Roses to Tina from mom  / Mother Of Christina

If Roses Grow in Heaven

If roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my daughter's arms
And tell her they are from me.
Tell her I love her and I miss her,
And when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek.
And hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day.
But there's an ache in my heart
That will never go away.

Author Unknown

One year is almost hear since i last seen my daughter. Lord tell her that i love her and miss her so much. Let her know that every time i see a butterfly it reminds me that she is free. And it gives me comfort knowing that she has no more suffering. Remind her that i will see her again one day,when you come to take me home. Until then others need me here for them. Love Mom

If I could hold you one more time  / Mother Christina


WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME


When tomorrow starts without me
and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things
we didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time you think of me
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name
and took me by the hand
and said my place was ready
in heaven far above
and that I would have to leave behind
all those I dearly love.

As I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
from his great golden throne,
He said "This is eternity, and all I've promised you."
Today my life on Earth is past
but here it starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow
but today will always last,
and since each day is the same day
there's no longing for the past.
So won't you take my hand, and share my life with me?
When tomorrow starts without me
don't think we're far apart,
for everytime you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

- Angela Nicole Hebblethwaite & Martha White

Missing you so very much  / Heather L. (Soul Sister )
Dear Tina,

I miss you so much and it is so hard to believe that almost a year has gone by since you left this earth. You will always be my soul sister in my heart and no one can replace the friendship that we had. I miss our hours of conversation about anything and everything when we had our girly nights of makeup and nail polish:) You gave me many good memories that I will cherish the rest of my life. Thankyou for that and thankyou for always being a true friend.
Love always,
Heather Close

To Donna  / Barb Okey (Aunt To Candice Bertram)
I havent lit a candle for Christina for a very long time but I want you to know that I still come to her site and read everything about her. Today reading the site I had to write to you. It is so sad how rude people can be, they just dont know when to stop. The way I look at it is they either have too much time on thier hands or they themselves have problems of their own.
 My niece Candice has been gone now for almost 31/2 years and there are still so many unanswered questions that we will never know. I always tell myself she is in a better place and NOBODY can hurt her anymore.
 Hopefully my niece and Christina have met up in heaven. My niece was and is a sweetheart and from what I have read so is Christina.
You and your family are always in my prayers
Barb ( Aunt of Candice) Close

As I Hold You In It's Flight  / Justin Lesh's Family

Did you see that butterfly
flying towards your way?
Fluttering up above you
as if it wants to say.

I am all around you
circling ever so close.
Making sure you notice it
in the wind that often blows?

I'm sending you those butterflies
in hopes that you will see.
That I am always thinking of you
and sending love from me.


Sometimes you will see just one,
or maybe two or three.
So you’ll stop and feel my love
and know that they're from me.

I send them all in many colors
yellow, brown, or blue.
I send them to you all the time
to let you know that "I love you".

So the next time that you see
a butterfly close around.
Stop and watch it, think of me
not needing to make a sound.

With the beauty of its wings
always staying in your sight.
Carrying all my hugs and love,
as I hold you in its flight.

Letters to mom  / Mother Of Christina Valle
Tina,I was going over all the cards and letters that you gave to me over the years. It felt so good to know how much you loved me. I, was in therapy the other day,and mention about a piece that you had written in your journal. She asked what. I, said Tina had wrote in there mother I, wished I, could have been more like you. She said what a wonderful thing she left for you to remember,and how good that must feel for you to know. I, love you so much Tina, and only you, me and Jesus knows how we felt for each other. No matter what others want to believe I, know in my heart what we had,and people are always going to hurt others if they are not happy themselves. I, am going to heal,because the Lord has plans for me and that is to be there for others. The Lord was persecuted right up to the end. If he was, then I, need not worry about what they say and do to hurt me. I, forgive in my own heart and thats all Jesus needs. And all I, need to go on. Tomorrow is my B-day and I, laugh when I, think how you surprised me last year. We had so much 
fun laughing together. I, will never forget you I, have some
very wonderful memories of you. I, love you Angel.

