Bubby,
I think about you everyday. I miss you so badly its unbelievable. I need you so much right now. I need my best friend. Everythings changing and I have no idea what to do. This is one of those times I need my best friend the most. I can only hope my baby takes after you and turns into the amazing person you are. I wish you were here. How badly it hurts to know that he or she will never get to know the one person who meant the most to me. Daddy and Buckie went hunting this week and I got a text from him saying it wasnt the same. I haven't been to the cabin since you've been gone. and I dont think I want to either. It'd just be another stabbing pain. We used to have so much fun! Everywheres full of memories of you. I never knew that looking back on the times we laughed would make me cry. I'm so thankful to have had you for a big brother and the bond that we had. Noone will ever to replace you. In my heart or anywhere else. I Love You more than you will ever imagine and miss you with a pain beyond what words can describe. Please continue watching over us and keep us all safe, our Guardian Angel. I love you Bubby.. Bigger than the Sky. Best Buddies "foreber nd eber"..
XOXO.. Sissy

Chuckles,

I've just been sitting here thinking of you, as I often do. I wanted to jot you a little note and tell you that I miss you terribly and so wish you were here. You always had that way about you to make rough times a bit easier. You were wise far beyond your years and your heart of gold was a big as God's infinite sky. Your laughter was just as infectious. God blessed me with two older boys that were ideal....smart, personable, compassionate, loving and kind. Buck's personality reminds me so much of yours. He's got that way about him just like you did. You're loved and missed beyond belief, Charlie. I know that we will all see you again someday. I can't wait for another of your bear hugs! Please continue to watch out for us, Son. We still need you! I love you.....bigger than the sky!!!!

Jill and Grace prolly wont membr much of u:( ppoor kids. u were the best big brother anyone could ask for. i kno ur lookin over me, and u see all the bad things i have done, i regret the biggest one. i just hope that just lik God u can forgive me. Charlie looks lik u! he is absolutley BEAUTIFUL!!! hes so silly!! hes learnin new thing it seems lik everyday!! he makes the funniest faces!! when he cries it just breaks my heart,, especially wen hes cryin cuz hes hurt. i hope he grows up to b lik Johnathan.. and YOU! hes and awesome little guy! i wish u could meet him!!

Love you son! Your sister was up here for the weekend and we had some nice quiet time, it was great! Everybody misses you so much, it hurts, but we think about you every day and your smile, your heart and your awesome personality helps ease some of the pain. Charlie Dean is something else, he has your big blue eyes and that big comforting smile. He's always happy and laughing and he's a great name sake for you. Your whole family thinks of you often and keeps you in our heart.....You keep us going, Son. You always had a heart of gold and love that could conquer all, and I pray that it flows through Treb and your brother and sisters. I love you, I miss you and you're the best olest son a person could ever have. Keep watching over us, please? We need you.

Bubby, I miss you so much! The holidays are gettin closer and closer. One down, a few more to go.. They are miserable without you. Nothings the same. Oh, how we wish you were here to celebrate all them with us! And most of the birthdays are coming up to. None of us ever liked our birthday "spankins". But it'd still be nice to have you here with us. I just wanted to tell you I Love You Bigger than the Sky. Best Buddies "foreber and eber". Love you forever and always, my hero.

Dear Father who art in Heaven...
Please join our family on this Thanksgiving day
And bless each one as we sit down to pray
As we remember those who have joined You above
So dearly missed and deeply loved.

Please provide us strength on this Thanksgiving day
Bless us with memories of those faraway...
Please grant patience to family and friends as we grieve
And help us reach out to others who are bereaved.

We give thanks to You on this Thanksgiving day....
For Your presence in our lives each and everyday.
For Your comfort, guidance, and never ending love...
And for taking care of our loved ones...in Heaven above.

As we light this candle on this Thanksgiving day...
And it glows in memory of those in Heaven today....
May their lights always shine down on us and give us light...
And may we feel their presence along with Yours tonight.

May the peace and tranquility of this Thanksgiving day
Be an everlasting light within each of us along the way...
Lets bow our heads and give our Thanks to God above..
For our blessings, whether on earth or in Heaven above...
Amen

Bubby, Another holiday without you's almost here, another one to make it worse. How much I wish you were here to brighten up the table. It's not the same without you anymore, nothing is. I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving with Jesus this year. I'll love you always and miss you so. What it meant to lose you, noone will ever know. I Love You Uncle Chuckles! Bigger than the Sky "foreber and eber". Miss you.

Bubby,
Your first nephew is finally here. He has those beautiful blue eyes. You'd be so proud! How we all wish you were here to experience this with us. We all miss you so badly. Please keep watch over Daddy and Buck while they're hunting this week. I Love You Bigger than the Sky "Foreber and eber" and I miss you like crazy. Please keep watching over us and protecting us, our guardian angel. All my Love.

Well Chas, little Charlie is almost here. Your first nephew. I'm praying he has his Uncle Charlie's smile, beautiful blue eyes and big loving heart. You're missed terribly, Son, but you already know that. I wonder many times why this had to be, but apparently God needed you more. We've had our times, both good and bad, but you'll always be my first son, no matter what. And it has been both a pleasure and an honor to have you in my life. I love you bigger than the sky, Charlie. You're in my heart for always!

Bubby,
I miss you so much. Even the happiest events have bittersweet emotions. It's not the same anymore. Baby Charlie will be here soon. It tears us up that you won't be here to hold your nephew. The holidays are coming up again. They make it soo much harder to deal with losing you. They say time makes all wounds heal, its not true at all. It feels like yesterday. Its been over 2 years and the wound still feels as fresh. I'm so lost without you. Please keep watch over all of us and keep us all safe, our Guardian Angel. You've been doin a good job. I Love You Bigger than the Sky with all my heart forever and always. Best Buddies "foreber and eber". I miss you Big Guy!
