So I wrote to you on November 14 for your five year of passing but it was never published. Anyways I still can't believe all that has taken place in five years. But at least you got your dad with you. I miss you both so very much. Life just isn't the same without the both of you.
– From Aunt Terry on November 27, 2016

Five years ago you broke our hearts but you at least have your dad by your side. Knowing that we will all be together again is a comfort; however the wait is excruciating. Love and miss you both.

– From Terry on December 25, 2015

So hard to believe it's been four years already. These holidays coming up without your dad and you are going to be the toughest time of the year for me. I take comfort in the fact that you two are together and finally resting in peace. Till we meet again!!!
– From Aunt Terry on November 12, 2015

Shawn, my friend. I wrote to you yesterday asking you to relay a message to your father, and learned last night that both you and your Dad were called to Heaven too soon, and are now watching over us all down here. My heart hurts, but I know that you are both spreading your joy and awesomeness throughout the Heavens! Miss you, my friend, and say "Hello" to your Dad for me. R.I.P. to you both. Paul
– From Paul Paxson on September 5, 2015

I guess you wanted your dad with you. As you know by now, he lost his battle with cancer and I'm sure the two of you are in a better place now. May you both finally rest in peace. Love and miss you both and always will.
– From Aunt Terry on July 2, 2015

Happy Birthday...your dad isn't doing to well. The cancer is a tough one for him. But he is thinking of you as always.

Dear Shawn, you may be thinking "Who's this random guy that lit a candle on my wall?". Well, you may not know me, but from what I learned about you through your mother, I think of you as a really cool person, and I hold you in the highest respect. I hope that Heaven has internet connection up there, and that you'll be able to see all of these people who care about you so much. I really wish that I could've met you. Most sincerely, Evan

There's not a day yet where we all don't miss you so much. I haven't told your dad about this site because I think it would be too much for him. I'm trying hard to keep his spirits up - he misses you and loves you so much. Hopefully time will replace the sadness with happy memories.

– From Dennis and Diane Croce on December 22, 2011

Click note for music I'm Spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this Year I see the countless Christmas trees, Around the world below. With tiny lights, like heaven's stars, Reflecting on the snow. The sight is so spectacular, Please wipe away that tear. For I'm spending Christmas, With Jesus Christ this year. I hear the many Christmas songs, That people hold so dear. But the sounds of music can't compare, With the Christmas choir up here. For I have no words to tell you, The joy their voices bring. For it is beyond description, To hear the angels sing. I can't tell you of the splendor, Or the peace here in this place. Can you just imagine Christmas, With our Savior, face to face? I'll ask Him to light your spirit, As I tell Him of your love. So then pray one for another, As I lift you eyes above. Please let your hearts be joyful, And let your spirit sing. For I'm Spending Christmas in Heaven, And I'm walking with the King. ~© Wanda Bencke ~ Share this poem: Holiday Poetry Main Poetry Greeting Cards The Author has copyright © of the poems Page images and content copyright © 2000-2003 tcastle.com
