Linda Lee
I heard so much about her, she
would've been 54 yesterday. Mom always
told me the story,
she had a healthy pregnacy and normal birth, but when
Linda was born she wasn't right.
She
had water on the brain,and was also called a Blue Baby, mom
went to the hospital everyday, Dad watched
kids.I wasn't born yet, but anyway they
said she was getting better,
Mom and Dad was so happy and Mom said the kids
were so excited.Their baby sister was
coming home.
Well Mom and Dad took her clothes and baby buggy up that
day to bring her home.
They told them she'd never come home,she got pneumonia
and wouldn't make it so they better take a picture of
her.
So they did, our sister passed
away from complications on april 19, 1945.Linda, I Miss and
Love You Very Much
My Angel Sister
Linda
Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust
Little Linda is here,
only because she must.
She just couldn't handle it,
God wanted her safe
to be next to him
in her tiny place.
Like the one in my heart,
that she will always hold
for my sweet sister Linda
died when not very old.
Rita Ann
Rita Ann was a cousin I never knew, she
was my mom's sister's daughter. An only
child, Aunt Mary said, she looked just like us girls, she
kept all her toys and would show us them once in awhile,
she loved her so.Rita died from
diptheria in 1942, back then there was no
cure. I dont know what to say except we
miss the cousin we never knew.We Love You Rita Ann, Her mom
is with her now.

C
hild of Heaven
Child of heaven come to earth,
You just could not stay.
This world could not hold you
And so soon you went away.
Like a rare and precious rose,
Your lovely soul can't die.
Budded here upon the earth,
Now it will bloom on high.
You are a child of heaven
And will forever be
In the arms of Jesus
For all eternity.

Billy
Billy was my sister Sharon's baby,
He was stillborn, she didn't
have a hard pregnacy, he was 2 months early, she got up to
go to bathroom,reached up to get something and next thing
we knew she was laying on the floor in a pool of
blood,hemmoraging, unconsciouness She
was taken to the hospital and they done a cc on her,
He was gone! She never saw
him,never even got to go to his
funeral,I remember Dick coming home the
day he died,he stood at fridge with his arm on the door and
cried.
He(Billy) was the first boy
born in our family, first grandson,first
nephew. The funeral was small,I didnt
go, mom didn't want me too, he would've been 38 today!
Little Billy, we miss and Love You Still.
Your our
AngelBilly.
I'll Hold You in
Heaven
From the very beginning I loved you,
As I made plans to hold you and rock
you:
You were tiny and helpless as you lay in my womb,
But something went wrong and soon you were
gone;
My young heart was broken, my tears fell like rain,
I'd never known such heartache and pain.
I wonder who you look like, me or your dad,
Do you have my smile and his eyes?
Would you have been big and tall or tiny and small?
We had dreams for you that reached to the skies.
It was long, long ago and I still miss you
so,
Thanks to Jesus, I'll see you in heaven.
I'll hold you in heaven someday,
When my trials on earth pass away;
The angels have rocked you, the Father watches over
you,
I know you're waiting for me;
I never could hold you or tell you "Goodbye",
But I'll hold you in heaven someday.

Little Louie
Well Little Louie was a 5 1/2 month old term
baby, Sandy had trouble carrying him,
he was fully formed, just wasn't meant to be.
She hemmoraged that night and
lost him, but I know she'll see him in
Heaven And she will hold his Tiny
Little Body,
She'll rejoice with all Our Loving Jesus and All
our Loved ones.Little Louie,I Love You
and Miss You
My Lil Angel
LouieI'll Rock You in
Heaven
The years have passed,
the pain has dulled a little.
But your memory is still so strong.
Though we hugged only thru my
bulging belly, I loved you.
I recall patting you, touching you,
holding you, as you were safe inside
me.
It hurts me to think you might have
had a painful departure from this world.
I hope and pray it wasn't.
My mind still thinks of you hourly;
still I think, "did this really happen?
Did my baby really die?
Surely it's just a bad dream!"
But it did happen, and now you
impact everything I do and say and
think.
Never has anyone so deeply impacted my life.
Never have I been so aware of others'
pain.
You gave me a gift in your life and death,
of compassion, understanding and
patience with others who are hurting,
and for that I thank our Sovereign God.
You gave me closer friends and new friends
, and new insights into the Lord's
ways.
So out of all my pain and heartache
some good has come.
I now find some comfort in knowing. . .
I'll Rock you in heaven!

