisa. I love you. (Christmas has come to quick) Lush ya much.Jarely-

Dear Lisa, As I sit here at my computer and cry, not even knowing who you were and not ever had saying a word to you, Iam so sad for what had to happen to you on September 20, 2000. I hope you and your friend Eddie got a chance to meet eachother in heaven. It was really sad, a guy I met on the hotornot.com page added me to his aol messneger and we began talking and he said that his friend just found out that one of his friends died a year ago. Then he sent me your link and Eddie's too. and i just burst into tears. But Iam glad that your mther decided to finish the page that you began for Eddie that you didn't get to finish beacuse someone took your life away from you too soon. I lost a friend last wed. 12-19-01 to cancer. Perhaps you guys will meet in Heaven too. She was a great person, such as you were, from the things I have read about you. I've not even got a chance to meet you. But i know you're in heaven and i'll see you when i get there. But until then, I love you babe. R.I.P. My prayers are with you and your family. Love Always Kestle

Wow. Lisa. I don't know where to start. I finally replied to the letter you sent me back in Janurary of 1999. Im so so sorry I didn't mail you sooner. I really have no excuse except my selfish lack of motivation to pick up a pen and paper. I cant believe youre gone. I sent you a letter on Dec. 19, expecting to get a joyful reply, something I always could expect from you. Instead I get news of your untimely death. I wanted to hear your oppinion on the Sept. 11 attacks, if you were driving yet, or what your new favorite song is (please dont EVER forget 'The Boy is Mine' by Brandy; that song will always hold a special place in my heart.) But now I will never know these things. I cant believe someone so beautiful could be taken away like this. Remember all those nights we spent on MPlayer? Remember putting each other's pictures on our walls and taking pictures of our rooms to prove that we had done it? I still have those pictures. Remember talking on the phone? Remember that night your sister burned the hot dog and you scanned a picture of it and sent it to me? Well I don't know if you remember these things, but I definately do. I am writing a letter to your mom as we speak, taking tear breaks as necessary...I am also holding in my hand the letter you wrote to me in Janurary of 1999. Im sorry I never got a chance to meet you on ICQ those days you asked me to, and no matter what you say, your handwriting is still better than mine!! "...but I have one thing to ask and I SWEAR, it would mean everything to me! WRITE ME BACK, JOSEPHINE!!! PLEASE" Well, here I write, as you asked. I'm also sorry we never got to meet in person. I am sure I will meet you in heaven when my time comes. As for now, farewell Lisa Michelle...Rest in Peace and untill we meet again...... "I’ll go with you, to countries I never saw and shared with you, now, yes, I shall experience them. I’ll go with you on ships across seas which, I know, no, no, exist no longer; with you I shall experience them." Con te partiro, Lisa. Goodbye.

My darling baby, Hello! I've been thinking of you all night and just wanted to write. I'm being a big cry baby today *smile* sorry, I know you would hate that. Last night going to work, something came on the radio to remind me of Dan (he's not getting you into trouble up there is he? *wink* Tell him I said to behave!) It made me miss him and feel bad for Nancy, Joel and Jessie. Then I remembered he promised, if he got to heaven before me, that he'd give you a big hug from your mom, and take care of you for me. By the time I got to work, I was having a good cry. I told myself to get my mind on something else, and get to work, and I'd be okay. So I checked our mail... and found a letter for YOU, from an internet friend of yours, Joey. He was wondering about you, since he hadn't heard from you in ages. Needless to say, I was in tears again. I sat down when I got home, and wrote him an email. I hope he takes it okay. I hate breaking that news to people, especialy in a letter. Send him a hug down, sweetie, for when he reads it. He said in the letter that he bought you a small gift in Mexico. I told him if he still wants you to have it, to mail it to me and I'll put it on your grave or on a shelf in your room... After I wrote him I came here to "talk" to you. I checked Dan's condolence page, then Brittany's (she's an aunt now, did you know?), and the boys from Ridgely. I had to quit, all I was doing was make myself cry. Christmas is almost here. Would you believe we still don't have a tree up? Burke and Tibbsy stopped last weekend. Erica and Andrea said "Do you like all our Christmas decorations?" and pointed to the Christmas cards hanging on the door (that's it *L* Maybe this weekend we'll do a tree) Burke just finished basic training and was in his navy uniform. Tibbsy had on his naval academy uniform. They looked so nice (I felt bad, Sugar climbed all over them and got hair all over their uniforms) Burke left the 19th for an "undisclosed location" Protect him if you can, okay? Alyvea is a little monkey. I'm hoping she'll spend the night with us this weekend, but she's going through a clingy stage, not wanting to leave mommy. She says she wants drums for Christmas. I asked what she's going to do with drums. She said "Bang on them loud!" *L* Poor Deanna... Well baby, I better go. You all have a wonderful Christmas. We will be, as always, loving and missing you.... Love you, forever and a day. XOXOX Mom

Lisa, Hey! You're mom just dropped off more of pages of that booklet. I like getting it. It keeps me updated with you and with the community along with your family. That picture your mom drew of you up in heaven is awesome. I love it. Lois, You are one good Artist. I can see that being the way you look up in Heaven, Lisa. I was thinking about you today. About how you were always nice to everyone and wouldn't go behind people's backs and talk about them. I could trust you with anything. I wish that God could have let you stay on Earth longer than your short lived life. I don't know where my life is headed. I have no clue what i want to do with my life after high school. I thought about being in the medical field, being a lawyer, or actor. I really don't know. I wish you could help me out. I chose my schedule for next year. In one of the pages that came with your mom's booklet it mentions that "No one can guarantee our last breath". Now that got to me. I mean I hate the fact that someone else or even myself could die at this very moment. I don't know how your family and close friends can get through the loss of someone as great as you without the help from God and his angels. I love you. I cannot wait to see you again. I will wait to see you as patiently and sometimes impatiently as possible. I sincerely miss you. God Bless America. and Lisa watch over us all down here in the next few years. Please help our school. Hopefully it doesn't have to be consolidated. Also, help our school in the fact that too many people talk about everyone. I feel that I am always being laugh or gawked at all the time. I think it is awesome when someone wears something "way out of style". I would love to have that feeling inside me. I would also love to be that Person! Watch over me and the rest of the drama club as we do our play tomorrow. I love you!! LUSH YA'

Lisa, Hey there..today has been one of those *oh my gosh, I need Lisa* kinda days. I'm sure everybody has them..theres just something racing in my head and I'd give the world to hear your advice about it. Everybody knows you could make anything better again..I just hope I can make the right choices..I can get my 180 tomorrow! We all know I'm going to fail :p but it's a nice thought anyway. I finally told your dad about us "misplacing" the bungee cord on the back of the four-wheeler the day we went hunting with him. He understood though..I even think I saw him laugh about it ;)Silly girl, we had some really good times together, I'll always cherrish them!! I can't wait until the day I can see you again, actually when all our friends can reunite and be the way we used to be..I wish that day could come sooner, but I guess there is assurance in knowing that every day we suffer through brings us one day closer to you! Lush Ya Girly!

Li§a, Well Christmas is shortly arriving and its always a exciting time for me. I like seeing people that I usually never get to see all the time. I also like giving people presents and this year I actually agve good presents. ^.~ I sent your mom of Christmas card today. Hope she gets it soon ^!^ School is going o.k Iguess.

Sometimes it just hits me really hard how much I miss you. I can also see it in some people some days they miss you too :'^( Well I am almost ready for bed. I miss ya in Lush ya. Love ya!

Hey baby! How are you sweetie? Well, I said I was going to tell Brian he could remove your link the beginning of December. But he emailed me back and said that your link isn't an inconvenience to him in any way, and he would leave it if I wanted. He said your link is visited often, so I must not be the only one that comes here all the time (?) So I told him to go ahead and leave you on here, at least until next year (get me through the holidays) *Thanks Brian* I mailed Brian a present last week. I didn't want to spoil the surprise because I know he reads your new responses, but he should have recieved it by now. There was an email going around that had a picture of a firefighter with a female angel hugging him. Since Brian is a professional firefighter and his daughter is in heaven with you, it just reminded me of him and Heather. So I enlarged it a little and put it in a real nice frame. Looks really good... I think he and Nancy will like it. As for us, we are doing okay. The holidays are slightly easier this year, at least I can shop without crying. But everywhere I go I see things that you would love, so I just have to will myself to keep going. We love you baby, and miss you so much. Talk to you later. XOXOXO Mom

Things in the past couple months have become A LOT better, and I think it's because I finally whined enough to you, and you helped me out! *hehe* Nah, I am just joking, but I seriously think you had something to do with it sweetie! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I mean, this Christmas will be easier to deal with because I have someone to help me through it! So so..how are you kids doing up there? I'm sure with all the holiday activity going on your pretty busy, huh? Oh oh...LOIS, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the folder and the CD..it means more to me than you will EVER know!

Hi Leese, It's hard to write to you, knowing you won't be writing me back. I love you, I miss you, Oh how I miss you! But as you said, we must go on. Sometimes I don't want to, but there is no choice. I know where you are. I wish I was there with you, but that wouldn't make the rest of the family happy. Well, at least I don't think so. I'm having a pretty rough time though. I remember the Friday night football game, the very last words I heard you say to me were "I love you dad". I still hear them over and over and I know you do, and so do many other people. You are an example of love. Thank you sweetheart, for loving me. Someday we'll meet again. I still cry everyday a little, sometimes a lot. But when it stops I hear you say "I love you daddy". Just remember that Friday night and the last words you heard your daddy say were "I love you too Lisa". And I always will. Just help me to make it, sweetie... Love forever, Dad

Dear Lisa, I do not know you, we have never met. I came accross this web page while searching for a condolence message. I am struck by the love that so many people have shown for you. You must be a very special angel watching over your family and friends. I don't know why but I have a need to write to you. You died not long before my son was born. They say that we all have a guardian angel watching over us. May I ask you to be my son's guardian angel. I won't mention his name cause I'm sure you already know it. It may seem selfish of me to ask you this when you already are watching over so many people but I can't help myself. From all the messages that I have read, I know you were an extremly kind person. A rare precious jewel. And therefore, I would be honoured if you would watch over my son. I hope that things get easier for your family and friends that so desperatly miss you. I'll say a prayer for all of them. God Bless

Well it's been a while since I wrote, and since I won't be able to write anymore I though I better write a little something. It's been over a year, and I still and never will forget about you Lisa! I mean how could I possibly forget such a wonderful and special person to me! I just want you to know I love you girl, and think about you everyday! I will always remember you as the greatest friend I could ever have, and I know I will someday see your gorgeous smiling face again. Make sure you look out for me, I'm trying not to do to many stupid things, cause I know your watching over me laughing! ;) Just remember even though you can't talk back I still talk to you so make sure you listen!! I "Lush" you sweety!!! Kisses Kisses!!!!

Lisa, Well im not really sure why it has taken me so long to finally sit down and write to you on here,but believe me it is definetly not because i haven't thought of you.I think the biggest reason is because i don't really think of you as gone.You were and still are always there for me.whenever i have any kind of problem i always know there is one person i can count on.it is still so hard for me to say exactly what you mean to me.You r all that is on my mind like sprinkles on ice cream,you know how even after they r gone u can still see the colored spot where they were and as long as the icecream is their so is that colored spot.thats kinda how i feel.You r a part of me that will be around as long as i am,and i might add,you r not only a part of me,but the better part. I love u with all my soul, Donnie

Sorry I never worte you before just didn't know what to say. I still regret not being at the funeral but the Army had its own plans. When I heard what had happened I was awe struck. How could something like that happen to such a wonderful person? You were (and still are ) the most entergentic person I have ever met. You made everyone laugh and was always cheering someone up. You took it upon urself to learn sign language just so you could talk to my lil sister, you always gave ur best and never thought twice about helping anyone who needed it. You always seemed to liven things up. Whether it was at softball games when we were losing very badly or at school during a boring assembly u were always cheerful about everything. I know that you are in a better place now watching over all your friends and having a blast with Eddie and Brittany. To Lois,Danny, Erica, and Andrea: I am deeply sorry for ur lose. I know that Lisa is in Heaven with God and that one day when the Lord says its time you will be re-united. Just keep ur faith and remember all the good times you had with Lisa. Through all the bad times that u may have just remember that she is watching over you and will always be with you in ur heart. When ur feeling bad just remeber that U an do all things through Christ who will give you the strength to carry on. I have learned that God has a plan for everybody. His plan for Lisa was to be ur angel to guide and watch over you until it is ur time to be with Him. Y'all are in my thougths and prayers everyday.

