ReplyDeleteTo the loving parents of Dillard Persinger,
ReplyDeleteYour son was very special. Not in a way that means he is dumb because he’s not. He must have had the most outgoing characteristics. Whenever you are down think about it like this: “ He must have been so brave snd caring that he felt he had to do what he can to help his baby and wife/girlfriend, family, and friends”. I know death can be really hard. I lost my cousins in 2001 and 2002. They were everything to me. Don’t get down on yourself because I know he wouldn’t want you to do that. He would want you(this goes out to his wife/girlfriend) to take care of his child and let the love for him live on. To his parents he loves you sooo much. He doesn’t want to look down from heaven and see that you are constantly in pain. You just gotta think to yourself that “I didn’t cause this.” BECAUSE YOU DIDN’T! THIS WAS NOT YOUR FAULT! Just keep that love that you have for him going strong and never let anyone doubt their love for them!!
You will be in my prayers and I hope you see through this tough spot!
To the baby……
YOUR DADDY LOVED YOU VERY MUCH! He will always be in your heart and over your head watching down on you.
You have my Love,
Brittany R.
To the family of Cory Davis,
ReplyDeleteI’m sorry about your lost. It has been a year since my cousin almost lost her cousin in that accident. It is really hard to deal with lost ones. Cory lived a short life that is very valuable. It is going to be a tough process through everything but im sure you guys are strong, and can make it through.
I know what it is like to lose some one you love. Back in 2009 I lost my grandma. She was the one person I could talk to. Now she has been gone for a little over two years. It hurts I know but you cant just hide from the world like I did a year after her death. When it comes to the anniversary I just pray to GOD to watch over me. Don’t hide from the world, remember your loved one, but move on with your life. He would want the best for you.
“Nothing I say can fill the hole they leave in your hearts; the absence they leave in your lives. If any comfort can be found, it can, perhaps, be found by seeking the face of God, who quiets our troubled minds, mends our broken hearts, and eases our mourning souls.” States President Obama.
Just remember things are going to happen. Some when we least expect it. Do your best to keep control and keep your head up.
Sorry about your lost one,
Emily Renee

Dear Family of Roosevelt Lynch,
ReplyDeleteI am very sorry to hear about your loss. I had a friend in the coal mines that died. His name was Adam. I just wanted to let you know that you guys are always in my thoughts and prayers. I wish you the best. Those people who died at Upper Branch were people who are going to make a difference in our lives. I honor Roosevelt Lynch even though I don’t know him. But at least he was trying to help his family and make a living. I do wish you my thoughts and prayers.
Your Friend,
Laci ♥♥ =)

Dear The Harrah’s
ReplyDeleteI’m very sorry about you lost. I didn’t know him, but I bet he was a great man. I know his wife Mrs. Harrah. Well I don’t know her first name, but I do know her. I know what it feels like to loose someone very special to you. I lost my step- dad when I was 6. It was very painful. He was like my real dad. My real dad walked out of me when I was 5 months old. I didn’t know he did because I was so young. Then my step-dad came into the picture. I did live Ohio, but then my dad was dying and he wanted to move back where he was born which in West Virginia. I lived in Weston for my the hole time my dad was a alive. Then he came down with COPD. I didn’t know what was wrong with him. All I knew about him is that he was sick. He got so tired and sick that he couldn’t get out of his chair one time. Then he was in ICU and I couldn’t see him. And I through a fit. Then my uncle took me home. The next morning my mom came home. I woke up and seen my mom in the kitchen. She told me that my dad died. I asked her if they could bring him back. So I feel your pain. I just want to pay my respect.
Sincerely,
