"November 11,2004 Happy 33rd Birthday to You, my sweet Love, When I close my eyes, I hear Angels singing above. It's been two months since I saw you last, Each day I ache for you present, and not in my past. However, I consider myself the most fortunate girl on this Earth, to have met such a gentleman whose Love committed me true and restored my self-worth. You treated me always like a Queen, at my worst times, on you I could lean. Whether cooking me dinner, or drawing me a warm bath, You had the exact equation to make me feel better, you knew the math! My sweetest Rob, though we part, You may take with you my heart. You pumped it full of Love and Joy, It shall always belong to You, my baby boy. Rob,no one could compare or ever take Your place, Please help guide me through this life, for You are my saving Grace. Your tender touch and selfless way, shall forever be remembered with each passing day. All my Love now, and until we are united again, forever and all eternity. Jenn XXXOOO"

"We only knew each other for a short time. But that time changed our lives forever. We have the most amazing, beautiful and loving daughter anyone could wish for. I'm sorry you never got to meet her. You have always been and always will be in our thoughts. At least you are at peace now. Maybe you can watch over Lorna for me..."

"Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there I do not sleep I am a thousand winds that blow I am the dimond glint on snow I am the sunlight on ripened grain I am the autumn rain when you awake in the morning brush, I am the swif uplifting rush of birds cirling in flight I am the stars that shine at night Do not stand at my grave and weep I do not sleep Author Unknown My wish for your family is peace, comfort in knowing,and faith."