Lisa, Hey I wanted to write to you before they took this link out. I am really gonna miss writing on here but I know of other ways that I could. You will always be remembered in my heart as well as many others as an awesome, sweet, beautiful, and sporty girl. You were more than just a friend to all of us...you were...? You ! I don't know how to explain it and I know that everyone else must feel the same way too. I know I do. Well duh..or I wouldn't have wrote it. I know that I have a video tape of me, you, and the rest of the Bloomington church kids in bible school and in the Christmas Plays. We are doing Babes in Toyland for our Christmas play this year for Drama and Lois when you read this I would like you to come see me and everyone else in Drama. It would mean a lot. You can just e-mail me. The dates are 14, 15, 16 of December. Well n e way.. back to you. It doesn't even seem like a year. You were someone that everyone said you could talk too and now that u r gone everyone is being so mean. There are other words but I don't want to use them. I can't stand more than 3/4 of the Westmar High School Population. I love you Lisa and I will never forget you. You will be remembered by me forever and I know that I will see you again...but until then ... Goodnight and I love you more than you'll ever know and everything reminds me of you.

Lisa, I am so sorry I never wrote to you. I guess I didn't want to accept the fact that you are really gone (but definitely not forgotten). I hope you know I think about you often, and that I love you very much. I, as well as everyone else, miss you dearly (esp. your crazy ideas that you always acted on). I still set back sometimes and laugh about some of the crazy things you have done. For example, making commercials and talk shows with the video camara, and the crazy man that tried to break into the house, the weird drunk man at Exxon that we almost ran over...I could go on forever...Anyway, i just wanted to let you know I was thinkin' about you and that....we all miss you and wish you were here.

You will always hold a special place in my heart forever!!! I will always cherish all those times that we shared up at Janice's. You were such a fun person to be around. I know that you will be watching over me so I will try to be good...*L*!!! If not you can kick me..LoL!!! Help me become the best that I can in life!!! I have set high goals and I dunno if I will be able to achieve them but I am going to try to!!! Tell Britt, Eddie and Jeff that I said "Hey and I miss them too"!!! I was reading over that Lisa memories book for the millionth time and I was reading the paragraph that you wrote entitled "If you had one more day to live", you said that you would see how many friends that you had. I think that you had a lot of friends. I don't think that I knew one person who didn't like you!!! Everyone liked you!! On to another quality you had...You were very caring. You made sure that no one was left out!!! You always wanted to help out if something went wrong or if an accident occured. I adored you for that!!!!!

Hi sweet baby! Just thought I'd write to say hello. I miss you so much, you silly little goof. Yesterday was a bad "Lisa" day for some reason. The first I'd really cried since God showed me a pic of you in my head on September 20, and I could see how happy you are *smile* I even sat down with paper and pencil and drew the vision so I wouldn't "lose" it. I'm not the world's best artist but it does look a lot like you... I emailed your friends and told them I was going to tell Brian it's okay to remove your link from here in Decemeber. He's already kept in on far longer than most, as a favor to me. Isn't he nice?... Anyway, I told your friends if they want to write to or about you on this page, to do it by the end of the month. Then I'll print this whole page off to save... it's going to take a ton of paper *L* You have some really special friends baby! I hope they know how special they are, and how much I love them all! They are all so good to me. Dad and I went to the Homecoming game last Friday, and they all made a point to talk to us, hug us, and make us feel good. They feel like they were blessed to know you, but you were (and we are) equally blessed to know them... Well baby, I better go. Love and miss you sweetie! XOXOXO Mom

***Lisa*** Hey chicadee!!! How are you doing?¿? I am like very tired now but I wanted to stop in and write something to ya!! We got back from our conference yesterday (Nov. 8th) and it was a blast!! I got my Hosa Leadership award and I was very excited!! At first I didn't think that I was gonna pass the exam but in the end it turned out that I did!!! I want to thank you for watching over us!!! A lot of stuff happened there ( new friendships,learning stuff,and having fun) and I think that it brought our chapter closer together!!! We also met alot of people...some were nice and others were kinda rude ( I guess that would be a nice way to put it..*L*) I felt so bad for this one chapter because this girl did something embarrassing when she went to get the participating awards and it made her advisor cry!!!! With all this happening and bringing us closer, it made me think about the day you died and the days after you died. It brought everyone closer together like we are now!!!! I really miss ya!!! You were such a great person to know and to be around!!! Well I guess that I better go because I have to get some rest!!!! Nightie-Night!!! Lush and Miss ya!!! Jewelz

Hey Lisa~ How have you been? I am not doing so well. Soccer is going well and all. We only have one more game left. And we get to ride a charter bus to get there cause its takes two hours. Its at Smithburg. Tenth grade is alot more hard than ninth. Mrs. Dye's work is really confusing. I really like ninth grade better last year. I sent your mom a nice little poem in her e-mail that I found while flipping through a 1995 year book, in memory of Mindi Vamplet. She must have been similar to you becuase some things in that poemreminded me of you. Its called 'Silent Tears' I hope you are doing well up there, but of course you always are watching over all of us. I miss you so much. And for some reason I really want to talk to you right now, about school, sports and other stuff. People are still keeping your spirit alive and thats good. I know I will never forget you, I mean how could someone forget you. ^lol^ Well I g2g I am typing this in school, I got out of my Newspaper class cause we weren't doing anything. I lush you. Love Jared~

Hey Lisa. I knwo I haven't written in a long time, and I'm sorry, I guess I haven't talked to many people really for awhile, so don't feel bad. I guess you knwo what I'm feeling, no one else seems to. I just have this awfel feeling all the time. Like I just wanna throw up. I guess you know about the whole Matthew situation. Oh yeah, please keep an eye on my poor mother Laber, she's having a hard time and I'm worried bout her. I'm not sure what to do to make things easier on her, short of strangling her son. Oh he makes me so upset Lisa. How can one eorson have so much control over my feelings? It just doesn't seem possible. I mean I know I should give a flying crap bout hwta he does, but ti just kills me to even think about it. I get hives, when the thought crosses my mind even. Lorie says I shouldn't worry bout it, and he's nto worth it. But I still love him, and that's the honest truth. I feel like there's such an emptiness inside of me. Everyday I feel like I little part of me dies inside all over again. Maybe it's wrong, maybe it's me, I relaly don't know. I don't have the answers to anything right now. All I want to do is just go live in a hole, and I knwo that's wrong too. But why does it have to hurt so bad Lisa? I know the saying, what goes around comes around, so did I do something really really horrible in my life to deserve this pain? I feel like I must have. Fate certinally hasn't been on my side either. I can't see a reason why I need to hurt this bad all the time. I saw them today, well I guess you know that. When I was going to school I had the same awfel feeling like something was going to go wrong, and there they were. He looked right at me Lisa, and didn't show one ounce of emoion. He didn't even speak. Why? Why Lisa? Why does it have to be this way? I cry so much I dont' think I can ever cry again, but then the tears keep coming right back. I hate myself so much for letting this get to me the way it does. I should be stronger. I should be able to just forget about him. Why do I have to love him so damn much? It isn't fair, how can I have this much feeling for him, and him not care if I feel off the face of the earth? I don't knwo what I'd do without Lorie, but I feel bad out dumping all my problems on her because she's so stressed out right now too. I'm so worried bout her, she doesn't even look goood anymore. Just try to keep a watch on her, she needs it. I told him once that if he ever hurt her, then I'd not stand for it, he could do whatever he wanted just as long as she wasn't paying for his actions. And now she is. I wonder if it's even worth it to care anymore. Everytime I do I just get hurt, everyone I car baout seems to just leave me. I mean why care when you just get screwed over int he end anyway. Oh Lisa, why can't you be here. I need you so bad. Homecoming is in a few weeks and it makes me want to barf, the whole thought of it! Anyway, here we go again, I cry, I get hives, then I feel like throwing up. Oh well what can ya do boutit. But I ned to go do my calc. I'll write more later Lisa. Nite. Love, Kristina

Hey Lisa, I just wanted to stop in before school starts and say hi. ANd I hope you are watching over us. SO much is going on in the world and sometimes it does get scarey. But no one can live in fear. Someone once told me do not be afaid of death, for you are returning to your home, Heaven. Therefore all fear has pretty much left me. Only two more games of soccer and it is over. I really liked soccer this year. Well I g2g to school. Lush you Jared.

Well Lisa here I'm writting to you again....told ya i would keep in touch this time;) Ever since your mom gave me that stuff about ya, i can't stop thinking about you and Ed Man... I really miss ya's alot.. I can't believe you and Eddie have been gone for over a year now... it already seems like a 10 or possibly 20 years, cause i stop and think everyday like how can i go on with out this friends.. but other times it just seems like yesterday, that we were walking down the hall in school talking about what everyone was gone to do that evening, or the weekend to come..but anyway lease i like the dream you had about Eddie getting off the bus, and everyone knew that he wasn't coming back when he got off....and he said i have to do this guys... that was a really good dream i pray for those kind of dreams all the time...but i guess he wanted you to see, cause he knew you was gone to be with him soon...well i'll talk to ya real soon again...

It was sad, and then I think of some of the funny things you said to me. Like at Lunch one time, you told me you had hair exstentions. And I was like no way. Where do they clip and you were like, I glued them in duh....That was so funny. I never believe you. and you were like Jared have you ever heard of the word Joke, its in the dictionary with your picture beside it.

To Our Angel, LISA WADE It seems like an eternity since we last saw your glowing face, but in reality it's only been a year. We remember you today, as we do each and every day, with a mixture of smiles, laughter and tears. We will always treasure the memories of the fifteen years that we were blessed to have you in our lives. Until we see your beautiful smile again, we will be loving and missing you. Love you, forever and a day, Mom and Dad, Deanna, Erica and Andrea ... Hi baby, I think of you today (as I always do) When I went to bed last night, I was oddly at peace, thinking of your new life in heaven and how happy you are. I was able to fall asleep smiling at your happiness. Maybe that was a sign from you? I don't know. But I think of the thousands and thousands of people who lost a loved one on Sept 11, and are just starting the grieving process that we all started a year ago today. And I feel their pain, knowing what they will be going through. If there's anyway you can, help them through it. I know you've probably been busy welcoming all their loved ones to heaven. I'm sure by now you are president of Heaven's Welcome Wagon *L* As I think of all the lives you impacted on earth, I just remembered I wanted to mention...Dad was talking to the Walmart greeter last week, I can't remember her name. She told him she lost a good friend when you died. She always looked forward to your trips to Walmart because you always stopped to visit with her (Thw Walmart greeter's greeter? *L*)...So many of your friends, over and over the past year, have told me how much they admire my strength. But for the record, most days I feel anything but strong. You know I do my fair share of crying! The strength they see in me is the strength of God showing through. It is only by faith that I am able to get through this. Your life and death touched so many people that I can only trust that there was a purpose to all this pain. For some reason unknown to us, God blessed us with your presence for fifteen years, then it was your time to return to Him. One thing that all the deaths at Westmar, and the recent deaths from the Sept 11 attack on the US has impresses on me, is how quickly a life can come to an end. You never know when it will be your last time to say goodbye to someone you love, and I've learned not to take "I Love You's" for granted. Heaven is much more real to me now, and I want to live in such a way that I get there when my time on earth is ended. I want to wrap my arms around my little monkey and give you the biggest hug ever... Yes, a year later, I will still cry and I will still be sad sometimes, but I am determined not to be so consumed with grief and bitter over what I have lost, that I can't appreciate the blessings that I still have. You would not want that from any of us. So, for us, life goes on... and as for you, Eddie, Britt and Jeff *smile* I'm sure you're having the times of your lives! Fly high, angels, until we see you again! Love you guys! Love, Mom

Leese- I can't believe it. Tomorrow will be one whole year you've been gone, and my pain hasn't lessoned at all and neither has anyone elses. It doesn't feel right without you, we have a game tomorrow, Beall, our rivals, and I doubt I'll be able to think straight to even play. I doubt alot of us will be in any shape to play. I remember Spetember 20th like it was yesterday. Going to the firehall at 10, Dub running to me, crying so hard I couldn't catch my breath. Then the viewing and funeral's, I'm not like some, I want the image out of my head, I want my memories of you alive and with us, all of your friends. Not of you in the casket. When I think of it, I throw a fit of rage and tears. I won't be able to hold it together tomorrow. I remember not letting go of your hand at the funeral, and placing one of my bracelets around your wrist for you. I remember when I touched you not believing how cold you were and not wanting to ever let you go. It was the most horrible expierance of my life. And to think tomorrow it's been a year, that's unreal. In a way it is going to be like living it all over again. Help us all through it, its going to be a rough day. How did we even get through it this long? I have to go, but Ill be talking to you as always in my heart. I love you bunches, and miss you more than ever, be with us Leese. Your one and only, Jordie

I can't believe you've been gone a year..I still remember everything that went on and every feeling that flowed through me..I just don't know what to do tomorrow. I know you'd hate us to be sad..but it's going to be really hard not to be..We have a game tomorrow (finally decided to play)..please watch down on us! We all really want to win for you!

