Three years may have passed but you have not been forgotten by those that love your dearly and carry your memory in the hearts. Each day is a challenge for them to face without you. Wrap your wings around all of your loved ones and those that were close to you, protect them and help them with their grief. Appear to your loved ones in their dreams in vivid color so they know you are watching over them and also so they can feel your presence. You are a true hero and have not been forgotten.

I visited your grave on today and placed new flowers there. I talked to you as I always do when I go there. Today was especially emotional because it was 3 years to the date of your accident and also because my father is now buried 10 feet away from you as of 2 1/2 months ago. Two of the most important men in my life, together. I woke up this morning thinking of you and remembering the last time I saw you standing, the last hug, the last kiss and the last smile I saw on your handsome face. I will always love you, until I take my last breath. Whenever I get depressed or feeling sorry for myself, I remember your smile, your dimples, the touch of your hand, I remember your love and I feel better. I miss you every minute of every day. I thank God for you being a part of my life. The five years that we were together were the happiest years of my life. My life will never reach that level of happiness again. I miss you so much. I love you baby. Save a seat for me.

I am so lonely for you. Nothing and noone can fill or take your place in my heart or my life. My heart will always belong to you. Maybe someday God will allow me to understand why we have to be seperated. I do believe that I wasn't allowed a chance to say goodbye because it wasn't meant to be goodbye forever. That much I do know, we will be reunited some day never to be parted again. My soul is searching daily for you. Just as you used to tell me in our talks and in your letters that I completed you, I felt the same way. You were truly my better half. One day I will be whole again when we are reunited. Despite how it looks on the outside, it is still hard being here on earth without you. I think of all the things we could be doing together, all the vacations we could have taken. We were supposed to go back to St Thomas on our 5th anniversary. We would have made 7 years last July. I miss you baby so very much. Sometimes I wonder will the tears ever stop flowing. I didn't have enough time with you to show you how much I love you and how much I appreciated you. You were more than I ever thought I deserved. I can only hope that you knew how very special you were to me. You were one of a kind. I love you Boobie. I will forever be your Pooh Bear.

Mrs. Mark Wesley Carthron

I am missing you so very much. If only I could see your smile, your dimples; if only I could hold your hand or lay my head on your strong shoulders. I miss you Mark. I pray that I see you again some day. I know that you and Daddy are watching over me, over us. You guys were the two most important men in my life. My heart longs for you. I love you with all my heart.

Today would have been our 7th anniversary. I have so many wonderful memories of our wedding day, of our honeymoon on the island and of our life together. You were truly a blessing in my life. I love you so much and I will always love you baby. I still wake up with you on my mind and I go to bed with you on my mind. Your physical presence is missed so much, but I know you are watching over me. No one could make me laugh like you could and my memories of us are still putting smiles on my face. I miss you soooooo much sweetheart. Each morning that God allows me to wake up, I thank him for the gift of you in my life and my heart. 7-14-01, the happiest day of my life on this earth. Happy Anniversary Mr. Mark Wesley Carthron, love always and forever, your wife.

Sweetheart, I need you so bad right now. I know your spirit is with me, I can feel it in my heart. My father passed away this afternoon. It hurts so bad, but at the same time it makes me glad to know that he is in heaven with the Lord and my Boobie. He loved you so much. Each time I saw him, he would get teary eyed telling me how much he missed you. He was wearing the watch you gave him when he passed. He loved that state police watch. I have lost the two most important men in my life. Mark, I miss you so much. Oh how I wish that you were hear holding me and telling me that everything is going to be okay. I miss Daddy so much. I remember how proud he was when you asked him for my hand in marriage. He loved you from that minute on. The two of you will have a lot to talk about. I love you sweetheart.

I love you Boobie. Still missing you terribly. Days like today are hard (another birthday). You made a big deal of my birthday, not letting me lift a finger to do anything. One day we will be together again.

I love you and miss you sooooooo much. When I look at your smile in our photographs, it warms my heart and makes me smile. Spring time is almost here (our favorite time of year). I will be missing you and loving you eternally. When we meet again, my heart will be filled with joy once again. I love you Boobie.

I miss you Boobie. I have faith that I will see you again one day. I'm holding on to that. You were my everything and sometimes now, I feel like I have nothing. I have tons of happy memories of you and I together. I often read all the letters you used to write me and the little sticky notes you would leave on the bathroon mirror or in the car. They bring me such joy. I will always love you Mark.

I miss you sweetheart. You would have been 34 years old on 12-26. How I wish I could have celebrated with you. But you are in good company with your big brother Jesus and our Father. I love you with all my heart and I always will. I have been taking life one breath at a time, that's all I can do. It is still hard to breathe without you by my side. I am still blessed because I had you in my life for a season (the best season of my life). Our sould will meet again, I believe that whole heartedly. I know you are one of God's angels and that you are watching over me. I love you baby.

Cpl. Carthron,

Please continue to keep watch over your family and friends from above during the holidays...and always.

Mrs. Carthron,

Continue to remain strong. You and your husband will one day be reunited.

"When I Look to the Sky"- Train

When it rains it pours and opens doors
And floods the floors we thought would always keep us safe and dry
And in the midst of sailing ships we sink our lips into the ones we love
That have to say goodbye

And as I float along this ocean
I can feel you like a notion that won't seem to let me go

Cause when I look to the sky something tells me you're here with me
And you make everything alright
And when I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with me
And I can always find my way when you are here

And every word I didn't say that caught up in some busy day
And every dance on the kitchen floor we didn't have before
And every sunset that we'll miss I'll wrap them all up in a kiss
And pick you up in all of this when I sail away

And as I float along this ocean
I can feel you like a notion that I hope will never leave

Whether I am up or down or in or out or just plane overhead
Instead it just feels like it is impossible to fly
But with you I can spread my wings
to see me over everything that life may send me
When I am hoping it won't pass me by

And when I feel like there is no one that will ever know me
there you are to show me

Cause when I look to the sky something tells me you're here with me
And you make everything alright
And when I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with me
And I can always find my way when you are here

I miss you so much all year long, but this time of year is the hardest. I miss shopping with you picking out gifts for everybody. We used to wear those silly Santa hats to Walmart. We were so goofy at times but I loved every minute of it. I love you baby and I always will. It is still hard to breathe without you. Whenever I start to cry, I remember your beautiful smile and cute dimples and it brings a smile to my face. I'm trying to make the most of my life here on earth, but I long to be in your arms. I want to make it to heaven to be with you Boobie. I have learned not to focus on your death and how it happened, but to focus on the life you lived. I was so blessed to have you in my life. I became a better person because of you. I love you so much baby, but I have faith that our souls will be together again. Continue to watch over me. Missing you until I take my last breath; Love, Poobie
