One year, four seasons have passed us by since you have been gone.
A new one begins tomorrow with the breaking of the dawn.
Our lives forever changed that day, we will never be the same.
We think about you all the time and often speak your name.
We've cried a million tears since then, it hurt more than words can say
to whisper our last good-byes to you and watch you pass away.
We know we must get on with life existing without you.
Sometimes it seems impossible but you would want us to.
And if we could hear you speak to us you would surely say,
"see ya later, don't be sad, we'll be together again one day."
We imagine you in paradise enjoying many things,
like babysitting cherubs and making angel friends.
We picture you smiling down on us peaceful and care free,
and swimming with some dolphins in a beautiful heavenly sea.
Are you spending time with Grandpa?
Tell him we still care.
We haven't forgotten him either and are sure he met you there.
And when it came time for your pain to end you wanted nothing more
than to take God's hand, follow Him and walk through heaven's door
So until we meet again, sweet Jill, in paradise up above,
we'll hold you forever in our hearts and send you all our love!

In Memory of Jill
Two Years Without You

Two years have passed, time seems to fly;
But memories of you will never die.
Thoughts of you fill each day;
I wonder why you were taken away.
Your life so short, it’s so unfair;
I’m still learning to live without you here.
I long to see your smiling face
Instead of flowers at your resting place.
Missing all the things you should have done;
The dreams you had and all the fun.
So much you still needed to do;
And this year turning 22.
So many words left unspoken;
I’m forever changed, my heart is broken.
On the outside to others I may seem fine;
But the better part of me has died.
But never seeing you again, I can’t conceive;
We’ll be together again, this I believe.
So until that day when I arrive;
In my heart you will forever be alive.

Love, Mom

As time goes by, we don’t understand why
you were called to Heaven above.
We miss you still, and always will;
What never dies is our love
For you every day, in so many ways;
your spirit forever lives on.
Your presence we feel and although not real
the memories will never be gone.
Forever missed, never forgotten.

The past four years
we've missed you so,
And all the joy you brought;
we wanted you to know.

The past four years
we've missed your smile;
Sometimes it seems like forever,
other times just a short while.

The past four years
we've missed your voice.
We wonder why you had to leave;
it was not our choice.

The past four years
we long to feel your touch,
and see your sweet face
that we miss so much.

As time goes on
we still shed many tears;
As we've had to live without you
the past four years