*~*Hey Lisa*~* Tomorrow is going to be one year since you were here with us. I can't believe that you are gone because it seems so unreal. You were such a good friend and I will always remember all the times that we shared up at Janice's. You were not like any of my other friends you had that one special quality that made everyone like you. I dunno if it was the warm smile of yours or the way that you cared about everyone and made sure that no one was left out!!! I wrote ya a poem last night. Here it is: Gone But Not Forever Today on Earth makes one year since you were here On September 20, 2000 we shed many tears We know that you are in Heaven which is a better place to be Your life was short, you did God's chore and the Gates were given to you with that one special key You opened the Gates and went on your way For it was the start of a brand new day As you went on your way you saw Eddie and Jeff playing some ball You yelled "Hey guys" and you called them near We now have a team of three wonderful players You thought of us down here on Earth with a lot of cares!!!! We know that this spectacular girl is near But we only have memories of her, to us she was very dear Today we send all of our love and prayers to her family and above We know that she is flying free like a white dove She earned her angel wings When we heard the Heavenly Bell ring She now watches over us each and every day To guide us from going down the wrong way Thanks for being there and keeping us on track You are our Guardian Angel who has our backs that is gone but not forever!!! In Memory of Lisa Wade Send some love down to us and especially your family. I know that they are going through a lot and this is going to be a hard time for them!! Also send some love down to the people who lost loved ones in this terrorist attack!! I bet that you have already told God to do that and you have already made friends with all those people!! Well chicadee I really miss ya and I can't wait til that one special day when I can meet ya again!!! *~*Love and Miss ya more and more each day*~* Jewelz

Lisa~ Tomorrow is YOUR day....that "anniversary" you could call it I suppose! I'm not sure if we should celebrate, because you've been in the Heavenly Kingdom for a year, or just cry because I still miss you like crazy! So many things have been going on lately, it's surreal! As you know, the whole deal with the US and war is so nuts! I'm sure you greeted all those people at the gates, didn't you silly girl?? Hey...I asked GOD last night to send some more love down here, and especially to those of the lost loved ones, friends, rescue workers, and the flight passengers, and crew! Do you think you could help him out, or WAIT...nevermind, I should know better..you've already been spreading the love around, haven't you?? GIRL..I'm not being selfish when I ask you of this, but umm..would it be possible to somehow change my state of heart, or I dunno..maybe send me an angelic kick in the head for what I did last night! I honestly didn't know what else to do..I saved myself pain, and ended up hurting someone I REALLY cared for in the process! Well..now that I think about it..I don't want a kick in the head..maybe just a nice swift smack..*lol* A kick, with your powerful soccer legs, just might hurt a bit too much! I don't know how everyone else is feeling about tomorrow...but in a way I am kind of afraid! I don't know of what, or why? But I just am...Maybe because I'm afraid I'll get my hopes up to like see you..*denial*:(...I know that won't happen, but I mean..couldn't hurt, right? Maybe you could visit us all in our dreams tonight, and assure us everything will be ok? Just a thought my dear Lisa! Ya know, last night I wrote so much, it was unreal! I wrote you a letter, so I might bring it up to your grave tomorrow when I bring up my flowers and come to visit you! Will that be good? *hehe* I sure hope so! Lisa, my dear sweet angel friend...take care of your mom and the rest of your family..by the sounds of it..they all need it!! Lois and family..your in my thoughts..I lush you guys! Lisa..I best be going now, but like I've always told myself..I'll see you one day...in da future, and give you those "lizzard kisses" that I OWE you! *hehe* Thanks so much for all your support in da past year...I miss you like crazy...Until we meet..I lush you!! *~Carebear~*

Dearest Lisa, Hi, it's me, Andy, from Malaysia. Do you still remember me? So, how are you doing there? I hope you're doing well and enjoying there. Well, I'm sorry that I didn't often come here and talk to you, I've been busying with my college works all year long. You know, I'm taking a one-year course, so this course is going kinda fast. Anyway, I'm always thinking of you whenever I open my mailbox as I am still keeping the first email that you've sent to me, but something just when wrong two days ago, I don't know why, when I opened up my mailbox, there left nothing at all in my mailbox. I feel quite upset, all the sweet memories are deleted without warning to me. =( Don't worry, no worries, emails had gone, but everything is still inside my head, in my mind, now and forever, i will never forget all those "sweets'". Let me tell you what have I been doing last two weeks. I did tell you that I am an aggressive inline skater, right? And guess what? I took part in a BEST TRICK COMPETITION last two weeks, and I've won 3rd place. I felt so happy satisfied enough to have the 3rd, because it was the first time I involved myself in the x-treme sport competition. Next week, after my trial exam is over, there is another competition, this coming competition is gonna be huge, it is the Asian X-Games Qualifiers, I think I'm gonna join also for this competition. OK, I think that's all for now. Talk to you next time. Hey !!! Why don't we meet in our dream tonight, sounds nice? Hehe.......

Hi my sweet angel! It's the end of a long emotionally exhausting week, and I wanted to write and say I was thinking of you before I go to bed. I've spent the week in an emotional turmoil, beebopping between obsessing over your "anniversary" this coming Thursday, and the current heartache going on here. As I sit and watch the devasatation and cry with the family members shown on tv searching for their loved ones and hoping against hope for good news, I can't help but feel guilty. Guilty that I'm selfishly, in the back of my mind, reliving last Sept 20 and my own personal heartache. Watching helplessly as they tried to save you, my beautiful vibrant baby reduced to a limp rag of a doll lying on the ground. I rode with you to the hospital. I asked if I could ride in the back with you, but they said that the space was limited. I wish I had begged, just to have had those few extra minutes alone with you. Then, at the hospital, they let us come in the room to see you... Oh God, baby, that's the nightmare that I have been reliving over and over all week, I guess because of your "day" coming up. It's really weird. I can walk myself clear around your body and see you so vividly, but at the same time, so objectively like it's not real... the breathing aparatus and neck brace taking up half of your face. What I could see though, was your eyelids kind of swollen, the dried blood flaking off your face, your hair all piled up on top of your head, in wet little ringlets. Your legs extend below your blanket, still wearing your shin guards and green soccer socks...strong muscular legs. And I can see all that without shedding a tear. But as soon as I see your limp hand dangling from the side of the gurney, and remember squeezing it and it being so cold and lifeless, I'm reduced to tears (as I am now) I wish I had asked to spend the night there until they sent you to Baltimore in the morning. I wanted that quiet time with you. But they probably wouldn't have let me. And I was more needed at home anyway. You weren't there, just your body. You were already celebrating your reunion with Eddie and Aunt Dot. And Erica and Andrea were needing their mom. There are lots of things I wish. Dad took out his pen kife at the hospital and started to cut a lock of your hair to save. But it was right in the front and I said "No not the front!" *L* Good old mom, making sure you looked your best at the funeral home. They suggested that he wait and cut a lock later after you had been cleaned up. But we forgot, in our grief, and never did get that lock of hair. And I miss that. It would be nice to look at, to smell, to feel... I also wish that I had taken a picture of your at the funeral home. Okay, yeah, kind of morbid I know, but you looked so pretty. Now I only have the pic in my head to remember... the blue sweater and white top, holding three yellow roses, one from each of your three sisters (who talk of you often and miss you dearly). You wore a gold bracelet from me and dad that said "I Love You", Deanna's baby ring that dad gave her when she was a baby and she could still wear on her pinky finger, a best friend necklace from Dub, a bracelet from Donnie, etc etc etc. You were (are) so loved. I better close. But first a poem...SHE LIVES FOREVER When you look around and she's not there, Look again...she's everywhere. She's the space of every mountain high, She's the drifting clouds of each new sky. She's the brightness of the summer sun, She's the calmness of a long day done. She's the petal of every flower, She's the wave in every sea. She's the beauty in the leaves Of every kind of tree. Ask anyone who knew her, They'll say she didn't part. She lives forever on In the deepest of our hearts... Love you baby, XOXO Mom

*~*Lisa*~* Hey gurl!! How ya doing up in Heaven?¿? I bet ok!! I know that we are not having peace or anything down here. Yesterday the World Trade Center fell and the Pentagon was crasged into all by hijacked planes. I feel so bad for all the poor deceased people and their families and all of the rescue workers. Please make those people feel welcomed up in Heaven. I know that you probably have. You have that warm smile that no one will pass up and you were so friendly!!! I can't believe in 8 days that it will be a year since tou have died. It just seems like you are still here and you should be coming to Janice's!! I miss ya so much and I always will until the one day that I will be able to see ya again!! Tyler and me might go up and see your family but we have no idea when. I hope that they have a memorial service for ya like they did for Eddie. I like Tyler's idea of making beanie babies in memory of ya!! That would be so kewl...Don't ya think?¿?

Lisa, It's been forever..my freshman school year was just 1 heartbreak after another. So much is going on in the world today. It is awful. You have a lot of new friends up there. (i know you had to of introduced yourself to all of the people) I miss you so much. It'll be a year in 8 days. 8 days..wow..if it were last year this time you would still be here and i would be able to talk to you. We have a foreign exchange student at our school. I don't know him yet but all i know is that his name is Dan. I always hear people talk about you and it just hurts me soo much to actuall realize that your gone but that i will see you again. You are my inspiration You make me not want to ever sin b/cuz i never want to pass up the oppuurtunity of seeing you. Oh what a day that'll be. Awesome. I am soo anxious. You better not forget me b/cuz i know i won't (WINK) I am trying to talk to a guy who makes beanie babies and i was gonna have him make them in memory of the 4 of u guys. Don't tell me you wouldn't like that. Huh? I don't know what i am gonna do on ur 1 year mark. I hope they have a candlelight ceremony like they did for eddie. That'll be nice. Oh lisa i miss you so much. I wish that i could've got to know you more. I love you and i will never forget you. Oh and me and Julie might come visit your mom and everybody but i just don't know when. I guess i will just e-mail ur mom and find out when . Well LUSH YA and please watch over us all down here :) I will keep in touch with ya...

My dearest Lisa~ In a few days it will be year since you left. I miss you so much. I know we never got to see each other but you were always in my thoughts and you still are. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I've wanted to write to you for awhile now. I just don't seem to have the "guts" to. It's so hard writing to one of your friends and knowing that she can't respond with words. I know you can see this and know I am thinking of you so it helps. I drove past your house about a week ago. It was the first time since...that day. I couldn't help but to smile through my tears though remembering all our four-wheeler rides and tree house talks. Remember that night we stayed in the tree house with Ann and we were all freaked out about bugs and stuff? The time I spent with you I will always treasure. The talks we had, the questions you asked me. So much has been happening with me lately and there is one less friend to tell. I know you can see it but I liked to see your reactions and hear what you had to say about stuff. You are such a great girl. It is such a loss without you. I haven't talked to your mom or anyone lately. (hi lois!) I saw Ann awhile ago at the mall, she looked good. Lisa, I miss you. What else can I say? I just know that the day you left was one of the worst days I have ever had. I wish I could email you telling you that you better write me or else. I had so much I wanted to say but it is so hard to type with tears streaming down my face. I know I shouldn't be crying because you wouldn't want that. I came home one night after work and as soon as I saw Mom I started crying. I saw someone at the mall(where I work) that looked like you and it just freaked me out. It was so hard. I know one day I will see you again and until then I miss ya and love ya Lis. You were a great friend and I am glad we had all the great times we had. That is something I will always hold on to. Love ya! ~Jess

Hi Lisa-I've been meaning to sign this thing for the longest time. I didn't really know you, never talked to you, and you never knew me. But,your death hurt alot of people. Like I said before..I didn't know you at all..yet I cried the night I found out you had passed away. It's insane that God is taking so many people from Westmar-ecspecially your class-but it just goes to show that God only lends us angels. Again,I really didn't know you..but apparently you were a very special person..and I'm sad I never got to meet you. But I know one day we'll meet..and then I'll get my chance to tell you how much of a special person you are..you're in my prayers...and my thoughts. Love always!

Lisa, Hey girl! Sorry I haven't written lately. I really haven't had time to pee. Collage started. I met a guy down there, he's really nice looking, and listen to this! His major is massage therepy. How great it that. Then there's Art. I guess ya know what happened with that one. So much for nice guys huh! Oh well, if that's all he wanted then he wasn't worth it anyway. I talked to Matthew the other day. He wasn't exactly my Matthew again, but at least he was civil. I guess that's an improvment. What is going onwith me Lisa. I had a dream last night about me and Matthew and he finnally kissed me. I keep having the same dream, but I always wake up right before we kiss, but last night we finnally did. It makes me so mad Lisa, that I still think about him, but the truth is, and you know it, I still haven't stopped loving him for a second. Lorie told me, well i guess it was Labor Day that she thought it was over for good too, and I guess I knew it along time ago. It's just accepting it, and forgetting about it.Why can't you just drop the man of my dreams at my feet! Huh, ya really need to do that for me. But anyway, I'm exhausted, I just got home from work, so I'm going to bed, Nite Lisa. Lush you, Kristina

I really miss ya but whenever I feel sad I think of all the fun times that we had!! I know that we had some fun times at Janice's and I think that you will agree to that one!!! I remember last year when you came to Janice's and me and her took ya to the mall to go school shopping. Your mom was bringin your money to ya and when she got there she asked where you were and we had the slightest idea but we found ya all snuggled up in Janice's bed....*L*!!!!

