Please be with us as we travel to Payson.......Let everything be okay........Let it me an easy and quick trip.....We are all so happy for the move and I know you are happy too......

We love you and miss you and that will never change.....You are in  my head and my heart where you will always stay.....

All the memories we share about Payson.....It was good while we lived there before......Now we are returning and that is where we shall remain.....I know your spirit will be with us......

Tommy,

Tomorrow is the big move....We are so excited.....We know its going to be better for us in Payson.....I know that as time goes by I will learn to deal better with you being gone.....It will never get any easier......I will just learn to cope.....Until I see your face again.......


I hope to get the internet up and running in Payson within a couple of days.......Shae has to have it for home school just like I have to have it for writing my books....

Erik is doing a lot better about dealing with things.....You would be so proud of him......

My dearest Tommy,

In a couple of days we will be headed to Payson.....The kids are so excited to be getting out of here.....I know you are happy that we are.....There are no words to explain the feeling I have.....I mean, I want to leave, cannot wait, but I guess because this is the last place that we shared I will cry.....



Payson will be a new chapter in our life.......I know you will go with us and live where we do......I just want you to know I am doing what is best for us all.....I do not know about anything else.....You are the best thing that ever happened to me......


Life is what it is.....Cherish what you have and be proud because you never know when it could be gone.....I loved and cherished you......You showed me a world that I would have never knew....A world of love and understanding, forgiveness, a bond that will never be broken......


I will forever love you.... You are my soul mate....But of course, you know that....All my love.....sent to you....

The kids love you too....You know that too.....We speak your name all the time and that will never stop.....

Love you with all our hearts.......

Your loving family,
Melinda, Shae, & Erik

Tommy,

Just wanted to say I love you.....We are really getting things packed now.....We only have a couple of days until the move....We cannot wait......The new place will be good for us.....I know you agree.....

Our sunset

The kids are excited about moving....They do not like it where we currently live...But how could they....The missing of you has done it for us here.....But I know you understand that and want us to move from here...We know you will be with us on this journey and you will like it there too.....

We shared good memories there in Payson....you and me.....we were there with your dad and we all loved it.....so I know this is the right thing and you also confirmed that in a dream....
For you, My Tommy

Shae loves it for sure because no more scorpions......I know that made you laugh.....Thank you for the love you gave us and still give to us.....We feel your presence and we know that you love us as we love you....
That will never change......

Love you forever....
Your wife and kids,
Melinda, Shae, & Erik

I pray Tommy that today is better than yesterday......It was very sad and emotional all day.....It was very empty without you here.....One of the hardest days I had to go through.......You are so missed I cannot explain it.....


I sat a plate out for you and kept looking over wishing I would see you there.....The grief is so overwhelming......


The kids had a bad day too......It was so upsetting.....the whole day seemed so empty......I wish there was something I could do to change the way it is.....


I pray to the Creator God to come and relieve some of the pain....I know he can help us to be able to grip the pain that we feel....It is so hard and I know it will never change but we will find a way to deal with it......


Tommy I need you more than ever......but of course you know that.....Please stay by our sides all the time.....Help us to grow and deal with this pain that we all feel....I cannot explain the pain it is so deep.......
I know you know what I am saying......I know you will help us to find a way....


Love you with all of my heart....so do the kids......

November 24, 2011 Thanksgiving Day

The day is going to be very hard......I can see you standing here helping me to get the dinner going.....It is so unreal that you are not here in the physical form....How I long to have you here......I know that you are here in spirit standing and watching us......I will fix you a plate and place it at the head of the table where you will be sitting.....


Does anybody know how difficult this will be today.....I guess you could not know unless you have walked that path....So for the ones that have taken and walk it I must say how sorry I am.....For the pain is unbearable......It as if you heart is ripping out of your soul.......


Well I would like to say that the kids and me are spending the day together.....along with the spirit of their dad......We will talk about good memories and I am sure cry a tear.......but we do this for one reason......Tommy was the best husband and dad in the whole world....I want to thank the Creator God for giving me Tommy and my kids.......I want to thank Creator God for all the things he gives......



Your loving wife and kids,
Melinda, Shaelee, & Erik

Well it is the day before Thanksgiving and I know it is going to be hard for us.....The thought of cooking a turkey without you by my side is the hardest thing in the world......We shared in the preparation of Thanksgiving......We cooked together.....washed the dishes together.....laughed together.....everything together........

Our Sunset

So, it is going to very hard......really unbearable......I know you will be here in spirit.....The pain of it all is so hard for me....You were and are my life.....my love.....FOREVER.....


But I know you want me to fix a turkey for the kids.....They love it so much......That is why I am doing it......I love my kids so much.....The love in my heart will always be the same for you....You are my soul mate.....spirit mate......forever........


Now, I know it will be hard for the kids too...They love and miss you just as I do.......It is hard for them too I know.....I will be there for them but know it is so hard without you......


You will be here in spirit.....I am going to set a place out for you.....a plate with food too......This is our way to say you are here just not in physical form......



Our move is in 5 days so we have a journey to go on......You ride in the car with us and please know I will try and not make a wrong turn as I always do.....I know "me and my directions".....

Love you my babes.......

Getting closer to Thanksgiving......Harder by the minute.......I do give thanks for everything I have.....My kids are  the most important thing to me......They are all I have.....Which is a lot.....Thank you Creator God for all the things I do  have......



I do miss my Tommy and wish I had him......I know Tommy that you understand that......You were my other half....I am at a loss without you.....I talk to you and always will.......You are still my other half and that will never change.....You are not here in the physical form but you are here in spirit and in my heart.....

I will always long to see your face...your smile.....feel your hands......to hear your laughter......That will never change.....Never.......


Sometime I feel empty......Really cannot explain the feeling.....I hope it's all just a nightmare and I wake up to find you here..... If only it was just a nightmare........


Well my sweet babes....I love you forever and ever.......You are on my mind all the time no matter what I am doing......Your forever in my heart......Love you always......

Good morning my babes....Do I have some news for you.....Shaelee wrote an essay for school and I was so proud of her because the essay was about you....I was telling Marie, with Dancing with Bear Publishing about it and ask her if she would like to read it....Of course, she said....Well now it is being turned into a book....Both print and E Book.....Here is the cover....

Shaelee's book for her dad

There are pictures throughout the book of mostly you and her but some of us all.....The cover is beautiful....It is in your honor my babes......I am so proud of her and I know you are too.....She is only thirteen....Amazing.....
The proceeds are to go into a fund for her to go to college.....Marie is one special lady.....We love her dearly....Marie and Dancing with Bear Publishing has been the best to us in our time of need....We greatly appreciate it and I know that you do to Tommy....

Shae and her dad

Well we have a countdown on until we move....It is about 8 days....I know you will journey with us..You will like our new place I am sure.....Feather is going to be scared to death when we move....I am sure it will be very tragic to this kitty because she is so ruined....
