3yrs AND???  / MOMMA`~ Always~

Forever on my mind & always in my ripped apart heart!

NOw, I start another year, don't expect it to be much different- have had some better Saturday evenings from the gut ripping pain of ea. Saturday being the horrible reminder of you leaving us. but have never had a Saturday where I forgot you left!

3yrs!!!!what a long time without you- ea. day held 24 hrs for me-I can see where I do funtion some of these hrs now but then again, I ask myself"how well am I doing?"

I so wonder how well is your sister doing? I don't want her to hurt anymore than she has to so now I drive around the block to miss a cemetery & I cut a block short so she doesn't have to see all the headstones on display outside where I bought your's! I still see every Pepsi truck! I still beat the dash to the very special songs you liked. Thinking of putting your other drum stick in the van so I can beat the dash like you did!

3 yrs but its all so plain as it happened yesterday- I started going down hill about 2 wks before your B'day & then when it got here, I went into thinking ea day as it happened- the DR., the falls, the emerg. rm- the days waiting for a Neuro surgeon!

TOday, I'm thinking how it was a FRiday & me & your Heather was on our way to see you - not a clue you would never come home!We watched physical therapy come in & try to work with you- Yea, I saw you were numb on one side but we were talking of you being moved to a nice Re-Hab in Ormond- they were going to make it ok- & Dad & I talked after your Saturday morning visit that we'd cut the wall out leading to your bedrm & have the craftmatic bed there for you - Yea, mom would handle it! & i'd hold every glass of tea & Pepsi for you!! but when Saturday evening came & I got that call!!!THen, instead of re-hab on MOnday & moving you to Ormond, I was sitting in the Funeral HOMe picking out a casket!

Saturdays stink as your party was on Saturday, the next one, I was waitng for your next hospital for surgery!, the next SAturday, you left me & the next Saturday, was your burial! I never planned it, it all turned out this way!Pain forever, MOmma

A special man and sweet, sweet soul  / Jason's Sister ((none))

What a beautiful soul you have in this special young man.  

Makes me think so much of my beloved brother Jason (1969-1982, age 13), who was born with Down Syndrome and truly touched so many lives with his sweet love.  He also never knew a stranger, and loved everyone he met.  I laughed at some of the antics you described here, when your Roy was just being himself.  One I will always remember is the new palate expander Jason had put in his mouth to help the dental problems he had.  He decided it felt funny and - WHAM - just reached up and pulled it right out of his mouth !!!!  Jason loved to dance and sing, and loved to go to church.  He loved to dress up and look spiffy, and he was a "ladies man" from very early on!

A few months before our Jason went Home, he knew Jesus was going to come for him.  He began singing "I'll Fly Away" and giving his toys away to friends at school.  He had been sick the year before and we almost lost him then (heart and respiratory failure).  This time it was just too much, and he weakened again and did truly Fly Away to Jesus and our Momma.

Maybe Roy and Jason are pals in Heaven today, what do you think?

I hope to set up a site for Jason soon, and also for our mother (Gladys, 1925-1974) who we lost to cancer when I was 9 and Jason was 5.

I just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed seeing your tribute to Roy and how it touched my heart.  I will light a candle for him in a few moments.

Blessings,

Preecious Memories  / Sherrie Jacobs Momma To Angel Bill (hopefully a friend )
Katie,

You are the best momma. I read all that you wrote and cried, as I am sure you did while writing it. I know Roy now....precious, giant- hearted, funny, REAL. Roy is having some great time right now. He would not want to see his momma sad. I know how hard it is NOT to be, though. He and Mr. Rogers are strolling down memory lane, themselves and having the biggest laughs. He knew he was the luckiest guy to have YOU for his momma. Thank you for sharing the good times and the not so good. WE all have those, too.

Love,

Sherrie