Lisa, Well I don't know what to say. Everything is going wrong. Lorie and everyone is back. They had a horrible time, if elt bad for them. Well they all had a horribel time expect for matthew that is. And of course after being voted King of the Ship or something liek that he was rather happy. His name on MSN says he had an amazing time. I think he may have met someone. It just seems like he did. I mean after all you don't have all those dances, and the big cruise proma dn be voted prom king and not have met someone. I realy don't know why I let it bother me so much. I guess because I love him so much. I went to see Lorie yesterday and I even felt weird up there. He didn't really speak to me as usual. But I just felt like I didn't belong for the first time in my life. I don't think I've ever been so lonely. I'm so irritablke lately too. It seems like the least little thing is either going to make me mad or make me cry. Nothing is going right. I miss you. I miss Matthew. I miss the way my life used to be. It seems like I spend my life now missing things. I don't even feel like doing anything anymore. High school, collage, cheerleading, work, trying to have a life, it gets to be so much sometimes. And today was onyl the second day of school and I was running around like a chicken with it's head cut off trying to be e everywhere I needed to be and two places at once and so on. It seems like I dont' even talk to people that were liek my best friends last year either. Kristy's acting funny right now too. Maybe it's because of Johnny, who knows. But I do know it's not something I can deal with right now. I'm just so tired of it all. I thought for sure that when Matthew came back and was away from things, he'd have time to think and everything would start to get better with us again. I even thought he might realize that he needs me in his life too. I went out for the first time ths past Saturday with Paula, Timmy, and Aden. I mean Aden's a really nice guy, but I felt so awkward. He knew it too. The thing was it that he wasn't Matthew. What we did were things me and him used to do all the time. Things, i took for granted. Lorie said he's thinking bout the Air Force again.In a way I so hope he goes. It would be best for him for one thing, but then if he was totally outof my life and that far away, it might help me get over him and forget bout him alittle easier. But then if he's really gone then I'll never see him and I'll knwo there's not any chance for a reconciliation. I don't knwo what would be easier. Well accually nothing is easy. You're probobly the only one who realizes just how much I miss him and just how much I'm hurtin. I'm not sure how much more of all this I can take. I mean yeah, i talk about other guys sometimes, about getting back out there adn dating, but you know, you see it, I'm nto ready. You saw that the other night. If I was truely ready then I wouldn't have thought aboutnothign but Matthew the whole night. going out just made things worse. I even felt like a big fat traitor, liek I was doing something wrong for being with another guy. But I wasn't and Matthew wouldn't be doign anything wrong if he was with a nother girl, but it IS wrong! I can't help it. It drives me crazy to think about. Lisa please send me some love. I feellike I'mjust going through the motions, I;m not really living liek I should be. I've alwasy tried to live alittle part of my life for you too, but I'm having trouble even living my own. Just give me some help here. You know how much I believe in fate. Well send me some good signs. Lush you Lisa. Take care. Love, Kristina

Hey Lisa, How are you doing hun? Good I hope. I have been wanting to talk to you for a while now, I just didnt know what to say though. Today was the first day of school, and ya know it just didnt seem right not sein' you around anywhere laughing, or joking around with anyone and everyone! I have a big favor to ask of you, my sister Chris just passed away on the 17th of August, she had cancer. The thing is I never did get to say good bye to her, and I know shes up there with ya now Lisa, could you please give her a big hug for me, let her know I love her and I miss her a lot! I know for the last couple months she had been going through a lot of pain, and she suffered a lot, so I know that if there is anyone who could cheer her up now and put a smile on that beautiful face of hers it would have to be you! I have to go now, but I want you to know Im missing ya, and I cant wait til we get the chance to talk agian. I love ya!

Hi baby, Wow it looks like you've been getting a lot of "visitors" the past few days. Everytime I log on it seems you have a new message... and to think this time last year you were wanting to transfer to Southern because you didn't think you had any friends *smile* I saw a quote today that had "Lisa" written all over it. It said "To laugh often and much... To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children... To leave the world a better place... To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived... This is to have succeeded." And succeed you did, my sweet angel. I still have people telling me of the impact you made in their lives. You always found a way to make each person feel special. I was thinking of you and Lee Ann's little sister today. I was in awe of you at Eddie's funeral, watching you talk to her in sign language. I can stumble my way through a few words of sign language, but you were carrying on an entire conversation! Where, when and how did you learn all that without me even knowing? She's the only deaf person you know, yet you evidently went out of your way to learn this to be able to be friends with her. You were (still are) and amazing person... Lauren and Casey came up the other night. That was a nice surprise. They make a cute couple... I saw Susie today when I had Alyvea out their way. She invited us in and showed me the pics of you that Melissa has in her room. They all miss you a lot. She said Melissa is a different person now. Send her a little message to be happy again, okay?... I hope by now you've gotten the hug I sent you. Dan (who died last week) and I were talking a few months ago about death. I told him, if he got there before me, to give you a great big hug from me, and he always keeps his promises. He was a good man. I told him to take care of you for me... Ann got a new tattoo the other day, an angel (I wonder why? *smile* She's missing you) Well sweetie, I'm going to go. Livvy is asleep on my lap and its hard to type. Love you baby, XOXO Mom PS... I'm not sure who the rescue squad person who wrote is, but thank you. And the song you mentioned "I'm Already There" is one of my favorite "Lisa" songs, the feel good songs that remind me of her.

Another day closes as I sit here debating on whether or not to write my condolences...I know it has almost been 1 year since the death of such a wonderful young lady with the name of Lisa Wade...Myself and a co-worker here at the squad have named LoneStar's song..All Ready There...A song that will touch many lives with its words. I have read all the past condolences and the way Lois writes I take it as if Danny is still struggling everyday as well as the family, and her many close friends. Take the words of this song as if Lisa was singing them from her heart to all of you.. I am already there, take a look around..I am the sunhine in your hair..I am the moonlight shining down.. Can you feel the love that we share for,I am already there... It continues on..If you have a chance try to find it..But just listen to words of the chorus...I am sure you will see what I mean...I really didn't know Lisa, but I did have the privilege to meet her yrs ago through a mutal friend. Lois and Danny it has had to been an honor to have such a wonderful daughter as her..She has touched so many peoples lives. She treated everyone equal and made EVERYONE feel very welcomed..She was an angel in disquise..But know she is in Heaven shining down..Just carry the words to that song to heart...Until next time...Take care and God Bless..

Leese~ Hey, We go back to school Monday, and if its another year like the past 2, I think I am going to quit, I can't bear that. We started soccer, doesn't feel right without you, me and Dub were talking about how that one day you forgot her, and were like "Gary, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, we have to go get Dub! oh poor Dubby! She's gonna hate me, I can't believe I did that! Gary we gotta go!!" and you two rushed out and she was pulling in as you two were pulling it, that was so funny, and me and Lacey were talking about us running around in out sport bra's and Lacey had on that one thats pink with the flowers of yours. We laughed and laughed. But that was one of the best practices because we were at the wrong place! and Gary left us and didn't come back! We were so mad! *L* Gosh, Lisa I miss you more each day..my high school years have basically been a load of crap. I don't understand why all this had to happen, all of our lives would be alot better if you guys could have just stayed with us, but he needed you's all. I can't believe 4 from OUR grade, that's crazy. Recently, like couple of days ago, one of my managers died at Powertel. You see Powertel isn't a real job, and all the managers there aren't like managers, they are your friends, and it hit me and Kelly pretty hard. One time we got into this Pepsi fight with him and he sprayed it all of us and himself, and we chased him around trying to catch him, it was fun. I'm gonna miss him there, he had 2 kids...I can't believe he is gone...take care of him, and give him a big hug for me! Well I have to go Kelly is here, I love you bunches and bunches!!!! Miss ya! Until later, Jordan

Hey Lisa. Everything has been so screwy lately. I guss you know that my date didn't exactly work out. That girlfriend and kids thing kinda got in the way. But we're still friends I guess, so that's good. Then Carrie talked to you about the whole John thing. That got to me too. Guys are definatly not top on my list right now. Give Carrie alittle love though, she needs it. Lorie and everyone are on their cruise, and I'm, not doing so well. There's a tropical storm down that way, so just please try to keeop them safe. I don't think I could live if anything ever happened to them. I've been missing Matthew more and more these past couple weeks. The thing is, I know he still cares and everyone says he does too, but he just has that attitude right now. I guess he's doing everything he can to push me away and it's killing me. Me and Paula are hoping to go to collage this year and maybe meet someone older that has gotten out of that stage Matthew is in. But to tell you the truth, it all scares me just a little too much. I don't think I could be with someone when Matthew stills holds my heart. I'm still trying to figure out how everythign can just fall apart in a matter of minutes, and how someone can love you so much only to decide he doesn't care anymore. None of it is making sense to me. I don't even think Lorie realizes just how much I love him and how much I miss him now. I still find myself crying over the stupidest things, like looking at a picture, seeing him name on my MSN list, or especially when I'm at his house, that really gets to me. I mean it's his house, and everything there makes me think of him and we had alot of times there that are still fresh in my mind. People seem to think that I should just move on and forget about him, but I can't. I love him way to much. Until Lorie and Keith left, I didn't realize how much I depended on them to keep me together. I really count on them alot. Back to school night is on Thursday. It'll be weird with you not being there. Well I guess you will in spirit. Keep a watch on everyone here. There seems to be a lot of heart ache going on. Talk to you later Lisa, luv ya. Kristina

Lisa~Hey girl! Oh gosh, how I need you right now!! Things have been REAL bad lately!! As you know, Harry's grandfather passed away, and I was at work with him, and answered the phone the night he found out! :( Why!? I mean, his mom called and told me not to let him know she was calling and to get my mom on the phone, so I did! Next thing I know, 20 mintues later, we are in the back goofing off, and Stacie(his mom) and his aunt come in, and next thing, he's bawling his eyes out, and can hardly catch his breath! I mean, come on..hearing and seeing this I was so crushed! He just lost his grandmother not even 3 months ago! Now his grandfather! I couldn't believe it! I walked out where he was getting ready to use the phone, and he dropped it and just gave me a hug, held on real tight, like he didn't want to let go! Like he was scared maybe?! I was crying also..I couldn't help it! All this loss again, brought back so many memories! Alfred(his grandfather) went to my church, so it hit home even more! I mean, why did I answer the phone, why was I there to hear da news when he was..??? I guess its all unanswered questions, but thats ok! Lisa...this whole deal with Johnny...hmm...I dunno..HELP ME!! You always had the right words to say before, and I sure need them now! *tears* How? Why? I mean all these questions and no answers, its just not fair! Lisa, do me a small favor PLEASE..greet Harry's grandfather, Alfred, at the gates, and give him a hug for me and Harry both! Geez..I'm not so sure I can handle much more...I know I can't cry anymore tears...LOIS..my gosh sweetie! I am sorry about your situation..but I'm glad she got in contact with you...to ease your mind! *HUGS* Well, Lisa...shine your ray of hope down on me please! I sure need it with everything going on! I lush ya girl! Take care!! *~Carebear~*

Hey sweet baby! ... Just wrote to say Nancy (Dan's wife)called me this evening. She thought I was probably beating myself up over what happened to Dan. She assured me that she doesn't hold me responsible for his death. She thanked me for telling her when she got to work. Otherwise it would have been their son (10 yrs old?) that found his dad in the morning instead of her when she went home... much worse. So maybe that was my "purpose" in all this?... to spare Joel the trauma? Anyway I'm so glad she called... not that I feel any better about his death (my poor eyes looked like waterlogged sponges *L*) but I can face Nancy now without worrying about her hating me. His heart attack must have been pretty bad. The hospital told her that even if he had gotten to the hospital it might not have done any good. And she reminded me that he was "a big boy". If he was worried he would or could have gotten her up or gone to the hospital... The kids don't quite understand yet. Thet seem to think he's away on a short trip, like a union meeting or something. Poor kids. I feel sorry for Joel and Jesse... I remembered today that Dan and I had talked about death a few months ago. I told him if he got to heaven before I did, for him to give "my baby" a big hug from me. He laughed and said he wasnt sure they'll let him in, and he might have to just wave at you through the fence *L*... So anyway, he better have given you that hug by now, or he's going to have ME to contend with when I get there. *wink* Well sweetie, Ann should be home from work any minute with the Visne for my eyes, so I guess I'll get off here and wait for her... Love you sweet baby, forever and a day... XOXOX Mom

