YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN / Danielle Mackey (Big Sister )
Tommy,
Happy Birthday! I went to see you yesterday, the day you turned 27. Mom was already there having lunch with you, it is still as hard as the first day we had to leave you there. I brought Ayah there to meet you and she will always know about her Uncle Tommy. Time will never be able to heal the hurt we feel nor the pain we have from you leaving us so early. I still look out the window and see your light. This is just as hard to type as it is to even still come to terms with you not being here. But know that we all love you and miss you more than ever.
Tommy I love you / Linda Burton (Mother) It has been one year and three days since you were taken from us. Every birthday is now not a celebration for me but remeberance of the last day we spent together; and that time and all the times we spent having coffee in the morning talking and other times doing things together; trying to find history and playing golf I celebrate. There isn't a day that goes by that you are not thought of . I still catch myself calling for you or talking as if you are right next to me.
I am making sure that you have flowers for every season. I am also making an album for your daughter Heather for when she gets older she will have your whole life in a book; I just wish it was you she could have. Every picture, every article and a copy of the bill when the law is inacted. Your trophy from the soap box durby, pins from darts, and any thing that we have that had meaning to you. It will be in a pretty big box for her keepsaking. We are also making sure that she will have the college education that you wanted for her and more.
You left a legacy for everyone; you. You taught and showed everyone, you showed how we should treat each other, keeping an open mind, working for what you want; never taking anything for granted or expecting a hand out, forgiveness, how not to judge, and how to laugh. We all miss you. I still have people that you met at a store or even a gas station ask about you.
We are working so hard to get a law passed in your name so that no famiy will have to goe through what ours has had too. And maybe it will deter someone from the leaving an accident possibly saving a life. This law is inspired by you and for you.
Love Mom
I miss you soooo much / Danielle Mackey (Oldest Sister) Tommy,
It has been almost a year and I still feel like it was just a day ago. I know that you had so many things left to do. I cannot go a day without thinking about you and crying. You meant so much to so many people. Now I feel like there is a void in my life, and things will never be whole again. I know that I can look out and see "your light" from the upstairs window, and I know you are there. That is one way to help me to know you are near us.
This is the hardest thing I have ever had to really deal with, but knowing you are with Grandpa Jerry and Aunt Debbie, Grandma Jo, and others makes me feel better knowing you are not alone there either.
I love you and always will. I never thought this would be the way life turned out, always thought we would all grow old, and you would always be there with a bowl of ice cream and a bag full of jokes.
But your name will be one that will never be forgotten, even to those who did not have the pleasure of meeting you.
I love you and hope you can see us from where you are and know that we think of you and all the things you have taught us.
Love Danielle
Offering Comfort / Danielle Chambers
With the deepest of sympathy, I would like to express my sorrow for your loss. Loosing someone you love dearly is something that can be faith testing. Even the faithful man Job asked, "If a man dies, shall he live again?" (Job 14:14) Perhaps you too have asked that question? The Bible promises at Isaiah 26:19 says: "Your dead ones will live...They will rise up." We have proof on a smaller scale that this promise is something that is possible. While Jesus was here on earth he resurrected several people including his friend Lazarus. You can read of that account in John 11. He promises that this resurrection hope will be on a grander scale in the future under his peaceful Kingdom rule. John 5:28,29 says: "the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." It was not God's original purpose for humans to die. when he created Adam and Eve, he instructed them to have children and populate the earth, expanding the beautiful garden they live in. They would die only if they disobeyed God. According the scriptural accounts we know they did disobey God and as Romans 5:12 says: "Through one man (Adam) sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men." So we have inherited sin and death from our forefather Adam. Unfortunately time and unforeseen occurrences befall us, and tragedies strike. (Ecclesiastes 9:11) But the scriptures say at Ecclesiastes 9:5 that the dead "are conscious of nothing at all." So we do not have to worry if our loved ones are suffering at all. They are not. But the pain of sorrow that we may experience may feel unbearable. Psalms 55:22 promises that if we turn to God in prayer "he himself will sustain you."

It is hard to believe that when i wake up tomorrow morning it will have been five years since the last time i heard your voice or saw your smile five years since you made me laugh and taught me something new. you are my big brother my protecter and the perso i call my hero. I never thought life would exist with out you in it and some days it seems it doesnt, but other days you are every where i turn you are in the snow as it falls and the wind as it blows. If i could bring you back to me to mom to heather i would and there wouldnt have been a moment without you in it. some days i find my self picking up the phone to call you as if you were going to answer. sometimes i find my self wondering if you are at skyline eating lunch and if you will be there long enough for me to come join you. there are so many people who were blessed to meet you but there are so many more that havent had the chance to know you and that hurts worse of all. tommy you have given so much and took so little we, the world suffered a great lose when we lost you and i will always be thankful for all the many gifts you have given me in life with your words and wisedom. i love you and on this 18th day of april i truely hope you are experiencing all the wonderful things heaven has to give you. i love you and miss you more than you could every imagine.
As the holidays draw near I cant help but to only want you.
As the first snow flake falls out of the beautiful crisp night air I can
only remeber you.
As the tear falls from my eyes i can only be drawn in to saddness
for you are not here.
As i top the tree with the angel so beautiful and elegant i can only
see your smile.
The only thing i want for christmas is my big brother.
Tommy i love you and wish every day you were here. I don't know
where i am anymore with out you.
i love you always your lil sis

where are you / Geri Craves (sister) I am looking for you, where did you go? are you the wind that blows the leaves, are you the snow that blankets the ground in a warm winter blanket. Are you the wispers that i hear in the distance. I see your face not far from here but the closer i get the further you are. I reach a never ending distance but no matter how fast i run i can not catch up. Always one step ahead of me in life and death. I am searching for your smile, I am searching for your laugh, i need your guidance and your comforting touch. where did you go, when are you comming home, who have you become? The deeper i look the lighter it becomes. for all this time spent finding you, you have never left you have been right here watching over me, by my side and more importantly i know that every time my heart beats you are right here in my heart.

Not a Day Goes Bye / Geri Craves (sister) Not a day goes bye that i dont miss my big brother my protector, and my friend. Tommy I believe i have started to cry more and more for you everyday. There is nothing that doesnt remind me of you. Everyone tells me time makes it easier and i just want to tell them to shut up, because they dont have a clue of what they are talking about. Time is making it worse on me. Every holiday that passes i cant helped to think that it doesnt matter because you are not here to share it with me. Every time i look at my husband and daughter i cant help but to think that it kills me to know that they will never get to know you and that you will never get to know them. people say that there is no way that jacob can remeber you but tommy they are crazy because he rembers every thing about his uncle tommy he reminds me of things that happened that i regretfully forgot. he talks about you all the time. tommy i miss you so very much and for this birthday of yours i plan on doing something that makes the world remember you again. i love you tommy and till the next time i will always remember.
