My Daddy & My Friend, you were my everything. I was Daddy's little girl. The fishing trips we had and all the laughter you brought into our home...left the day God called you home. You were suppose to come to our home that day God decided to carry you to his. The night I told you, bye, I never dreamed it would be our final here on earth. Oh Daddy, I love you so much! I know you're at rest and your work on earth was done. It's always so hard to let go but I find comfort in knowing we will meet again someday. You'd be so proud of me & my accomplishments. You have a Granddaughter...you'd be so proud of her, as I am! You were the apple of my eye and I never thought you'd die. Daddy, you taught me so much, in such a short time...joy, peace, harmony, courage (to feel, to need, & to reach out), freedom, friendship, wisdom (to learn, to change, & to let go), acceptance, growth, pleasure (in all that I see, and touch, and do), happiness (with myself & the world), and LOVE! Thank You, Daddy. I'll Love You, Forever!!! I remember you use to call me your Sunshine & you'll never knew how much your smile lite up my life!! What a happy day that will be, when we meet again!! My Love for You will never Die!! Thank you for the memories here on earth! I Love You, Daddy!!!!!!!

Our great "Atlanta Brave". Loved and remembered from this day forward. He lived life to the fullest but at age 23 he didn't live a full life. Keep our Braves winning, you have the best helper with you in heaven.

Daniel was my much loved son. he was killed on a zebra crossing the pain of losing him will never fade. i have lost my son my best friend and half of me has gone. thank you daniel for all the love you gave me. you will live on for ever in my heart.

Dell was my grandfather. His unconditional love always gave me the courage to live life to the fullest. I think of him every day and miss him more each time. Those who knew him were lucky to have him in their lives.

Donnie, I remember you when we used to joke around. I miss you lots! But you're with Shawn Reeves now, and I hope you two keep each other company from time to time. It's amazing that we three went to school together, but you two were the ones to die. Why? But anyway, I remember you were very funny, and sweet. You are very much missed. Love Yah, Heather

Tucker was a gifted draftsman, cartoonist, comic and mimic. He loved his motorcycles; one of which, a BSA, he rebuilt from scratch. He was passionate about everything that took his interest. He was loved by many.

Dad, The road you traveled was not an easy one, but you never spoke of your hardships or pain. You always felt others pain more than your own. In business you were honest and fair. To friends you were sincere and always there. As a Dad, no daughter could have asked for any better. We had a bond that even death cannot fade. I thank God for giving us that one last time to talk on the night He chose to end your pain. You knew it was time and you faced this new journey without fear or anger, but with peaceful resignation. Tears of sadness I couldn't control, but I know someday they will be tears of joy when I join you in Heaven. All my love, Linda

Mark was... a Star. In life, and most certaintly, in death. There are few people that we know in this lifetime (or lucky to even know one) who bring such happiness into our life's... so unconditionally. Mark was this person. He was always happy to hear from me and always willing to be there for whatever I may need at the time... anytime. But as much as he deserved the same in return; he never would let on any suffering that he himself was going through. He never wanted to 'burden' others with anything but his smile, his jokes, and his warm love. When he foung out that he had AIDS... he didn't want anyone to know. He only told one or two people. One of the people he told, was my oldest and best friend Mike. Mike told me in confidence; and as much as I wanted to grab Mark and hug him and tell him I'd be there for him because I loved him... I had to give Mark the ONLY thing he wanted. Silence. My heart broke as the illness took more and more of Mark away from us. I know he knew how much he meant to me. I always told him so. I just wish I could have comforted him, and been near him, and said good-bye. It has been 6 years now since he's been gone... and I miss him as much if not more all the time. What a wonderful spirit. What a bright star. Shine on Mark...shine on.
I love you,
Tina

Hey Grant; Just wanted you to know just how much I miss and love you. You were to young to be taken away from us. Twenty years is not enough time to spend with your child. I don't understand why God has to take the good ones and leave the bad ones here. I know that those bad ones can never hurt you again. God will deal with them in time. They will not go unpunished for taking you away from us. I do know that you are being well taken care of, and that you are watching over us as much as you can. I can feel when you are here. I really could use a big hug right now. You had the best hugs around. I know that when my time comes, that you will be there waiting to greet me and show me around your new home. I know it must be really beautiful up there. You need to keep yourself busy and earn your wings if you haven't already. Be happy baby. I know you are safe. I miss you so very much. I will love you always and forever.
Mom

Rest in peace Dear little one,
Beautiful tiny newborn Son.
You will be sadly missed,
by me and everyone.

May you always walk in sunshine and God's love around you flow, for the happiness you gave us, no one will ever know, it broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone, a part of us went with you, the day God called you home. A million times we've needed you. A million times we've cried. If love could have saved you, You never would have died. The Lord be with you and may you rest in peace. Amen. Rock On Scoot, We All Loved You, and We'll always Miss You! Your Family Bobby, Anthony, Joe, & Roxanne

Dear Dad,

I miss you so much. I hope you know we loved you even when you were stubborn and stern.

I hope now you can fly, I hope now you can be peaceful,

I hope that you are on a wonderful journey and that perhaps we will meet again.