Hi Lisa baby. Man, I need a hug from you right now! I just wanna die, I feel so bad. A good friend of mine died tonight and I feel like it's my fault. Dan LaGratta was working overtime tonight and was working beside me. He was planning to go home at 3 am so Nancy could come to work at 4 am... Anyway, around 1 am, Dan went to the bathroom and came out to get his stuff. He said he was going home early because he didn't feel well. Then he touched the center of his chest and said his chest was hurting a little. I told him his forehead looked a little sweaty too, and asked if he was okay. He said yeah, he was fine, he was just going to go home and rest. Then he said "Don't mention that to anyone" and I said okay, I know how things like that spread like wildfire. So I didn't tell anyone what he said. After awhile I thought maybe I should call his house and tell Nancy, but I figured that he would answer the phone not her, and be mad and me for making something out of nothing, or betraying him by repeating what he asked me not to. So I did nothing... and I feel like my loyalty killed him. I just assumed that if he was worried or thought it was serious, he would wake up Nancy and go to the hospital. When Nancy didn't call in a few minutes to report off, I figured he was okay. Nancy came in at 4:00. I asked her if she talked to Dan before she came to work. She said no. I told her he went home early, she said she knew cause she heard him come in. I told her that he said his chest hurt a little, and he siad not to say anything, and I didnt to anyone but her. She's his wife and I figured he could be mad at me for that much if he wanted but she needed to know. She went home to check on him, and his body was cold. As soon as she called work and said that, his friend Laurence left to go be with her, I totally lost it. I just feel so guilty, like it's my fault. My loyalty may have been what he wanted but in the longrun it's not what he needed. I came home. I didn't want to be there when the news came back, one way or the other. I drove home and woke dad up. Poor guy, he couldn't get me to talk clear enough to find out what was wrong. All he could think of was something happened to Erica, Andrea or Deanna. I finally calmed down enough to tell him. He called work to tell the supervisor that I got home okay and to find out if they had heard anything. I just couldn't do it, couldn't hear it for myself. He's trying to convince me that I did nothing wrong, that I did what Dan had asked me, that he didn't seem that bad when he left, etc etc etc Dad says I need to be strong for Nancy, but I don;t think I have enough strength in me to be strong anymore. I've spent the last year "being strong" and I'm just tired. I said I don't even know why God had to stick me in the middle of this. Why couldn't he have confided in someone else? Dad says it's because I'm strong (strong again... *sigh*) I'm having a hard time convincing myself that I'm not responsible. I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to bring myself to go back to work. I can't face everyone, especially Nancy, feeling like I killed him. Why did I have to be so damn loyal? Why did he have to confide in ME? Why did I have to be involved? Nancy is going to hate me I just know it, I would hate me if I were her. Now I know how the man who hit you feels... the guilt, the "if only's" and "Why hadn't I's" Right now I need a (another) good cry. Send me a hug, will ya? And look for Dan and tell him I'm sorry. Love you baby. XOXO Mom

Hey Lisa. I saw the cross country team running in Coney today and I thought of you. Not that I don't think of you all the time anyway. But when I saw them it just made me think. I remembered that you wouldn't be there this year. Well you'll be there in spirit anyways. School starts in alittle over a week. I'm actually glad. That'll keep m,e busy and keep my mind occupied. Oh yeah, I've kind made a new friend. He's really sweet to me. We might go out tomarrow night. I guess the only slight problem is that he's alittle bit older then me. Okay okay maybe a lot older then me. But oh well, if he's nice to me and makes me feel good then that's all that matters. I'm kinda hoping it works out. It might help if you could help things along from up there alittle. You make sure we get to go out tomarrow night, adn I can take things from there! ;) Lois, I hope you're doing okay. I read your last entry and you sounded pretty down. Take care and I send you all my love. Lisa, as always, I miss you. Talk to you later! Kristina

For the first time since I've lost you I've actually solved a problem without pittying myself for not having you here to complain to :p I still wish I could have my *lisadvice* I miss you, and I wish so bad I had you to help me..but I'm glad I learned so much from you! You taught so many of us how to actually live life to it's fullest! We all owe ya big time! I suppose it's weird to think that it's almost been a year since we've lost you..but on the bright side it's almost one year closer to the day we'll see you again..I miss you with every beat of my heart..I lush ya so much!

Hello Lisa, How are you my sweet little angel? It's 3:30 am and I've been lying in bed trying to sleep for over an hour, so I thought I'd might as well get up. My mind just wouldn't shut up. I kept thinking of and all the hopes and dreams I had for you and your life. Like last weekend, for example. Dad and I went to April's wedding. Erica was her maid of honor and looked beautiful as usual. April looked radiant. I couldn't help but cry because every time I looked up at her all I could see was you and the wedding day you won't have. You would make such a beautiful bride... your face beaming with happiness, with a radiant smile and a twinkle in your eyes for the man you love. Damn it, sometimes it just seems so unfair! I have to keep reminding myself that what you have now is so much better than anything you could ever have here. Sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes I think I'm doing okay, then *pow* all I can do is think of you. People probably get sick of hearing me talk about you. I was listening to a song today that always reminds me of you "...her book is lying on the bed, the two of hearts to mark her page. Now who could ever walk away, with so much left undone? So she can't be really gone..." That's the way I feel sometimes, like surely you'll be coming back!... I'm trying to transfer to Westernport post office if they get a part time opening. I really need to work less hours to have time to get through all this... and Westernport is about as perfect as I could ask for, only ten minutes from home (and sleeping nights can't hurt either *L*)... Today is Britt's birthday. So give her a big hug from me and wish her a Happy Sweet Sixteen. I love you baby, and miss you. XOXOXO Mom

Lisa, Well I thought that I was finnally starting to heal and starting to get over Matthew. Then it happened. Last night I got an email from him that said how sorry he was for hurting me and that he still loved me. Well as I'm sure you know, I was elated. I went to see him and Lorie today and me adn him rode down to LaVale together, but he didn't say anything bout it. So anyway when I finnally asked him about it, he said is wasn't him who sent it and then he got mad at me. I don't understand. If it wasn't him, then who was it, and why would they want to hurt me liek that. I was so upset, so I just left. I really don't understand all this. It feels like another step back for me though. I would have said yes I forgive you, and I love you too. I knwo I would have. And now this. Oh Lisa, I thought this was finnally the answer to my prayers. And no everything, adn any hope I ever had is shattered. Please help me and shine some of your love and strenghth down on me. I really need it now. I miss you Lisa. Lush you forever adn a day.

Hey Lisa, I haven't written for awhile. I've been pretty busy. All I do is work anymore. That's where I was the day of your ran. I guess I figured you'd know I had a good reason for not being there. I was rather ticked that I couldn't come. Oh well, I was there in spirit. I'm sure you know this too, but things are finally over with me and Matthew. He's inot some things I really really don't aprove of and he knows that so there's not much more I can do. The last time I saw him he was so rude to me that he had me in tears so... Anyway, instead of crying, I'm speading money! I got four new speakers for my car, subs, and an amp. Oh yeah, I ordered these really cool looking blue halogen headlights for me car too. I love it, I finally have a car I can play with. School starts soon, and collage right after that. I'm doing early collage with Paula this year. Next week is cheerleading camp. I can't imagine the soccer games without you this year. I remember the first game after you well, after you went to heaven they spray painted a big "50" at the end of the feild. And then they had a moment of silence for you. Well I guess you know all of this. It was awfel. Me and Paula stood there on the sidelines bawling our eyes out. Lisa, girl you need to be here again, putting all your energy into your games. It was great to watch you play. I haven't seen your mom for awhile. I guess the last time was when I took Matthew to meet her. I'm going to try and stop by to see you sometime soon before practice starts and everything. I saw something really cute that I wanted to get for you. Anyway, I'll talk to you soon hon. Love, Kristina

Lisa, You have been on my mind non-stop since you died. I miss you .The songs they play on this website makes it soothing yet sad at the same time if you know what I mean. I went up to see your grave for the 2nd time (but the last time was at Eddie's candlelight ceremony, which was at night). Anyway, it looks beautiful, I am gonna put something on it on September 22nd. I wanted to put something on it on Memorial but i decided that i will get you something KooL for your grave (if i can find a place to put it). Lisa, you had so many friends. You were and are loved by many. Everytime i go up to the lake, I pass your house and just want to stop and give your family millions of hugs and just reminisce of funny little you. I went to your memorial race and did the fun run/walk. I ran most of it, but then my knees started hurting (but you already knew that) and you already know that winners, too. They gave out trees in memory of you. I planted mine in a pot for now and then i am gonna find the perfect place for it and put angels around it. I love you and lush ya' Lisa. see you at those pearly gates

Hi, my sweet baby... It's been so long since I've written to you on here. But don't think that means I don't think about you. There isn't a day go by that I don't think of you fifty million times. I come here everyday to check for new messages and think about you all the time. Almost everything that happens, every song I hear, every show I watch, reminds me of you. People probably get sick of hearing me talk about you, but talking about my kids comes as naturally to me as breathing does... Sometimes, it seems like your accident happened just yesterday. It all seems so vivid, reliving my nightmare. And other times, it feels like I haven't seen you in ages. I miss seeing you, hearing you, laughing at you, smiling about you... I still smile about you, thinking about the silly and nice etc things you did. I try to think happy thoughts about you rather than cry. It doesn't always work, I still have my crybaby moments, but I try not to let the grief consume me. I miss you so much. You weren't just my baby, you were a friend. And you taught me so much in your short life, and I admired you for a lot of reasons. I hope you knew that... You're 5K run last week was great! Steve did such a good job organizing it. It was so nice to see so many of your friends there. There were almost twice as many people as Steve was hoping for, the weather was great, it was really nice... A good upbeat day. I was dreading it for about a week before for some reason, but that day I was okay. I actually enjyed it. Brittany's dad was there. It was nice to see him. He wore both his Britt shirt and yours over it, to honor you both. We've been hashing around the idea of doing something to honor the four of you, like maybe a Toy;s For Happiness drive in your names, or a food drive... something that would have interested you all. I guess we'll have to think more about it. Well baby, Ann is wanting to check her email and i have to get to bed anyway (It's almost 4 am) so I'll close. I love you sweet pea, and can't wait to see that big smile of yours and give you a big hug... Until that day, I'll be loving and missing you... XOXOXO Love, Mom

Hey girl~ I went to your race yesturday..It was a blast! It was great to see all my friends again..and it was actually fun running..holly donnie and dub were doing *race olympics* the whole time..that made me laugh the whole time I was running. It's so great to be celebrating you and all the things you did. It's so much better than just missing you and not doing anything about it. I'm so thankful to your mom and family. They're so strong, and they're honestly keeping your memory with us, and doing great things with it! I watched the video of you singing and dancing, and doing the talk show impressions, it was deffinatly a very *Lisa thing* theres no other way to describe it. I know you would have been proud of our loud group yelling at the end. Although we were getting funny looks form everybody ~hehe~ It reminded us of something you would do. I'm so glad that I knew you as well as I did..as you said of Eddie "I feel very priviledged that I knew you as well as I did"..I lush ya so much Leese!!

Lisa, Hey dear. I thought I'd write and tell you it didn't work, as I'm sure you already know. We went to McClive's Monday night like we were suppossed to and yeah, we had a good time while we were at the restuarant. I guess it just wasn't like it was before. It was weird. the night that was suppossed to be wonderful, all I wanted to do was cry. I was with the person I love with all my heart, but yet I couldn't tel him that, adn I knew he didn't feel the same way back. We got through dinner then we rode up to the rock like we did so many times before, but it wasn't the same either. Instead of cuddleing and telling eachother how much we were in love, all we did was sit. He didn't even tough me. I tried to talk to him, but he just told me he wasn't going to discuss thatwith me again. I cried, as usual, and it didn't even phase him. I don't knwo how I can have such strong feelings for someone and love then so much and them not feel a thing. I guess it is finnally over. I thought about stopping to see you n the way home, but that was alittle more then I could handle right then.I told him mom, that I just don't think I can do it anymore. I can't put my life on hold for him, until he decides what he wants. It isn't fair to me,a dn I just can't take it. Help me Lisa, I don't kwno what to do anymore, or even what to feel. Sometimes I don't think I feel any emotion. It's all so empty. I'm scared too. Scared of being alone for the rest of my life. I wish you were here so bad. i wish you would just give me some kind of sign that life is going to get better and that maybe it'll all work out the way I so want it to. Just keep an eye on things for me. Take care lisa. Lush you always. Kristina

Lisa, I could tell you everything wong with my life..but you already know it all..so theres no need to go there. I wish I had you to talk to right now..but I know EXACTLY what you'd be saying.."don't worry about things, everything will work out" it'd be much better to hear you say it though..but or now I'll settle for just the thought of it. Basically..what I came here to say is I lush ya lots and lots..never forget it (as if I'd let ya)..and I miss you so much, then again we all do! Well, I believe I've said all that you need to hear right now..it's 2:05 and I need to go to bed..watch over everybody missing you..and believe me, thats EVERYBODY!

