Love Given, Love Gained  / Adriane Frieson (Grand Nana )
Toni,
You are the jewel of my life and I am so glad God allowed me to be the mother figure in your life. My life is so much better because you're in it. More than that, I am so glad that God is the ruler of heaven and earth. Although my wish is that I could have held Amber and loved her and taught her to sing just like I did for you (my baby), God said he loved her more. I know that when Christians are absent (love given) from the body they are present (love gained) with the Lord, so I gain joy in the fact that I'll see her again in heaven.
Remember: Trust in the Lord with ALL thine heart and lean not to thine own understanding. In all thy ways (every path that God leads you down) acknowledge Him (ask him) and he shall direct your path (He will answer you).  Close

The meaning of a name  / Jen And Dan Torza (Family)

Dear Sweet Amber Lynn,

Oh, how so much is said about you through your name.  Amber meaning precious jewel/golden and Lynn meaning beautiful/pretty one.  You are both golden and beautiful to all those here who love you so deeply.  You were so precious and so beautiful, that heaven just wouldn't be the same without you, so Jesus kept you with him. Your face gives all of us here on earth a glimpse of that beauty we will someday knwo when we get to heaven with you.  So many things about you I will miss, like learning to braid your long beautiful hair, buying you pretty little dresses, and listening to all your little secrets that only aunties are aloud to hear. I know I will share eternity with you some day, until then I will enjoy the sound of your beautiful voice singing to me in my dreams.

All our love,

Auntie Jen, Uncle Dan,  Derek and Drew

Peace and Joy  / Matt &. Lisa McLaughlin (Friends)
Amber,

Today is the day your parents anxiously anticipated your arrival.  Your early arrival was not expected and passed so quickly.  You are missed so much and no one will ever understand why our hellos were also a good-byes.

We miss you and look forward to the day we meet you in heaven.  Romans 5:1-5 tells us that we can have peace and joy through suffering.  It is hard to understand today, but know that tomorrow holds something special for you and your family on earth.

We miss you and love you,

Matt, Lisa, Riley & Abby Close

Words can't express our feelings sometimes...  / Gidget Schildgen

I'm so sorry for your loss.  When I'm at a loss for words I always go to the one place where words never fail  - so...I thought I'd let His Word speak truth.

"Beloved, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who 'fall asleep,'
or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in Him...Therefore, encourage each other with these words." 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18

He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When
others are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God
has given us. 2Cor 1:4

Just a few more words that I find powerful from a song...
This is what it means to be held.
How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive.
This is what it is to be loved.
And to know that the promise was
When everything fell we’d be held.
from Held by Natalie Grant

Please do not hesitate to call on me if you need anything.  Love in Christ, Gidget

DEAR MOMMY  / SELMA FLYNN BOBBY MOM (friend)
Dear Mommy When you wonder the meaning of life and love Know that I am with you.Close your eyes and feel me kissing youIn the gentle breeze across your cheek. When you begin to doubt that you shall ever see me again, Quiet your mind and hear me.I am in the whisper of the heavens Speaking of your love. When you lose your idenity, When you question who you are, and where you are going, Open your heart and see me. I am the twinkle in the stars smiling down upon you, Lighting the path for your journey. When you awaken each morning not remembering your dreams, But feeling content and serene Know that I am with you Filling your nights with thoughts of me. When you linger in the remnant pain, Wholeness seeming so unfamiliar, Think of me. Know that I am with you Touching you through shared tears of a gentle friend Easing the pain . As the sunrise illuminates the desert sky In that breathtaking brilliance, awaken your spirit. Think of our time together, all too brief, but ever brilliant. When you are certain of us together, When you are certain of your destiny, Know that God created that moment in time, just for us. I am with you always. Close
