Hi Justin. Today is Valentine's Day and I wanted to wish you a happy one. You are truely missed. I'll never forget all the times we went to Petland, Sonic, Cato, the mall, and just driving around because we were bored. Remember I wanted that snake, but mom wouldn't let me have it..you always told me to get it though. The times you came over and played with Buelo, his misses you too. I had to get rid of him because of the Army and you wanted him. Remember when I worked at Cato and you helped me find an outfit for the oak leaf pageant? Remember when we had that science project at school to do together and you left your bookbag in my mom's car? lol we had to bring it back to you. I will always miss you and I know there were times we had disagreements on things, but I always answered your calls. You are such a wonderful person and I'll never forget the announcement on the radio. I heard it and bursted out in tears right after blowdrying my hair. We will see each other soon though. I miss you and love you.
When it gets to be this time of year and the snow is on the ground I can't help but to think about our younger years together.
We used to do almost everything together...and we LOVED snow days together. Whether is was staying inside and playing Monopoly (even if i sometimes took advantage of you not paying attention) or watching movies...or if we were outside in the snow. Allll of the things that we would build. From cars and slides to igloos and forts...we always came up with something. You were my best and truest friend...Every day you are missed and loved deeply.
I know you'll have the Merriest of all Christmas'!!
Love you, Justin!!!
Happy Thanksgiving Justin. Hope you and the boys have a great view of all the football games today, afterall you have the best seat in the house. Today we give thanks for our time we had with all our angels, although to short. Send you mom and family hugs and kisses today and some extra blessings, they miss you and today will be a hard day. I bet they have made all your favorites. Maybe you and Chance can share his favorite Apple Crunch Pie

Today is the last day I saw you alive. I got the call about the accident on 11-26-07 late at night. I thought you two were OK and just sent to the hospital for treatment. I will never forget the nurse at the hospitl telling me that you and Matt did not make it. That was the beginning of our grief. I don't think I could have made it this far without the knowledge that you and Matt were both born again Christians. I know you both are in Heaven and this gives me peace. Alot has changed in the last year, some for the good and some not. I think you are happy about the decision I made here recently. I am so proud of the man you became, and this will be with me forever. Love you always, Mom
Here are the pumpkins you carved last October. You took this picture on 10-31-07. You were called home to be with Jesus just 26 days later. This month is so hard because you loved the Fall months so much. You will be 21 in 9 more days. What a way to celebrate, with the angels in Heaven.
Love always,
Mom