I am glad that you were my father and I will remember the good times, and I may remember the bad times, but I will cherish all the times no matter what they may have been.

You were taken from us way too soon and we will never forget you Pop.

I love you. Mom loves you. We all love you forever!!!

May you be on a great adventure and may you find only peace and joy in the Otherworld.

I love you, I love you , I love you.

God looked around His garden and found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face
He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest
God's garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best
He knew that you were suffering, he knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never get well on earth again
He saw the road was getting rough
and the hills were hard to climb
So he closed your weary eyelids
and whispered "Peace Be Thine"
It broke our hearts to lose you but you didn't go alone

For part of us went with you the day God called you home

We miss you everyday. Mike, Libby, Pat, Sandra, John, Aggie and all your grandkids

Daddy:

We miss you each and every day of our lives. You have 13 grandchildren now and a great grandaughter named Alexis who is a little doll.

With all our love,

Cornelia, Mike, Libby, Pat, Sandra, John, Aggie and all your grandkids

Mom, I will always miss you. I was your Princess. You were always loving and kind to me. I wish you didn't die so early in my life. God knows I needed you. I'll never forget the day I learned that you died. It was so unexpected. I didn't even know you were sick. I am so thankful that you loved Jesus, because I love Him too, and so I have comfort in the knowledge of His Word, that I will see you again.

Until the day of ressurrection,

Always I love you,

Your Princess xoxoxo

Up in the sky a young gentle rapper lies. And like a bird he finally flies. In peace as his mama cries. Tupac was from the hood. But in all that bad there was good. I saw the good. And I loved him like everyone should. He did the best he could. With shiny eyes,black as coal. He struggled hard to reach his goal. Murdered in cold blood. May God take mercy on his soul. R.I.P

A six year old girl with her bicycle. She was crossing the street as she had been taught, to walk the bike across, not ride. She was three feet from the edge of the road when a selfish drunk driver struck her and killed her instantly. That man robbed me of a sister that I would never grow up to know, to hold her hand, to be her friend. He took away a confidant I would never have, a maid of honor at my wedding, an aunt to my children. He took away my right as a human being to have a sister to love and adore, to laugh with, to cherish. I was only 18 months old at the time of the accident so I am left going through life with the statement "what if", and that statement alone is a powerful one. What if.. she lived, how would we have lived our lives, where would she be today, what would she be doing. This man has caused me great anger. She was so sweet and pure, innocent and precious. There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of her. She is sadly missed by all of her family, but most of all by me, her sister, her only sister. I love you Kris, and I miss you terribly. I just hope that we will meet again someday... Love always and forever.. Kim

No matter how old you are, no matter how sick she is, the death of your mother is one of life's most tragic events. We lived together for so many years ... sure we had our moments, but I will always remember her laughter and her humor, her wit and her wisdom, her warmth and her love. Mom, I will miss you very much.

This if for my Pop...who was taken away from me unexpectedly....I was a daddy's girl who could do no wrong.....all I've ever wanted to do is make you proud...sometimes I feel as if I've failed....but in my heart I know you still love me....and someday we'll be able to see each other again....I miss and love you very much....until the day we meet again... your little girl, Beth

To my young son Brad. How I miss you son. I love you so much. Brad was killed by another teen in July 1999. This teen confronted Brad and then got him in a headlock and twisted his neck. He was really dead that night, but paramedics revived his heart and from there was on life support for four days. This happened in a parking lot with a crowd of teens watching. How sad for them to see something like that. Brad I will never forget you son, I'll love you forever. My precious precious child. Love Mom

A warm, wonderful, down-to-earth guy who was my "rock" for many years - he was the best friend I'll ever know. Sleep well "John Boy" . . I miss you and look forward to seeing you again in a much better place. Thanks for all the beautifull memories. janet

Anna was and still is loved by all those who cared about her. I did not even meet her but her love was spread all over the northern hemisphere I loved her as I she was my own daughter but god had taken her away from us for a better life.

a persoonal note from me

It is said that the lord takes people away for a special mission in this case it is true because Anna has become an angel and not just any kind of angel Anna became a watcher. this is the most special kind of angel there is. Anna was granted my god to watch over the people who when she was a live loved and cared about her and when they are in heaven she will watch over there children.

Grandma all I have of you is your picture and the stories Dad tells of a wonderful and beautiful woman who loved her children very much. I know you are with me and one day we will meet.

Dad, I will always miss your quick smile and wit but mostly I will miss knowing that you were always there for me. We will meet again and what a reunion it will be! Your grandkids are growing into wonderful young adults. You would be proud of them. I love you dad, I always will.

Its a lonely life without you
for nothing seems the same
All we have is memories
and your photo in a frame
We travel to your resting place
and place your flowers with care
But no-one knows the heartache
as we turn and leave you there
So put your arms around her Lord
and kiss her smiling face
For she was so very special
and will never be replaced
Let the winds of love blow gently
and whisper so you hear
That we all miss and love you
and wish you were still here

Still missed by his family and many friends. He was a good husband and a loving father.