Hey Lisa, Sorry that I haven't had too much time to write you. I have been Busy but never to busy for you. I went to a Park up past Blumington, and I went past your gavestone and that is when I couldn't stop thinking about you. I thought of how you were and acted and then I really missed you and every day I miss. At leats one day I will see you and then all the missing will be over. Well Summer is going pretty good, I am getting ready for the beach(Ocean City) for a hole week. I can't wait. I am also leaving for Flordia in November even though that along way away. We are flying so please watch over my plan. ;) I hope you are o.k and watching over all pf us. Lush ya....and Miss you so Much.

Lisa, Well, I take it back, things are as bad as they seemed. I saw him today. He looked like everything was just fine. He was wearing his class ring again. It's weird. That ring didn't leave my neck once in almost six months. You don't know how many times I reach for that necklace and feel the tears come because it's nto there anymore. We made plans to see eachother on Friday. He's going to go get speakers for my car with me. Lisa, why do these things happen? I feel liek he totally betrayed me and my heart. I wish you were here so much. Why can't you be here to make one of your silly faces, or say something to make me laugh. Me and Carrie went to Dairy Queen in Cumberland. She thought this girl there realyl looked like you. She did kinda, in the face, but of course she couldn't hold a candle to you. When we came to visit you, he took my hand and we walked down the hill together. You saw that, how could everything come crashing down like it did. I sit here and talk to you, adn only wish that you would just tell me what to do, and talk to me liek you used to. Nothing is the same anymore. Everytime I see your Mom I want to ask her what you're up to, or where you are. Then I remember and that same feeling comes back to my chest. Kinda like right now. I sit here and talk to you just hoping you'll give me some kind of sign that everything will be okay again, and nothing happens. I know thing that happens, happens for a reason, but is there really a reason that you had to be taken away from everyone who loves you, is there really a reason why my heart is breaking right now, for no good reason? People have all these ideas, like god wanted his angel back, but why couldn't you be an angel right here with all of us? Why couldn't he let you do all the things you wanted to do, and let all the people you love share them with you? It really makes me mad. I mena it is really that hard just to let people be happy with the ones they love? Take care of Matthew to for me. Weather he admits it or not, he is really confused about his life and he is hurting too. Maybe not like I am, but he is, adn I worry about him. Take care Lisa, and I'll talk to you soon. Lush you.

Lisa, Hey hon. Things may be looking alittle bit better. I don't knwo if you had anything to do with that but if you did, Lisa, I'll never be able to thank you enough. I talked to one of Matthew's friends and he told me that he was really upset and that he does care. He just doesn't want to hurt me anymore in the long run when he leaves for the air force. He does care Lisa! We talked, and we have plans to get together later this week. I feel better. Maybe there is a chance for us after all. Just keep an eye on things and make sure they keep going well. I'll talk to you later Lisa. I'm off to bed now. Lush you. Kristina

Lisa, Hey hon. I don't knwo what made me come here right now. Well Matthew broke up with me today. He said he just "didn't love me the way he should". I thought maybe you could help get me through this. I just don't know what to do. I haven't stopped crying for more then five minutes. Oh Lisa, how does everything happen this way. Not too long ago, me and hom went up to visit you and your mom. Now it's all fallen apart. I just wish I understood. I remember when I went through another pretty bad breakup with you know who, you were right there trying to make me smile. You gave me a hug and told me it was okay, he didn't deserve me anyway. It was weird, the day before you died, you told me how you took up for me with him a couple days before. Now here's another one, only worse. I'm sure you know how much I love him, and all the things that I was looking forward too. I wish you were here to make me smile again. I wish I could figure out why life is nothing but hurt. It's just not fair. Anyway, I have to go before I turn into a blubbering mess again. I'll talk to you latter honey. Lush you. Love, Kristina

Leese- Here it is 4th of July, and in all honesty, it couldn't get any crappier. It's my favorite holiday and now its runined. I always imagine how great each 4th of July will be for me, but this one sucked. Last night, must of been it for me, because that was a blast, till I woke up this morning. I should of known with how everything started out this morning, that today, the entire day and night, were going to be horrible, and it was. And the one girl I could count on to call and make it all better isn't here so I can call her on the phone,I can only talk to you by my mind, or prayer, or on this condolence page that none of us should have to come to for anyone in the first place!!! Oh Lisa, it all just makes no sense, no matter how hard any of us try. What Brandy said basically summed everything up, and made me cry harder than I already was from the rest of my oh so wonderful 4th of July. :P Now, what I am wondering, how much further downhill is it going to go from tonight? What's tomorrow going to be like now? I hate these problems, hey, maybe this will hopefully be over within the next few days I hope. Maybe this is all just a mixture of several differant things that just topped it all off...I dunno. Help me out. You know how it is down here, with these problems and how they make you feel, and then you figure it out by the end when its all over with that half of your agony wasn't even worth it?? Well I miss you, as always, and I will forever, that'll never change, at some points, it gets worse. Well I love you bunches..Jordie

*This is a letter that I had written to Lisa shortly after her death-but I changed a few things since I'm putting it on here* Lisa- Well, it's been about 9 months since your departure from this world, yet it seems like only yesterday I say your beautiful smile. What I would give just to be able to hold you in my arms as you once did for me when My Baby Brother was set free. I know and feel the pain and confusion that your sisters are going through, because I'm still living in it. It has just occurred to me that I had never really accepted the loss of Eddie, just as I don't think I will ever accept yours. I'm not ready to say "Goodnight, Goodbye, or even Until we meet again" - I don't want to put any type of closure to what's happened. You're my friend, and friends are forever, Lisa. So why can't you be here? It all seems so unfair and unmerciful; two of the brightest, most athletic, sociable, and trustworthy teenagers a community could ever want- taken so sudden and tragically. I often wonder what my purpose of living is... Eddie and yourself had accomplished so many of your goals while you helped others to accomplish theirs as well. I many times ask myself If I would be happy with what I did with my life if I died tomorrow. Would I leave a lasting impression on my friends and family? I don't honestly know what the answer would be at this point in my life; there are times when I couldn't be happier with the way things have turned out, then there are times when I know that I would be such a disappointment to those who meant the most to me. No matter what, I want all my loved ones to know that I love them with all my heart- just as Lisa and Eddie did theirs. I'm not just talking about the friends that I'm close to now, I mean all the ones that I've lost contact with too. A friend is a friend, nothing can ever change that, NOTHING! Lisa, you were such a wonderful and significant person in my life. I know that I never technically told you how much I loved you or how much I appreciated the impact that you as a friend had made on my life, but I'm certain that you recognized the thanks that I had taken for granted. To this day, it seems that I as well as my friends take every precious moment for granted. Anymore, it seems the harder that we all try to restore our hope and faith- the less we end up believing. Sometimes it's as though there is not a single person that understands that we will be with you again, and that you're not gone- you're here, in mind and spirit. But if we believe, you'll never leave us in doubt. Just as you had never done in the past. I just wanted you to know that there isn't one minute of any day that passes that I don't think of you and all that you meant to me. You were always like the 'lil sister that I wanted. You were the one person that would listen to my problems and not only try to help me, but actually do it. You were also the ONE person that I could always tell all my secrets to and I could always count on you to NOT criticize me over them. To me, that is what being a best friend is all about- being the type of person that you were and forever will be in my heart. Your memory and lasting impression will eternally stay in my mind, heart, and soul. May God bless your family and all that knew you and what you stood for. I'll forever love you will all my heart, and may your memory never part... ~Love Always~

Anyway, I've been meaning to ask you if you have seen a Saint Bernard up there? My dog had to be put to sleep a few weeks ago. But just thinking that he will be with you and Brittany and Eddie, I know that he will be ok. I also wanted to tell you that I'm always thinking about you. Every time that I here Faith Hill's song "There You'll Be", I always think of you. The lyrics are.. "In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky..in my heart there will always be a place for you for all my life..I'll keep a part of you with me..and everywhere I go there you'll be. Well Lisa..I just wanted to say that I miss you and I love you very much. Lush ya! *Codi*

Well Lisa I know I haven't written for a long time, and I'm sorry for that. I guess I really don't knwo what to say. I was cleaning tonight and came across my "Lisa book", the one I keep all of your pictures and things in. I thought I'd get on here nad up date it, and well it seriously depressed me. I guess you never realize how much you care about a person and need them, until they're gone. I saw your mom not to long ago. I almost asked her where you were. I'm not used to you not being here yet. I probobly never will be. I wanted to stop down the other day to see you, but of course Matthew was being a turd again, so we ended up stuck at the house while he fooled with his system for the millionth time! That boy drives me crazy sometimes. Well, before long, I WILL be down to see you, with him too. I guess yous two never got to meet each other. You'd like him. He's a good guy. He's leaving in January for the Air Force, ad it scares me to death to think of him leaving me. Maybe you can pull a few strings and convince him he's better off here with me. I don't know why, but lately I feel like something just isn't right. I've been coing to your page more and more and everytime I end up bawling my eyes out. What gets me most is reading your mom's entries. I don't think I could be as strong as she is. I felt bad about Gizmo and Squid, and Kelli told me about Tummy the Turtle too. Geez Lisa, you're going to have a zoo up there soon. I think you were with me today in Cumberland trying to get to G&G studios. I was on the phone with the secretary there and I ended up running three red lights in about 5 minutes! Glad you were around to watch out for other cars and especially cops. All I need is a big fat ticket in my new car! Well anyway hon, I'm going to get to bed now. I have to work in the morning. Keep smiling that beautiful smile Lisa. Lush you! Love, Kristina

Hey Lisa, How are you? I am sure you are fine. Well I am also fine. As you know summer has started and to me it is already boring. I met alot of people this year in the 9th grade and really became friends with them, and of course I kept my old friends and you in memory and its just boring without those people there. But I do like not going to school. It is great. 9th greade was not bad at all, not as bad as I made it out to be. Well I just wanted to tell you I love you and miss you and I will never forget you.

Lisa Leese- Hey Chick! Well, its Summer, and your not here to share it with me. I honestly don't know if I'll be able to make it to the Garrett County Fair this year, it just won't be the same. Me and Donnie were talking about that. Remember when you always tried to set him with with me constantly?? *L* Not like I mind! *LOL* Look at him...hehe. But if I do end up going this year, I think me and Donnie will go, hopefully like Dub Kelli Lauren and Lacey too maybe. I remember we lost you 3 times last year, the one time to go with this complete stranger to look at his pig or goat or horse or something! You scared us Lisa! Everyone is yelling for you then you just show up and are like "hey guys!" and we're like "Where in the heck have you been?!" *L* You thought it was so sweet we worried about you. Of course we did! Well I told you Mom at the Championship she had to yell for me just once, and she did! No offense to any other players on your team but Lisa look every other Championship you played in it against us, and look how close the games were, and then you weren't there to play, and look it wasn't too close! I always told you you were an awesome soccer player, you never believed me, we believe me now, you were! Give me some of your skills when I play please, I need them! Well I have to go, so I'll talk to you soon. Lush ya bunches, miss you more and always ***Jordie***