Fun day at school  / Mother Of Christina Valle
Dear Tina, today was grandparents day, and I, enjoyed going to school and having lunch with my grandchildren. They did not know that I, would be there with their great grandmother, and their eyes lit up when they saw us there. I am so blessed and I owe it all to the Lord. God is so good Tina. And he will bless us in April,when your brother Joey and Jessica have their little one. I know you would be so happy for them. You could not wait for that day to happen. I love you and miss you oh so very much. Rest honey until he comes back for those who love him and gives us that glorified body. Close

Missing you  / Mother
Dear Tina, grandma had her surgery. Everything looks good. She is a strong woman. When she was on that ventelator, I had thought of you. I left the hospital and went to see your gravesite. It was very pretty and peaceful. I miss you so much. Love mom Close

Heavy heart  / Mother
Tina just wanted to say goodnite. It is late and Johnathan is finally oh his way,to be with his father. He is very excited and I know you would be also. Things are looking strong for now. That is the way I have to take things. Accept and go on. I am going to miss him so much. But we will still be in contac. He is a fine young man. And we all know he will do great in the future. I talked with his dad on 3 way with John,and his dad is so positive and very supported. That is what John needs. Someone who will love him unconditionally. Yet firm in his word,and there for him. I miss you so much Tina.  I cried so much today.  I was washing out the jacuzzi and your polish is still there,from you cleaning it out after you were finished. My heart is so heavy today. But I know it is just another learning for me, to trust Jesus. Grandma is going for her surgery on friday. She will be in icu for two days then on the floor for about four days. She is a strong woman and Jesus sure has his hands on her. Goodnite sweetie I miss you more and more everyday. I sometimes go back and read the hate mail that was sent to you and it breaks me down even more. But it is a way to help heal. I love you, Mother! Close

I miss you Tina  / Donna Mother Of Christina

We walked together, you and I.
A mother and her only daughter.
We had hopes and dreams for tomorrow,
But tomorrow didn't come.
We walked together, you and I.
We talked, we laughed, we loved, we cried.
We shared so much time
And for that, I thank the Lord above.
We walked together, You and I,
But only for a short time.
For all too soon it ended
Leaving pieces of broken hearts behind.
And even though I miss you,
More than words can say,
I thank God that I got to walk with you
Every precious moment of every day.... 

   (CHERISH)              

I, just want others to know that they need to cherish every moment.In the past 8 months there has been so much that I have lost.Tina,my son lost the 2 young couple that was found in humble.His girlfriend worked with her and they all became friends.The lady I work for,the girl that was found in sugarland txs.That was her daughter and I worked with her.She remined me so much of Tina,she was an awsome young adult.It was the Ashton Glover case.And just last night I got a call that my mother had to go to the ER,she had a mild heart attack.But the Lord has given comfort to me,and I am so grateful.*Draw near to him and he will draw near to you.*I have learned so much,because when we live in the kind of world we live in.The Lord is all that we have.Thank you all for the prayers and taking the time out to visit Christina's site.It has helped so much.I to pray for all of those who has lost someone,especially a child.Take time for the ones we love for we do not know what tommorow will bring.I Love and miss you Tina.I will see you again oneday.Mother

A prayer  / Me, Myself And I.

Dear God, Whoever wasted their time in writting 3 useless candles for people to read should get a life. Nobody should judge anyone. THAT IS GOD'S JOB.  I wonder how he will judge you. You can not hurt a mother anymore after she loses a child.  No words, no nothing hurts as much as that. Nobody in this world is perfect, and Tina and her Mom dealt with life as best as they could. May this family be blessed with more tender love than they would know what to do with. Through your son Jesus Christ, AMEN

Keep praying for us  / Mother
Tina thinking of you  tonite. Not really much to talk about. Just siting here thinking about what you said, we do live in such a horrible world. I know that you are so at peace, and think God you don't remember all of this bad. Just keep praying for this world, now that you know the truth. I see and hear so much going on these days. I, am so ready to be with you, but I,  know Jesus is not ready for me. I have to carry on. I have made peace in my heart with some, my prayer is they reanalize  their own lives, for the sake of others. I love you Tina, and miss you everyday. We sent off 32 balloons in memory of your birthday with messages, it was very nice.Love Mom. Close