My Darling Baby
Boy
Oh I remember the night you were born, it was
kinda funny, My brother came to get me
and forgot my mom,as we were leaving she was walking up the
street, of course we picked her up.
Ray was born at 10:am, was an easy delivery
and such a sweet baby, so pretty, had so much
hair. Was in the hospital two days and
took my little darling home.
He was such a good baby,hardly ever cryed
except when he was hungry,
I remember playing with his hair alot,my older
daughter and niece adored him.They
would sit and hold him all the time, my niece was a couple
months pregnant when I had Ray.
Days turned into
weeks,Ray was five weeks old and I took him to the dr. for
a checkup.He had gained 4 lbs in 5
weeks and she said, she was gonna give him his first
shot.
He was a trooper,didn't
even cry.We went home and he slept the
rest of the day and except to wake up and
eat.The next day he was cranky all
day,very unlike him, later that evening he was ok.
Sandy and I played with
him, she put his hair in a bow,put his rattle up to his
mouth and he smiled at us for the first time.
Well I gave him his bottle
about 11:p.m and then I went to bed too. Well he never woke
up,I called the ambulance and my mom,went next door and got
my sister.
The ambulance was there
within minutes,we went to the hospital,they worked on him
for 45 min.
But God wanted him, My
Angel died from what they called it then "crib death" Its
called Sids now. My Darling Angel I'll
Always Love and Miss You, Love,Your
Mommy.
My Angel BabyAnd
The Angel CameThrough The Dark
when death first seized my little one,
Tears of longing dimmed each dawn,
my world stopped cold, through days
ahead.
A puppet dangled in my stead
My heart ablaze, all joy consumed,
Sorrow rank where love just bloomed,
now countless years we've been apart.
I can hold you only in my heart,
called by daily cares and needs.
On altered course, this life proceeds,
when dark within my spirit dwells.
Your light, my little one, lives on,
in my Heart on and on.
center>My Sweet Little Redheaded
Nephew
Gosh I remember so much about Chris, Where do
I begin. Well I remember not wanting to
get close to him, I was afraid to love him, but when you
seen Chris you just automatically fell in Love with
him,
When he first came home I was afraid to hold
him,scared he'd be taken from me, but I got over that,and
he became my babydoll! I Lived with
Sandy then and so did he, w took care of him for quite
awhile, she'd put him to sleep and I'd get up in middle of
the night and feed him.
We'd lay on the bed with him and he'd try to
crawl down to the end of the bed and we'd grab his
foot. Wow would he get mad.He was the
center of our attention,spoiled, but if loving is spoiling
then yes he was spoiled alot.
I remember when he was
about a year old, I had a dream that a small boy in our
family died and was buried in the same lot with my baby
boy.
Scared me to death, but
everyone said,it's just a dream.I moved in with my mom so I
didn't see much of him, except when Sandy or Mary brought
him over.
He always wanted to stay all night and most of
the time I couldn.t refuse him, I gave him anything,we all
did. He loved The incredable hulk, one
night he stayed and was in front of the t.v when it came
on, The Hulk went GRRRRR and Chris made a beline for me and
jumped on top of me,It was so funny!
The last time I saw him
alive was on a friday night, he said, aunt tusie, tan I tay
alnight,I said, no honey maybe next
weekend.If I would of only knew that
next weekend wouldn't come for him.
Two nights later he went to the hospital cause
he could'nt swallow, he was diagnosed with epiglottis.
They(the hospital) told
Sandy and Mary to go home cause he was better and they were
gonna put him in a pediatrics
ward.Sandy didn't want to leave,they
said, they'd call if anything happened.
They(Sandy and Mary) came
and got Johnny(Mary's baby)and went home,we slept with our
ears open that night and when the phone rang, I just got a
awful feeling that it was about Chris.
Sandy talked to Mom first
and I just knew it was about our little Chris,crying Mom
handed me the phone,
Sandy said; Our baby is gone,all I can
remember saying is "Oh No", I went next
door to tell my brother and as I went thru the bedroom I
could see my two oldest kids were just sobbing, they had
overheard,
I went on over and told my brother and he got
mad, I guess from hurting so.The funeral was two days
later, was the hardest thing I ever done to walk in there
and see my Little Chris Laying in a
coffin.
Well I could go on and on but here's where
i'll end. I have so many Angels
Watching over me.
My Little AngelChris,I Miss and Love You
so,You'll live in My Heart Forever
My Angel Chris
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
Heaven is great.
Just like you said,
There's not much longer to wait.
Guess what Aunt Tusie
I have a guardian angel who comes at night.
I told him I wanted to go,
But the times not right.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
My angel came this morning.
While everyone was still in bed,
He came with a warning.
I knew my time was soon.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
When you were finally out of sight,
I told my angel,
The time is just right.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
When you still didn't know I was gone,
My angel put his hand in mine,
And I was no longer stiff or sick,I felt so happy & fine.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
When Gamma called,I saw you crying from above.
And I knew how much I was loved.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
On the way to the hospital I heard you pray,
Please let them bring him back,
I know you don't want God to take me away.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
It looked like you'd never go on.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
I saw Gamma Hold me tight
I kissed you all good-bye with my love,
And tried to tell you I was alright.
Guess what Aunt Tusie,
There's no more pain,
And I'm playing with Ray
Please Aunt Tusie,
Tell Gamma I Love Her
I'll watch all of you all your days through.
And be like your guardian angel,
Just because, I LOVE ALL OF YOU!!
Your Loving Chris