Hey baby! Just wanted to write and say hi to you, and to give you heck... Jenn, Lauren and Jordan all said they got "signs" from you lately (and now that I've written this, I expect them to write me with the details *wink*) I'm sure you are starting to feel like you have to hit me over the head with a two by four to get my attention *L*, but don't give up... I'll notice your presence eventually. Maybe I need lessons from your friends on how to "see" you. As Andy said in his message, I went to watch the G&S Coal Co. Angels play the other day. That was so nice of the Schwinabarts to sponsor a team in memory of you and Eddie. They thought the world of you guys. And yes, as Andy said, they lost *L* I must be bad luck. But I enjoyed watching. Andy is such a cutie and funny too (*shhh* but don't tell him I said that) He, Lauren and Lauren's mom brought me a Mother's Day present, or did I tell you that already? That was so nice of them. Part of it was a video tape with you on it from your trip to Tennessee. We watched it before they left. It was nice to see you "in action", especially your ladylike walk out of the pool *L* I haven't watched it since. I could watch it with them here, but I'm not feeling quite strong enough to watch it alone. I miss you baby. And dad's an emotional wreck this week. I suppose it's because of Father's Day coming up this weekend, be with him baby. He's done nothing but cry for days. Last Sunday, we went to Believer's Fellowship. The preacher there, Randy, and his wife Tammy lost their daughter Christy who was, I think 14, in a car wreck right before Eddie died. So I guess we have a common bond, we all know how each other is feeling. I seem to be getting a lot of friends in this "sad club" that I'm in. It's nice to be able to support each other, but would be nicer if we had a happier thing in common. Last Sunday I went to the soccer championships. Your team came in second place. I even cheered (once...just once) for Jordan, even though her team was playing against yours. Let's see, what else is new? I made a CD that I call my "Lisa Song's", a cd of all the songs that make me think of you..."One More Day", "When I Think About Angels", "Tears In Heaven", etc etc etc and it ends with "It's Gonna Be Me", your last favorite song (I will alwys remember you saying "I'll never get sick of this song!") *smile* On good days, the cd makes me smile. On bad days, it gives with something to cry along with. I've been making copies left and right for my old and new friends who have also lost children. The first song, "One More Day", I think came out right after you died. It says "Last night I had a crazy dream, A wish was granted just for me, it could be for anything... I simply asked for one more day with you" Dad and I talked about it one day. We wondered, if God granted us one more day with you, would we hog you all to ourselves for 24 hours, or call everyone and have a big party? We decided we'd just have to share you. We sure couldn't brag about seeing you to all your family and friends. They'd be so mad at us for not letting them know. So, if you come back for a day, we'll have to rent a huge place and invite everyone... *sigh* wouldn't that be nice *smile* ... Oh, I forgot to mention. Grandma, Jim and "Aunt" Muffy came to the soccer games last Sunday. They were (all three) wearing their "Lisa" shirts. Muffy looked so cute! I gave her the tshirt to wear in the Lisa Memorial walk/run. I figured a dog in a tshirt would look really cute, and her being "family" and all *L* she should wear one. I think all of us are entering and are all going to wear our "Lisa" shirts too. Well, speaking of the race, I guess I'd better get off here and go walk. I've gotten lazy in the past few weeks... and a month before the race is NOT time to get lazy *blah* so I'm getting off here to go walk. Love you baby, forever and a day. XOXO Mom

Lisa, I just happened to be checking out your message board and had a thought about the last day of school. As you know I'm sure, tomorrow is the last day of school for this year, and therefore each of the students will be moving from one grade to the next, and an even greater move was of the seniors who just graduated; however, none of these transitions were of any comparison to what you had the chance to experience this year. You had the once in a lifetime chance to go to heaven and meet up with everyone that is already there. You have made a huge transition, that of earth to eternal paradise. Make the best out of it, even though I'm sure you could have done that on your own. Hope to see ya there!!!

Lisa~ Hey chick! Well I'll tell you what, I got a big sign from you and you know what I am talking about! Thank you so much, with the state I've been in for the past 2 months missing you more and more, I needed that one! It makes me feel so much better and good when I think about it, but it might not seem huge to others, but when I was there I started balling. Thank you for that Lisa! I got the message! Well we're going to the championship...I hope your Mom comes to see! Well I have to go, so I'll talk to you soon. Love you bunches! Jordie

Hey baby! ...Gosh,I miss you! (as if you don't know that, but I wanted to write it anyway) I don't know why Memorial Day has hit me so hard, even worse than your birthday and other special days. I went to work Monday night and Tiffany asked if I had a fun holiday. I broke down and cried (which I'm sure made her feel like heck *L*) Bill told me to go sit in the break room until I calmed down but I said I just wanted to get to work and get my mind on something else. I feel like I'm back to where I was last fall... one day at a time. I don't want to imagine missing you this much the rest of my life, next month or even next week. So I have to concentrate on just getting through today, one day at a time. Help me out here baby... I guess you know Bandit got hit by a van and died today. Dad had him out of the pen while he was working in the backyard and next thing you know he was out on the road. Andrea's going to miss her little "Squid". Of all things, he had to die on Ann's birthday. We haven't told her yet. She was getting ready to go to Baltimore for the weekend, and we didn't want to upset her before she left. Dad said you must be wanting a collection of our pets up there with you... first Gizmo, now Bandit. He said he wished it could have been him, he misses you so much. Baby, you need to circle him with your love. He really needs you. I worry about him. We all need to feel your love sweetie. None of us are handling your absence well. I did finally dream about you this week! It was weird. You were only about 11 or 12 in the dream, but you had been hit by a truck, the same as your accident last fall, only this time you survived. You were a little disfigured. I remember you had three fingers cut off one hand and your one eye was kind of messed up (but the doctors thought they could fix that in time). But you went to Camp Hickory, even with your bandages and all. When you came home I asked about your trip. You said the kids from the other schools were very nice to you and asked what had happened. There was a few kids from one school who were staring at you, but your new friends told them to knock it off or they'd have to contend with all of them. It was an interesting dream. I'd like to figure out if there's a hidden message to it. Dad said it reminded him of how you were with others... always going out of your way to introduce yourself and get to know someone new, and taking up for others when they were picked on. Well, I've rambled on here long enough. It's 3 am and I guess I should get to bed. I love you baby, forever and a day... XOXO Mom

Hey Leese! It has been a while since I have wrote to you. I was just sitting here watching VH1 and the song *With Arms Wide Open* just came on and it made me think of you so I decided to get on the net and write to ya. I was reading some of the conversations that we had on the net in the history of my icq. You were so *GOOFY* ya know that? That's why I love ya! *wink* I remember on our first day of school at Westmar High, our freshman year we were in the auditorium sitting with our homeroom and we were so scared being in the *BIG* school that we walked to homeroom together and that was the day we first became friends and I will remember that day the rest of my life! I never ever told you how special you are to me, but I just want you to know that you are VERY special to me and I love and miss you with all my heart! I think about you so much and I can't wait till the day that I see your face again and that big beautiful smile of yours! Well .. I just thought I would drop a few lines by. Take care up there, and tell Everyone I love them! Love *Always* .. Amanda Ps. The garden that your mom and dad made for you is VERY beautiful!!!!

Lisa, It's been a long while....8 months. You know that you are missed. I miss you..everyone misses you down here. I keep on thinking about how..your passing on has made me think. I mean since you've been gone...Man Oh Man...has it been rough. I was at my cast party for "Arsenic and Ol' Lace" which was real fun but everyone kept on bringing up the beginning of the year and all's I can think about is you being here and now your gone. Well not forever atleast :). I wish you were here...I always heard how you were a good mentor. I really need some help. Everyone in school seems to hate me. I mean everyone with the name-calling and so on and so forth. I hate it but I just gotta move on. We got our geometry exam tomorrow. How's about You give me some help on it since I gave you some answers before. I wish I could talk to you..I miss you and I have had a few dreams about you and I thank you for giving me some guidance. Diana and I talked a while back how you wanted to be the mascot for the games. Well you may not be the mascot, but you, eddi, jeff, and brittany are our "good-luck" charms. Everyone is always asking me how "stupid westmar is?" Well all i can say is that we got ourselves 4-angels. Well I better let you go. I miss you and Help me. Lush ya'

Hey baby, How are you? I've been pretty lousy the past few days. For 42 years, Memorial Day has been a day of picnics, cookouts, etc. This is not the way I want to "celebrate" Memorial Day. Oh sweetie, this has been like a cruel joke or a bad nightmare, but when I wake up it doesn't go away. I wish I could take your place, so you could have a chance to live a long, fruitful life. Instead, I have to spend the rest of mine missing you. I'm sorry for complaining. I'm just tired of always being "strong". I'll be okay. Take care baby, and take a minute to look down and see how pretty your place (I hate the word "grave") at the cemetary looks (Libby and Brandi even put a plastic lizard on your grave in honor of Gizmo... How's he doing? I miss that little guy *smile*) Love you Scridge, and miss you... XOXO Mom

I've wanted to express my condolences to your family and to all of Lisa's friends. What a painful thing to have to go through. But it seems that you have a wonderful network of support from all who know and love Lisa. She certainly seems like a truly beautiful girl. I admire the relationship that you have together and your ability to share that with everyone who visits this page. Lisa is there with you, and I'm sure that it won't be long until she visits you in your dreams! God Bless.

Hi Baby... How are you sweetie? I'm okay I guess. Just a little blue this evening. Tonight is the prom and I should be watching you get ready for a big night out (I'm sure you would have rounded up a date with someone) not sitting here tinkering on the computer. Kelli was just over getting all dolled up by Erica. She looked so pretty. You'd probably have your license by now and be begging to take my new car tonight (You would LOVE it! It's not blue like I said but you would love it anyway... It's a black Monte Carlo... two door just like you like, a sunroof, nice stereo... something you would probably get in WAAAAY too much trouble with, knowing you *LOL* Not sure if I could afford all your speeding tickets *wink* I'd love to see how fast you can fly now, knowing what a speed demon you were here on earth, on the four wheeler and stuff) Life just seems so unfair sometimes... I stopped and threw rose petals on yours and Eddie's graves on the way home from work this morning, maybe you can have your own special prom together. Tim Schwinabart stopped while I was there. They (the coal company) had sponsored a little league basketball team this year. They named them the "The Angels" in memory of you and Eddie. That was neat. Also, the team wanted a shirt made up for you and he gave it to me. I'll wear it a lot. It The front has "G&S Coal Co" and "Angels" on it... One sleeve has "Lisa" and the other has "Eddie". And the back has "Lisa" and the number "50". It's really cool. I'm so glad they made it and gave it to us. Well baby, Livvy is coming up to spend the night so I better get off here and get ready. I love you sweetie, forever and a day. Send us some love.... XOXO Mom

Hi Lisa, it's me Andy, your online boyfriend, I'm here. I'm sorry that I'm late, but hopefully it's alright. Well, actually I'm not so sure what to say to you, I just miss you too much. I just couldn't believe that you've gone to heaven so soon, I was still expecting to meet you in real life, but it's alright, may be someday I'll have a chance to visit you. I still have a lot of thing to tell you, indeed. I want to tell you that I've changed a new hairstyle, I want to tell you that this year is my first year in college, I want to tell you that I miss you so much. OK, I think that's all for now. I'll write to you again.

Hey baby! Take a look down here and see what dad and I did for you today. We planted you the most beautiful flower garden around. It's got a stone base and an angel in the middle, with gorgeous flowers around her. You'll love it! Dad and I could just hear you saying "Ohhh, you did that for ME? That's so sweet of you guys!" I'll be paying for it for the next few days though. I forgot my sunscreen and have a nice little sunburn to show for it. Dad just went to shower off the dirt and muck, then he has to run down to the nursing home and see grandma. He said to tell you "Hi baby. I love you and will see you soon." He always says he misses hearing you say "Hi dad-deeee" the silly way you used to say it :) We were looking at new cars on the computer last night (2 door, not a 4 door "family car" that you seem to hate so much *L*) Don't know what we'll get or when but we've already decided on blue since it's your favorite color. You'll have to borrow it and take Andy cruising in it the way you told him you would when you got your license (and then actually did in the dream he had about you... you little snot, how about visiting dad and I in OUR dreams? I just bought us a book the other day all about angels. I'm hoping we can learn to open up our spiritual eyes and "see" you with our hearts instead of trying to look for you with our physical eyes... If you remember, Eddie told Brandy to do that, in a dream she had about him right after he died... I'm sorry, I know you are "here" around us, and we REALLY NEED to feel your presence, we just need to learn how and we WILL!... Be patient with us sweetie... Just being able to talk to you on this condolence page that Brian set up does me a world of good) Well, I have to work tonight so I'd better get to bed. Love you, forever and a day... See you baby. Be good ;) XOXO Mom and Dad

Leese, Hey there girl! Hows things in heaven? I suppose you know how things are down here..You're shinning your beautiful angel eyes down on us..but things have been really rough lately. I miss you more than ever. Everyday I can think of another Lisa Memory..and while I cherrish them..sometimes they hurt so bad. I remember bathing Gizmo in your bathtub hehe..that was so funny..Then when he was beating up your cat with his tail..yeah that was funny..hopeflly you and giz are having fun up there..geesh I can only imagine. I suppose you wanted him with ya. I can't wait till the day I get to see you again, sometimes I just feel like stopping and just telling the world to quit turning, and telling everybody to stop moving just cause it feels so wrong going on without you..and I don't want to! I feel like I can't most of the time..I have nobody to call and talk to about my problems..I tell you about them, but it's just not the same..I miss calling you..sometimes I want to call your house and just ask for you, but I know I can't. I'm not sure what Andy's dream meant, but please ask God not to take my Andy..and not to take any of our other friends..nobody is ready to do this again! Give Eddie a hug for me..and tell everybody we're missing them..Lush Ya Lots Girl!

