Cristal Ann Tibbets died at the age of 3 1/2, after living a brief, but difficult life. She had been horribly abused by her birth parents, both physically and sexually, and was adopted just a few months ago. During her brief stay on this earth, she touched the lives of many. Her death was due to the system shocks to her organs from the abuse. Although her life here was filled with pain, she is now experiencing the ultimate joy with her best friend, Jesus.

Merle Tibbetts was my beloved grandfather. He took the place of the Dad I never had. He was a kind and loving man, never angry, always gentle. I remember his nickname for me as a little girl"sparky". He still used it when I was in my 30's. Granpa owned the corner store in our small town, and my happiest childhood memories were of days sitting in there with him, reading comic book, and drinking cherry cokes. I would sometimes be allowed to "help" him wash glasses, with a nifty little gadget that sprayed water inside them. When my Mom and I moved away for a few years, he would send me packages of comics once a month, of the favorites that I loved. When I had a daughter of my own, he was a best friend to her too. We lost him 10 years ago next week, and I want the world to know what a special man he was. He is still greatly missed and loved by his entire family

God must have thought you were so precious that He needed you more than I did, so he used you. He used you to help others, and you have. Even as small and innocent as you were you were a miracle to others. You were beautiful. I didn't have much time with you but you will never be forgotten. I will always be your momi and you will always be my angel. I love you and I know one day we will be reunited again, and we will have all the time in the world to spend with each other...love momi

To My Wonderful Aunt You WERE the only Mother that I ever knew. Thank you for giving me my "wings". You died too young, only 57, Just when I was becomming an Adult and could appreciate you. I am taking good care of your Daughter and your Great-Nieces and Newphews. I KNOW you are in heaven, and I feel your presence with me quite often. I love you and miss you more than words can express. Love You Niece....Mara Flores

Nickname: Swany. He was a very special person, born in Molo Vukovje, ZP Kaniska Lvoa, Yugoslavia, to Mato Fticar and Elizabeth Horvat. Swany moved to Serbia where he learned the trade of barrel making. Swany came to America in October of 1949, and resided in Saginaw, Michigan where he worked in the auto industry until 1968. He spent the remainder of his days working in his garden, tending to his vinyard, making his own wines. He was also very interested in shortwave radio, stereo systems, CB radio, and recording techniques. Zvonko (another nickname) was an advid lover of his cats and dogs, enough cannot be said about his love for animals of all kinds. Swany passed away at his home where he wanted to be, with his dog 'Frtiz' at his side. He will be missed dearly.

His heart wasnt beating:0(There wasnt any blood flowing thru his veins,When I hugged him his body was cold and hard,his neck was broken.I was waiting for him to open his pretty blue eyes.His body was there but there was nothing on the inside.His soul was gone,my baby was gone:0(

In the whole world that day there was no one by my side but you. Now you are gone. You give me strength. When I think about life I think about you. I know you will always lead my path. A part of you is in me, which means we will always be together forever. You will always be a part of me, always. He loves me and he will protect me. In loving memory your grandson Todd

My brother Gerry died when I was 19. Though I loved him, I really hardly knew him. He was a natural person; he was not affected in any way. He worked hard, and played hard. 18 years later, I still miss him.

very passionate person, maybe too passionate

To my beautiful daughter Susie, who left me so suddenly.

When Bluebells are in bloom again
We will walk the Dell,
Arm in arm we'll tread the path
In peace we'll breath the scent.

I'll see you in shaft's of light,
Among the trees so green.
The breeze that lifts the Calendine;
I know that you'll be there.

I'll hear you laugh among the brook.
It's water sparkling bright.
Your spirit souring with the birds;
Your tears, of gentle rain.

I'll be there to guide you on,
Through time and thought together.
As always I'm by your side, now and forever.

No goodbyes I'll say to you
Your're in my heart forever.

Love you always Susie
