Yesterday was so beautiful, the feeling of love was so abundant it over rode the feelings of despair. I am so amazed by the courage and strength you girls have, I am so proud of you! Your mom was there smiling with pride and joy. Y'all keep your heads held high, wouldn't want it any other way. May her light shine when you see darkness, and her love hold you when you feel alone. This little light of mine, I'm going to let it shine. Love you!

Ally, ohh I don't even know where to begin. I met you and your beautiful family almost 7 years ago, it seems like we've been friends forever. I remember making Lindsey her grilled cheese at Lion's Beach, I remember our long nights of rummy at the lake and late night swims in the pool. I remember frogger in the camper and watching Hugh paint the sky lights bright blue. I will never forget the presence a room had when you walked in. I have never really lost a close friend until now, I feel like someone ripped my heart out, I feel no spirit, just tears and more tears. I have been checking on your family often, you did such a great job with those girls. You must be so proud of their bravery and leadership through this trying time. Give them more guidance from above, they are still eager to learn the knowledge you have shared with them all these years. I am gonna miss you so much, this town sure won't be the same without you. Hef is getting through each day a little at a time. Your girls have just jumped right in, taken their daddy's hand, and taken charge. I love you, and I am so glad that I got to tell you that in person the last time I saw your sweet face. You are like my sister, and I will always think of you each passing day for the rest of my life. I miss you girl, God do I miss you. Love always, until I see you again.

Our Thoughts and Prayers continue to be with you all. I will always remember Ally's great laugh! She was such a sweet person, so fun loving and happy. It just isn't fair she was taken so young. What an awesome reunion it must have been though. I bet she was met right at the gates of Heaven by her Mom, Dad, Brother Eddie, and y'alls sweet baby girl. They are together again. Stay strong and close to each other. Hugh, she loved you and y'all s beautiful girls and was so proud of all of you! I believe you will be together again one day.....keep faith. Make her even prouder ~ take care....much love

Into the unknown
We make this long journey together
For as we wish upon this star
The dream comes forth from who We are
Our Rainbow Bridge of Love within
Connects us all back together again
And ever has it been known that Love
Knows not its own depth
Until the hour of separation
We are stardust
We are golden
We Are Our Garden