Lil'Leese~ Hey girlie! Whats going on!? Not to much here! Just kinda blah, if ya know what I mean! *hehe* So how is Gizzy doing up there in his new heavenly home with you!? I'm sure he's doing wonderful, since he has the Lords best angel taking care of him! Your dad WAS RIGHT..you were missing Gizzy like crazy, and he was missing you, so God thought he would make ya both happier, TOGETHER:) Lois, sweetie..I can only begin to imagine how you feel! I do agree though, it would be like losing another piece of Lisa! But, I got some good news for ya, that will hopefully brighten your day hon! All of us, as Lisa's friends, took your words of wisdom and we each EVERYDAY carry a piece of her with us..that way she will NEVER be forgotten. So don't worry..she's with everyone, everyday, in our hearts!:) My prayers are still with and forever will be with your whole family! *MUAH* As for you Miss Jordan! *lol* Scared of Gizmo..whats up with that? He's nothing to be scared of! *hehe* At least Lisa got ya to touch him, even if it was with a sock on! Oh Lisa Lisa..can you and Gizzy both send me some "Gizzard kisses", please? *hehe* Welp..just thought I would write to ya, and let ya know I'm missing ya like always! Take care girl! BE GOOD Lisa, Brit, and Eddie! Peace~N~Love!! *LUSH YA* *~Carebear~*

Leese! Hey! What's going on chick?? Nothing too much here. Andy told me about that dream he had about you, it brought me cold chills. It was soo you! The things you said and did! and while I bring that up, how long have I begged you to talk to me in a dream?!? C'mon I'm expexting you to visit soon now then! Well as you know Neil had a surprise 16th B-day and also as you know your Mom and Dad stopped by, as I know you do watch over them, but I think your Dad needs some special care (as I and everyone else does at certain times.) He's looks like he's having a ruff time. I love your family so much, and of course like every single minute I miss you! I challenged your Dad to a game of basketball, he shouldn't have a problem, I'm really not very good at basketball! ( as you seen before of course!!) We play Keyser this Sunday :P yuck! I know we're not your team for Spring League but just come down and help me if ya could. I remember last year at the end of our soccer season I got really good at the end. And ya know why? I swear you gave me some of your skills and you motivated me, so how about a little of that for Spring League eh? *haha* I heard about Gizzy, but I know you missed him and you took him right up there with ya! Girl, but you know how terrified I was of tha Lizard!!!!! I remember we sat there in your room for an hour with you just trying for me to touch him! Sorry Leese, he just terrified me. But you and your smooth talking ways you got me to pet him one time (with one of your socks on my hand) *LOL* That was a fun night. Well I have to go, but as usual, I'll talk to you soon! Well I miss you bunches!!! Lush ya lots!!!!! *~Jordie~*

Hi baby, it's mom (...AGAIN *L* Sorry, I just love talking to you) *sigh* Oh baby, I miss you and so does dad. He just can't find any joy in anything since you've been gone. Please let him feel your presence and love (me too while you're at it). I worry about him... Anyway, I have sad news (but then maybe you already know. I don't know if pets go to heaven or not) but your iguana Gizmo died last night. I've been dreading the day that would happen because Gizzy's always been so special to me, ever since you brought him home from school almost dead, and you and I nursed him back to health. He was only twelve inches long back then. Yesterday, I knew he was sick and just had a feeling he wasn't going to make it. He looked bad and his body was cool even though he was in his warm cage. I held him, sitting here in the computer chair, talking to him and stroking his head. This time his head was resting on my shoulder and his tail hung down over my legs onto the floor. So he sure did thrive and grow the past five years, didn't he? So anyway, I held him and said my goodbyes (just in case) and laid him on his heat rock to warm up. I checked on him yesterday evening and he was dead. I started crying really hard (1- He was my "favorite" of the pets and 2- He was yours and it was like losing another little piece of you) Dad was trying to comfort me, saying maybe you were missing him and asked God to bring him up to heaven with you... or maybe Gizmo was missing you. Who knows... Anyway, I'm so sick of mourning. I've sat and cried over each of your deaths (Eddie, Jeff, you and Britt) and now this. I guess I should be getting used to all this. But I'm really going to miss seeing Gizzie lounging on the back of the couch sunning himself, or helping himself to catfood out of the cat's dish (with the cat standing right beside him eating along with him *L*) ...another little piece of Lisa gone from my life. Does it ever end? I wanted to go down and dig a hole on top of your grave and bury him with you, but I didn't think the cemetary people would like that too much *smile* Well anyway on to other subjects. Neil's parents had him a Surprise Sixteenth birthday party last night at Dan's Mtn and they invited us. Dad and I went to eat then to the mall to find him a gift from you. I knew he was (is) a special friend of yours. We found a cool pewter keyring with a pretty angel on it (and a funny card...we knew you wouldn't want a serious one). Maybe he'll use it for his first set of car keys and think of you watching over him every time he uses them. *smile* We only popped in for a few minutes, but we got to see a lot of your friends... Bobby (calm down Lisa *L*...and yes, he still looks great *wink*), Hutchie(?), Vinnie, Andrew (Be still my heart *L* You know I always thought he was such a cutie...he still is *wink*) and Neil were playing horseshoes. There were a bunch of kids playing volleyball. I didn't get to talk to them all, but I did say hi to Jordie (Hi Jordie, cause I know you're reading this. She's coming up to the house sometime. She challenged dad to a game of basketball in our driveway), Taryn and Ashley. It was nice seeing your friends. I always enjoy that. Well baby I guess I'd better get a shower. I may run up to see part of the soccer games this afternoon... or maybe I'll stay home and clean *blah* Miss you and love you sweetie...(Take care of Gizzy for me) XOXO Mom

Hey! Happy Belated Birthday ! I would've written to you sooner but I was in Florida...It was fun but I did NOT forget your birthday. I wore your shirt and pin with your soccer pic in it. I have been thinking about u and ur family lately..wondering how they were and especially wondering how Easter and Your 1st Birthday in heaven was. My mom ran into one of Pastor Brown's sons (our old preacher up @ Bloomington) and I didn't mention it...but later I wondered if he knew you had passed away...I miss you and I know that your family has to be too. But all's you can really do is just be happy. You are in heaven with God and that's gotta be great. You're life has been a blessing to not only me but to Westmar. We love you and miss you.!

I told your mom at least it wouldn't blow away but you can bust it if you want to! And I wasn't goin to try out for cheerleading next year until I remebered how many itmes you told me about how much it helped you guys out....and I know that you would want me to keep doin what i like to do...no matter what people say or think! I just got done tellin Courtney about last year when we went D.C and you walked up to that strange dude in the gift shop at the arlington cemetery....and carried on a big long conversation with him!

To Lois and Dan, and Lisa's sisters I just want you to know that I am thinking of all of you today. Through the first year there are many ...Firsts... that will come along. This is the first birthday that you have had without Lisa. I know how you feel. I just want you all to know that your friendship has been invaluable. I will treasure these memories as long as I live. Lisa, I am sure you will be having a party up there today...Save some cake for us...

Leese, Hey you! *~! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!~* I don't know what to do with myself today! Andy came down..that made me happy :) but then in the car he said I should go to your grave..don't think I was running from you girl..but I didn't know what to do! It's so hard to not have you here. You made me what I am today..I can honestly say nobody has ever influenced me so much. I love you with all my heart. I'm going to bring my card down tomorrow..hehe it has a bunch of my favorite memories on it! I'm not sure what to do..I tried laughing at all our old memories, but that makes me even more sad becasue I know it wont happen again..so I just cried. I know you'd be wanting to hit me for crying..but I miss you so much. You will NEVER leave my thoughts. I've taken all the advice you ever gave me and put it to good use. I even read Pandora's box today. I was remembering when you told me that story when everything seemed wrong..You were right theres always hope in the bottom, "you just have to get through everything else first". Have a wonderful birthday! And to Lois: You should NEVER worry about ANYBODY ever forgetting what a wonderful person Lisa was. She touched and changed so many of us. Theres a little bit of her in all of us..thank you so much for bringing her into this world and helping her to inspire so many of us to be a better person! Lush Ya Lois :)

To "Boy Touched by Lisa's Grace" from Midland... This may be an odd way to speak to you, but I didn't know your name or address and I really wanted to respond to your entry. I was truly and enormously touched by what you had to say about Lisa. The greatest blessing of my life has been realizing the impact that my daughter made in her too-short time on earth... to friends, aquaintances and even strangers. It reminds me of a quote that says that people may not remember the things you say or do, but they will never forget the way you made them feel. I'm thankful that Lisa was this type of person, and I'm thankful to you for sharing your feelings in your entry here. You truly made my day when I read it (and reread it again and again) Thank you... To anyone who writes here, please know that I (Lois) read every entry (many of them several times over) You make me feel good with the things you say to us as a family, and it makes me smile to "eavesdrop" on your conversations to Lisa. You brighten my day. Thank you all for loving Lisa as much as I do, and not "forgetting" about her (one of my biggest fears) Thanks... "Lush you" all. XOXO Lois (Mom) PS... You all have made Lisa's grave look so pretty today with all the "presents" Thanks... and thanks Lisa for being nice to me today and not busting all of your balloons... THAT was a first! You little snot, you like playing games with me, don't you? haha... Love, Mom

"Happy Birthday To You, Happy Birthday To You, Happy Birthday Dear Lisa, Happy Birthday To You...." Happy Birthday sweetie! Hope it's a good day for you in heaven. Maybe you'll get lucky and get a "Sweet Sixteen" kiss from Eddie *wink* Libby told me that you and Eddie have showed up in a few of her dreams lately, holding hands and smiling happy smiles at her, as if to let her know that you are both happy. That was so nice to hear... I saw a lot of your friends today. We went to the spring soccer games, a lot of us wearing our "Lisa" tshirts, to get out of the house and around your friends. Steve's team won but your team played well. They did their "One, Two, Three, LISA!" cheer before and after the game and wore their black wristbands. I stopped at the cemetary on the way home. Your grave is just COVERED with flowers, balloons and stuffed animals, etc from your friends. That is so touching, knowing how many people remembered your birthday. Laura, Katelyn and Lydia were there hugging and crying when I got there. I cried with them for a minute but then reminded them that you are in a far better place than we can even imagine. When I got home, Kelli from Piedmont, Amanda and Lacey stopped over to see us and brought me flowers and the pic that Amanda painted of you. So it's been a really nice day of people remembering you. The only thing missing is you (in body... I'm trusting that you were with us in spirit) Well baby, I hope you have a great "Sweet Sixteen Birthday". As always, until we see that beautiful smile of yours again, we'll be loving and missing you. Love you, forever and a day... XOXO Mom

Happy 16th Birthday, Lisa! I'd like to say that I'm not going to mourn your leaving, but instead celebrate your life and the opportunity I was given to know and love you, but it is especially hard today. What I really want most is to wake up and see you sitting here hogging the computer, and to give you a big hug and tell you Happy Birthday, and threaten you not to take my car without permission. Instead, I'll just be grateful that I have so many memories of you making me laugh, and that you helped me learn so much about living. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your life with us. I just wanted to take a minute to say Happy Birthday, and I'm sure it will be a great one for you. I love you, Scridge!

Leese! Hey, Happy Birthday chick!!! So, how was your first one in Heaven?? Well, I sure missed you down here. I remember us talking about it all time, how you would get your license and we would go out and have a blast! We always did didn't we?? Those memories were THE TIME OF MY LIFE! I miss that. I was reading Carrie's entry and she was saying about your party last year and the drink thing. That made me ball and crack up at the same time. You were one incredbly special goof ball! I love you more than words can say! Well, be with your family and friends on this day Leese, we all need it! How was your first Easter in Heaven? I bet was good. Mine was nothing special. But I have to go now..I love you always..forever...and bunches and bunches *~Jordie~* PS. I just want to hear you say "Happy Birthday" in that voice of yours, that was one of my favorites!

Hey Lisa, I felt compelled to write something on your page. I am sorry to have never spoken to you or make a point to meet you. I really believe that everything that happens has a purpose, and for some reason, God taking you by the hand and guiding you to enternal happiness was for a reason. Although you will never again, on earth, see the look of joy or hapiness on your friends faces when they where around you, you certainly shall live on in the hearts and minds of anyone blessed enough to have met you. You may have been taken early and unexpectantly, however, your life and death did impact the lives of so many others such as me. Never again will I waste a moment ( or try not anyway) in life. Your death made me realize the true gift that every person is, and to appreciate every moment I have remaining with those that surround me. Although your death has created a never ending challenge for me, it will definately be a worthwhile reason to seize the moment for what it is worth!! To the family of Lisa( especially Mom), Your daughter may never enjoy the fullness in time of other peoples lives, however her success in touching others, even those she did not know such as me, has made her an angel. For someone who's closest exposure to Lisa was to look closely at her in the funeral home, and silently witness her mother's grief and try to comfort her with a hug, I have been truly blessed by her existance. Peace and Happiness
