Caitlin, thank you so much for being a part of my life. We have been through so much together. Thinking about all the times, good and bad, we had together...I feel blessed for you to have been in my life, I can not stress that enough. I wish I could have been there for you more, I wish I was there to hold your hand while you took your last few breaths here on earth. I can not imagine how it went down or how you were feeling. You were probably scared but now you are with your mom, dad, David and even PaPa 2-2. Please give them our love and look over your family and friends. The pain of your death just takes my breath away and I can feel my heart stop. Its unreal.
I remember when we were young and you broke your dad's chair. You were so scared to get in trouble. You me and Liz packed our bags and said we were going to run away. It was late and we decided to go to sleep first. You woke us to runaway and I said "lets runaway tomorrow". The chair was never really broken.
Or when the three of us all got our haircut the same...we looked so cute. And the time you were pretending to call 911...you thought that if you dailed numbers after 911 it would be okay and you werent calling the cops, but they showed up anyways.
Or the time when me you and Timmy got into fights with the Hildabrants..like a family affair
Or when we would go garbage tipping in the alleys. You got caught by someone and that old man made you pick up all the garbage cans. Funny stuff.
I could seriously go on forever, endlessly. You were such a beautiful person with a strong persona. You loved with all your heart. I will never forget you and forever cherish our life together. And you are safe now, away from all the violence in your life and no one can ever hurt you again. That is the only thing that can give me some peace in all of this. This isn't "good-bye"...it never was with us. I will most definately be seeing you again. PLEASE Cait, protect your family and watch over us as you will forever and always have a place in our hearts. Thank you for everything....and letting us be a part of your life. See you when I get there, Sis!!! I love you so much....
Loving Daughter, Sister, Niece, Cousin, Friend!!

Love your Sis- Melissa
Please give Her All My Love
I always took for granted what I thought I'd never lose. Because I never thought it would until I heard the news. They say you were chosen for His garden, His precious hand picked bouquet, "God really needed her, && that's why she couldn't stay" Saying goodbye is never easy, but it was harder to say it to you.
So Today, God, if You are listening in your home above, will you please go && find my sister.. && give her all my LoVe
FoReVeR-In-My-HeArT,
I miss you sooo Much Caitlin
If I could have a lifetime wish, a dream that would come true. I'd pray to God with all my Heart... For yesterday && For You.
You left behind my broken heart and happy memories too, But I never wanted memories, I only wanted you.
Love you More && Miss you so much, and there isn't a day that goes by that you are not on my mind, and in my heart. && Until we meet again, Sis
If I Had One Wish
If I had one wish..that wish would be clear. That I would not have to go, that I could stay here. And although it hurts me to leave you all alone...Just know I’ll come back to you, For now I am gone
FoReVeR-In-YOUR-HeArT,
Caitlin
He Set Me Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free. I'm following the path God laid for me. I took His hand when I heard Him call I turned my back & left it all. I could not stay another day to laugh, love, work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I found my peace at close of day. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, laughs & fights, & tears too..these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow for I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I've savored much, Good friends, good times, A loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, don't lengten it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and share with me, God wanted me now, HE SET ME FREE!
Always, everyday that passes, I think of you and hold you in my heart. I have said this before, if I could have traded places with you, I would. No hesitations. I love you so much, and I just want justice for you. It's not fair the way you had to leave us and I wish I was there for you. There isn't anything I wouldn't do, or give up just to be able to talk to you again, or hear your outrageous laugh. Just when I think I couldn't possibly miss you anymore than I do right now, tomorrow always comes and reminds me that I could. I don't believe that things will ever be okay, or get easier for me. Some things cut too deep for any kind of healing. I love and miss you so much, && until we meet again, Sis..... R.i.ParaDisE!
Thoughts of YOU!
Thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, & & days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories && a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part. God has you in His keeping, I will Always have you FoReVeR iN My HeArT. Miss you Caitlin! && Until we meet again....... R.I.P Love.
FoReVeR-N-My-HeArT
I know I say this all the time, but it’s still hard for me to wrap my mind around how I will never get to see your face, or hear your crazy laugh ever again. There is not one day that doesn’t go by that I am not thinking of you…missing you and wishing things could be so much different. People are always saying that time will heal, make it easier to deal. I can honestly say that is something that I don’t believe will ever happen. One thought of you, no matter what I am doing, my eyes suddenly fill with tears. Nothing really seems to be the same since I got that phone call, the way I think or way I see things and people, its all very different. I know you are in such a better place now, looking over us with everyone else. You are protected and safe, no one can ever hurt you. Even though the loss of you has caused so much pain and sadness, I am, and will forever be, so thankful for the time we did have together and the memories we share. We will all meet again, & I can’t wait for that day. I love you soo much Caitlin. && until we meet again…..
I Am Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me
I took His hand when I heard Him call
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day, to laugh,
to love, to work or play.
Tasks undone must stay that way
I've found that peace at the close of the day.
If parting has left a void, then fill it
with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah, yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish for you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much
Good friends, good times,
a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all to brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts and share with me,
God wants me now, He set me free.
The wind
I know I never knew you, but I know someone who did. Her love for you is strong not unlike the wind. The wind like life is fleeting, touching us then leaving. She has love for you that makes the wind worth breathing. And through the wind I feel I know you. The pain I feel for those who love you is strong- what they must go through. It's wrong.
Rest peasfully Caitlin.
Our Fam(iLy)
