Life gets in a hurry sometimes.....

Roosevelt Lake

My dear precious husband Tommy,


Life gets in a hurry sometimes but you have to grab the reins and slow it down....I have felt like if I did not take a hold everything would spin out of control.....
Roosevelt Lake Visitor's Center


Life is funny at times...my life has been turned upside down and now I am trying to make it as good as I can...I know the kids are having a hard time, just as I do....We miss you Tommy so very much....


Our life will never be the same....What we went through losing you and it's the hardest thing in my life....I miss you more than anything in the world....Your voice, your touch, the way you would show me the way to walk...Just everything....
Animals on display.....Animals of the area


Here are some pictures I took at Roosevelt Lake Visitors Center...It is a great place and the last time we were there as a family.......Shae was very small.....Grandpa and all of us went....It was a great time......One I will cherish forever....The animals are still there for everybody to see.....of course they are not live animals but cute all the same.....


I love you my husband and miss you every day......

A day with you.....


My dear precious husband Tommy,

If only you could have stay here with us....You are the best dad and husband in the whole world....We miss you so much.....


My heart will never mend....it has a hole in it that is never ending....If I could just hold you for a little while...Tell you how much you mean to me and that you live inside me....

Our love is a bond....


My dear precious husband Tommy,

Our love is a bond like no other....We held together through some rough times....It made us stronger and our love soared to heights of bliss.....


There will never be a love like ours unless it happens through our kids...They saw us grow and become one over the years...How we stood up for each other and never could anybody break our bond no matter how hard they tired......


Our bond will stand the test of time and I know one day we will hold each other again....Our bond in the spirit world will be forever strong....I know you wait for me no matter how long it may take...You want me here to raise our daughter and that is all I ask from the Creator....


I love you my precious husband....forever.....


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

Wonders of life.......


My dear precious husband Tommy,


Wonders of life never stop existing....I sat and watch the night sky....looming lightning overhead....The stillness creeps upon the land....


I guess I feel a closeness to Mother Earth and Father Sky...An unique and fragile touch with the earth....I feel the presence of the spirits close to me.....


Just like I know you are close to me my precious husband....You walk the path I walk...Helping me through each day.....Please know just how much you are loved.....


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

Time heals no pain.....


My dear precious husband Tommy,


Time heals no pain....I know this for sure.....Especially the pain of losing you....It is always there tugging at my heart...


There are times I feel I am being suffocated....I hurt in my chest....Tears flow like a raging river out of control.....


My heart is broken....a longing only you would know....its as if a hole is in my heart never to heal.....A part of me went with you on the day you crossed over into the spirit world....


I love you my babes....forever.....

Standing on my own two feet.....


My dear precious husband Tommy,


I am standing on my own two feet......Showing people that I can do this....I want respect and I am demanding it....I hope that everybody can understand that...You taught me to never let anybody run over me....that is what I am doing....


People need to realize they should respect how and what others feel...It can't be a certain way.....It is the way it is....I hope to instill into our kids to always follow their heart....


I miss my husband so much...He was my rock....He is my everything...He will live inside me forever.....


I love you my husband Tommy.....Forever.....
