Hello, I'm Casey & Sean's mom, Allyson. I want to thank all of you for being there for our family through this difficult time. I hope in some way that we were able to be there for you also. You have no idea how much you have all comforted us--Jeff, Monique, Drake, Mike, Erica & myself. Listening to our boys friends talk about the things that you all did together, the funny things that they did with you, and most of all. ..what you would all miss about them the most. We will all miss them dearly...but forever they will be in our thoughts and hearts.

I thought this may be a way for all of us...family and friends...to share our memories. Following is a link that will take you to a posted messages. If you would like to send pictures, I will start a picture page...of you and/or any of Casey, Sean, & Amie that you would like to share with all of us--just click on the email link, tell me about the picture, and I will add.

You all remember that you are welcome any time to visit with us. We know as teenagers you will move on as many of life changes come your way, but forever you all will be a part of us because you were very much a part of our children's lives.....we think of you as family.

To My Boys,

First of all I want to thank God that He let me have you for the time that HE did. Even though I felt the time was way to short. There was a lot more I wanted to do with you. I’m trying to believe in His word that your purpose here was done. (Although I haven’t fully figured that out yet, nor do I ever think that I will.) I so much want to thank you for the love that you gave me. The kiss and hug most every night before you went to bed and as we parted directions during the day. And the "I love yous" that came with the hugs. Please forgive me for the promises that were un-kept. For that I am sorry. One day I WILL see you again, but until then, you are both in my heart and every thought, and I miss you so much. The memories will last till the day I am with you again.

XOXO

Love ya both,

Dad

Dear Boys,
I don't know exactly what to say. I miss you with all my heart and I'll love you like you were my own boys. To let me into your lives and let me love you means more to me than you could ever imagine. I keep telling myself that you'll be home soon, but I know you're already home. Only it's no home I've ever known. I hope and pray that I will see you two again and that you, Sean, will jump on me and tackle me like you used to. Casey, play me a song when I get there and we'll rock heavens pearly gates. Oh boys, I miss you so much and my heart breaks every minute of everyday wishing so much that you were here. I want to apologize to you both. I'm so very sorry that I couldn't say no. I'm so very sorry that I couldn't protect you when you needed it the most. I thank you for the time that we've shared together and the memories we made. I thank you for touching my heart with your beautiful smiles, silly laughs, and corny actions. I thank you for the hugs and kisses and I love yous. Please forgive me for my selfishness of wanting you here and not there. Please forgive me boys.
I love you both. Miss you so much every day.
your step-mom,
Monique

To My precious child, my firstborn, my only daughter. Forever frozen in time at 16 years old. I often wonder what you are doing in heaven. Are you painting with Picasso, are you jammin' with John Lennon, are you writing with Edgar Allen Poe or are you maybe dining with my mom, my dad and my sister? Is God right there with you joining in on the activities? I can still see your beautiful smile, your gorgeous hair and I can hear that warm laughter of yours. I have no regrets...I loved you with all of my heart every second of your life and I know that you knew it to be true. My shopping partner...I am the minority now in this house full of boys (eewy). I miss you so terribly, but I am so grateful that you are at peace...that you no longer have to suffer the injustices that this world sometimes offers us. I don't know if you can see it from heaven but the sun does not shine as brightly anymore and the grass is not as green as is was before you left to be with the Lord. This world will forever be changed without your sweet spirit, sassy humor and easy going manner. I watched when you were born as you took your first breath and I watched when you left this world as you took your last breath. I miss you baby girl....hold on tightly to that piece of my heart that you took with you when you died...hold it close to you. The remainder of my life I will live well to honor you and the precious memories you left me. You know that your brother Garrett will always carry your love and memory with him and we will share our memories with little Hayden in hopes that he will at least have some idea of how awesome of a sister he had (the 'essence of Amie' ahhh, what a difficult task to try to convey to him....but we will do our best, I promise). I am so very, very blessed to have had you for the 16 short years of your life that God allowed me. I thank God for loaning you to me and I don't blame Him for wanting you back... you are incredible. Until we meet again baby girl.

I LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU,
Mom

We Will Always Remember.
