To the Williams Family,
I don't know you but I felt compelled to write this family. Family, weeping may endure for a night but JOY comes in the morning. On that glorious day when we all will be sitting around God's throne. For those of us that didn't have the opportunity to meet Alexis we will be introduced by the Lord. Family, truly I am sorry for your loss but the Lord makes no mistakes. Just hold on to God's unchanging hands. Whenever you are feeling lonely just call on Jesus and he is there.

To,Micheal,Wilma,and Neshia,
God so loved this world that he gave his only son,So knowing that you can be sure that Alexi is his daughter and he gave everything on Saturday so she would be able to come home.Alexi is the choosen one and you will be able to see her again on the day God choose you. God walking around in the garden and saw a place that needed to be fill so he came down with his angles and picked Lexi the time was right and she had to leave.Yes it is hard and you don't understand but this was in Gods plans only to let her stay for these seven year.Remember the joy she gave and her laughter and whole her memories close to your heart and she will be with you forever.

Find comfort in knowing that you now have your own little guardian angel watching over you. And Neesha know that you will always be Alexis's My-Tesha

Patty and Mike, I have sat here and thought about what I want to say and no words can express how I feel. I remember the day Patty told me that she was going to have a baby I was thrilled! When we found out that she was having a girl I helped Patty name her I fought with Patty about naming her Alexis but she insisted so Patty let me pick out her Middle name.
Then came the day that Lexi was born and I was there with Patty helping her thru everything. She was the prettiest baby!I loved and still love Lexi with all of my heart and miss her everyday!
As Patty and Mike both used to say Alexis is your girl Shelly and indeed she was and still is. She will be greatly missed by her "Auntie" Shelly and my Children, Kenneth, Brandon and Allyson.
Just know Patty and Mike that your families are in my thoughts at this time. I wish that I could be there with you in this time of need, but just know that in spirit I am there with you all.
I have pleasure knowing that Alexis McKaylan Williams is watching over us and she is Smiling down saying "Mommy look theres my Aunt Shelly!

I love you Alexis and you will always be by my side as I walk thru life!

Patty and Mike I know you have alot of support down there and I know that I am not there with you right now but if you need just a Shoulder to cry on or just someoone to talk to I am here for you both.
I love you guys!

To the family of little Alexis Williams, I do not know you- but I just had to send my deepest sympathy to your family. We know that mistakes happens on our behalf ( that is as human beings); but know that God makes no mistake. He was ready for His little angel to come and be with Him in Paradise. I cannot imagine the hurt and pain that you all are feeling right now. She was so precious. Know that God has sent His Holy Comforter to be with you in times like this. Call Him when you feel that your strength is about to fail. He will take care of you in this time of sorrow. With deepest sympathy.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