Dearest Grandma,
I still think of you and miss you. Maybe when I cross over, you'll be there for me, to meet me, yes?!
You were the best grandma! I really loved visiting you and always enjoyed your wonderful sense of humor.
I wish that I could've had you in the world a little longer, but I'm sure you've seen all the things happening and have helped me when I needed it. Thank you for always making me feel loved and appreciated and special.
Love, your granddaughter,
Shelley

A beautiful daughter
A wonderful mother

Her dance through life ended too abruptly

She is now with dad, continuing to dance
once again!

Hey "A" what do you say,
We love and miss you past the moon,
past the stars.

I will always remember my teacher who kept me working on my studies, even though I sometimes lost any inspiration. His unique and unconventional personality won't be forgotten. Whereever you may be: Cheers!

Clara E. Turzenski, affectionately known by friends and relatives alike, as "Grandma T", passed away on December 20, 2000. Grandma T had been in good health her whole life and was awaiting her 95th birthday when she fell and broke her hip. While recovering well from the broken hip, T was placed in a nursing home which has since been cited with numerous violations for poor patient care and T was indeed one of the victim's of this poor care. After contracting pneumonia in the nursing home and recovering from that as well, she fell one evening while getting out of bed unassisted and suffered a subdural hematoma which eventually led to her death. Her daughters, Camille Lind and Dorothy Sroda, were at her side almost constantly while she was recovering in the nursing home and held out hope that T would return home again. Her house was decorated for Christmas as that's how sure of her return her family continued to be. In her last days she saw most of her family members who were home for Christmas and who were ready to celebrate with T. It was not to be, however, and her family stayed by her side as she entered the kingdom of heaven on December 20th. No one made "melting moment" cookies or her specialty, "pierogies", as did T. She was a selfless person who always gave away more than she had, even if it meant that she would go without something. That was her nature. There's not a day that goes by that her family looks into any part of their house and finds treasures that Grandma T gave them, from handcrafted wreaths to centerpieces to floral arrangements. It brings tears to her family's eyes still when they think that, while Grandma T lived a long life, she should still be here with us today if it were not for that fateful stay in the nursing home. Tears of happy rembrances and tears of sadness will always be shed for "Grandma T" who is missed by her daughters, her grandchildren, Cammy Wipperfurth, Patty Manthey, Julie Koehler, Nancy Lind, Thomas Lind, Lauri Sroda, Scott Sroda, Brian Sroda, and her great-grandchildren, Mitchell Lind, Jordan Lind, Claira Lind (who was named after Grandma T just a short time ago), MaKynna Lesinski and Jensynn Lesinski, Adam and Aaron Wipperfurth, Matthew and Timothy Manthey, Alexander and Austin Koehler. May their families always share the memories of Grandma T with their children.

WE ALL MISS YOU GRANDMA T AND WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!

Max Turzenski, a salesperson of stainless steel products for many years, starting at the Brenner Corporation in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin passed away from a sudden stroke the day after Easter. He will be missed by his family, friends and business associates. His wife and three daughters survive him.

Four years ago I watched you, leave our world for another.I watched the pain you felt slip quickly from your soul, You found your peace at last. As time goes by for me, I realize my pain is just beginning. No longer able to see your beautiful face, to hear your laughter, to feel your embrace. I go on living every moment of my life with you in my heart and mind, missing you with every breath and every tear that continues to fall. I am here left to live without you left to keep your memory alive, left to ask myself "What would Momma say?" or "What would Momma do?" Time is supposed to heal the pain, the pain of losing you is so great, that I need just a little more time - to heal myself from the pain of missing you. Momma you are still my Hero, only now you have become my Angel too, watching over me from above, helping me on my way Someday years from now I will once again feel your embrace, under God's watchful eye in Heaven's beautiful Garden. Forever and always missing you, your loving daughter Lianne.

I look forward to the afterlife, knowing that someone precious is there, waiting for me. In a lively vision I see my brother Jonathan boarding a heavenly train which is bound for his new home. His appearance changes along the way, the weight of age and sorrow vanishing while handsome youth reappears. He notices as his sense of confusion fades that he is no longer afraid. He steps in childlike wonder off the train at a brightly decorated station, where the scent of flowers not only perfumes the air but also strokes the breeze with a dancing melody.

This is no lonely place but a new world, strangely familiar, the sunlit image whose shadow only we see on earth. Here, landscapes and cities as beautiful as spring gardens are inhabited by people of light, who welcome new arrivals with joy and compassion.

In his new home Jon is treasured for his unique self. The creativity of his nature is given full play here. Finding himself released from the limitations of imperfect flesh, he soon discovers infinite opportunities to express his feelings, to give and receive love, and to increase the learning and skills acquired in his earthly lifetime. His music, his art, his poetic sense, his unceasing generosity, his gentle love of creatures and creation, have fitted him well for the eternal life.

In the future, the shadow of Jon's heavenly achievements will bring inspiration to generations of artists on the earth. I hope he will prepare a home for me and mine, ready to join him when our dark night, at last, becomes bright day.

For my brother, Jon Tuttle
Reborn to spirit on June 12, 1994
